The OEM announced a new MAXIFY GX MegaTank series printers for small offices and home offices as well as two new PIXMA printers.
Canon U.S.A., Inc. announced two new MAXIFY GX MegaTank Series printers: the Canon MAXIFY GX7020 and Canon MAXIFY GX6020 printers.
The MAXIFY series of MegaTank printers utilise a high-volume continuous ink supply system which may significantly reduce ink costs for colour printing, producing approximately 14,000 colour prints and approximately 6,000 black ink prints before needing to be refilled.
The four-coloured ink set is pigment based, which is well suited for business use as the printing does not smudge easily when using a highlighter since the ink is highly resistant to friction. The continuous ink supply system contributes to a low total cost of ownership and running costs of roughly two cents per colour print. Along with a small overall footprint that easily fits in almost any office environment, these printers are backed by a three-year limited warranty, giving consumers the peace of mind that they will be ready to work when needed most.
The MAXIFY GX7020?is a four-in-one (Print, Copy, Scan, Fax) printer capable of holding up to 600 sheets and auto-duplex scanning/copying. The MAXIFY GX6020 is a three-in-one (Print, Copy, Scan) printer that is compact in size, has a paper capacity of up to 350 sheets, includes two extra black ink bottles, and is capable of large-volume printing at a high-speed.
The Canon MAXIFY GX7020 and Canon MAXIFY GX6020 are anticipated to be available in April for an estimated retail price of $899.00 (€747) and $799.00 (€664), respectively.
