Dubai, UAE, 25 November, 2008: Canon Middle East has launched a new network-ready All-In-One in its latest PIXMA range, complete with premium print engine to offer exceptional performance and value for money. The PIXMA MP620 provides the perfect solution for those looking for superior print, scan and copy functionality - and with the added bonus of Wi-Fi and Ethernet, the whole family can make the most of its capabilities on a shared network.

Superior print performance

The PIXMA MP620 has quality at its core, from its streamlined look to wide-ranging functionality. Utilising Canon's enhanced ChromaLife100+ system, its FINE print head and outstanding 1pl, 9600dpi resolution allows it to offer grain-free photos
with impressively smooth gradations. Printing is fast, with the premium print
engine producing a print speed of approximately 41 seconds for a photolab-quality 10x15cm print.

Image quality benefits from the new-formulation Single Inks with increased colour gamut, more neutral blacks and vibrant reds. A combination of dye-based Cyan, Magenta and Yellow inks with both dye and pigment Black ink tanks give a superior photo quality as well as crisp text for document printing. The Single Ink tanks minimise ink wastage and unnecessary replacements.

Versatile feature set

The PIXMA MP620 is one of the most functional All-In-Ones available at this price point, as well as Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity it offers a number of other features designed to allow users to get the most from the device with the least hassle. With PictBridge, memory card slots for all popular card types and a sharp 6.2cm colour TFT display, the PIXMA MP620 makes the perfect device to act as both a standalone printer or can be used as part of a wireless network.

Ease of use is high on the agenda, and the combination of the large display and Easy-Scroll Wheel make getting to grips with the PIXMA MP620's advanced functions simple and fun. The bundled Easy-PhotoPrint EX software with Auto Photo Fix options make tasks like red-eye correction and image optimisation easy and intuitive. MP Navigator EX software also provides a similarly user-friendly application for the 2400dpi resolution scanner.
