Canon Maxify GX4050

The Maxify GX4050 prints just as cheaply and just as well as the test winner. It was even slightly faster in the speed measurements. The GX4050 is noticeably smaller than the GX7050. On the other hand, the equipment has been economised: the display is smaller. In addition, the small Maxify only has one paper cassette. Not so nice: When printing, the Canon is very loud at 17.1 sone.

Inkjet and laser printers, with or without scan, copy and fax functions: the printer test shows clear differences in quality and follow-up costs.

The Canon Maxify GX4050 is a multifunction printer that prioritises office tasks. The large, cost-saving ink supply allows for low cost/page.

The differences between the two office multifunctional devices are more in the details: If you have little space and mainly print text and business graphics, the very compact Epson EcoTank ET-5170 is the best choice. If you want a lot of flexibility in the paper feed and also print brochures and photos more often, the Canon Maxify GX4050 is the better choice...
