Product details

Print large volumes of high-quality business documents while significantly reducing cost per page and total operating costs – no problem with this easy-to-use 4-in-1 MegaTank multifunction system from the MAXIFY GX series, featuring ADF, LAN, and Wi-Fi.

Outstanding productivity, class-leading cost per page, and total operating costs. Cost per page refers to the expenses incurred when printing a single page. This amount is calculated by dividing the cost of ink by the page yield.

Total operating costs involve calculating the expenses of a printer based on the initial purchase price of the hardware plus the ink costs over a specific period.

Low operating costs, high productivity. With a full set of ink bottles for up to 14,000 prints, this powerful MegaTank printer offers significant savings on total operating costs and cost per page, making it a smart investment for any home office.

Compatible apps and software. With the free Canon PRINT app, you can print documents, photos, and more directly from your mobile device, and with PosterArtist, you can quickly and easily create impressive posters and flyers. The PIXMA Cloud Link allows you to send scans directly to popular cloud services like Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive – or print from them.

The Canon Easy-PhotoPrint Editor transforms your favorite photos (directly from a device or cloud storage) into stylish, personalized gifts like cards and calendars.

The user-friendly Easy-Layout Editor allows for free design of various document layouts before printing. Ideal for printing images, posters, web pages, and more.

Rank 1 out of 21Stiftung Warentest21 DruckerReleaseApril 2024

Anyone looking for a printer for the home quickly realises that the price range is huge. The printers tested by Stiftung Warentest range from under 100 to over 1,000 euros. The differences in quality are just as great: while many good printers tested impress with razor-sharp text or brilliant photo prints, others disappoint with blurred, streaky print images, poor contrast or colour errors...

  • NegativeHigh price
  • NegativeNo memory card reader
  • Negativeprints somewhat loudly

The test winner from Canon is far too expensive for occasional printers, but if you print a lot, the Maxify GX7050 is just right for you. It prints texts, graphics and photos quickly and extremely cheaply. The Maxify also scores points with its extensive features: two paper cassettes that store the paper supply dust-free, an automatic document feeder and the option of double-sided printing.

  • PositiveFastest printer tested
  • PositivePaper cassette
  • PositiveAutomatic scanner feeder
  • NegativeVery loud when printing
  • NegativeModerate colour fidelity in colour graphic printing

The Maxify GX4050 prints just as cheaply and just as well as the test winner. It was even slightly faster in the speed measurements. The GX4050 is noticeably smaller than the GX7050. On the other hand, the equipment has been economised: the display is smaller. In addition, the small Maxify only has one paper cassette. Not so nice: When printing, the Canon is very loud at 17.1 sone.

The Canon Maxify GX7050 shines with excellent print quality, a large paper capacity and very good features, as long as you can do without borderless printing.
