Canon PIXMA G3270 MegaTank All-in-One Wireless Inkjet Color Printer (Black)

Meet the Canon PIXMA G3270 MegaTank All-in-One Wireless Inkjet Color Printer — a cost-saving, space-saving AIO engineered for everyday documents and vibrant photos. With Canon’s refillable MegaTank ink system, the G3270 slashes ongoing ink costs while delivering crisp text and rich color on plain paper and photo media. Built-in Wi-Fi and a simple 1.35-inch LCD make setup and daily use effortless at home, in dorms, or in small offices.

Canon’s MegaTank bottles hold dramatically more ink than traditional cartridges, cutting cost per page and reducing interruptions. Transparent, integrated reservoirs show remaining ink at a glance, while keyed, mess-resistant bottle nozzles help ensure quick, clean refills.

Powered by Canon’s 4-color hybrid ink system (pigment black + dye color), the PIXMA G3270 produces sharp, professional-looking text along with smooth gradients and vivid hues for photos and graphics. With up to 4800 x 1200 dpi resolution and rated speeds up to 11 ipm (B/W) and 6 ipm (Color) ESAT, it’s ready for homework, reports, invitations, and borderless photos up to letter size.

Built-in Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n) enables cable-free printing from laptops, phones, and tablets. Use Apple AirPrint on iOS/macOS, Mopria on Android/Chromebook, or Canon PRINT to check ink levels, run maintenance, and send documents and photos from anywhere on your network. Wi-Fi Direct support lets compatible devices print without joining the router.

Scan and copy with the flatbed scanner—perfect for IDs, receipts, forms, and photos. Convenient copy modes like Fit-to-Page, 2-on-1, and ID Card Copy streamline everyday tasks, while borderless copy/print options help your photos and projects look their best.

A clean, compact chassis saves desk space, and the 1.35-inch LCD makes it easy to navigate wireless setup, maintenance, and copy settings. Rear paper feed handles a wide range of sizes and specialty media—from 3.5 x 3.5-inch squares up to 8.5 x 14-inch legal.

Create lab-quality borderless prints in popular sizes, including 4 x 6, 5 x 7, 8 x 10, and letter (8.5 x 11 inches). Pair the G3270 with Canon photo papers to unlock rich color and long-lasting, display-worthy results.

MegaTank refills are quick and clean, and the printer’s intuitive maintenance tools—accessible from the LCD or Canon PRINT app—make nozzle checks and cleaning cycles straightforward. Fewer cartridge changes mean less plastic waste and fewer trips to the store.

- Households and students who need reliable, high-volume printing at the lowest ongoing cost
- Home offices and microbusinesses that value sharp text, color marketing materials, and photo output
- Creators who print on varied media sizes, want borderless photos, and appreciate refillable convenience

- Versus cartridge-based inkjets: MegaTank bottles dramatically reduce cost per page and support higher volumes with fewer interruptions.
- Versus office laser printers: While lasers excel for mono text at high speeds, the G3270 offers superior color photo capability and lower color running costs for mixed document/photo needs.
- Versus other MegaTank models: The G3270 emphasizes home/office versatility with wireless connectivity and borderless photo printing up to letter size. For more specialized photo work, Canon’s photo-centric MegaTank models with expanded color sets may be preferable; for business features like Ethernet and document feeders, look to step-up models in the Canon lineup.

- Always use genuine Canon MegaTank ink bottles to maintain reliability and color accuracy.
- Keep the rear paper guide adjusted snugly to avoid skewed prints.
- For best photo quality, select the matching paper type in the driver (e.g., Photo Paper Plus Glossy II) and enable borderless mode when desired.
- Run an occasional nozzle check from the LCD or Canon PRINT app if the printer has been idle to keep the print head in optimal condition.
