Meanwhile, at 6.3 cents per page, the 600-page PG-240XXL ($38) black cartridge isn’t much cheaper. The PG-240XL Extra Large black cartridge ($21) lasts for 300 pages, which works out to a pricey 7 cents per page. The replacement black ink costs are well above average, but replacement color can be relatively affordable. The PG-240 and CL-241 cartridges that come in the box are very low-capacity–delivering just 180 pages apiece–and they are currently not for sale in the United States.
The Pixma MX512 uses Canon’s 240 and 241 series ink cartridges. This arrangement works most of the time, but occasionally a sheet printed in the unit’s speedy draft mode will sail to the floor. The output tray is oddly designed: It’s short, so that paper hangs over the edge and is stopped by the catch extending from the input tray below it. The Pixma MX512’s paper handling features are adequate for light use, with a 100-sheet paper tray, automatic duplexing, and a 30-sheet automatic document feeder for the scanner. Still, the 2.5-inch nontouch LCD display is nice to have. The like-priced Canon Pixma MX410 has a far better control panel design though it still suffers from the three dubious function buttons. Among the control panel’s foibles are three intermittently used function buttons, an odd-feeling four-way rocker, an inefficient layout that requires too much hand movement, and a keypad whose numbers are backlit only when needed–though the buttons have no other use.
All items listed on this page have been confirmed by our technical team as compatible with this Canon PIXMA MX512 machine.But while its software is nicely designed, the Pixma MX512’s control panel has a Rube Goldberg aspect to it–and that’s being a bit harsh on Rube’s designs, which, though comically convoluted, are not confusing.
