Wouldn’t it be great to be outside, sitting on the deck, watching the birds fly by while drafting a business proposal rather than be stuck at a desk, bound by printer wires? Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging, today announced the latest additions to the PIXMA Wireless1 Office All-in-One (AIO) series, the perfect remedy to ensure the view is not obstructed by a window shade. With added features ranging from sleek, stylish designs to improved functionality, these new models would be a great addition to any home office or expanding business looking to upgrade their equipment.
In addition, Canon U.S.A. is partnering with renowned organization and time management expert, Julie Morgenstern, to offer advice and tips on effectively utilizing PIXMA AIO printers to help balance work and home schedule demands. The addition of these new products further builds Canon’s commitment to providing quality and easy-to-use products which help improve overall workflow.
“Providing consumers with the necessary tools to help achieve the goals they have set out for their business is something Canon strives to do,” said Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice president and general manager, Consumer Imaging Group, Canon U.S.A. “We feel that these new PIXMA products will provide consumers with the means to complete their work in a quick and easy manner, while not sacrificing the professional quality they require.”
The Canon PIXMA MX870, MX350 and MX340 Wireless1 Office AIO printers come equipped to handle roughly any assignment. With an innovative design and the ability to print images and documents from almost anywhere, the printers can be set up in almost any part of the home office or small business environment. From printing large presentations outlining new business objectives to creating professional quality images of a family vacation, the Canon PIXMA Wireless Office AIO printers answer the needs of business during the day while helping preserve the family’s memorable moments at night.
Developed to help increase overall work productivity, the PIXMA Wireless Office AIO products feature a new and improved operation panel enabling users to perform basic functions by simply pressing the Mode key. Users can easily select an operation to perform and navigate through menus and functions easier than ever before. A new addition to these printers is the Auto Document Fix feature which simultaneously helps deliver easy-to-view scan results for easy sharing and repurposing while sharpening and blackening document text to increase readability. When scanning documents, such as magazines or newspapers, Auto Document Fix removes the background and the show through from the other side of the page making it easier to view.
The Auto Photo Fix II feature can be found on all the new models launched today as well. This feature helps correct common photo errors, such as underexposed images, helping users get the most out of them. Whether looking to enhance photos from a sunny family reunion or a dark auditorium from a child’s play, Auto Photo Fix II can assist with features such as Multi-Zone Exposure Correction, improvements in overall face detection, scene analysis, plus brightness and saturation correction. For Apple iPhone users, the Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX for iPhone (iEPP) application is available for free on the App Store and compatible with the new Wireless AIO printers allowing images to be printed quickly and easily shared with friends and family.
Included on each PIXMA Wireless Office AIO printer is the ability to print up to four separate documents on the front side of one page of paper helping to improve organization and decrease consumption. This eco-conscious feature helps to reduce paper usage by limiting unnecessary printing while also improving business processes by helping to decrease the amount of time it takes to prepare large presentations. Further adding to paper reduction is the Easy-WebPrint EX (Windows only)2 software which helps make printing documents from the Web amazingly simple. The included Auto Clip feature lets users select a specific part of a Web page to print rather than having to print the whole page, thus helping to further conserve paper.
With the emergence of cyber technology, it is more important than ever for businesses to be able to protect their documents and information from being compromised. Each of the new Wireless Office AIO printers can help protect PDF’s by restricting access to printing or editing files without the proper authorization to help keep those high-priority documents more secure.
