With thousands of pages worth of ink included with the printer, the Smart Tank Pro 651 delivers high-quality prints for only a fraction of a cent per page. The HP Smart Tank Plus 651 is HP's answer to the Epson EcoTank and other printers that reduce ink costs by using refillable ink tanks instead of expensive cartridges. Even using high-capacity ink cartridges, the cost of printing was nearly 20 cents per page. Ink costs are above average and the addition of a fifth ink cartridge didn't help it on the operating costs. Though we loved the fast performance and great document print quality, the Canon may not be the best choice for high-volume printing. While the print quality on basic documents and copies look good, the versatile Pixma TR8620 offers excellent glossy photo prints – thanks to a 5-ink cartridge system – making it a smart choice if you include printing snapshots for a scrap book among your printer uses. Our only real complaint is that ink costs are a little high.īut where the Canon really shines is image quality. With both an automatic document feeder and a built-in duplexer, you'll enjoy quick and convenient copying and printing, and even fax capability.

All in all, the MP640 is a wonderfully versatile piece of kit.The Canon Pixma TR8620 is an office-oriented all-in-one inkjet printer with a healthy mix of great features, good performance and excellent image quality. Other luxuries include dual input trays for loading plain and photo paper, both of which can handle sizes up to A4, auto duplex printing and direct printing onto compatible CDs and DVDs. What's even more impressive is that, despite not featuring a traditional six-ink colour system, as used in most dedicated 'photo' inkjets, the MP640 produced more stunningly glorious and realistic photo output than any other A4 printer we've tested. Switching to photo printing, speeds are similarly brisk at just 19 seconds for a 6 x 4 photo in normal-quality photo mode and fractionally under two minutes for a borderless A4 photo in top-quality mode. This gives the ink a chance to dry sufficiently and avoid smudging when the next page hits the output tray.

In fact it's so fast that we found ourselves adjusting the default printer driver setting to lengthen the gap between subsequent pages for multi-page document printing. In normal-quality print mode, the MP640 outputs single page mono and colour A4 documents in just seven seconds and 16 seconds respectively. In practice, this is every bit as intuitive and quick to operate as a touchscreen, in line with the high levels of performance and convenience of the printer itself. Unlike the Lexmark Interact S605, the MP640 doesn't have a touchscreen but relies on a more conventional, yet generously proportioned, 7.5cm colour LCD, along with control buttons and a handy 'easy-scroll' wheel for standalone operation.

Colour rendition, contrast and brightness are unerringly accurate, Canon being somewhat of a pioneer when it comes to CIS (Contact Image Sensor) scanning, as used in most all-in-one printers and featured in the company's top-performing standalone flatbed scanners like the LiDE 100 and LiDE 200 models.Ī wide range of connectivity options includes USB 2.0, Ethernet and Wi-Fi, and there's also an optional Bluetooth adaptor for printing from mobile phones.
