The need for single function printers is still going strong despite the presence of all-in-one printers. Some people choose to buy newer models, while some others decide to stick to the older ones, like the Canon iP4760.

The printer is a five-color inkjet machine offering a direct CD or DVD printing, double trays mechanism, automatic duplex printing, 9600 x 2400 dpi resolution, a PictBridge socket, and USB 2.0 support.

Features and Highlights

Two paper trays are always better than one paper tray even if the latter has the same total capacity as that of the former, especially when it is about a photo printer. With two paper trays, there is no need to swap paper anymore. You can, for example, use one of the trays to hold photo paper and the other one to hold plain paper.

The Canon iP4760 isn’t exactly designed for high volume printing needs, but it doesn’t mean that it isn’t completely incapable of handling large print jobs on condition that you don’t print more than its duty cycle. The two trays provide a total capacity of approximately three hundred sheets. If there are still pages that haven’t been printed out yet when the paper stock is running out in the first tray, a touch on the toggle button will tell the printer to continue printing by using the paper stock loaded in the other tray.

If you need to print on a CD or DVD disc, the Canon iP4760 has a dedicated tray into which you can drop a disc. The CD tray is accessible from the front by opening the inner cover. The way the printer works makes it very easy to print on almost any optical disc.

Also interesting is the automatic duplex printing. This particular functionality is useful even for users who don’t need to print double-sided pages. The reason is that it can save on paper significantly. By reducing the paper waste, users will also be able to participate in lessening the environmental impact of printing. Managing paper would become easier too as there are fewer sheets of paper that users need to handle.

A USB port at the back of the printer connects it to a computer via a compatible cable. This connection allows users to configure print jobs before sending them to the printer. There isn’t any wireless support, unfortunately, which limits the printer’s versatility in tackling print jobs.

Of all the five ink cartridges that the Canon iP4760 uses, in addition to the standard-capacity black ink cartridge, there is an extra black ink cartridge offering a larger volume of ink. On the downside, this means users have to spend more money to buy the replacements. On the upside, a higher capacity of ink cartridge usually translates to lower cost per page and reduced downtime.

On the whole, the Canon iP4760 is an excellent photo printer with some notable features that set it apart from the crowd. You can click the link below to download Canon iP4760 Driver for Windows:
