Canon has announced the launch of three new affordable All-In-One models ideal for the home office environment; the PIXMA MX375, PIXMA MX435 and PIXMA MX515. Replacing the PIXMA MX360, PIXMA MX410 and PIXMA MX420, the new compact models feature Wi-Fi connectivity[i] for easy scanning, copying, faxing and printing, fast printing speeds and new XL cartridges for reduced printing costs. The PIXMA MX515 also features a Dual Function Panel, 6.2cm colour TFT display and Auto Duplex printing.
Connected Devices
The new MX435 and MX515 printers include a number of connectivity options to offer users greater flexibility in terms of where and how they print. Built-in Wi-Fi means that documents and photos can be printed from anywhere covered by a wireless network. AirPrint is supported, enabling direct printing from iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. AirPrint allows users to wirelessly print photos, e-mails, Web pages and other documents without the need to install device drivers, saving time and enabling a seamless user experience. An Ethernet connection on the MX515, also makes it possible to share the print and scanning functionalities of the printer with multiple PCs.
Impressive Printing, Copying and Scanning
The new models boast fast photo and document printing speeds with the MX435 and MX515 delivering enhanced ISO speeds of approximately 9.7ipm mono and 5.5ipm colour. They can also produce ISO A4 copy speeds of 21seconds. The MX375 delivers ISO speeds of approx. 8.7ipm mono and 5.0ipm colour and ISO A4 copy speeds of 23 seconds. All three new models come with fully integrated Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) for easy copying, scanning and faxing of multiple-page jobs, whilst Super G3 high-speed fax provides the option to save to USB. The MX515 can save straight to memory cards through the built-in card slots as well as offering the ability to turn documents into PDF files and save to a PC.
Enhanced Functionality and Smart Design
The new PIXMA MX models feature a compact, FastFront design. This allows paper and ink cartridges to be loaded into the front of the printer, so it can be placed against a wall or on a shelf, saving valuable space. The new XL FINE colour ink cartridges, which can be installed in one easy click, offer 50% lower cost per page[ii], allowing users to print more for less. Quick Start also ensures the new MX products power up quickly for on-demand printing.
A 6.2cm colour TFT display on the MX515 allows photos to be previewed straight from the memory card slots making it easy to see which functions are being selected. This model also features a Dual Function Panel which displays only the keys needed, depending on the function being performed, for greater ease of use.
Smart Software
The new PIXMA MX models also come with a range of software solutions for smart printing that will appeal to consumers looking for the very latest features, whether that's printing from the web, eco functions or getting creative with photography and HD Movies.
The MX515 includes ECO Settings software, a new addition to Canon's Solution Menu EX, which monitors how much paper and CO2 is being saved through Auto Duplex printing.
Smart and easy web printing is enabled through Easy-WebPrint EX[iii] for printing web pages exactly as required with no paper or ink waste. The intuitive software means multiple web pages can be combined and printed on one page using Auto Clip or the one click fit-to-page option, allowing for intelligent printing from the web.
Easy-PhotoPrint EX software enables users to impress friends and family and get creative with some of their content printing photos, calendars and albums. With new Fun Filter Effect, artistic image effects can be applied to prints including Blur Background, Fish-eye, Soft Focus, Miniature and Toy Camera.
HD Movie stills can be captured and printed from full HD video footage shot on Canon's range of Digital SLRs or Canon Digital Still Cameras. Other creative tools include Merge Frames which combines multiple images to give a sense of motion and Layout Print, which turns a small movie clip into a comic-strip effect storyboard.
