Users can enjoy quicker and easier control with one simple pad made for multi-modes. A 2.5" color LCD display also allows clear display of image previews and printer operation information. The three new PIXMA printers also adopt a Smart Panel design that places all operation buttons on the printer’s top cover to ensure all control buttons and screen will not be blocked by large-size books when scanning or copying is in process. A more convenient control means enhanced work efficiency to the work place. Catering to the need of scanning or copying thick books, the printers also feature a liftable top cover that allows complete covering to effectively avoid light spillage and result in higher scan quality.

Seamless function sharing on printing, scanning or sending outgoing fax among multiple computers over a wireless network can be easily achieved to make the most out of the functions for enhanced productivity. The setup of Wi-Fi wireless network can be completed in just a few steps, making it easy even for first-time users. Users can also enjoy the flexibility of working from laptop and being accessible to the printer’s function with the wireless network. In addition, PIXMA MX517 is built-in with Ethernet which can help users without Wi-Fi to build up network setting. Quick and Easy - Fax and Scanned Document Direct Save to Memory Card/USB Drive PIXMA MX517 and MX437 provide direct save of in-coming fax to USB drive in PDF format. Without the need of a computer, this provides users with the convenience of centralizing fax handling. Users can also save a scanned document or photo as PDF or JPG file to USB drive directly for added convenience and streamlined workflow. PIXMA MX517 also features a built-in multi card slot that provides SOHO users with a flexible option to save fax or scanned document to memory card directly. Paper Saving with Caller ID and Junk Fax Filtering Function PIXMA MX517, MX437 and MX377 have included the Caller ID and Junk Fax Filtering function, where users can refuse to receive any fax from hidden caller ID or those numbers which have not been informed or have been saved in the rejected list.
