Canon i9900 Photo Printer Review

Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.00 (out of 10)
The gap between consumer and professional inkjet printers is narrowing, with the introduction of affordable models that provide the user-friendly features consumers seek while delivering the output quality and sizes that professionals require. With its 4800x2400 dpi resolution, the new Canon i9900 photo printer is a good example. It generates prints in sizes from 4x6 all the way up to 13x19. While not quite large enough to match the traditional 16x20 photographic print size, 13x19 is sufficient for creating a variety of oversized output, including posters and large portraits.

Responding to your requests for more printer reviews after our Hi-Touch series, we vowed to hit the big three this year: Hewlett-Packard, Epson and now Canon. HP stunned us with gorgeous dye-based inkjet prints and Epson impressed us with extraordinary pigment-based prints on a variety of media. How could Canon compete, we wondered?

Let’s leave the suspense to Alfred Hitchcock: Canon’s i9900 Photo Printer is the best desktop ink jet printer in its price range that I’ve ever used. The i9900 makes big, beautiful prints, is quiet, offers fast cross-platform interconnectivity, and did I mention it makes beautiful prints?

Review: "Canon's consumer reputation was built the old fashioned way; not through billion-dollar marketing campaigns or bargain basement deals, but rather by the consistent delivery of quality products. People buy Canon because of the brand's reputation.

One of the i9900's greatest advantages over other printers in its class is speed. At its highest resolution it can spit out a 13-by-19-inch print in under six minutes. By comparison, when I evaluated HP's Photosmart 8750 last year it took close to 20 minutes to print the same image at maximum resolution."

Eight ink colors give the Canon i9900 a wide color gamut and true photo quality output, while 6,144 nozzles let it print photos at breathtaking speeds. It's also fast enough for business applications to serve as an all-purpose printer with excellent text quality and high-quality graphics.

Lately, I've been in a quandary regarding digital photography. I'm an amateur photographer from way back, still enjoying a decade-long love affair with my old trusty Canon SLR. I’m not a point-and-shoot kind of guy. I enjoy the freedom of traditional photography, the ability to swap out lenses, adjust f-stops, choose aperture settings, and perform other such pre-pic manipulations. I love filters, and I love how my camera takes a picture instantly, as opposed to most digital cameras’ tendency to make you wait a half-second for the aperture to open.
