Print large volumes of high-quality business documents while making huge savings on CPP and TCO with this refillable and easy to use 4-in-1 MegaTank-equipped MAXIFY GX printer with ADF, Wi-Fi and Ethernet.

Brilliant productivity, best-in-class CPP and TCO
Cost per page (CPP) is the amount of money that it takes to print a single page. This is determined by dividing the cost of the ink by the page yield.

The total cost of ownership (TCO) is a calculation of what a printer would cost you based on the initial purchase cost of hardware plus the costs of ink over a fixed period.

Low running costs, brilliant productivity
With a full set of ink bottles producing up to 14,000 prints, this high-performance, high-volume MegaTank printer delivers huge savings on the total cost of ownership and cost per page. That’s a smart investment for any home office.
