Digital Home Thoughts: CANON PIXMA MX882 Bridges the Digital with the Physical

"Printers don't often get us hot and bothered, but Canon's PIXMA MX882 certainly has us intrigued. The main draw is that Dual Function panel up front, which combines a 3-inch LCD with a unique set of hard keys that have dynamic displays below that change depending on what function you're trying to access."

The paperless society is a myth. While paper is on its way out, especially when everyone and their hamster has some sort of connected electronic device, there still is a demand for scanning and printing and the MX882 looks like a pretty good choice for all-in-ones. It has more features and abilities than office printers five or ten years ago! I am also really glad to see that Ethernet connectivity (and Wi-Fi too) is becoming more common. In a world of multi-computer households, the one computer, one printer model seems wasteful so making multi-user printers standard is a Good Thing. Of course, that is if you still print stuff. I suspect that now that tablets are taking over the world, there will be even less that will need to be in dead tree format.
