Canon PIXMA iP6220D
Trusted Reviews reviews the Canon PIXMA iP6220D, and finds that you can print more pages than Canon claims before seeing a drop-off in print quality. Despite this, however, “Even though it printed a comparatively high number of pages, running costs are not that good, because of the relatively high costs of consumables. The cheapest we could find the CL-51 and CL-52 high yield cartridges for was £19.71 and £16.00, which is dear enough, but when you add in the cost of Canon glossy photo paper, at 38p an A4 sheet, you’re left with a five per cent plain page cost of 4.85p and a 30 per cent colour photo cost of a whacking 46p. For comparison, equivalent Epson glossy photo paper can be found for around 17p per A4 sheet.”
ITReviews reviews the Canon iP6220D and concludes, “As photo printers go the iP6220D is relatively cheap yet it has a long list of connections and interfaces and print quality is very good. The build quality is a bit flimsy and the front cover and card reader flaps can smack into each other if you’re not careful, but when you consider the features, speed and price that’s a minor problem.”
