Key Advantages
The Canon PIXMA MG3122 provides an economical all-in-one solution for home users requiring print, scan, and copy functions. Its compact footprint allows it to fit neatly on a desktop or small office desk. The hybrid ink system produces clear text and vibrant images with good color fidelity. Print resolutions up to 4800 x 600 dpi deliver detailed prints and smooth photo output. The intuitive user interface with basic buttons makes operation straightforward. It is compatible with various Canon photo papers enhancing print quality for pictures.
Limitations
The MG3122 lacks wireless connectivity, limiting flexibility in device locations and mobile printing options. It only supports USB 2.0 connectivity, requiring physical cable connection to a computer. Print speeds are relatively slow compared to higher-end models, especially for color photos. The absence of an automatic document feeder restricts productivity for scanning or copying multi-page documents. Black ink is pigment-based but color inks are dye-based, which may affect durability against water or fading. The printer does not support duplex (double-sided) printing, requiring manual page flipping.
