Overview:

Canon MAXIFY GX4040
Print large volumes of high-quality business documents while making huge savings on CPP and TCO with this refillable and easy to use 4-in-1 MegaTank-equipped MAXIFY GX printer with ADF, Wi-Fi and Ethernet.

Brilliant productivity, best-in-class CPP and TCO
Cost per page (CPP) is the amount of money that it takes to print a single page. This is determined by dividing the cost of the ink by the page yield.

The total cost of ownership (TCO) is a calculation of what a printer would cost you based on the initial purchase cost of hardware plus the costs of ink over a fixed period.

Features:

Ultra-low running costs
Save over the printers lifetime thanks to cost effective refillable ink tanks that vastly reduce the total cost of ownership and cost per page. Boost page yield with Economy mode and print up to 1.5x more pages with the same amount of ink

Brilliant business-quality prints
Enjoy water-, friction- and marker-resistant, business-friendly prints with excellent readability, delivered quickly and in large volumes

Print more media in-house
Print flyers, banners and posters in-house thanks to compatibility with a wide variety of materials including magnetic and photo media, plus a new rear flat tray that supports thicker media and card

Print without pause
Print high volumes of documents without irritating paper reloads, thanks to a 100-sheet rear feed and a 250-sheet front cassette, windowed to make checking paper levels quick and easy. A 35-sheet ADF simplifies multipage document management

Small but mighty
Save vital space at home or in the office thanks to the printers compact footprint, whilst reducing the amount of plastic packaging means more of it can be easily recycled

Easy to use and maintain
Reduce downtime with the user-replaceable maintenance cartridge, easily accessible from the front of the printer. Colour-coded, spring-loaded ink caps mean refills are simple and mess-free

Compatible Apps and Software
Print documents, photos and more direct from your smart device with the free Canon PRINT app, or quickly design and print visually striking posters and flyers with PosterArtist. Use PIXMA Cloud Link to send scans to or print from popular cloud services including Dropbox, Google Drive and OneDrive.

Canon Easy-PhotoPrint Editor turns your favourite photos (from your device or cloud storage) into stylish, personalised gifts such as cards and calendars.

The simple to use Easy-Layout Editor allows you to freely arrange the layout of various documents before printing them. Ideal for printing images, posters, web pages and more.
