Canon MAXIFY MB5120 Wireless Small All-in-One Inkjet Printer

The Canon MAXIFY MB5120 Wireless Small Office All-in-One Inkjet Printer is designed to power productivity for home offices and small businesses that demand speed, reliability, and professional-quality output. With quick ISO print speeds, a 50-sheet duplex ADF, robust network connectivity, and business-grade pigment inks, the MB5120 delivers crisp, smudge-resistant documents and streamlines everyday tasks like printing, scanning, copying, and faxing—all in a compact footprint.

Stay ahead of your workload with ISO print speeds up to 24 ipm (black and white) and 15.5 ipm (color). Whether you’re producing invoices, presentations, or marketing materials, Canon’s FINE print head technology and 4-color pigment ink system deliver sharp text and vibrant graphics. The MB5120’s print engine is optimized for small office throughput, helping reduce bottlenecks and keep your team productive.

Canon’s PGI-2200/2200XL pigment ink tanks provide durable output that resists smudging and highlighter smears—ideal for handling and archiving business documents. Pigment ink ensures razor-sharp text clarity and professional color fidelity on a variety of office media, so your printed materials look clean, consistent, and credible.

The MAXIFY MB5120 supports automatic duplex printing to save paper and time, and it features a front cassette designed for mainstream office sizes including Letter, Legal, and A4, plus common photo sizes. The integrated 50-sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) supports two-sided scanning and copying, allowing you to quickly process multi-page documents without manual page flipping.

Seamlessly integrate into your network via Ethernet (RJ-45), Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n), or a direct USB connection. Mobile and cloud printing options include Apple AirPrint, Mopria, Google Cloud Print (legacy), and the Canon PRINT app with MAXIFY Cloud Link, enabling easy printing and scanning from smartphones and tablets, and direct access to cloud services.

The 3.0-inch color touchscreen gives you a clear, user-friendly interface to configure print jobs, scan settings, copy options, and fax functions. Quick access to features like ID Card Copy, Collate, and Reduction/Enlargement (25–400%) helps streamline common office tasks with minimal training.

A CIS (Contact Image Sensor) scanner ensures accurate document capture across the flatbed and ADF. Duplex scanning supports efficient digitization of two-sided originals, while copy speeds up to approx. 23 ipm (B/W) and 15 ipm (Color) keep pace with daily needs. For fax, Super G3 33.6 Kbps modem speed and up to approximately 250 pages of memory provide reliable transmission and storage when sending critical documents.

With fast wake-up, straightforward cartridge replacement, and clear on-screen guides, the MB5120 is engineered for minimal downtime. Supported media includes plain paper, high-resolution paper, photo papers, labels, and envelopes—perfect for diverse office applications, from everyday correspondence to customer mailing campaigns.

Integration is easy thanks to broad OS compatibility, including Windows 7/8.1/10/11, macOS, and Chrome OS. Mobile printing via AirPrint and Mopria ensures a frictionless experience across major platforms, while the Canon PRINT app provides convenient access to printer status, maintenance functions, and cloud workflows.

Professional touches—such as auto two-sided copy, ID Card Copy, Frame Erase, Collate, and Multiple Copy up to 99 sets—equip small offices with capabilities typically found in larger departmental devices. Borderless printing up to letter size adds flexibility for producing edge-to-edge marketing pieces and presentations.

Compared to higher-capacity MAXIFY models like the MB5420, the MB5120 offers the essential performance and features suited to smaller teams, with a more modest footprint and a streamlined paper capacity—ideal for single-user offices or small workgroups. Against many consumer all-in-ones, the MB5120’s business-grade pigment inks and faster ISO speeds deliver superior text and document durability for professional use.
