Canon's latest all-in-one Pixma TS8370, TS6370 and TS5370 printers offer multiple ways for you to connect with them. They support AirPrint, Canon Print Service for Android OS, and Mopria for direct printing.
Pixma Cloud Link and Google Cloud Print are also available for printing from the cloud, so you can easily get pictures off your phone to a print.
All three models are equipped with a Wireless Connect button that aids in Wi-Fi setup, as well as having Wireless Direct technology so you won't need a wireless router to connect. So, home printing becomes fast, simple and reliable.
As you might expect, the printers are also compatible with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa now, so you can even print anything from colouring pages and origami to shopping lists just with your voice.
On that note, Canon has brought their Message in a Print feature over to these printers too, so you can embed secret messages in photos that the recipient can unlock with their phone camera.
The printers are also compatible with the new Iron-on transfer papers that Canon is releasing. This comes in two types. There's a Light Fabric Iron-On Transfer (LF101) designed for light-coloured fabrics, and a Dark Fabric Iron-On Transfer (DF-101) designed for dark fabrics, so you can get the best print for your respective image.
Canon has also released a set of new Double-Sided Matte Papers (MP-101D) that work well for greeting cards. The MP-101D media is available in 12 x 12" and half-fold 7 x 10" sizes.
The Pixma TS8370 is a 6-ink photo printer that comes in Red, White or Black. Capable of printing a 4R borderless photo in 17 seconds, this features a Photo Blue ink that reduces graininess you normally find in bright-coloured prints from blue to white. It also has a 4.3" touch-screen LCD, a two-way paper feeder and a multipurpose tray that lets you do custom nail stickers. It retails for S$299.
The Pixma TS6370 is a 5-ink photo printer that comes only in Navy Blue. It's capable of printing a 4R borderless photo in 21 seconds and features a high contrast 1.44" OLED display and an inclined control panel. This is capable of printing a 4R borderless photo in 43 seconds.
If you need information on how to work the various functions, simply press the QR code button on the operation panel, and it will display a QR code you can scan to get the information you need. There's also a smart LED status bar on the front lip of the operation panel that pulses to indicate the current operating state so you'll know at a glance if the ink is low or a print job has completed. This will retail for S$239.
Finally, the Pixma TS5370 is available in colours of Millennial Pink, Brilliant Green and Navy Blue. This all-in-one printer also features automatic two-sided printing, two-way paper feeding, and comes with a high contrast 1.44" OLED screen. You'll also get the QR code button and the smart LED status bar. This has an RRP of S$169.
All three printers will be available from mid-September onwards at all authorised Canon dealers.
