Canon PIXMA MX860 Wireless all-in-one PIXMA office printer

Wireless is only the beginning

Your documents, files, data, and photos come from a variety of sources. And that's precisely why the Canon PIXMA MX860 all-in-one printer offers you an incredibly wide range of options for connecting to your data sources. Topping the list is the MX860's wireless operability. A built-in wireless LAN lets you connect wirelessly to your home network for access to any wireless-enabled device in your home or office. You can also use the ethernet port to connect to a wired home network. Further, while Bluetooth compatibility lets you connect to other Bluetooth-enabled devices like cellular phones and personal media players (with separate BU-30 unit), a PictBridge interface allows for direct connection to digital cameras. A USB port allows for versatile, standardized connectivity, while support for an enormous array of memory cards completes the MX860's diverse connectivity offerings.

4 home-office needs . . . 1 machine

Whether you're maintaining a second office or running a small business from home, chances are you don't have a surplus of space for, let's say, a printer, a copier, a scanner, and a fax machine. Chances are, however, that you've got just enough space for Canon's wireless PIXMA MX860 all-in-one home office printer. A color printer serves up documents and photos at up to an incredible 9600 x 2400dpi resolution, while a built-in scanner uses a powerful CIS element to copy 2400 x 4800dpi images. Further, a copier function makes excellent copies thanks to Dual Color Gamut technology, which automatically optimizes your originals for high-fidelity copying. Finally, the fax-machine component can transmit black-and-white documents at up to 3-seconds per page with its 33.6Kbps modem, and sports a 250-page memory capacity. Make room for the MX860.

Advanced features, simple operation

If you're working from home, it's fair to say you're busy. Which means you need an all-in-one office machine that works just as hard as you do. Canon's PIXMA MX860 printer combines its all-in-one operation with a variety of advanced features that take all the hassle out of operation. A fully integrated automatic document feeder makes it easy to copy, scan, or fax multiple documents without having to load them one at a time. Auto Duplex printing makes it possible to print both sides of a page without the hassle of turning the page manually. While Auto Photo Fix automatically categorizes and optimizes your photos for great prints, a 2.5" color LCD screen lets you view, select, and edit your images without the need for a separate device. Finally, two-way paper feeding expands placement options.

Green times 5

The Canon MX860 comes to you with an ENERGY STAR qualification, signaling that this all-in-one printer meets strict U.S. government guidelines for energy-efficient operation. One of the ways the MX860 earns this rating is by employing a five-ink-cartridge system. Because each color of ink has its own tank, you don't have to change an entire multi-color cartridge when just one of the colors runs out. As a result, you conserve ink, reduce waste, and save money.
