New Generation Replacement for Canon MAXIFY GX5060
The Canon MAXIFY GX5560 continues the successful GX5060 concept as a dedicated A4 single-function MegaTank business printer while introducing important improvements for higher-volume office environments.
For existing GX5060 users, the upgrade is particularly straightforward because the GX5560 continues to use the same Canon GI-66 BK/C/M/Y ink bottle family. Existing genuine GI-66 replacement ink stock can therefore continue to be used with the newer printer.

|---|---|---|
| Generation | Previous Generation | New Generation |
| Functions | Print Only | Print Only |
| Maximum Paper Size | A4 | A4 |
| Black Print Speed | Approx. 24 ipm | Approx. 24 ipm |
| Colour Print Speed | Approx. 15.5 ipm | Approx. 15.5 ipm |
| Print Resolution | 600 × 1200 dpi | 600 × 1200 dpi |
| Front Paper Cassettes | 1 × 250 sheets | 2 × 250 sheets |
| Rear Tray | 100 sheets | 100 sheets |
| Total Input Capacity | Up to 350 sheets | Up to 600 sheets |

| Automatic Duplex | Yes | Yes |
| Ink System | Canon GI-66 | Canon GI-66 |
| Connectivity | Wi-Fi / Ethernet / USB | Wi-Fi / Ethernet / USB |
The biggest practical upgrade is paper handling: the GX5560 adds a second 250-sheet cassette, increasing total paper input capacity from approximately 350 sheets on the GX5060 to as much as 600 sheets on the GX5560.
Dual 250-Sheet Paper Cassettes + 100-Sheet Rear Tray
One of the GX5560's strongest business features is its flexible three-way paper input system.
- Upper Cassette: up to 250 sheets
- Lower Cassette: up to 250 sheets
- Rear Tray: up to 100 sheets of plain paper
- Total Maximum Input: up to 600 sheets
The dual-cassette configuration allows businesses to keep different paper types or sizes loaded at the same time. For example, one cassette can hold standard A4 office paper while the second is used for letterhead or another frequently used media type, leaving the rear tray available for specialist media.
Versatile Business Media Handling
The GX5560 is designed for more than standard office documents. Its flexible rear feed supports a wide range of business media including compatible labels, envelopes, delivery slips, glossy media and other specialist paper types.
This makes the GX5560 particularly useful in retail, logistics, warehousing, pharmacy and other commercial environments where one printer may need to produce several different types of documents.
Fast Business Printing – Up to 24 ipm
The Canon MAXIFY GX5560 delivers fast business document printing at approximately:
- 24.0 ipm – Black & White A4 documents
- 15.5 ipm – Colour A4 documents
These speeds make the GX5560 suitable for busy workplaces producing invoices, quotations, reports, correspondence, forms, labels and other everyday business documents.
High-Yield Canon MegaTank Ink System
Instead of conventional disposable ink cartridges, the GX5560 uses Canon's refillable MegaTank system with high-capacity GI-66 pigment ink bottles.
The four-colour pigment ink system is designed for durable business documents with sharp text and strong colour output.
- GI-66BK – Black Pigment Ink Bottle
- GI-66C – Cyan Pigment Ink Bottle
- GI-66M – Magenta Pigment Ink Bottle
- GI-66Y – Yellow Pigment Ink Bottle

Up to 6,000 Black / 14,000 Colour Pages
The high-capacity MegaTank system provides excellent page yields for businesses with regular printing requirements.
- Standard Mode: up to approximately 6,000 B&W pages
- Standard Mode: up to approximately 14,000 colour pages
- Economy Mode: up to approximately 9,000 B&W pages
- Economy Mode: up to approximately 21,000 colour pages
Actual page yield varies depending on document content, print settings, operating conditions and other factors. Black and colour page yields should not be combined.
Automatic Duplex Printing
Built-in automatic two-sided printing helps businesses reduce paper consumption when producing multi-page reports, invoices, manuals, training documents and general office paperwork.
Combined with the large paper capacity, automatic duplex printing makes the GX5560 particularly well suited to unattended higher-volume print jobs.
2.7-Inch Colour Touchscreen
The GX5560 features a 2.7-inch colour touch LCD display, providing an easy-to-use interface for accessing printer settings, network functions and maintenance operations directly from the printer.
This is a notable usability improvement over the previous GX5060 generation.
Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB Connectivity
The Canon MAXIFY GX5560 offers flexible connectivity for both individual workstations and shared business networks:
- Wi-Fi wireless networking
- 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless LAN support
- Wi-Fi Direct / Direct Connection
- Wired Ethernet LAN
- Hi-Speed USB-B
- Canon PRINT mobile printing
- Apple AirPrint compatible
- Mopria compatible
For permanent office installations, wired Ethernet provides a stable shared network connection, while Wi-Fi and mobile printing provide additional flexibility.
Enhanced Business Security
The GX5560 has been designed with business security and data privacy in mind. Canon includes enhanced network and device security features to help businesses manage printer access and protect information in shared office environments.
This makes the GX5560 a stronger choice than a basic home inkjet printer for businesses requiring a dedicated shared colour printer.
User-Replaceable Maintenance Cartridge
The MAXIFY GX5560 incorporates a user-replaceable maintenance cartridge, helping reduce printer downtime and allowing routine maintenance to be performed without requiring the printer to be sent away for basic servicing.
