Now users can press the power button and watch their printer start up almost immediately, without a long delay between pressing the power button and actually seeing the user interface on the screen. The new Canon Pixma photo printer make sure that the entire photo printing process, from editing to printing, is easier with Auto Image Fix, a feature that automatically analyzes and categorizes the scenes in photographs and optimizes each individual scene in accordance with the scene type, such as Portrait, Scenery, Snapshot, etc. In these latest models, Auto Image Fix works directly from a connected digital camera or through compatible memory cards, which translates into a seamless process for the user without even connecting to a computer.

Canon Pixma MP610 photo printer - Features & Price
The Canon MP610 All-in-One Photo Printer delivers high-quality photo prints by using up to 9600 x 2400 color dpi resolution and five individual ink tanks for long-lasting beautiful prints (prints can last up-to 100 years in an archival quality album). The 2.5-inch TFT high definition screen displays images from a digital camera’s memory card in the built-in card reader and it has a wide viewing angle so you do not need to be right in front of the printer. The elegantly designed Canon Pixma MP610 Photo AIO Printer blazes through a 4-inch x 6-inch photo lab quality borderless print at a speed of approximately 21 seconds.

Canon Pixma MP610 printer - Easy-Scroll wheel
The Easy-Scroll Wheel user interface will be very familiar to consumers who have popular portable digital music players, helping them quickly understand the operations that this wheel controls, including editing, copying, printing and scanning options. What’s more, Canon has improved the “HOME” and “NAVI” buttons on these devices’ operational panels. When consumers push the NAVI button, it not only displays the machine’s on-screen guide, but it even navigates the user to the function they desire. The HOME button allows users to return to the main menu, regardless of where they are in the sub-menus, assuring users that home is always just a click away. By improving the Easy-Scroll Wheel, HOME and NAVI buttons, Canon has been able to simplify the printing process, and reduce the number of total buttons by approximately half, making operation much easier.

Canon Pixma MP610 All-in-One - ChromaLife100 System
The Canon Pixma MP610 Photo All-In-One printer employs the Canon ChromaLife100 system, including FINE print head technology, for long-lasting photo prints. When using select genuine Canon photo papers and inks, prints can resist fading for up to 100 years when stored in an archival quality photo album. The 100-year-lifespan rivals that of many traditional film-based photos, long considered by consumers to be the benchmark for image permanence. Prints produced on Canon Photo Paper Pro with ChromaLife100 have up to a ten-year gas fastness when exposed to open air. ChromaLife100 prints, when created using Canon Photo Paper Pro or Photo Paper Plus Glossy, have up to a 30-year light fastness when displayed under glass.

Canon Pixma MP610 - Creative Park & Easy-PhotoPrint EX software
More than ever, consumers are diving into digital scrapbooking, photo albums, calendars and crafting projects. Canon’s Creative Park Web site offers 3-D paper craft projects, scrapbooking templates, novel greeting cards, educational materials, and the opportunity to learn more about digital photography. Canon Easy-PhotoPrint EX photo printing software is included with the Canon Pixma MP610 and makes printing multiple size prints on a variety of Canon papers a snap. Other features such as cropping, increasing saturation and correcting red eye are also included to allow the user to make corrections to images without having to use additional software. With the newly updated Easy-LayoutPrint application, consumers can even produce beautiful photo calendars, albums, and stickers, with little to no hassle.
