Canon i9950 Ink Cartridges

Canon i9950 Printer Review

Using the advanced inkjet technology that provides top quality documents at an affordable rate, the Canon i9950 is designed specifically to be used in a home, both for personal reasons and for work. The text documents will print out sharp and easily legible, the graphics will have precise lines and bright colors and photos that will vividly bring to life the images captured. The i9950 is compact and simple to operate with labeled buttons and an LCD screen that displays job progress, setting options and Canon i9950 ink levels.

Full color documents can print at a rate of 12 pages per minute and black-and-white prints have an output rate of 16 pages per minute. As many as 150 sheets can be held in the standard input tray and various media types are compatible such as envelopes, transparencies, photo paper, glossy paper and iron-on transfers. A bonus feature of the i9950 that many inkjet printers do not have is a tray specifically for DVD and CD printing.

A total number of 8 colors of Canon i9950 ink are able to be used in this unit, which is double the standard inkjet system, which only used cyan, magenta, yellow and black. The additional Canon i9950 ink cartridges hold photo magenta, photo cyan, green and red printer ink. Having the extra colors ensures the best possible quality comparable to photos printed at a lab. Each Canon i9950 ink cartridge can yield up to 420 pages and have compatible versions available from third party vendors.

The maximum resolution that can be created by the i9950 is 4800x1200 dpi, which is beyond professional standard. The available connection options are USB, memory card slots and PictBridge, which is a port to connect a digital camera directly into the printer, eliminating the need to use a computer for photo printing.
