The Canon PIXMA G4780 is a modern A4 all-in-one (print, scan, copy, and fax) Ink Tank printer, designed for homes and small offices with moderate to high printing volumes. It's part of Canon's MegaTank series, known for its refillable ink tanks that offer high page yields and low running costs.
Here's a detailed breakdown of its features, specifications, and what makes it stand out:
Key Features and Benefits:
4-in-1 Multifunctionality: It handles all essential office tasks: printing, scanning, copying, and faxing.
Refillable Ink Tank System (MegaTank): This is the core appeal. Instead of expensive cartridges, it uses large, visible ink tanks that are refilled using inexpensive ink bottles. This significantly lowers the cost per page.
Uses GI-71 series ink bottles (PGBK for pigment black, C/M/Y for dye-based colors). There are also optional GI-71S ink bottles for even lower initial cost but lower yield.
High Page Yields: Offers impressive page yields from a single set of ink bottles:
GI-71 PGBK (Black): Up to 6,000 pages (or 7,600 pages in Economy Mode)
GI-71 C/M/Y (Colour Composite): Up to 7,700 pages (or 8,100 pages in Economy Mode) These yields make it very economical for frequent printing.
Automatic Duplex Printing: Automatically prints on both sides of the paper (A4, LTR), saving paper and time.
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF): Equipped with a 35-sheet ADF, which allows for convenient scanning and copying of multi-page documents without manual page feeding.
Wireless Connectivity: Features Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, AirPrint, and Mopria Print Service, enabling seamless printing from smartphones, tablets, laptops, and cloud services without needing a direct wired connection.
2.7-inch Colour LCD Touchscreen: Provides an intuitive and easy-to-use interface for navigating settings, initiating tasks, and checking printer status. You can customize settings for quick access to frequently used features.
High Print Resolution: Capable of printing at up to 4,800 x 1,200 dpi, ensuring sharp text and vibrant color photos.
Mixed Ink System:
Pigment Black (PGBK): Produces crisp, sharp text that is resistant to smudges and water, ideal for documents.
Dye-based Colours (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow): Deliver vibrant and rich colors, excellent for photos and graphics.
Compact Design: Designed to be space-saving, fitting well into home offices or small business setups.
