The Canon iP4700 is an inkjet printer that brings together advanced printing technologies and versatile features, making it an excellent choice for home and small office users. Launched as part of Canon's iP series, this printer is designed for those who require high-quality photo printing as well as everyday document printing.

One of the standout features of the Canon iP4700 is its ability to print at an impressive maximum resolution of 9600 x 2400 dpi, which ensures that images come out sharp, vibrant, and detailed. The printer utilizes Canon’s FINE (Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering) technology, which features a high-density print head with 512 nozzles for black ink and 1280 nozzles for color inks. This technology helps achieve finer details and smoother gradations in prints, making it ideal for photo enthusiasts.

The iP4700 supports both borderless printing and various paper sizes, including A4, Letter, and 4 x 6-inch formats, allowing users to create professional-quality prints without the need for trimming. Additionally, it offers duplex printing capabilities, enabling users to print on both sides of the paper automatically, which can save time and reduce paper consumption.

Canon incorporates a user-friendly interface into the iP4700, with a simple control panel that allows for easy navigation through settings and functions. The printer also supports various connectivity options, including USB and PictBridge, which enables direct printing from compatible cameras without needing a computer.

Another impressive aspect of the Canon iP4700 is its compatibility with various media types, including glossy photo paper, matte paper, and printable CDs/DVDs. This versatility allows users to explore creative printing options and expand their projects beyond standard documents.

The Canon iP4700 is also recognized for its efficient ink usage, featuring individual ink tanks for each color. This means that users can replace only the color that runs out, reducing waste and overall printing costs. The ink cartridges are available in both standard and high-capacity sizes, giving users the flexibility to choose based on their printing volume needs.

Overall, the Canon iP4700 stands out as a reliable and versatile inkjet printer that delivers exceptional print quality while offering a range of features suited for various printing tasks.
