The new Canon All-In-One printer also includes Auto Scan Mode, which automatically detects the size and type of content placed on the scanner glass; plus a self-opening paper output tray for intuitive, hassle-free printing.
Canon MP490 includes Auto Photo Fix II
Other new features designed to makes the Canon MP490 All-In-One even easier to use are Auto Photo Fix II, which offers automatic correction of underexposed images. It works by dividing the image into multiple zones then uses smart algorithms to then calculate the amount of underexposure in each zone and adjusts the image’s contrast, brightness and colour automatically to give users beautifully balanced results.
Canon Pixma MP490 features Easy-WebPrint EX
It’s joined by Easy-WebPrint EX - a software download available from the Canon website - that enables users to automatically clip chosen frames in a website page and then either print or save them to a computer.
