Canon Pixma MP560

As they say, appearances can be deceptive; the same applies to the Canon Pixma MP560, as there are many other types of high speed printers already available in the market. Priced at $150, the Canon Pixma MP560 is a multifunction printer that has great features but there are better products available in the market under the names like Epson Workforce 310 and Impact S305 that can provide the same quality of results at a much faster speed, and which are also cheaper.

Canon Pixma MP560 stands tall among the line of Canon Models of printers already available in the market. They all have state of the art design with creative shapes and a professional finishing. Pixma MP560 has a black and silver finishing and there is a lot of handiwork done on the designing of the device as compared to the functionality of the device. Canon Pixma MP560 comes with an LCD display with an array of buttons used to control the functionality of the printer.

There is the easy scroll wheel located in the center of the panel that allows an easy navigation of the controls. The LCD has a 2-inch display screen that is used to scan photographs and images that require printing. The speeds of some of the best printers in the market including the Canon Pixma MP560 can be compared with other types of printers like the Epson Workforce 310, Lexmark Impact S305, HP office Jet J6480 and Kodak ESP5. The speed of the printers was gauged based on it presentation speed, hot speed, color graphics and text speed based on number of pages printed per minute. While Epson Workforce 310 ranked the highest in the line of printers, Canon registered mediocre results.

It has been found that the quality of photos and documents is far below expectations. Although the text formats of documents are unaffected, it appears that the presentations that have been made on PowerPoint software lack clarity, as the images appear hazy and the tone of the documents is flawed. The glitches in the performance of Canon printers are very surprising unlike the canon clan of other products that are created to the point of perfection.

But Canon tries to balance the lack of speed by providing a one year warranty with the printer and excellent customer service with a standard website available on the internet that offers free software download combined with online technical assistance. But many loyalists still admire Canon Pixma MP560 for providing Auto duplexing and other multi functionality not seen in any other printer in the market.
