Multiple Connectivity Options Make For Easy Printing of Important Documents When Needed
LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., March 6, 2012 – Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced the PIXMA MX892 Wireless1
Office All-In-One (AIO) printer as the flagship model in the
award-winning family of Canon PIXMA office printers. Designed with the
home office user in mind, this print, copy, scan and fax machine has a
variety of connectivity options for easy printing of documents and
images from the cloud and other compatible portable devices. The
addition of this new model to the Canon PIXMA Office AIO printer lineup
helps continue the tradition of providing users with high-quality
results and versatility to help increase productivity.
Canon has designed the PIXMA MX892 Wireless Office AIO
printer to help home-office users easily access and print materials
through utilities such as Google Cloud Print2 and PIXMA Cloud
Link. Google Cloud Print will enable Gmail messages, file attachments
and select Google Docs to be sent to the printer for printing from any
computer, tablet, or smart phone. For those registered with Google's
PicasaWeb Albums3, there is PIXMA Cloud Link so users can
print photos directly from their online albums. The printer also
provides direct access to a wide range of printable templates, such as
stationary and calendars, so photographers can get creative with their
images.
Adding to the printer's connectivity options is the Canon
Easy-PhotoPrint (EPP) mobile app, for use with compatible Apple and
Android smart phones and tablets, where documents can be scanned on the
printer and sent to the device. Users can also print PDFs of documents
that were created with the app directly from these devices4.
The Canon PIXMA MX892 Wireless Office AIO printer will also have 802.11n
wireless capability allowing for a high-speed network transfer rate and
easy sharing on a network. Setting up a wireless network for multiple
users to quickly share information can be accomplished with the press of
one button when using Wireless Protected Setup (WPS). An Ethernet port
has also been included as an alternative when wireless is not available,
allowing for a hard line connection for easy sharing with multiple
users as well. Canon U.S.A. offers its award-winning service and support
online for all of its users looking to set up any of the new wireless
products at www.usa.canon.com/wirelesshelp. Here, customers have access to video tutorials and manuals to assist in setting up a wireless printer.
"With users increasingly utilizing the cloud to store important
documents and images, it is imperative to provide an easy way for these
materials to be printed easily when they are needed ," said Yuichi
Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Imaging
Technologies & Communications Group, Canon U.S.A. "The variety of
connectivity options supported by the PIXMA MX892 Office All-in-One
printer allows the flexibility to do just that, and provides the users
with the comfort of knowing that the end result will be high-quality."
Productivity at its Best
The Canon PIXMA MX892 Wireless Office AIO printer utilizes the ChromaLife 100+ system5
with five individual ink tanks producing superb quality for
presentations and memorable images at a maximum color resolution of 9600
x 2400 dpi6. When the latest task includes creating a family
photo album, the printer allows you to easily view images on the 3-inch
LCD screen and can generate a 4" x 6" borderless photo7 in approximately 20 seconds8.
The scanner capabilities feature an incredible resolution of 2400 x
4800 dpi to help ensure the duplicate copy will be equivalent to the
original. Further adding to the functionality of the machine, is the
capacity to provide print output at approximately 12.5 images per minute
(ipm) for black-and-white documents and approximately 9.3 ipm for color9.
A major concern for home office users is being able to scan oversized
documents to be distributed at important meetings. With the Canon
exposed user interface, scanning or copying of large sized documents can
be accomplished without interfering with any buttons needed to perform a
task. Further adding to productivity is the Dual Function Panel, which
makes navigating through menus and functions a very smooth process. When
switching between the fax function and either print, copy or scan
functions, the keypad will switch from the standard numbers to a
directional keypad thus making the printer look sleek, clean and easy to
use.
The Canon PIXMA MX892 Wireless Office AIO printer comes with
additional features which can help increase productivity and conserve
paper usage. With Advanced Media Handling capabilities such as a 35
sheet Duplex Auto Document Feeder that allows for quick two-sided
copying and scanning in addition to Auto Duplex printing, users can
perform other tasks while the printer handles the bulk of the workload.
The printer also has two paper feeds which can hold a maximum of 150
sheets of plain paper each, helping ensure paper will not run out
unexpectedly while working. With the two paper feeds, there is the
option to load one tray with standard paper and the other with specialty
paper so the user will not have to re-load when changing types of print
jobs and save time.

software is available for this feature-packed printer with a variety of
fun filter effects such as Fish-Eye, Miniature, Toy Camera, Soft Focus
