Canon G550 printer review A4 6 ink MegaTank printer. Printing test for G620/G650

Описание: Keith Cooper looks at the Canon G550 printer in an in depth review of its print capabilities and print quality. The G650/G620 are the same printer but with a scanner on top - for printing, they are the same as the G550.

The A4 sized printer has six refillable ink tanks and uses Canon Chromalife 100 dye based inks with grey and red inks in addition to the normal CMYK set.

The printer supports borderless printing and custom print sizes up to 1200mm in length. Also tested are greeting cards and there is a look at how colour management and profiles can dramatically improve both colour and black and white printing.
