The Pixma MX870 supports duplex scanning and printing
Pixma models have Wi-Fi and improved print and copy speeds
Canon has announced three new all-in-one printers designed for small or home office environments, boasting improved print and copy speeds plus Wi-Fi connectivity.
Available from March, the Pixma MX870, MX350 and MX340 are designed to be shared among a number of users for printing, faxing, scanning and copying.
All three have built-in Wi-Fi, which means that one of the multi-function devices can be accessed by a number of PCs, and users can print and scan wirelessly, Canon said.
Both the MX870 and MX350 have an Ethernet port in addition to Wi-Fi, plus a large 6.2cm TFT display for a clearer view of images and menus, while all three have a new and improved user interface.
Quick Start technology means that the new Pixma models can be used almost as soon as the power is switched on. A fully integrated auto document feeder enables users to scan, copy and fax documents quickly, and the MX870 additionally supports automatic duplex (two-sided) scanning and copying.
The MX350 and MX340 print at resolutions up to 4,800 x 1,200 dpi, while the MX870 supports a higher resolution of 9,600 x 2,400 dpi.
As the new models are also aimed at the home, all three can print photos directly from Bluetooth and PictBridge compatible devices, as well as from the Apple iPhone.
