An AIO printer (inkjet all-in-one) can stir decent photos, but what if you want an AIO that’s much closer to a true photo printer even if you renounce some advanced AIO features? And also what you need is an expert AIO that’s designed a lot for photos as it is for text documents.
- The niche the Canon Pixma MG8120 is designed to fill.
- An inkjet photo printer also functions as an AIO.
- The MG8120 is more adequate, and it’s even capable of double-sided printing.
- For repetitive tasks such as bulk mailings and unattended envelope printing, you would be better off with a $299 model (a good fit for a home, a home office, or a light-printing small office) that has more-robust AIO features.
MG8120′s graphics capabilities:
- It’s big strength, like print quality and projected longevity of its photos.
- It has a six-cartridge ink system for exact color output, a high-resolution LCD screen, and the ability to scan 35mm slides and film strips.
MG8120 is faster than previous Canon AIO models when green printing photos and slower than the average AIO when printing text documents. The paper output tray holds only 50 sheets of paper. It can’t able handle printing more than one envelope at a time.
Canon Pixma MG8120 advantages:
- It had a smooth and modern appearance.
- The black glossy finish, rounded ends, and relatively low profile make it a good visual fit for a home, workstation area and also for modern office setting.
- It makes it a slight harder than usual to grip and extend the paper-output tray, which is located just below the bar.
- A distinctive metallic colored bar on the front of the printer helps you to find and raise the document cover.
- As with other recent Canon printers, you can close the output tray when it isn’t required. If you forget to open the output tray before printing, it will automatically open on its own before the next printed page arrives. You can also shut the rear paper-input tray when it isn’t required.
This printer’s onboard interface is one of the best ever seen. It basically combines a 3.5-inch LCD screen with three selection buttons and a five-way circular button. The three selection buttons aren’t labeled, but they can work in combination with labels that appear on the LCD. The circular button spins to let you quickly move through groups of menu options, while various other illuminated buttons striking light up the surrounding black panel to offer up task specific functions.
For e.g., when printing, a big red Stop button appears, or when scanning, you see easy-to-distinguish Black and Color buttons. These secondary context-sensitive buttons are particularly helpful, because Canon packs it with more than the usual number of options…

The Doc appreciates a good debate, in particular when it’s about a new technology taking over the land of an entrenched technology. In this case, there is an interesting debate rampant among a number of printing blogs as to whether or not inkjet is going to take over the printing world and replace offset technology (which uses plates and ink). Offset printing has been the mainstay of profitable printing for a number of decades, having itself replaced the more labor-intensive style of printing called letterpress.
But now offset faces a danger from two fronts. On the one side, high-speed toner-based printing devices have been taking over the short-run end of the market (usually defined as 5,000 copies or less). And now, thanks to breakthrough in speed, high-end inkjet devices are gaining ground as well.

As printing industry has more impact over environment, in recent years they find new methods to make products more environmentally friendly printing. Traditionally, petroleum based inks were used. While green printing techniques uses soy or vegetable based inks. Soy or vegetable based inks can easily be removed from paper and reused. Moreover the waste created during recycling can easily be disposed.
Eco-friendly papers are 100% recycled and it has not been processed with chlorine. Nowadays, most of the printing companies use pulp from sustainable tree farms to limit the impact on environment. Papers are created using plant waste which is one of the varieties of green printing methods.
Eco-friendly printers take into consideration of power saving. Carbon footprint is one of the big concerns for companies. Also, the recycled paper produces large amount of CO2. Actually, an average four trees are used for a ton of recycled paper and most of the companies are looking forward to minimize the carbon footprint.
So, try to create some earth conscious to the people and protect our environment with courtesy. Green printing is one of the best techniques that reduce the effect over environment.

Jiefang Daily Printing Centre has 4 Agfa Polaris XTV platesetters. Together they produce about 70% of the newspaper’s printing plates. Jiefang Daily is pleased with the high mechanization, increased efficiency and improved quality of Computer to Plate systems. Now that the entire workflow management is automated, the next goal for Jiefang Daily is to realize full CTP production and reduce waste in the production cycle as a consequence. Switching to CtP technology has already allowed the factory to reduce 50% of its chemical waste.
|
|
Following a clear development in China, Jiefang Daily plans to take up more social tasks hence eliminate even more chemical waste. Jiefang Daily is the first printer in China to adopt Agfa’s N92-VCF plate technology.

 |
|
Advancement from the conventional photopolymer plate system turned out to be easy for Jiefang Daily, without the compromise in speed and quality. The exchange of the conventional plate processor to a gumming processor went very smoothly. The configuration was intensively tested to ensure that production necessities could be met. Today, the violet chemistry-free plate has proven to be the ideal solution for Jiefang Daily. It eliminates chemical waste, thus contributing to an eco-friendly production, and at the same time eases plate handling and produces a very constant output quality.

 |
Mr. Zhang Xiaoming, General Manager of Jiefang Daily, commented: “Agfa’s N92-VCF truly is an eco plate. The exceptional quality is amazing – it has a good imaging resolution, excellent dot reproduction, and a better ink-water balance that helps shorten make-ready time.” He also pointed out, that water is a valuable resource. “The gumming unit is very easy to maintain – all you need to do is exchange the protection gum when necessary. Last but not least, the plate perfectly meets our production requirements, both in terms of run length and print quality.”
