Perhaps you're ready to take those homemade Christmas cards to the next level? Print them yourself! Who doesn't love an early present?

Canon PIXMA iP4920, MG5320 bring filters, 'creativity' to photo printing
Canon's just released a pair of new PIXMA printers that seem to rely on your lack of Photoshop knowledge. For the PIXMA MG5320 Wireless All-In-One and iP4920 Inkjet Photo Printers, functionality is pretty straight forward, but the outfit's hoping to reel you with the promise that the pair brings "creativity to a whole new level." That "enhanced creativity" comes in the form of "Fun Filter Effects," a set of elementary photo filters, like Fish-Eye and Toy Camera, and the ability to add soft focus and blur backgrounds. What's more, the MG5320 also allows you to print sans-PC from the company's PIXMA Cloud Link. If fisheye functionality is enough to get your creative juices, and cash money, flowing, the iP4920 and MG5320 are now available for pre-order for $100 and $150, respectively, at the source links below. A rather uninspiring press release awaits you after the break.
