CANON Marketing (Philippines) Inc. (CMPI) on Thursday launched its Pixma G Series printer line.
In a media briefing, the company said the Pixma G Series’s line of refill ink-tank printers are geared for the small entrepreneurs’ requirements “with its unique design, printing quality and hardware durability.”
“As the leader in the imaging and printing business, Canon brings to the table the best-in-class genuine refill ink-tank printer thus far,” said Vinchy Sanchez, CMPI director for Consumer Group. “This meets the Filipino entrepreneurs’ long-sought for quality printers that could bring them a quick return on investment.”
As far as value for money is concernd, Sanchez said the Pixma G Series offers high-volume printing at low cost per print with inks available at P295 per bottle, which can yield 7,000 colored prints and 6,000 black-and-white prints.
Meanwhile, it boasts of the sleek design of the refillable tank system, where integrated see-through ink tanks contribute to a compact printer body and allow users to view remaining ink levels at a glance. Moreover, the spill-resistant bottle design shows off the bottle tip designed to prevent spillage, making the ink tank-refilling sessions easy and mess-free.
To entice the market, Canon launched a special promo for the G Series printers. With the purchase of Pixma G1000 and Pixma G2000, a buyer will get free two black-ink bottles for redemption through www.canon.com.ph/rewards; while the Pixma G3000 has two black-ink bottles automatically bundled.
Aside from getting these free items, registration of these printers at the Canon Rewards site will also give customers an additional one-year warranty, for a total of a two- year warranty. Customers will also enjoy borderless photo printing with the free glossy photo paper (GP-508 4×6 inches, 20 sheets) bundled with all three Pixma G Series printers.
The company said three Pixma G Printers are best for the small and medium enterprises. These are: Pixma G1000 for bulk printing, priced at P5,995; Pixma G2000 can print, scan and copy any kind of important document at home or at the office, priced at P7,995; and Pixma G3000 boasts of the same print, scan and copy features but adds the capability to print via Wi-Fi connection.
