Canon PIXMA G3410 is available at Mascom International for KSh 21,500, a three-in-one ink tank printer with Wi-Fi, a flatbed scanner and refillable GI-490 ink bottles. It is brand new and sealed. The Canon PIXMA G3410 prints black text at about 8.8 images per minute and colour at about 5.0, with resolution up to 4800 x 1200 dpi. Instead of cartridges, it feeds from four built-in tanks that you top up from bottles. You can see it print at our store in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for households, university students and small offices across Kenya, the Canon PIXMA G3410 handles the steady printing that cartridge machines make expensive. Think KRA returns, eCitizen forms, school assignments, invoices and the odd family photo. Cartridge printers often run dry after a few hundred pages, which means another trip to town and another bill. One set of GI-490 bottles on this printer is rated by Canon for about 6,000 black pages and 7,000 colour pages. A student at Kenyatta University or a sole trader in Westlands can print for months before buying ink again.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that hand over a box and wish you luck, Mascom International sets up the Canon PIXMA G3410 on your Wi-Fi and phone before you leave. Customers across Nairobi tell us the biggest relief is predictable spending: ink becomes a once-in-a-while purchase instead of a monthly one. The Canon PIXMA G3410 also comes with Canon's own ink in the box and a 12-month warranty handled in the CBD. Walk in to watch it print a test page, or order the Canon PIXMA G3410 for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in the country.
Common Questions About the Canon PIXMA G3410
How much is the Canon PIXMA G3410 in Kenya?
The Canon PIXMA G3410 costs KSh 21,500 at Mascom International in Nairobi, brand new and sealed. That price covers the printer, a full set of four GI-490 ink bottles, the power cord and a 12-month warranty. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you hand over the money only after the box reaches you. If you want quicker printing and Apple AirPrint for iPhones, the Canon PIXMA G3430 sits KSh 3,000 higher at KSh 24,500 in the same store.
How many pages does the Canon PIXMA G3410 print before it needs more ink?
Canon rates one GI-490 black bottle at about 6,000 A4 pages and each colour bottle at about 7,000 pages on the Canon PIXMA G3410. For pictures, each colour bottle covers about 2,000 prints at 10 x 15 cm. These are Canon's test figures, so full-page graphics and photos use ink faster. An office printing 200 pages a month would take around 30 months to empty the black bottle. Message Mascom International on WhatsApp when you need genuine GI-490 refills.
Should I buy the Canon PIXMA G3410 or pay more for the Canon PIXMA G3470?
The Canon PIXMA G3410 saves you KSh 4,500 against the Canon PIXMA G3470 at KSh 26,000, but the newer model is faster. Canon rates the G3470 at about 11 ipm black and 6.0 ipm colour, against 8.8 and 5.0 here. The G3470 also adds AirPrint, ID card copying, up to 99 copies per job and colour choices. Pick the Canon PIXMA G3410 if price comes first and your printing is moderate. Pick the G3470 for a busy family or office desk.
Can the Canon PIXMA G3410 print from my phone without a computer?
Yes, the Canon PIXMA G3410 prints straight from Android and iPhone handsets through the Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app over Wi-Fi. Android phones can also use Mopria, which is built into most recent handsets. Access Point mode lets a phone connect to the printer directly when there is no router, useful in a shop or a rented room without home internet. PIXMA Cloud Link lets you print from online services. Our team can install the app on your phone in store.
Will the Canon PIXMA G3410 cope with KPLC power cuts and dust in Kenya?
The Canon PIXMA G3410 draws only about 11 watts while copying and about 1.2 watts on standby, so a small UPS can carry it through a short KPLC outage. Plug it into a surge protector, because voltage spikes when power returns are the usual cause of dead boards in Nairobi offices. It accepts 100-240 V, matching Kenyan mains. In dusty areas like Industrial Area, cover it when idle and keep the paper tray closed. Run a nozzle check after long breaks.
Is the Canon PIXMA G3410 good for printing photos at home?
The Canon PIXMA G3410 prints borderless photos from 10 x 15 cm up to A4, and a postcard-size picture takes about 60 seconds. It accepts Canon photo paper up to 275 g/m², heavy enough for certificates and greeting cards. My Image Garden software helps arrange layouts on a computer and can even pull still frames from Full HD video. Colour is printed through a single tri-colour head, so it suits family albums and school projects rather than paid studio work.
