The PIXMA G3100 is amazingly convenient with many ways to print wirelessly. With the Canon PRINT app², you can easily print photos and documents directly from your Apple or Android mobile devices.

In addition, the design of the ink bottles was made for an easier user experience that minimizes potential spills, leaks and stains.
