Keypoint Intelligence recognises Canon with BLI 2022 A3 Line of the Year Award and the BLI 2022-2024 Most Reliable A3 Brand Award

Canon also awarded six individual BLI Winter 2022 A3 Pick Awards

Auckland, NEW ZEALAND – 9 February 2022: Canon is today celebrating the recognition of its A3 Line¹ of Multifunction Printers (MFPs), winning the coveted Buyers Lab (BLI) 2022 A3 Line of the Year Award. Given once a year, this award from Keypoint Intelligence² recognises the product line as being the best overall based on rigorous lab evaluations. Additionally, Canon has been awarded the BLI 2022-2024 Most Reliable A3 Brand Award and six individual BLI Winter 2022 A3 Pick Awards for its A3 Line³.

To determine the A3 Line of the Year Award recipient, Keypoint Intelligence considers current MFPs in the company’s portfolio that have been submitted for lab testing. To judge the overall quality of the line, analysts look at the overall rating a device received after testing, as well as the ratings in many key areas, including reliability and usability.

Commenting on the win, Pete Emory, Director of Research & Lab Services US/Asia at Keypoint Intelligence said, “Canon has assembled an excellent lineup of A3 MFPs that deliver exceptional performance and have the same well-designed touchscreen that boosts productivity even more. Not only has Canon won big with multiple BLI Winter 2022 A3 Pick Awards and this BLI 2022 A3 Line of Year Award, the company completed the incredible hat trick by earning the BLI 2022-2024 Most Reliable A3 Brand Award—all during this same awards cycle. It is clear that Canon has an A3 MFP for any customer, and it is also clear that users can rely on Canon A3 MFPs to get the job done accurately and efficiently.”

Canon New Zealand's Chris Maclean, General Manager of Business Information Solutions, says Canon is thrilled to receive the BLI 2022-2024 Most Reliable A3 Brand Award from Keypoint Intelligence, an acknowledgement which extends across three years, commenting: “We are incredibly honoured Canon has won this award in addition to the BLI 2022 A3 Line of the Year and six BLI Winter 2022 A3 Pick Awards. Acknowledging the rigorous testing Keypoint Intelligence conducts on products, these accolades are a real testament to the robustness, functionality and productivity that our A3 Line of multifunction printers offer. Combined with our local service offering for businesses, we can ensure our customers have the freedom to focus on running their business rather than their printers."
