Canon Philippines recently launched four new refillable ink tank printers for its PIXMA Ink Efficient G series lineup. The PIXMA G4770, G3730, G2730 and G1730, all are compatible with low-cost ink bottles that allow users to buy and print according to their actual printing needs and are designed to maximize productivity with high print yields and affordable printing for smooth operation for home and small offices.
The new PIXMA ink-efficient printers are cost-effective solutions for high-volume printing. The improved Economy mode enables the new G series to produce even more printouts from a single set of ink, yielding up to 7,600 pages for monochrome documents and 8,100 pages for color documents. The high precision print heads on the new printers deliver crisp black text and vibrant prints that meet a wide variety of needs, from text-heavy essays to craft templates.
In addition to their cost-effectiveness, the new Canon G series printers offer easy maintenance for minimal downtime. Similar with the latest Canon refillable ink tank printers, these feature a removable maintenance cartridge that can be replaced easily by users. This feature helps minimize downtime and keep productivity high.
PIXMA G4770 is a print, scan, copy and fax machine with a capable 35-sheet capacity automatic document feeder design. It is ideal for families who find scanning documents with mobile phone apps inadequate, or home offices with multi-page documents to digitize. The new low-cost ink refill bottles also give users the option to purchase ink supplies based on their anticipated print volume.
For moderate print volumes, users can now opt for low-cost ink refill bottles that deliver up to 3,900 pages for black-and-white documents and 4,600 pages for color documents. Users with very high print volumes can also opt for standard ink bottles that deliver up to 7,600 pages for black-and-white documents and 8,100 pages for color documents, significantly reducing the need for frequent ink tank refills. High precision print heads deliver crisp and sharp text, utilizing a hybrid pigment black and dye color ink system to ensure quality prints for general documents, which includes text-heavy essays and photo printing needs such as borderless A4 photos.
The new Canon G series printers also feature user-replaceable maintenance cartridges that can easily be purchased off the shelves. Replacement is easy, without complex steps, so users can save a trip to the service center. The PIXMA G3730 and G2730 multifunction printers offer improved ease of use for print, copy and scan functions, designed to boost productivity at home and home offices. The PIXMA G3730 features wireless connectivity and supports mobile printing and scanning with smart devices on a local network or to cloud services, offering wireless mobility and flexibility.
For students and home users who need a compact and simple printer that meets basic printing needs, the print-only PIXMA G1730 is the ideal choice. With the intuitive Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app, users can set up the printers wirelessly and enjoy a smooth and seamless connection. They can print, copy and scan effortlessly from mobile devices, check printer status and ink levels, and connect to the cloud for more flexible control.
The Easy-PhotoPrint Editor app makes printing simple and is perfect for business or personal use, offering ready-to-use templates, photo layouts, postcards, collages, calendars, photo IDs, and even business cards can be created in minutes. The app is available for iOS, Android OS, Windows and macOS.
