 Canon PIXMA iX7000 Printer Review

The Canon PIXMA iX7000 is actually Canon's second business-focussed A3 inkjet printer, and it's really just about the most expensive available on the market.

Substantial, slow and noisy, the iX7000 delivers automatic duplex as well as network connectivity, and it also makes fantastic quality A4 and A3 output.

The iX7000 provides three media input choices: a cassette, a rear tray and a single-sheet manual feed. The input cassette lacks changeable guides to accommodate media of different widths, and also the height adjustment does not match a single thing more compact than A4.

The rear paper tray can just be selected as a paper source whenever printing pictures and isn't accessible while using the normal print dialogue. There's no method to alter the paper source straight from the iX7000 either (this makes it difficult to pick your preferred input source while printing on a network, unless of course you add the printer drivers).

The printer has both USB 2. and Ethernet connections. Its other standout aspect is surely an automated duplexer, which will print double-sided A3 documents as well as A4. The other A3 inkjet to provide an auto duplexer, Brother's MFC-6890CDW, is only able to print double-sided A4 documents.

The Canon PIXMA iX7000 printer cartridges are pigment-based which supplies radiant colours for both documents and also photographs. A clear ink is layered over printouts to avoid water deterioration and also fading.

Despite the fact the iX7000 can put ink to page quickly, it has a tendency to temporarily stop between pages. You need to take note that draft documents from the PIXMA iX7000 aren't the pale rush jobs that various other printers create. In fact, draft documents happen to be readable and may actually end up being useful for quickly producing documents regarding your office. In general the A3 inkjet printer prints relatively slowly, but can nonetheless spit out three to four A3 documents each and every minute, that's greater than what a number of the competition can claim.

Sadly, the iX7000 is especially loud. It creates a noticeable bang whenever it retrieves a page from the cassette, that'll grown to be annoying within a quiet office environment.

At its best, the iX7000 A3 inkjet printer produces radiant colours which are better suited to glossy media compared to matte paper. Normal A4 documents can appear inky and over-saturated, although they are still legible. It is not as apparent when documents are scaled to A3 (using the print drivers); text is exact as well as easily understandable across numerous font sizes.

The iX7000 really sticks out when ever making A4 photos: it creates really deep blacks and also radiant, exact colours with no aberrations. Regrettably, A3 photos tend to be to some degree without fine detail, which could be related to the relatively low 4800x1200 dpi print resolution.

Canon's PIXMA iX7000 A3 inkjet printer is not the very best option for creating business documents on matte media. Although auto duplexing along with Ethernet connectivity are certainly useful, limitations with media input as well as its print rates of speed together with all round output quality hinder this printer. Nevertheless, individuals looking for a networked printer exclusively for glossy presentation documents as well as the occasional A4 photo ought to benefit.
