Now we will take a look at the MX360. This four-in-one can print, scan, copy, and fax and connects to a computer via HighSpeed USB 2.0 (note that the MX410 has wireless connectivity). It has an automatic document feeder that can fit up to 30 sheets and a 100-sheet rear feed tray. We tested the MX360 and found that it can print up to 8 black and white pages per minute under the default settings. The MX360 has a list price of $79.99; check out our full review below to find out if this is the suitable inkjet for your office at that price.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><br />

We tested the MX360 and found that it can print up to 8 black and white pages per minute under the default settings. The MX360 has a list price of $79.99; check out our full review below to find out if this is the suitable inkjet for your office at that price.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><br />

Adobe has added DNG Camera Profiling to both releases. This technology allows custom camera colour profiles, or looks, to be created by the user and saved. It also allows profiles matching the creative styles built in to cameras to be replicated. Adobe released a complete set of such Camera Profiles for Nikon and Canon models, in addition to basic Standard Profiles for all supported makes and models, through Adobe Labs, at the same time as the Lightroom v2 release. This technology is open to all programs compliant with the DNG file format standard.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 6.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 4.8pt;"><br />

Now we will take a look at the MX360. This four-in-one can print, scan, copy, and fax and connects to a computer via HighSpeed USB 2.0 (note that the MX410 has wireless connectivity). It has an automatic document feeder that can fit up to 30 sheets and a 100-sheet rear feed tray. We tested the MX360 and found that it can print up to 8 black and white pages per minute under the default settings. The MX360 has a list price of $79.99; check out our full review below to find out if this is the suitable inkjet for your office at that price.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%;"><br />
