Side by side with Canon
I read review after review debating which printer I should buy for mostly photo reproduction. While not wanting to go to the large size photo dedicated pro version....I wanted to stay under $200. It came down to the Canon Mp640 and the Epson Artisan 710. Reviewers were pretty much split between the two as positive and negative...What to do? Both have very similar features...wirless scan etc..neither of which had much to do with my decision. I finally just decided to take my SD card and have each printer print two or three of the same pic. I started with the Canon and the print menu was easy and the print speed was great. The pics were very good but at side angle had a bit of a hazy quality. Uploaded the same images to the Epson....there was no comparison photo lab quality through and through. There were areas of one image that were dark and undifined in the Canon print but were detailed and exposed well in the Epson.
When you also look at Epson having a 2 year warranty vs. 1 for Canon it says something. The real kicker is from my research I had every intention of buying the Canon....but the proof was in the photos.More detail ...
