Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon PIXMA iP6210D Photo PrinterCustomer Review: A little disappointed in my printer upgrade Summary: 4 Stars
I have been using a Canon i550 for several years now printing calendars for my family around xmas time. Each calendar is 13 pages and I print about 20 of them (13 x 20 x 2 sides = 520) at high resolution. I use a lot of ink and the Canon cartridges are easy to refill. The print head died on the i550, so I searched for a new Canon that had similar ink cartridges to refill.
Several of the PIXMA series have cartridges that look the same with the small difference that they have a chip on them. Instead of doing a visual check of the cartridge to determine if ink is low, the chip tells the printer driver after so many prints. Lame, but manageable !
The i550 had 1200 nozzles (if I remember correctly) and the iP6210D has 4800 (again, if I remember correctly). Anyway, I was expecting prints to be much better than the i550. The prints seemed to be about the same, so the extra nozzles didn't seem to make much difference.
The form factor is about the same, but there are a lot more buttons and features available. I don't ever print directly from memory card, so a lot of the features I don't use.
I was also hoping that the print speed of the borderless 8.5 x 11 prints that I use for the calendar would be faster. This printer doesn't seem to print much faster than the older Canon.
Overall it's a good printer, but the quality probably isn't much better than one of the lower end PIXMA printers.
Description of Canon PIXMA iP6210D Photo PrinterEasy Digital Photos at Home The PIXMA iP6210D Photo Printer combines beautiful image quality with exceptional printing versatility. One key to its impressive performance: Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) uses an innovative print head with 2,304 nozzles that eject consistent, precise ink droplets as small as two picoliters. It's simple: more nozzles with high accuracy equal amazing results. This patented technology produces an outstanding resolution of up to 4,800 x 1,200 dpi, for superb detail and photo-realism. And for increased color accuracy, high-intensity Photo Cyan and Photo Magenta have been added to the conventional four inks. You'll be amazed at your photo results. High performance doesn't stop there. You'll be able to print borderless photos with the look and feel of conventional photographs, in 4" x 6", 5" x 7" and 8.5" x 11" sizes. Now let's talk speed: printing a beautiful photo lab quality 4"x 6" borderless photo takes approximately 60 seconds. Plus, the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface enables the fastest photo transfers possible from your computer.
