Frequently Asked Questions
What ink system does the MG7120 use, and why does it include a gray cartridge?
It uses six individual CLI-251/PGI-250 tanks — Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Gray, Black, and Pigment Black. The gray ink expands tonal range in monochrome and portrait photography, producing smoother shadow gradations than a five-ink system can achieve. You replace only the depleted tank, not a combined cartridge.
What wireless protocols does this printer support?
The MG7120 supports built-in 802.11 Wi-Fi, AirPrint (for iOS devices without drivers), Google Cloud Print, Wireless PictBridge for direct camera printing, and wired Ethernet. It covers effectively every mainstream connection scenario in a modern home or small office.
How does the 9600x2400 dpi spec translate to real print quality?
Maximum dpi is achieved at reduced print speed using fine droplet placement and the six-ink system. For photographic prints, this means visible detail in fine gradients and textures at close viewing distances — it's meaningful on 4x6 and 5x7 output, less so at larger sizes where viewing distance increases.
What is the practical throughput for documents vs. photos?
Black document output hits 15 ipm and color hits 10 ipm — respectable for a photo-oriented all-in-one. Borderless 4x6 photo output clocks at approximately 21 seconds per sheet, which is competitive in its class.
Does the MG7120 support scanning and copying, or only printing?
It is a full all-in-one — print, scan, and copy functions are all included. The scanner flatbed is suitable for document and photo scanning.
