Canon PIXMA MG3150 Driver Download

IJ Start Cannon– The Canon PIXMA MG3150 is a big, shiny black printer with a flatbed scanner on top. It has a front panel that folds down to become a 100-sheet paper tray. The output tray slides out from the front, but it’s too short for printed pages. To stop papers from falling, there’s a swiveling extension and a flip-up tab. It works, but it’s a bit complicated.

At the back, there’s a USB port, but wireless is a better choice. Setting up wireless is easy with WPS, but the printer only has a small LED display. You need to follow instructions on your computer screen to connect, which makes it a bit tricky. The control panel is simple but does its job well.

Printing Speeds and Quality

The PIXMA MG3150 prints slightly faster than its sibling, the MG2150. It prints 9.2 pages per minute (ppm) for black and 5.2 ppm for color. In tests, it printed 7.1 ppm for black text and 7.5 ppm for a 20-page document. Color printing is slower, at 1.8 ppm, with pauses of up to 12 seconds per page.

The printer can print on both sides of the paper, but it’s very slow. A 20-page document took over 10 minutes to print double-sided. Other tasks, like color copying and photo printing, are faster but still not quick.

Print quality is good. Black text is clear, and draft text is light but easy to read. Color graphics are smooth and bright, but color copies are less vivid than the originals. Photo prints are not the best, with too much emphasis on bright colors and loss of detail in darker areas.

Ink Costs and Maintenance

The printer uses two ink cartridges, available in standard and high-yield versions. With high-yield cartridges, printing costs are 3.9p per black page and 8.5p per color page. Maintenance is simple—just replace the cartridges every few months.
