Key Advantages

The PIXMA MG5520 offers high-resolution printing that delivers sharp and detailed images and text. Its individual ink system reduces wastage as only the depleted color needs replacement. Wireless connectivity provides flexible placement and ease of use across multiple devices. The automatic duplex printing feature saves paper and increases productivity. A compact and stylish design fits well in office environments without occupying much desk space. The integrated LCD screen improves user experience through simple operation and quick access to functions.

Limitations

Print speeds are moderate and may not satisfy high-volume printing demands, with typical documents taking around 8.7 ppm for black and white and 5 ppm for color. The printer does not feature advanced networking options like Ethernet, relying solely on Wi-Fi connectivity. It lacks support for mobile cloud printing services native to newer models. The scanner resolution is adequate but may not meet professional standards requiring higher optical scans. The device's paper capacity is limited to a rear feed tray holding approximately 100 sheets. Firmware updates are infrequent, which might affect compatibility with newer operating systems over time.
