Canon PIXMA Office AIO printers are designed with features to increase productivity and overall efficiency in the home office.

Each new model also works with Evernote, a cloud-based service that allows users to take notes, save webpages, capture inspiration, share ideas and sync all that information across devices. Using compatible Canon printers, documents and papers can be easily scanned into Evernote via wireless or USB connection. Additional compatible printers are: PIXMA MG6320, MG5420, MG4220, MG3220, MG2220 and MP230.

In addition, images can be further customized with Fun Filter Effects, such as Fish-Eye, Miniature and Toy Camera. With Creative Park Premium users can access photos and illustrations, such as greeting card cover art and calendar images, and apply them to their own designs. The printers also offer a suite of post-editing tools and effects, such as Automatic Suggestion which allows users to sync a folder with the software to display images in a slideshow to help bring awareness to those that may have gone unnoticed.
