Canon MP640 Overview

The Canon PIXMA MP640 Wireless All-in-One Printer provides maximum resolutions up 9600 x 2400dpi yielding photos and documents displaying crisp text and great color detail in enlargements. This printer can output a 4 x 6" borderless photo in approximately 20 seconds.

The MP640 has built-in Wi-Fi capability to enable wireless printing from various locations and a built-in Ethernet interface enables users to create a wired network. This all-in-one is equipped for computer-free printing with built-in memory card readers, PictBridge for printing directly from a compatible digital camera, a high-speed USB port to accommodate compatible USB flash drives, and optional Bluetooth devices.

The MP640 uses 5 individual Canon ChromaLife 100+ ink tanks with four dye-based (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) inks and a pigment black ink which is STRICTLY used for document printing to save money by not draining color while printing black. Additionally, you will also save money because you only need to replace cartridges as they are depleted.

Images are easily previewed, selected and edited via the Pixma MP640's 3" Color LCD display. With built-in automatic duplex printing users can open creative channels by printing on both sides of the paper and can help reduce paper costs by 50%. Plus with Auto Photo Fix II, images are automatically corrected for optimal exposures.

High Resolution
The MP640 boasts a high resolution of 9600 x 2400dpi which results in high quality and detail in both business documents and photos.
Fast 4 x 6" Printing
The MP640 will print a borderless 4 x 6" photo in approximately 20 seconds.
5-Ink System
The Pixma MP640 uses four dye-based inks and a pigment-based black ink to produce crisp, laser-quality black text and vivid colors. With individual ink tanks you only replace the cartridge that runs out.
Built-in Wi-Fi
Print and scan wirelessly from any Wi-Fi enabled computer while you're in another room.
Wireless printing requires a working Ethernet network with wireless 802.11b/g capability. Wireless performance may vary based on terrain and distance between the printer and wireless network clients.
Built-In Ethernet
A wired LAN interface enables users to connect the Pixma MP640 to a home or office network, with connected computers sharing this versatile machine and each one enabled to display the printer's status at any moment. Connect the printer via its USB 2.0 port to a PC for fast data transfers.
Computer-Free Printing
With a USB Flash Memory Drive inserted into the MP640's PictBridge port or a compatible memory card into the built-in card slot users can print without a computer. A PictBridge connection allows users to print photos directly from a compatible digital camera, DV camcorder or camera phone. Users can also print from a BU-30 wireless Bluetooth unit (optional).
Auto Scan Mode
In the Auto Scan Mode the MP640 automatically recognizes the type of original, then scans and saves the suitable settings when accessed through the printer menu.
For network users, Auto Scan Mode is only available when scanning at a computer using MP Navigator EX software and selecting the 1-click feature then "save to PC".
Auto Fix II
Auto Fix II is built-in technology that automatically categorizes images into one of five types: Portrait, Scenery, Night Scenery, Snapshot with Scenery, and Snapshot with Night Scenery. It then applies optimal image and multi-zone exposure correction. Unexposed areas of a photo will be optimized, area by area and faces that are backlit and under-exposed will automatically be brightened and color corrected to help ensure more accurate skin tones.
Built-In Auto Duplex Printing
With automatic duplexing both sides of the paper can be printed without the hassle of turning it over manually. This feature helps the environment by cutting paper usage by 50%.
Dual Color Gamut Processing Technology
Copy with confidence as embedded Dual Color Gamut Pro Technology automatically optimizes copy quality based on the type of original to give accurate reproduction.
2-Way Paper Feeding
Load paper from the front cassette or rear tray depending on the type of paper being used.

4-In-One, 2-In-One

Individual Ink Tanks
The individual ink tanks may reduce the amount of wasted ink from cartridges as compared to a composite 4 color cartridge, by allowing users to replace individual color tanks rather than entire color cartridges.
Quick Start
