Manual of product Pixma iP2600
Editorial note
The Canon Pixma iP2600 stands out for its exceptional print quality, with a maximum resolution of 4800 x 1200 DPI, ideal for producing high-quality documents and photos. Additionally, its energy efficiency is remarkable, with a consumption of only 7 W in print mode and 1 W in standby, allowing for significant energy savings. The print speed is also appreciable, reaching up to 22 pages per minute in black and 17 pages per minute in color, which facilitates daily printing tasks. However, this model has some drawbacks. Limited compatibility with Windows operating systems may restrict its accessibility for Mac users. Furthermore, while the print speed is reasonable, it may be lower than that of some competing printers, which may not suit those with higher printing needs. The lack of advanced features such as network connectivity or Wi-Fi may also pose a problem for users wishing to print from multiple devices. Finally, the 100-sheet paper capacity may prove insufficient for heavy professional use, leading to frequent interruptions. In terms of value for money, the Canon Pixma iP2600 offers good printing performance and energy savings, although its weight of 3700 g limits its portability. In summary, it is perfectly suited for light home and professional use but may not meet the demands of heavy users.Score details
