If you’re looking for a basic multifunction printer for use in a small or home office, the Canon Pixma MX850 is a likely candidate.

It has a good array of features that make it suitable for office use, however if you require a printer for making photo prints, look elsewhere as its colour reproduction is slightly below par.

It has the usual features that you’d expect with a multifunction device, including black-andwhite and colour printing, copying, scanning and fax facilities.

Print quality in black-and-white mode is good, and also fairly speedy, and the scanning function is also excellent. As previously mentioned, the Pixma MX850 is slightly lacking when it comes to colour printing, however this may not be an important requirement for the small or home office.

The MX850 is also fairly easy to use and set up, making it an ideal printer for any small business with a limited IT budget.
