Canon PIXMA MP280 Multi Function Printer

The PIXMA MP280 Inkjet Photo All-In-One is a compact, stylish and high quality product that will fit virtually in any area of your home. Its maximum 4800 x 1200 colour dpi1 is combined with Canon’s patented Hybrid Ink System. So, you’ll have a pigment black ink for crisp text and dye ink for beautiful photos up to 8.5” x 11” all with outstanding quality.

The all-new Full HD Movie Print software turns your favorite HD movie moments captured with select Canon EOS or PowerShot cameras into beautiful, borderless photo prints!2 The MP280 also features Auto Photo Fix II. This technology automatically analyzes and applies image correction, red-eye removal and multi-zone exposure correction for beautiful images. When printing your photos, realize the power of the ChromaLife100+ when using genuine Canon inks and photo papers so your photos can be shared and preserved for generations.3

For the scanner in you, the all-new Auto Document Fix automatically delivers advanced image analysis and area-by-area data correction for text that’s easy to read, and pictures that maintain colour tone and contrast. While Auto Scan Mode automatically recognizes the type of original, then scans and saves the suitable settings. Do you want to easily print from the web? Canon’s Easy-WebPrint EX lets you print what you want how you off the web. Collect, combine and edit multiple web pages while creating your own layout with text and pictures.4

What does DPI mean?

Dots per inch (DPI) is unit used to describe the output quality or resolution of a printer. It describes the number of ink dots a printer is capable of producing in a linear one-inch space. Generally, the higher the dpi number, the sharper and more detailed the image can be depending on its size and image quality prior to printing. An inkjet printer uses tiny nozzles to spray its ink on the paper and most on the market is capable of producing 300dpi or more.

Use the chart below to determine the required pixel size of your image for the desired print quality:

Print Size Draft (300-320dpi) Standard (600-720dpi) High/Photo (1200-2880+ dpi)
2"x3" 300 x4 50 pixels 400 x 600 pixels 600 x 900 pixels
4"x6" 600 x 900 pixels 800 x 1200 pixels 1200 x 1800 pixels
5"x7" 750 x 1050 pixels 1000 x 1400 pixels 1500 x 2100 pixels
8"x10 1200 x 1500 pixels 1600 x 2000 pixels 2400 x 3000 pixels
