![]() The Epson Expression Photo XP-8600 is a US letter/A4 photo printer. The imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 is most likely to find a place in a photographer’s studio alongside a more compact photo printer for print runs of smaller photographs. This is the same for big or small prints. After each print, a small amount of ink is used for maintenance tasks. It also doesn’t make sense to use a photo printer this size for a large number of smaller prints. Ink costs are quite low per print, but a complete set will come to more than $600. If that’s a big part of your work, then this probably isn’t for you. It is perhaps surprising that a printer this substantial can’t produce longer landscape prints. This overcomes any slight curl in the medium. One clever feature is that the paper is held firm on the platen by a vacuum system. You would expect top-class prints at this price, and this Canon will easily produce exhibition-quality prints. It has 10 pigment-based inks and Canon’s chroma optimizer for reducing bronzing and gloss discrepancies. Canon has aimed the imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 at the serious photographer. And it weighs 71.2 lbs (32 kg), so that desk needs to be sturdy. This is just about the biggest photo printer you can get that is designed to go on a desk or table. If you find yourself eating through cartridges and your bank balance, the Canon PIXMA G620 MegaTank should be near the top of your list. There are printers with better print speeds, from Canon and others. Print quality is very good, especially on glossy paper. There is no touchscreen, but there’s an LCD readout and user-friendly buttons. It has a scanner that allows you to copy and scan. The maximum weight of the paper is 105 gsm, which is much lower than some others. Paper up to 47” (1.2 m) can be loaded from the single top-rear paper feed to print panoramas. This probably isn’t the printer for you if you switch frequently between printing photos and letters. There is no pigment ink for ordinary printing or built-in paper cassettes. The Pixma G620 MegaTank is clearly aimed at photographers rather than as a multi-function printer. They also have nozzles that will only fit in the appropriate tank. But the Canon bottles don’t need squeezing and stop flowing when the tank is full. The six ink cartridges comprise CMYK plus gray and red. If you print a lot, the money you save on ink will cover the upfront cost of the printer. This reduces printing costs to roughly 10% of equivalent cartridge printers.
