Canon PIXMA MG3260 Inkjet Multifunction Printer

Canon PIXMA MG3260 Inkjet Multifunction Printer
Canon seems to love upgrading, although I still haven't featured the previous version of today's featured printer but I'll try to work on it over the weekend as a follow up post. Anyway as I've said, Canon PIXMA MG3260 Inkjet Multifunction printer is the upgraded model of Canon MG3160. Since it's been updated, let's see how well-packed it is over the MG3160.

The Canon MG3260 features a single-digit color LED display which also serves as indicator for the number of copies, when using the printer as a standalone copier. Alongside the display are nine mounted buttons including the ON/OFF switch. It comes with a glossy black matte finish chassis, a quite typical aesthetic from PIXMA family. The WiFi blue LED indicator is installed on the lid of the front panel just below the red-color button.

One of its notable features include scanning, copying and borderless printing in A4-max sized documents. Supports automatic duplex printing that lets any home office or small-office environment to save time and money. Aside from the printer's high-speed USB interface that you can use to connect the device to a PC, it also has wireless network capability for scanning and printing over a WiFi network, or use your iOS enabled devices to send photos, email, web pages to your printer via Apple AirPrint app.

Canon's PIXMA MG3260 uses ink cartridges (PG640, CL641, PG640XL, CL641XL, PG640XXL) built with FINE print head technology. Top it up with its rated speed of up to 9.2 ipm (monocrome), 5 ipm (color), and 44 sec for A4-sized medias.If you're not much impressed with its speed, nor concern of wireless printing functionality, Canon still has the MG2260 to offer, actually these two models are identical in many ways especially their built.

Paper handling capacity was fairly low, its input tray can only hold 100 sheets of plain paper, which makes the printer more suitable for home use or micro offices. Scan and printout quality are more likely sufficient and at par to most of its competitor. But unless you're not into printing high resolution photos, the HP DeskJet 2510 All In One Color Inkjet Printer can offer a balance of quality and speed. Likewise, Brother HL-3170CDWcan be considerable choice, although this is an LED printer that requires laser toner cartridges instead of inks.

Along with the printer's included software, it also comes with Easy WebPrint EX, My Image Garden, MP Navigator EX, Easy PhotoPrint EX, and Canon Solutions. Canon EEP and Apple AirPrint can be downloaded from Apple Store for iOS devices, or Play Store for Android powered devices.

There are a lot of photo printers in the market closest to Canon MG3260's price, you can check out my recent posts and compare features over another. If you need an inexpensive printer with low running cost, and sports a good set of features, Canon PIXMA MG3260 Inkjet Multifunction printer is a good choice.
