Printing Power
Your crowded desk might not have room for a printer. That's
OK. You can stick Canon's Pixma iP4000R across the room without
worrying about pesky cables. This 802.11b/g-compatible color inkjet
is good for modest office printing needs. It delivers
black-and-white pages at a fast 25 ppm, and 4,800 x 1,200 dpi color
at 17 ppm. It has a 300-sheet paper capacity and a direct digital
camera-to-printer port. And if you do have a neat desk, USB and
Ethernet connections are available.Canon
