Canon Expands Their MAXIFY And imageCLASS Printers Lineup
This
new year Canon has expanded two of its printer lineup, the Canon MAXIFY and
imagCLASS lineups. Two new printer models have been added to both of the
printers' lineups, bombarding the customers with a lot more choices to get
confused with.
On
the inkjet side, the 4-in-1 Canon MAXIFY GX4020($499.00) printer that can
print, copy, scan, and fax is added. Not only that, a 3-in-1 Canon MAXIFY
printer, the GX3020($399.00), is also coming; however, it can only print, scan,
and copy; you won't get the faxing facility with it. These models make use of a
continuous ink delivery system, which can drastically cut ink costs by
employing high-volume ink bottles.
On the laser
printing side, you are sure to welcome the brand-new imageCLASS
MF264dw($229.00) and MF262dw($199.00) printers. They are standard 3-in-1
multifunction printers that add to Canon's portfolio of specialized
Black-and-white laser printers.
We

better know if this new-year gift Conon has bought is for you or not. You might
