[REVIEW:] Canon iPF6300 review – Keith Cooper (Northlight Images)

Canon UK recently lent us an iPF6300 large format printer. This is their newest 24″ wide printer and supersedes the iPF6100 that we reviewed last year.

Keith has been putting it through its paces, looking at how it’s different from the previous model and how it fares for someone looking to move up from an A3+ desktop printer. As a photographer and fine art printer, Keith is concentrating more on these aspects of its use rather than production or proofing uses. — Keith Cooper

[REVIEW:] Epson Stylus Photo 1410 review – James Hutchinson (TechWorld)

Posted on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 in Printers, Reviews
Viewed 71 times

Epson’s Stylus Photo 1410 A3+ photo printer uses dye-based inks, making it suitable for glossy photos and presentation documents. It won’t feed roll paper like the Stylus Photo R2880, but it’s cheaper and sits at a tempting price point for amateur photographers. Direct CD/DVD printing, brilliant output and dye-based consumables make this a viable choice for glossy photos and in-house production of marketing materials. The rear paper tray accepts a maximum paper thickness of 255gsm, which is suitable for most conventional media, but not particularly heavy stock. — James Hutchinson

[REVIEW:] Epson Stylus Photo R2880 – M. David Stone (PCMAG.com)

Posted on Friday, July 2, 2010 in Printers, Reviews

If the only thing the Epson Stylus Photo R2880 ($799.99 direct) had going for it was that it prints professional-quality photos and graphics, that would be enough to make it attractive. But it’s also surprisingly fast, prints on a variety of fine art papers in addition to more common stock, and can print on up to 13- by 19-inch cut paper as well as at larger size using roll paper. All of this comes at a price that makes the R2880 affordable for serious amateurs as well as professional graphic artists and photographers on tight budgets, which puts the printer well into Editors’ Choice territory. — M.

[REVIEW:] Epson Stylus Photo PX810FW 4-in-1: Review – Adam Smith (Photoshop Daily)

Posted on Friday, June 25, 2010 in Printers, Reviews
Viewed 81 times

The Epson Stylus Photo PX810FW is a machine described as elegant and intelligent, and we can only assume these apply in a technological sense. Aesthetically the PX810FW is anything but elegant. The footprint of this machine will take over many home desk spaces, challenging most studio settings. It does have nice curves and a contemporary gloss finish that complement its 19.8-centimetre viewing display – 13.5 centimetres bigger than its predecessor, the PX710FW. However, weighing in at 11.3kg, with dimensions of 466 x 458 x 198mm, it is comparatively bulkier than its nearest competitor, the Canon PIXMA MP990. — Adam Smith

[REVIEW:] Sony DPP-F700 Compact Photo Printer Review – Richard Baguley (PrinterInfo.com)

Posted on Friday, June 18, 2010 in Printers, Reviews
Viewed 112 times

The DPP-F700 is a hybrid device: part digital photo frame and part printer. And, like most hybrids, that means it has both the good and the bad from both types of device. We found that it produced decent quality prints (albeit with slightly inaccurate color), but that it was rather awkward to use as both a printer and a digital photo frame. The DPP-F700 costs $199. — Richard Baguley

[REVIEW:] Epson Stylus Photo PX710W – TechAlps

Epson has always bucked the inkjet printing trend, using cool-running piezo-electric print heads to get the ink onto the paper, instead of boiling it in the conventional thermal fashion.

The company claims this gives greater freedom when it comes to formulating inks, as the consideration of a rapid boiling and cooling cycle is taken out of the equation. — TechAlps
