As a photographer who is borderline neurotic about print quality, “everyday” print jobs have always been a thorn in my side. My office is home to a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 17" printer and an Epson Stylus Pro 9800 44" printer. While both units produce brilliant, high-quality photographs, neither was designed for practical home office applications or high-volume, small-scale print workflows. Any other poor souls who have found themselves hand-feeding letter-size copy paper through a printer designed for 44-inch wide rolls of photo paper just to make a return shipping label will understand my struggle. When I was asked to try Canon’s new PIXMA G620 Wireless MegaTank Photo All-in-One Printer, I was hopeful that it might cover the bases my larger printers have left empty.
The first thing I noticed out of the box is the relatively small footprint and compact build of this printer. When folded up, it occupies only 17.2 x 12.5" of space, so you don’t have to worry about it competing with everything else on your desk. When printing, it extends to an equally manageable 17.2 x 21.8". The second thing I noticed was its use of a 6-Color Ink System. Sharing its design with previous refillable MegaTank printers, the G620 uses bottles with keyed nozzles to ensure that only the correct color can be added into its designated tank. I became aware of this clever feature while attempting to make the exact mistake described above, so—nice foresight, Canon. Another useful feature of the MegaTank design is the inclusion of transparent windows for each color so you can quickly eyeball levels without even needing to turn the printer on.
