Canon Pixma MX410 Ink Review

The design of the Canon Pixma MX410 is streamlined to ensure that every drawer, tray, and port folds up flush in to the self-contained body. The effect is a really sleek matte black external surfaces with the buttons you will need to adjust the settings placed ideally on the front panel.

The MX410 is basic while having simply a two-line dot-matrix graphic display in the center of the control panel, which is adequate for just about all the day-to-day print, scan, and fax functionality.

Canon has included an auto-document feeder (ADF) making it easier to scan or copy stacks of documents. The ADF is only able to cope with as many as 30 pages at any given time, therefore the bulk of your blank media will go through the back input tray which holds 100 pages, and a plastic guide folds out of the rear tray in order to corral larger media.

We're disappointed to discover that the MX410 does not incorporate a multimedia card reader for the purpose of direct prints, however you can easily attach a digital camera directly to the printer via the PictBridge USB port on the base of the device.

The top of the machine lifts open to reveal the standard 8.5-inch-by-11-inch scanner bay, however you can additionally pop that open and get access to the two-ink cartridge bay beneath. Keeping costs low, the MX410 merely works by using two inks: one for black the other for tricolours.

The copy features on the MX410 are fairly typical for a multifunction: you can create up to 99 copies at once and simply alter the contrast and magnification of a document from 25 to 400 percent, all directly through the settings on the Liquid crystal display menus.

The MX410 displays just average output rates of speed. It lags behind the competition just a little in the graphics speed test at just 2.03 pages per minute (PPM). Given that this is not a full-blown photo printer, we can certainly forgive the MX410 for the slowish photo print test, considering that the remaining results are close enough to the opposition.

We printed all picture as well as graphical documents with the Canon Pixma MX410 printer ink cartridges on the paper that Canon provided. Black text upon standard 20 pound paper comes up properly darkened, yet a more detailed assessment unveils characters containing jagged edges as well as step-downs, fuzziness in little font sizes, and also extreme contrasts in colour mixes.

In addition, our colour graphics prints turned out grainy having a lifeless tone marring the photographs. Luckily, our 3-inch-by-5-inch picture proved OK with crisper lines as well as an even saturation, but the skin tones in the portrait photos all the same could not shake the dreary colour pallette.

The Canon Pixma MX410 is a worthy all-in-one solution for individuals that require an output system for intermittent periodic use to print out boarding passes, business papers, or perhaps occasional snapshot photographs. Its dual-ink cartridge bay hinders the output performance so we can't recommend it for photo-specific usage, but you'll surely be satisfied with the Pixma's graphic and text level of quality. Add extra features including wireless connectivity, an auto-document feeder, as well as Canon's exclusive HD Movie Print that allows you to pull as well as print still photos out from Canon compatible HD video cameras, and this specific product is more than worth its price tag.
