Key Advantages

The Canon Pixma TS3520 offers excellent wireless printing capability allowing remote printing from mobile devices using Canon's PRINT app, Apple AirPrint, and Mopria compatibility. It provides high-quality print resolution with vibrant colors and sharp text output, suitable for document and photo printing. The all-in-one functionality combines print, scan, and copy operations in a single compact device, saving both space and cost. It supports multiple media types and sizes, enhancing versatility for home and office tasks. The LCD display facilitates easy navigation through menus and settings without a computer. Energy-saving features include automatic power-off mode which reduces power consumption when idle.

Limitations

One limitation of the Pixma TS3520 is its relatively low paper input capacity at 60 sheets, which may require frequent refills during heavy usage. Printing speed may be modest compared to higher-end models, averaging about 7.7 ipm for black and 4 ipm for color prints, thus not ideal for large-volume printing tasks. It does not include automatic double-sided (duplex) printing, requiring manual intervention for double-sided documents. The printer relies on individual ink cartridges which can be costly to replace frequently, especially for color prints. The scanner uses CIS technology rather than CCD, which may be less effective for scanning thicker materials or achieving higher-depth color accuracy. Limited memory and processor speed may impact the handling of complex print jobs or multiple simultaneous print requests.
