The control panel is well laid out, running the full width of the front and includes a full colour – if small, at 45mm – LCD display, designed primarily to show menu options, rather than photo thumbnails. Paper feeds to the fold-down front cover of the machine and, intelligently, this has an auto-release, if you fail to open it before starting a print run. This might have been an idea as, even without the need to load plain and photo paper, it would be useful to be able to load letterheads at the same time as follow-on sheets. The print feed tray is angled more steeply and mounted at the back of the machine, although there’s no separate, slide-in paper cartridge at the front to offer twin paper sources. When open, it still isn’t raised lifted very high and scanned pages feed to an output tray directly beneath it. The top surface is neatly flat when the machine is closed, as the ADF feed tray folds over to complete its lines. The new design features a wraparound, black band, which surrounds the 30-sheet ADF and has the control panel built into it. The MX330 is a mid-range device, coming in at just over £100 and offering an Auto Document Feeder (ADF) and walk-up scan to USB drives, but no memory card slots or CD/DVD print. Indeed, Canon is doing its bit to differentiate between the two markets by producing the PIXMA MX range of business-oriented all-in-ones, as well as the older PIXMA MP range with extra photo facilities. At £100 it’s excellent value for money, the lack of individual tanks might scare some off though the cartridges are available for about £15 each so it’s not expensive to replace the inks.Doing the business: Canon's Pixma MX330 all-in-one inkjet

The Canon Pixma MX330 is clearly aimed at people who are printing out more text and PDF documents than photos and it’s very good at this. If you only print out the odd shot then the Canon will more than likely be fine, but that’s as far as we’d go. There was a lack of detail in darker areas, however, colour was accurate and overall the tone was good. An A4 image took just 1 minute and 42 seconds, which is impressive, but the quality was more middle of the road. Photographic performance was less impressive, but by no means terrible. The quality of the mixed text and graphics output was exceptional and it’s clear where this printer's strengths lie. Ten pages of graphics and text was slow too at 6 minutes, though the quality more than made up for the time taken. Hardly an age, but slower than some of Canon’s other all-in-ones. A page of draft text was out and ready to go in 9 seconds, which isn’t too bad, however a page of best text was a touch sluggish at 1 minute 37 seconds. Sharp and solid text blocks are in evidence in normal and best modes and even draft quality was very impressive. Text quality is very good for an ink-based device - it’s up there with some laser quality prints we’ve seen.

The lack of separate ink tanks and the auto document feeder plus the fax, single the MX330 out as a machine aimed at people who do more with business documents than photos. The build quality is up to the usual Canon standard and the MX330 feels like it will survive the rough and tumble of office life. In terms of design the Canon is inoffensive enough with a grey and black finish. To add to the business aspect of the Canon there’s a 33.6kpps fax too. There’s a 1.8-inch LCD screen to help navigate the menus and use the device: it’s smaller than many you'll find on modern all-in-ones, but it does the job. You can put a memory stick into the front USB port and scan directly to that if you d like too. It’s also capable of collated copies so you can put 2 or 4 on to one page. The MX330 has a 1200 x 2400 dpi scanner a well as an automatic document feeder for batch scanning and copying, it can hold 30 sheets of A4. Page yields are given by Canon as 220 for the black tank and 244 for the colour. The black tank contains a pigment-based ink while the colour tank is dye-based, in an attempt to give you the best of both worlds pigment for better text quality, dye for improved photo quality. There’s no separate ink tanks on this all-in-one, simply two cartridges, one colour and one black. (Pocket-lint) - The Canon Pixma MX330 is a inkjet all-in-one printer that’s designed for the small home office and business.
