Key Advantages
The PIXMA MG6420's wireless capabilities allow for convenient printing from multiple devices without the need for cables. The 5-color ink system provides superior photo printing quality with rich, vibrant colors. Its high resolution of up to 9600 x 2400 dpi ensures sharp and professional-grade output, both for photos and documents. The 3.5-inch touchscreen LCD improves user experience with easy menu access and settings adjustment. Compatibility with mobile printing services like Apple AirPrint and Google Cloud Print enhances flexibility and ease of use. Automatic duplex printing saves paper and supports eco-friendly office practices, increasing overall efficiency.
Limitations
The printer does not support Ethernet wired networking, limiting network connection options to wireless only. Print speeds are moderate compared to some laser printers, especially for large volume document printing. Paper handling capacity is relatively small, with a standard input tray holding up to approximately 100 sheets. The scanner lacks an automatic document feeder which limits productivity in scanning multiple pages. It relies on dye-based inks which can be more expensive over time and may not offer the same longevity as pigment inks. The device may have limited compatibility with newer operating systems as it is an older model released in 2012.
