$5,026.00

The Canon imagePROGRAF TM-240 MFP Lm24 combines a compact 24″ large-format printer with an integrated Lm24 scanner, giving small offices, retail spaces, and classrooms basic scan-to-copy and scan-to-file capability alongside CAD and poster printing. Buffalo Imaging serves professional print shops and studios with the equipment and supplies they need to keep production moving.
Affordable, Entry-Level Scanning
The Lm24 scanner uses SingleSensor assembly technology for consistent color accuracy and detail, with full-width image capture that reduces the risk of misalignment compared to staggered CIS array scanners. ScanAppL software makes it easy to save scanned data directly to USB in TIFF, PDF, and JPEG formats. This is a more affordable, entry-level alternative to the higher-volume Z36 scanner system, built for users who don’t need advanced multifunction capability.
Same Print Engine as the TM-240
The MFP Lm24 shares the exact same 5-color LUCIA pigment ink system as the standalone Canon TM-240, including the newly formulated magenta ink for more brilliant red color reproduction. Color calibration keeps output consistent over time and across multiple TM Series devices.
Compact, Intuitive Design
A 4.3″ tiltable touchscreen on the printer, plus a dedicated 3″ touchscreen panel on the scanner, keep operation simple and intuitive. Automatic media detection, free-size borderless printing, and a quiet approximately 39 dB(A) operating volume make this well suited to shared office and retail environments.
Ink Cost Consideration
The TM-240 MFP Lm24 uses the same 55ml, non-upgradable ink cartridges as the standalone TM-240, sized for lighter, occasional printing. For higher-volume needs, the TM-250 series offers larger cartridges with better long-term cost per print.
Connectivity and Compatibility
The printer connects via USB, Ethernet, or Wi-Fi, with Apple AirPrint support. It’s compatible with Windows and macOS, and the scanner works with dedicated ScanAppL software for straightforward scan directory setup.

What is the Canon imagePROGRAF TM-240 MFP Lm24 used for?
The TM-240 MFP Lm24 combines a compact 24″ printer with an integrated scanner, used for printing and scanning CAD drawings, posters, and documents in small offices, retail spaces, and classrooms that need basic scan-to-copy or scan-to-file capability.
What is the best entry-level printer-scanner combo for a small office?
The TM-240 MFP Lm24 is built specifically for that use case, pairing a compact 24″ printer with an affordable Lm24 scanner designed for low-volume, entry-level scanning. Canon positions the Lm24 as the option for users who don’t need the higher-volume Z36 scanner system, making it a good fit for small offices with lighter scanning needs.
What’s the difference between the TM-240 MFP Lm24 and the standalone TM-240?
Both use the identical print engine: the same 5-color LUCIA pigment ink, print speed, and resolution. The MFP Lm24 adds an integrated Lm24 scanner with its own 3″ touchscreen, letting it scan and copy documents in addition to printing. If you only need printing, the standalone TM-240 is the simpler, lower-cost option.
How fast is the scanner on the TM-240 MFP Lm24?
The Lm24 scanner scans at 3 inches per second in monochrome. This is a modest, entry-level scan speed suited to occasional use, not high-volume scanning workflows.
Can I scan directly to USB with the TM-240 MFP Lm24?
Yes. Scanned documents can be saved directly to USB in TIFF, PDF, and JPEG formats using the included ScanAppL software.
How much ink does the TM-240 MFP Lm24 hold, and can it be upgraded?
It uses the same 55ml ink cartridges as the standalone TM-240, and this size cannot be upgraded to larger tanks. For higher-volume printing needs, models with larger cartridges will offer better long-term cost per print.
Is the Canon TM-240 MFP Lm24 the best printer-scanner combo for occasional CAD and document scanning?
It’s purpose-built for that use case: a compact 24″ print engine paired with a simple, affordable scanner for low-volume scan-to-copy and scan-to-file needs. Whether it’s the best fit depends on your scanning volume, but for occasional use in a small office or retail setting, it’s designed specifically for that combination.
What print head does the TM-240 MFP Lm24 use?
It uses the PF-06 print head, the same print head confirmed compatible across the TM-240, TM-240 MFP Lm24, TM-340, and TM-340 MFP Lm36.
What connectivity options does the TM-240 MFP Lm24 have?
USB, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi are all built in, along with Apple AirPrint support. It works with both Windows and macOS workflows.
Is the TM-240 MFP Lm24 environmentally certified?
Yes. It was the first printer in the imagePROGRAF TM Series to be EPEAT Gold registered, and it’s also ENERGY STAR certified, with polystyrene-free packaging.
