Duplexer for printing on both sides of a page. Ethernet connection. Good paper handling, with three paper trays

Can't load both letter- and tabloid-size at once to switch between them easily

The Canon Pixma iX7000 Inkjet Business Printer is a spot on fit for offices with an occasional need to print at tabloid (11- by 17-inch) size.

Prints up to 13 inches by 19 inches, good print quality, ethernet port for network sharing, auto duplexer for two-sided printing

Mixed reviews for speed, resolution could be higher, user complaints about paper feed, networking and durability

Exceptional image quality on a variety of papers ; Fantastic high-capacity paper cassette ; Reasonable cost and easy on ink

Big and heavy ; No built-in Wi-Fi ; Slower than the competition

Print quality issues with matte media and A3 photos, frustrating paper input options, extremely big

Canon's PIXMA iX7000 offers A3+ printing and automatic duplexing, but lacks the simplicity and usability of cheaper printers. It prints slowly but its output on glossy media is fantastic thanks to the use of pigment-based ink technology.

Canon's PIXMA iX7000 A3 inkjet printer isn't the best option for producing business documents on matte media. Though automatic duplexing and ethernet connectivity are certainly handy, restrictions with media input as well as its print speeds and...

Good quality A4 prints ; Auto double-sided printing ; Low running cost

A bit expensive ; Average A3 print quality

The Canon Pixma iX7000 is a behemoth of a printer and doesn't come cheap. Restrictions with media input also hamper this printer a bit. But it offers reasonable print quality and performance.
