Canon Expands its PIXMA Printer Lineup

Canon U.S.A. has expanded its PIXMA printer Line. New printers consist of the PIXMA MG7720, the PIXMA MG6800 series and the MG5700 series of Wireless Inkjet All-in-One (AIO) printers.

Canon claims each model can print high-quality photos and documents, connect to wireless networks more easily than before, and scan important documents for archiving purposes as well. Canon says their new inks provide deeper blacks and more vivid reds in photos and documents printed on plain paper than previously.

Other new features include the ability to print images directly from any Instagram feed, using the updated and improved Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY application and PIXMA Cloud Link. Canon’s Easy-PhotoPrint+ and Creative Park applications, available on smartphones and tablets allow users to share and edit individual photos using cloud technology as well. Documents can be printed from SlideShare and users can send scanned documents directly to OneNote®.

Canon also says it has improved the initial setup time. Printer drivers load approximately 30 percent faster with the PIXMA MG7720 printer. Scanned images and documents can be shared with the most popular online social media platforms and services, including Facebook®, Twitter®, Flickr®, Photobucket®, Dropbox®, Evernote®, Creative Park, Google Drive™ and Microsoft® OneDrive™. Each printer also supports Google Cloud Print™, for printing from Gmail™ and Google Docs™ on a compatible mobile device, and from the Google Chrome™ browser for Mac®, Windows®, Linux® and Chrome OS™ operating systems.

Yuichi Ishizuka (pictured), President and COO of Canon U.S.A., Inc is excited. He says, “These new PIXMA printer models, including a new flagship model, are ideal for anyone looking for a multi-purpose printer with simple, direct wireless capabilities for easy printing of photos and documents. With an improved start-up process, new ink cartridges, and an increase in compatible applications available making the printing experience more seamless, these printers cater to those that want to create high quality prints at home or on the go.”

The PIXMA MG7720 printer, which also includes the PIXMA Touch & Print feature that allows direct printing from compatible Android devices, along with the PIXMA MG6800 printer series, are the perfect creative tools for students who need to print on the go from just about anywhere using Canon Creative Park projects.
