Canon PIXMA MX392 Office AIO Inkjet Photo Printer

Canon PIXMA MX392 Office AIO Inkjet Photo Printer
A replacement and not an upgraded model, that's how you'll probably describe it when you see the Canon PIXMA MX392 Office AIO printer. Why did I say so? Comparing the previous model Canon PIXMA MX372 to this new one, the MX392, you'll notice not just a slight nor minimal differences, as both offers the same features. However the output quality breaks the tie between these two printer models.

Dedicated for office printing needs, the MX392 offers an automatic document feeder plus the it serves as a standalone fax machine and copier as well. Using it as a home printer can be too easy for this machine. Talking about multi-functionality, it can print and fax from a PC, as well as scan multi-page documents. Scan to a PC with its letter-sized flatbed that supports legal-sized scanning of pages and files.

It features a 30-page automatic-document-feeder (ADF), supplemented with a 100-sheet capacity input tray for plain paper with no duplexing feature. The MX392 is somehow limited to light-duty printing, and unfortunately it doesn't support networking features hence it can't be used as a shared printer. Having said that, if it leans more into office printing, maybe it fits well enough for a micro office.

Canon rated the printer at 8.7 ipm (images-per-minute) in mono, and 5.0 ipm in coloured printing. Borderless photo printing supports a print speed up to 46 seconds per single sheet of 4"x6" sized photo. The MX392 offers a maximum printing resolution of up to 4800 x 1200 color dpi for that vivid and high quality photo printout quality.

It doesn't feature an intuitive touchscreen, instead it only has a two-line LCD display, with clearly labeled buttons around it, including the numeric keypad on its right side. For the printer's Canon ink cartridges requirement, CL-241 color ink and PG-240 black ink are both available in standard and high-capacity page-yield. Try to check the market to see their price, I suggest not to be surprise as Canon ink cartridges and laser toner cartridges are still on the expensive bracket.

Overall, the Canon PIXMA MX392 Office All In One printer is best suited for micro offices that require low-level printing capacity, and considerably not in need of network printing. If you only print, say, a couple of pages each day, yet scanning , copying  and fax are also a daily requirement, this printer might be a good choice considering its price.
