![]() ![]() For dens, dorm rooms, and micro offices that print a lot of photos, it's a worthy choice. Who It's ForĬanon's Pixma TR series all-in-ones target office productivity more than its photo-centric TS models, but the TR8620 straddles both worlds pretty nimbly. The Canon also offers versatile PC and mobile connectivity and a friendly touch-screen control panel. But its output is worth waiting for, with five inks (including pigment black) that produce brighter, more vibrant, and more accurate photos than four-ink office models, with less graininess and greater detail. Its ink-cartridge costs make printing more than a few hundred pages per month (especially black text pages) prohibitive. Its 20-sheet automatic document feeder lacks auto-duplexing, so you'll have to flip and reinsert double-sided documents. Read Our Full ReviewĪs its under-$200 price suggests, Canon's Pixma TR8620 is a low-volume inkjet printer/copier/scanner aimed at families and home offices instead of busy business workgroups. (At least as far as cartridge models go, rather than bulk-ink models like Epson's EcoTank series.) That's a winning combination. Whether you're making a USB, a Wi-Fi, or an Ethernet connection to a PC printing from an Android or iOS smartphone or scanning to or printing from a USB flash drive or SD card, the XP-7100 pairs great print quality with relatively low running costs. ![]() The Expression Premium XP-7100 also excels as a general-purpose all-in-one for copying and scanning, with robust connectivity and a 30-sheet, single-pass, auto-duplexing automatic document feeder (ADF) that frees you from having to shuffle pages of double-sided documents on and off the scanning glass by hand. Read Our Full ReviewĮpson's Small-in-One inkjets are famously affordable and capable photo-centric printers for families and home offices, taking little desk space to deliver five-ink prints (the CMYK quartet, plus a "photo black" ink) that outshine your local drugstore's offerings. For anything short of high-volume commercial printing, the SureColor is a sure thing. If you have to ask, you can't afford it, but if you need spectacular wide-format prints, panoramas, and banners, the P900 is actually something of a bargain. (There's also an Epson Print Layout plug-in that replaces Photoshop's Print dialog box.) Who It's For This magnificent machine generates brilliant colors and deep blacks (automatically switching between photo and matte black ink), with its UltraChrome PRO10 pigment inks more than fulfilling the promise of its ICC (International Color Consortium) profile and a control panel that lets you configure print jobs in ways that previously had to be done within Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom. Those who do will find Epson's SureColor P900 worth every penny-including the extra $250 for the roll adapter. Only professional photographers are likely to spend roughly $1,200 for a 10-ink freestanding printer capable of producing gallery-class 17-by-22-inch prints and 17-inch-wide banners almost 11 feet long.
