Canon PIXMA MG5450 AIO Photo Printer With Pigment And Dye-Based Black Inks

Canon PIXMA MG5450 AIO Photo Printer
The Canon PIXMA MG5450 AIO Photo printer is a low-profile printing buddy for home use. It's basically an essential machine for photo printing, especially if you want to print images on printable CD/DVD discs. Considering that it's an all-in-one device, however it doesn't support fax functionality nor an ADF (Automatic-Document-Feeder).

Just like its predecessors, the MG5450 adopts the glossy black matte finish, office-style aesthetics which is somehow common from the PIXMA family. Its design is partly different from the previous models from its range, especially its flatbed for scanning purposes. This printer features a full-color LCD screen display about 2.9 inch in size, with three keys below for menu navigation. The LCD is not a touchscreen though, with the ON and Home button at the left side of the front panel, while the other buttons like Black, Color, increase, reduce, 4-direction key are all at the right side.

Paper Handling Capacity
Its main input tray can hold a maximum of 125 plain paper sheets, supplemented with a photo paper tray for glossy medias. The output tray can be found just in front of the machine (the cover with the Canon logo)  which folds down and turns itself as an output tray. The MG5450 supports duplex (double-sided) printing which is considered as one of the printer's key-features.

Connectivity Interfaces
A high-speed USB cable host is included, as well as WiFi support for wireless printing. It features an easy access and stable connection between the machine and a PC or even to a tablet. Setup includes a pack of useful software from Canon such as My Image Garden and Creative Park Premium.

The PIXMA MG5450 offers a rated print speed of up to 15ppm (pages-per-minute) in mono and 10ppm in full-colour printing. Well, if you want a really fast inkjet printer that runs the same like a laserjet, you may consider the HP Officejet Pro Black and White 3610 and 3620 AIO Printers, they're also inkjet printers but with comparable speed like lasers. These two printers can only print monochrome documents, and require black HP inkjet cartridges alone.

It uses five Canon ink cartridges which consist of the standard CYM colors, plus a pigment-based and dye-based black ink tanks. Canon MG5450's consumables are all available in both standard and high-capacity cartridges.
