A pepped-up sibling for the PIXMA MG5150, this machine includes worthwhile improvements in several areas.

A good all-rounder, but rival printers are better options if you favour high quality or speed over other attributes.

Review : Canon Pixma MG5250 Multi-Function Printer

For many people the single function inkjet &lt;b&gt;printer&lt;/b&gt; is giving way to the &lt;b&gt;multi-function&lt;/b&gt; machine that, as well as printing, copies and scans. The &lt;b&gt;Canon&lt;/b&gt; MG 5250 is the latest such device and is targeted at those who want a SoHo (small office/home office) machine that is easy to use and gives good all round results.

This mid-range PIXMA multifunction device prints slowly, but it is a cheap way to produce monochrome documents
