Introduction

Quad-core power
A 1.2 GHz quad-core processor with 2 GB of standard memory gives you the power to do a combination of faxing, printing, copying and scanning for maximum productivity. And you can be confident that your complex file with images, charts and small print will look just as the way that you designed it.

Energy efficiency
Make every watt count with energy management features that reduce power consumption, whether the printer is active or in sleep mode. Lower fusing temperature and automatic management of processor cores based on workload help to meet rigorous ENERGY STAR 2.0 requirements. That benefits the planet and your budget.

Get more done
When performance meets simplicity, you get more done. The intuitive 10-cm tablet-like colour touch screen makes your tasks easy, and it’s the gateway to built-in productivity apps that save time and improve efficiency. With 44-pages-per-minute printing, and a skilled scanner that can accurately capture up to 84 images per minute, even with mixed originals, you’ll get what you need in a flash.

The definition of clear text
Some laser printers struggle to print grey text that’s easy to read - not the MX520 series. Its innovative font outlining technology makes even the smallest grey text crisp and clear.
