Canon PIXMA MG6150 Cartridge Review
 Canon has introduced six cutting edge all-in-ones, plus a fresh naming convention, and it's really the Pixma MG6150 that is definitely the one to check out. Situated just beneath the previous MP990, it takes the best pieces of that exceptional unit and drags the whole bunch in to 2010.
The finish is now a polished black that is much more suited for a living room or even a fashionable flat, and when you've flipped the spring-loaded screen upright, you'll learn a complete lack of buttons. Much like some high-end Epsons, the 3in non-touch LCD contains the key information as well as menus, but a large section of the lid in front of it doubles up as a touch panel.
You will see the back, home and option-select buttons glow straight into life, while within menus it adapts: if you are in the copy menu, for instance, the panel offers plus and minus icons to alter the amount of copies. In the mean time, a four-way directional button sits in the middle for navigation. Menu navigation isn't really any more instinctive than using the physical buttons it supplanted, however the sheer responsiveness and all-round design makes it a joy to operate.
On the inside, there exists further good news. The MG6150 uses the print engine used in the MP990, so it is faster than the long-A-Listed MP640 and it has an additional grey ink to help even tonal shifts as well as for improved monochrome quality. Rates of speed are almost the same to the MP990, with 11.8ppm and 6.1ppm rates in mono and colour respectively, along with a time of 44 seconds on a top-quality 6 x 4in photograph. The quality it creates is first rate. Its razor-sharp, precise photos store oodles of colour, and text is as vibrant and solid as it is clean.
Where Canons frequently display weakness is in their scanners, and the MG6150 is no different. We arranged its scans side-by-side with the ones from the MP990 and could detect no improvement - both were sharp and detailed, although they had vaguely muted colours. For occasional jobs it is nonetheless securely in the upper echelons.
The other enhancements are the exact same as through the Pixma collection, therefore the MG6150 has the Full HD Movie Print feature found on the single-function iP4850, as well as exclusive entry to content in Canon's Creative Park Premium (as long as you use a full set of authentic Canon Pixma MG6150 printer cartridges. They are both attractive although niche touches which increase the total appeal rather than serving as selling points themselves.
The rest of the package is as thorough as we have come to anticipate. That includes an auto-opening output tray, in addition to a couple of 150-sheet input trays. It prints two-sided as well as directly upon CDs and DVDs with the provided adapter, plus the PictBridge interface on the front enables you to show slideshows and also change photographs directly on the device. Everything connects by means of USB, Ethernet or 802.11n Wi-Fi, the latter of which is compatible with printing from numerous products for example Android handsets, iPhones as well as iPads, as well as the Sony PlayStation 3.
Canon's all-in-ones have dominated recently, but they've been in need of upgrading. Whilst we would have wanted to see the lengthy wait lead to a proper touch interface, the Canon's semi-touch answer is a marked improvement, and the all-round design modifications give the MG6150 true consumer appeal meaning there isn't anything available competent at matching its mixture of interface, high quality as well as speed. It is the new high-end photo all-in-one to beat.
