Optical resolution is a measure of maximum hardware sampling resolution, based on ISO 14473 standard. Wireless printing requires a working network with wireless 802.11b/g/n/ac or ad capability, operating at 2.4GHz. Wireless performance may vary based on terrain and distance between the printer and wireless network clients. The same doesn’t apply to the print quality, though, which is identical to the GX5050, by virtue of using exactly the same kind of ink. It’s great at printing letters, reasonable at business graphics, but not to be relied on for photos. If you want affordable running costs, though, it’s second to none. By moving the ADF opening from the top to the front, Canon’s latest all-in-one inkjet printer can be installed on a shelf, or under the counter. It’s an improvement on the already excellent design of Canon’s MAXIFY GX models, but it’s still not perfect. How are you going to access the 100-sheet rear tray when your printer is on a shelf? Take complete creative control of your images with PIXMA and imagePROGRAF PRO professional photo printers.

There’a lot to like about the Canon MAXIFY GX6050. It is well built, easy to use, comprehensively featured and has all-round performance that’s good enough for and home office or SMB. The main attraction of course are those big refillable ink tanks and the generous amount of ink Canon has put in the box. It means you don’t need to think about buying more for a long time and when you do, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the cost of bottled ink. Yes, it’s a high initial price for an inkjet printer, but you’ll be saving money in the long term.I have to admit that I was expecting the larger, more expensive Maxify GX7050 to outpace or, at the very least, equal the performance of the Maxify GX5050. It was a surprise to me, then, that its performance fell some way behind, sometimes by a considerable margin.

AirPrint functionality requires a compatible iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch device running iOS 7.0 or later, and an AirPrint-enabled printer connected to the same network as your iOS device. A printer connected to the USB port of your Mac, PC, AirPort Base station, or Time Capsule is not supported. Requires a smart device with the Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app installed and connected to the desired active wireless network to complete cableless setup. Canon Print Service is a print plug-in for Android smart devices, which enables printing from Android v4.4 - v5.0 devices to many Canon printers via a Wi-Fi network. The plug-in does not work as a standalone app. Available for free at Google Play. Colour documents and photos on photo paper also appeared clean and unblemished by horizontal lines. However, photos do look grainy, even at the highest print quality. The ink is applied flawlessly, so we can only assume it’s due to the limited print resolution. Canon’s photo printers are able optimise the resolution by spraying multiple droplets over slow moving paper to achieve a resolution of 4800x2400, whereas the Canon MAXIFY GX6050 has a resolution of 600x1200. Another issue you may face is your laptop or computer - some printers will only work with Windows devices. In these circumstances, the best printers for Mac will be a better choice.
