Canon Pixma MX340

The Canon Pixma MX340 color inkjet multifunction printer (with print, scan, copy, and fax capabilities) looks like a bargain ($100 as of June 1, 2010) until you factor in its pricey inks. If you don't print much, however, this machine offers just...

Wi-Fi connectivity ; Low purchase price

Color scans tend to be dark ; Black ink is expensive

Speed and print quality are decent, but the pricey black ink limits this unit to low-volume home use.

Review: Canon Pixma MX340 multifunction device

Speed and print quality are decent, but the pricey black ink limits this multifunction device to low-volume home use.

The Pixma MX340’s two standout features are Wi-Fi connectivity, which requires a temporary USB connection during setup but is otherwise painless; and a 30-sheet automatic document feeder. The configuration also includes a letter-size flatbed scanner; a...

Canon Pixma MX340 All-in-One Printer

The Canon inkjet MX340 handles scanning jobs quickly, and replacing paper is a cinch. However, there's a delay between copies and it's somewhat loud during use. Features include: document feeder, borderless printing, and Bluetooth. canon.com.

Canon Pixma MX340 review

Canon has consistently impressed us with the quality of its recent MFPs, but they haven't had much appeal for the budget conscious, with most of current models priced at over £100.

The MX340 does everything, but its print costs make it unsuitable for high-volume printing.

Canon Pixma MX340 review

If you don't print much, however, the Canon Pixma MX340 offers just enough of everything else to enable a small or home office to get by.

The Canon Pixma MX340 does everything needed of an MFP, at a bare-bones level - and at a very low entry price. But if you do a lot of printing, you'll be better off in the long run with a model whose inks are more affordable.
