Key Advantages

The PIXMA MP240 provides versatile functionality by integrating printing, scanning, and copying in one device, saving space and investment. High print resolution up to 4800 x 1200 dpi delivers quality photos and crisp text output. Easy USB connectivity ensures straightforward installation and use with most PCs. The compact and lightweight design suits small offices or home environments. Energy-efficient features help reduce power consumption during operation and standby modes. Lastly, the inclusion of Canon's FINE cartridges offers good ink efficiency and reliable print quality at an affordable cost.

Limitations

The PIXMA MP240 lacks wireless connectivity options such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, limiting network sharing capabilities. Print speed is relatively slow compared to modern inkjet or laser printers, making it less ideal for high volume printing environments. It uses a basic 2-color ink system which might not provide the same color fidelity as advanced multi-color inkjets. The flatbed scanner resolution is moderate and not suitable for professional-grade image scanning. The 100-sheet tray capacity can be insufficient for larger print jobs without frequent refilling. Additionally, it does not support duplex (double-sided) printing, requiring manual page flipping for double-sided documents.
