Canon PIXMA MP520

$150.00 Released August, 2007

The Pros:Compact design takes up very little space on the desk. Setup is very simple, instructions are clear and guide you through everything as you go. Printed photos look as good as they might coming from a print lab.

The PIXMA MP520 is a general purpose all-in-one printer, scanner, copier from Canon. Primarily designed for a small amount of home/home office use due to its slow speed and small ink cartridges, the MP520 features an improved printing system from earlier models, dropping the two cartriage system for a faster, more complex 4-cartridge design.

With the same improved scanner the MP520 continues to have memory card support with a larger 2.0" LCD display for previewing and selecting photographs to print without the need for a PC. Like the majority of Canon models, the MP520 allows users to print directly from their digital cameras, regardless of brand, without the need for a PC. It also allows for oversized scanning.
