Xiaomi has today announced its new Mi
Inkjet All-In-One Wireless Printer in the Chinese market. The device, which is
priced at 499 yuan (US$ 70) is currently up for pre-order with a
deposit of 50 yuan (US$ 7) and will go on sale from 11th June. This new wireless
inkjet printer from Xiaomi comes with three modes of operation — printing,
copying, and scanning. Although one of the features of the printer is wireless
connectivity, it still has supports for wired USB connection.
The company says that this new printer
uses high-quality imported ink which has no odor. As per the brand, the
standard full-capacity ink cartridge can be used to print around 480 pages in
back and white and about 150 color pages.
Further, Xiaomi adds that it also supports
copying and scanning in both modes — color and back and white for more accuracy
of handwriting. Also, the scanned files can also be saved and archived to the
smartphone using an application.
The new Mi Inkjet All-In-One Wireless
printer has a visual panel on the device for settings and the company says that
the drivers will be automatically installed on the computer when it is
connected for the first time.
It also comes with support for mobile
printing for both the platforms — Android and iOS. As for the pricing of the
replacement cartridge, the company says that both — black and white and color
cartridges are priced at 69 yuan each which is about US$ 9.6.
Xiaomi is already selling three printers
in its home market — Pocket Printer, Photo Printer, and an Inkjet Printer. This
new product marks the fourth printer from Xiaomi in China but the product
category is yet to make its debut in other regions.
