Canon Extends PIXMA Range with Two New 3-in-1 Home Printers
Canon is set to release a brand-new addition to its innovative printing range that is perfectly designed to take your home study, work or creative space to the next level – the PIXMA TS7640i/ TS7740i. Delivering quality printouts with ease and speed, this cutting-edge printing solution promises to revolutionize and simplify the print-at-home experience. A slight extension to PIXMA TS7640i’s offering, PIXMA TS7740i has been fitted with a 35-sheet ADF for added convenience and efficient multi-page document management.
Whether you are a student requiring a printer for your course work, an arts and craft enthusiast running a small business from home or simply someone who appreciates fast high-quality photo prints, the Canon PIXMA TS7640i series will bring your vision to life on paper. The Canon PIXMA TS7640i/ TS7740i has been designed with practicality and ease of use in mind. In addition to its 2.7” colour LCD touchscreen, tilt panel and LED status light for maximum comfort, the compact size printers are space-saving in recognition of a wide variety of home set-ups, ensuring the printer fits seamlessly into the home, without compromising on quality.
In fact, the PIXMA TS7640i/ TS7740i – which prints 15 ipm to 10 ipm – is designed to deliver high-quality document printing with excellent durability, and resistance to highlighters, friction, and water. Recognising that a desk space in our home fulfils multiple functions, from work to side hustles and admin tasks, these two models are productivity champions, allowing each member of the home to quickly get their tasks done, with automatic two-sided printing and a new feature that provides a copy of your page with just a single button touch.
Furthermore, the Canon PIXMA TS7640i/ TS7740i comes with a Switch UI function, a user-friendly touchscreen interface that consolidates popular functions into different icons, keeping operations simple and streamlined. Users can quickly switch between icons through the menu at the top of the screen, customise background colour and lock functions that aren’t required. Different members of a household can create their own profiles, making it easier and faster to access the most frequently used settings.
With PIXMA TS7640i/ TS7740i, users can now say goodbye to the days of complex set-ups and tangled cables with easy and simple wireless setup, and the option to connect without a router via Wireless Direct. This can be initiated by scanning a QR code and creating a direct connection between a mobile device and the printer. To further optimize workflows, this printer allows users to scan a document by having it sent directly to their mobile device via QR code functionality without the use of any additional apps or workarounds.
For quick printing tasks, the Canon PRINT app enables seamless PC-free printing along with compatibility with Apple AirPrint and Mopria for Android. Further apps and software expand the creative possibilities, with the Creative Park app, Easy-Photo Print Editor, Easy-Layout Editor and PosterArtist Web. The Canon PIXMA TS7640i/ TS7740i printers will sit above the Canon PIXMA TS5340a and Canon PIXMA TS7440a and below the Canon PIXMA TS6340, a sleek 5-individual-ink multitasker more geared towards the creative community.

Canon Intros SELPHY QX20 Portable Colour Photo Printer
Canon Middle East unveils the latest addition to its portable printer range with the launch of the SELPHY QX20, an exciting evolution to the previous QX10, enabling users to continue broadening their creative horizons with greater freedom. Leaning into popular social media formats, this upgrade now supports 2:3 as well as square paper sizes and is available in on-trend terracotta red, dark grey and classic white.
The new QX20 is a must-have gadget for those with a passion for creativity. Whether that be making visual notes for personal projects, decorating journals or scrapbooks using sticky-backed paper, crafting personalised notes for loved ones, or simply decorating wall spaces, SELPHY QX20 delivers high-quality, long-lasting pictures straight from a smartphone. The flexibility in paper sizes lends itself nicely to 365 photo challenges, inviting users to print one photo a day as a wonderfully tangible way to remember smaller daily moments.
Without the need for ink cartridges, the SELPHY QX20 uses dye sublimation technology that produces smudge-free, high-quality photos. An overcoat is added to resist the effect of fading. Easily transportable and complete with a built-in battery and Wi-Fi compatibility, the printer fits comfortably in a bag, meaning it can be used on-the-go to transform memories into physical keepsakes on the spot. At home, its compact size means it can sit neatly on any shelf or desk without competing for tabletop space.
Beyond the choice of paper size, wider creative expression is available with the SELPHY Photo Layout App, where fun artistic touches like stamps, filters, borders, and text can be added to special memories. For example, snowflakes can be added to a selfie to use as a Christmas table place card or hearts when making a homemade Valentine’s Day gift. The update also includes collages, frames and customisable borders, with new edge-to-edge printing meaning more of the memory can be seen with each print.
Joining an expanding portfolio of portable mobile printers, including the CP1500, a super compact photo printer for the desk, and the Zoemini range, a series of pocket-sized devices to print instant peel-and-stick photos, the latest QX20 fits perfectly into this line-up – a functional yet stylish printer and the ideal product for unleashing creativity, anytime, anywhere.