Does the Canon PIXMA G3410 scan and copy well enough for an office?
The Canon PIXMA G3410 has a flatbed CIS scanner with 600 x 1200 dpi optical resolution and handles pages up to 216 x 297 mm. A colour test page scans in about 19 seconds. Copying runs at about 3.5 ipm, with the first copy out in roughly 24 seconds and up to 20 copies per job. There is no automatic document feeder, so each page goes on the glass by hand. That is fine for IDs, receipts and letters, not 50-page contracts.
Who should buy the Canon PIXMA G3410 and who should skip it?
The Canon PIXMA G3410 suits families, students and one-person businesses printing up to a few hundred pages a month on a tight budget. Skip it if your office prints long documents daily, needs fax or wants automatic two-sided printing. The HP LaserJet Pro MFP 3103fdw at KSh 53,000, in stock at Mascom International, adds fax and duplex printing for that kind of desk. Skip it too if you print colour all day; the Canon PIXMA G3470 is quicker.
Technical Specifications
Print Engine and Output Quality
- Two FINE print heads, one black and one tri-colour — Canon's fine-nozzle heads place tiny droplets for sharp text and smooth shading.
- Resolution up to 4800 x 1200 dpi — dots per inch; a higher count gives crisper small fonts on forms and finer detail in pictures.
- Black printing at about 8.8 images per minute under Canon's ISO test — a 10-page assignment finishes in a little over a minute.
- Colour printing at about 5.0 images per minute — a five-page report with charts and logos comes out in roughly one minute.
- Borderless 10 x 15 cm photo in about 60 seconds — edge-to-edge prints without a white frame, finished while you wait at the desk.
Paper Handling and Media
- Rear tray holds up to 100 sheets of plain A4 — load it in the morning and most homes will not touch it again that day.
- Plain paper from 64 to 105 g/m² and Canon photo paper up to 275 g/m² — thin copy paper through thick glossy card all feed fine.
- Sizes include A4, A5, B5, Letter, Legal, 10 x 15 cm, 13 x 18 cm, 20 x 25 cm and DL envelopes — forms, flyers and letters covered.
- Borderless output on A4, Letter, 20 x 25 cm, 13 x 18 cm, 13 x 13 cm and 10 x 15 cm — handy for certificates and framed photos.
- Flatbed scanner glass takes originals up to 216 x 297 mm — passports, ID cards, receipts and A4 letters all fit flat on the glass.
Connectivity and Wireless Setup
- Wi-Fi to IEEE 802.11 b/g/n with WPA2 security — joins most home and office routers so several people can print from different rooms.
- Hi-Speed USB with a USB-B port — a wired link to one desktop computer when Wi-Fi is unreliable or not allowed by office policy.
- Access Point mode — your phone or laptop connects straight to the printer, no router needed, ideal for a small shop or hostel room.
- PIXMA Cloud Link — print directly from supported online services without first downloading the file to a computer.
- Mobile support for iOS and Android through the Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app, with Mopria on Android — print photos and PDFs from your handset.
Software and Controls
- 1.2-inch segment LCD on the front panel — shows copy count, paper and error codes so you can solve small problems without a computer.
- MP Driver with a scanning utility — saves scans as PDF or image files ready to email, upload or attach to an online application.
- My Image Garden with Full HD Movie Print — arranges photo layouts and turns a still frame from your phone video into a printed picture.
- Quick Menu and Easy-WebPrint EX — one-click access to common tasks and cleaner printouts of web pages without wasted blank sheets.
- Desktop support for Windows 10, 8.1 and 7 SP1 and Chrome OS — runs with most office PCs and Chromebooks used in Kenyan schools.
Consumables and Running Cost
- GI-490 ink bottles in black, cyan, magenta and yellow — you pour each bottle into its own tank instead of swapping cartridges.
- Black yield of about 6,000 A4 pages per bottle — at 20 pages a day, five days a week, one bottle lasts over a year.
- Colour yield of about 7,000 A4 pages per bottle — colour charts, letterheads and school projects stop being something to ration.
- About 2,000 colour photos at 10 x 15 cm per set of colour bottles — enough for years of family albums and passport-style prints.
- Power use of about 11 W copying, 1.2 W standby and 0.2 W off — gentle on your monthly KPLC token budget and on small UPS units.
