Limitations
Despite its professional performance, the PIXMA Pro9000 MARK II lacks wireless connectivity options, limiting modern networking flexibility.

The printer is relatively bulky and heavy, requiring significant space in office or studio setups. Driver and software updates have become infrequent, which may pose compatibility challenges with newer operating systems. The absence of automatic duplex printing means manual handling is required for double-sided prints.
