Typical of Canon’s Maxify ‘MegaTank’ printers, this one claims to save you around 90 per cent on the total cost of ownership, compared with leading laser and inkjet printers. That’s thanks to it running on relatively large tanks that are replenished by bottles of ink, rather than expensive, small-capacity ink cartridges.
Naturally, from a business perspective, there are also savings in time, effort and money if you only have to buy bottles of ink occasionally instead of ordering cartridges on a frequent basis. Indeed, a single set of bottles (as supplied with the printer) should see you through 6,000 mono and 14,000 color document pages, and up to 9,000 mono and 21,000 color in Economy print mode.
