Canon slashes prices on MegaTank G3270 and Pixma TS6520 printers at Amazon

Canon's MegaTank G3270 drops to $160 and the Pixma TS6520 to $79 at Amazon, per TechRadar's back-to-school deals.

The G3270 is TechRadar's top budget ink tank printer, praised for crisp text and vibrant photos. The included ink is rated for up to 6,000 black-and-white or 7,700 color pages, and Canon estimates it can last up to two years depending on usage. The printer combines color printing with a flatbed scanner and copier, supports Wi-Fi and USB, and offers print speeds of 11 pages per minute in black and six in color, with a maximum color resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 dpi. In the UK, the same model is sold as the MegaTank G3570, priced at £178 (was £189) at Amazon. TechRadar noted that the UK listing name incorrectly references a Canon DSLR camera, but the item is a printer sold by Amazon.

Senior printer editor Jim gave the G3270 a four-star review, saying: "Canon's entry-level MegaTank AIO is aimed at the home office with few features, but lots of bottled ink and a very low running cost." He added that it prints on media from square photo paper to fabric patches, and that the scanner bed and Wi-Fi work well with Canon's companion app.

The Pixma TS6520 is a compact all-in-one that handles printing, scanning, and copying. It includes automatic two-sided printing, a 1.42-inch OLED display for checking ink levels and adjusting settings, and wireless connectivity through the Canon PRINT app, Apple AirPrint, and Mopria Print Service. TechRadar said it has not reviewed this specific model hands-on, so the recommendation leans on Canon's general reputation with the Pixma line.

On price, Amazon's $159.99 for the G3270 is $89 below its usual $248.99, although TechRadar said it has sold for as low as $109 last year. The TS6520's $70.99 discount works out to 47 percent off, one of the larger cuts seen on a Canon Pixma model. Its Black Friday low was $64, and it typically fluctuates between $100 and $140 during the year.

Both printers have trade-offs. The G3270 lacks automatic two-sided printing and an automatic document feeder, while the TS6520 also has no automatic document feeder and relies on cartridges, so ongoing ink costs should be considered for frequent printing. TechRadar said the G3270 is suited to families, students, and home offices that want a straightforward machine, but not high-speed office workloads; the TS6520 fits users who want reliable, no-frills printing with automatic duplexing.
