Canon MAXIFY GX7170 Wireless Colour All-in-One MegaTank Printer

The Canon MAXIFY GX7170 is a high-performance colour ink tank multifunction printer designed for businesses and offices that handle demanding document workloads. Combining Print, Scan, Copy and Fax functionality in one machine, it provides a complete document solution for professional environments.

The printer delivers A4 print speeds of up to 24 images per minute in monochrome and 15.5 images per minute in colour, making it suitable for regular high-volume document production. Automatic duplex printing allows users to print on both sides of compatible paper without manually turning each sheet.

The MAXIFY GX7170 uses a 4-colour GI-76 pigment ink system designed for business documents. The high-density pigment ink produces sharp text and strong colour output while providing resistance to water spills and highlighter smudging.

The ink system offers standard yields of up to 6,000 black pages and 14,000 colour pages. In Economy mode, the specified yields can reach up to 9,000 black pages and 21,000 colour pages, helping reduce the frequency of ink replacement for heavy office workloads.

For multi-page document processing, the GX7170 includes a 50-sheet single-pass duplex ADF. It can scan both sides of a document in one pass, making it useful for reports, invoices, forms, contracts and other two-sided paperwork.

The printer also provides a large 600-sheet standard paper capacity, consisting of two 250-sheet paper cassettes and a 100-sheet rear tray. This reduces the need for frequent paper refilling during busy office operations.

With USB, Wi-Fi, wired LAN and Wireless Direct connectivity, the MAXIFY GX7170 can be integrated into both individual workstations and shared office networks.
