Overview

The Canon Pixma MG2120 is a multifunction inkjet printer designed primarily for small office and home office environments. It supports printing, scanning, and copying functionalities within a compact footprint. The device utilizes Canon's FINE (Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) print head technology which allows for high-quality output with a maximum color resolution of 4800 x 1200 dpi. It uses a four-color (CMYK) ink system that delivers vibrant photo prints and sharp text documents. The printer supports USB 2.0 connectivity to interface with Windows and Mac operating systems. It is designed for an input paper capacity of up to 100 sheets, supporting various media types including plain paper, photo paper, and envelopes.

Scanning is achieved via a flatbed CIS (Contact Image Sensor) scanner, capable of optical resolution up to 600 x 1200 dpi, suitable for both color and grayscale scanning. The printer driver includes support for various printing modes optimized for text, photo, and economy printing. The Canon MG2120 series also supports PictBridge for direct photo printing from compatible digital cameras.

Key Advantages

The Canon Pixma MG2120 offers high-resolution printing up to 4800 x 1200 dpi, delivering clear and vivid images. Its multifunction capabilities reduce the need for multiple devices, saving desk space and cost. The compact and lightweight design makes it easy to fit into a variety of office setups. It is energy-efficient with an ENERGY STAR qualification, helping reduce power consumption. The USB 2.0 interface ensures reliable and fast communication with the host devices. Additionally, the device supports a wide range of paper sizes and types for versatile document and photo printing.

Limitations

The Canon MG2120 lacks wireless connectivity such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, limiting its use to direct USB connections. It has a relatively low paper input capacity compared to larger office printers which can impact productivity in high-volume environments. The print speed is moderate, with up to 7.7 images per minute (ipm) for black-and-white documents and 4.0 ipm for color prints, which may not satisfy users with heavy printing needs. The device does not support duplex (double-sided) printing, requiring manual paper handling for two-sided documents. It uses separate color cartridges which could increase running costs over time. The scanner's optical resolution might be insufficient for professional-grade image scanning tasks.
