Melville, NY, Feb. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In our modern, hybrid-working world, small offices and busy households continually seek technology to assist in their productivity. Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, is pleased to announce eight new color laser printers and three new inkjet printer models, expanding the already extensive imageCLASS and PIXMA MegaTank product lines. The imageCLASS printers can help benefit small office and home office users who have a medium-high print volume for their business, and those who have limited working space but need a workhorse printer that is dependable day-in, day-out. The new PIXMA MegaTank printers can help home users who are looking for an attractive total cost of ownership.
Canon’s new laser printers offer a smaller footprint than previous models, meet ENERGY STAR® standards, and are designed to benefit environments ranging from medical offices, to media agencies, to real estate firms. The new models include both multifunction and print-only models, with speeds ranging up to 35 pages per minute.
The new imageCLASS models offer fast scan speeds, and faster first page out times when compared to competitors in the same class. Other key features of the products include:
- Superior Usability (MF750 Series, MF650 Series & LBP674Cdw)
- The new imageCLASS printers have a large, customizable, 5-inch touchscreen, and are designed for ease-of-use.
- Purchase Protection (MF750 Series, MF650 Series & LBP674Cdw)
- The imageCLASS printers have a three-year limited warranty1, designed to enhance peace of mind.
- Just-in-Time Toner Delivery
- Canon offers the optional Auto Replenishment Service2, which enables the printer as a smart device for just-in-time toner management, and can allow customers to save time by not having to place emergency toner replacement orders.
The color imageCLASS printers with the 5-inch touchscreen utilize Canon’s Application Library device platform, which provides the ability for frequently used applications and convenient functions to be registered as quick buttons on the home screen for user convenience. The new models build upon the platform capabilities of Canon’s imageCLASS predecessors by adding features such as:
- Cloud Connect (Scan and Print)3
- Cloud-based printing and scanning directly from the printer’s 5-inch color touchscreen. Users can print documents directly from Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive accounts, or scan images and documents directly to these services.
- Simple Wi-Fi® Network Setup Process
- Connecting to a Wi-Fi network is much easier than in the past.4
The new PIXMA MegaTank G-Series includes the G3270 (wireless/print/copy/scan) all-in-one printer, which is available in white or black, the G2270 (print/copy/scan) all-in-one printer, and the G1230 (print) printer. Users who can benefit from the MegaTank printers are parents who need to print a large number of documents at home for their children’s homework and school projects, and high school and college students who need access to print assignments, photos and more, and who want to save money on purchasing ink cartridges5. Features of the new PIXMA MegaTank models include:
- Fast Print Times
- The inkjet printers boast a print speed of approximately 11 images per minute (IPM) in black6, and approximately 6 IPM in color6.
- Built to Manage Larger Workloads
- They can produce approximately 7,700 sheets7 in color and approximately 6,000 sheets in black ink7.
- User-Maintainable
- Users can easily replace the maintenance cartridge and the print head (replacements sold separately) to assist with printer longevity.
A one-year limited warranty8 comes standard, and the printers are environmentally conscious, having been certified as meeting the ENERGY STAR® energy efficiency criteria.9 Additionally, they feature a small footprint, making it easy and convenient to place them in a compact space. The PIXMA MegaTank G3270 printer has Wi-Fi connectivity, and a 1.35” inch LCD mono panel, which is an improvement from its predecessors.
The Canon PIXMA MegaTank and Color imageCLASS printers are also compatible with PosterArtist Online10 a design software that allows all levels of users to create professional-looking posters, banners and signage. Retail, hospitals and hospitality are examples of environments that can benefit from PosterArtist software by creating eye-catching marketing materials.

1Limited Warranty is effective for three (3) years from date of original purchase. Warranty program is subject to certain conditions and restrictions.
2See website for more details.
3Supported by all new imageCLASS multifunction printers, and LBP674Cdw (print only). Subscription to a third party cloud service required. Subject to third party cloud service provider terms and conditions.
4Wireless printing and scanning requires a working network with wireless 802.11b/g/n capability, operating at 2.4GHz or 5.0GHz. Wireless performance may vary based on terrain and distance between the printer and wireless network client.
5Page yield of included ink bottles used for initial setup is lower than the replacement ink bottles, as a certain amount of ink is consumed to fill into the print head during setup (charging the print head initially). Page yield is the estimated value based on Canon individual test method using the ISO/IEC 24712 chart and continuous printing simulation with the replacement ink bottles after initial setup. Page yield of color inks is an average yield of cyan, magenta and yellow inks combined. Page yield varies significantly depending on content printed, ink levels maintained in all four reservoirs, and other factors. Up to 6,000 (black)/7,700 (color) printed page yields are approximate using 'default printing mode', up to 8,300 (black)/7,700 (color) printed page yields are approximate using 'economy printing mode' via Windows/Mac OS driver or printer copy setting, based off document pages printed. A full set of MegaTank GI-20 ink bottles (pigment black, cyan, magenta, yellow) is equivalent to 30 standard capacity ink cartridge sets (PG-245 Black Ink Cartridge and CL-246 Color Ink Cartridges - cyan, magenta, yellow) based on print yield. Ink value savings based on MSRP (USD) of stated equivalent ink cartridge sets as of September 2022.
6Document print speeds are the averages of ESAT in Office Category Test for the default simplex mode, ISO/IEC 24734. Print speed may vary depending on system configuration, interface, software, document complexity, print mode, page coverage, type of paper used etc. See www.usa.canon.com/ipm for additional details.
7Page yield of color inks is an average yield of cyan, magenta and yellow combined. Page yield of included ink bottles used for initial setup is lower than the replacement ink bottles, as a certain amount of ink is consumed into fill into the print head during setup (charging the print head initially). Actual page yield will vary significantly depending on content printed, ink levels maintained in all four reservoirs, and other factors. Page yield is the estimated value based on Canon individual test method using the ISO/IEC 24712 and ISO/IEC 19752 charts and continuous printing simulation with the full set of replacement ink bottles after initial setup.
