Unfortunately, this software won’t work with the Canon PPL software – no doubt a deliberate decision, but unfortunate, since the software that does work is so simplified I found it somewhat irksome to try and use.

Seeking the best printer for your business? Hit your productivity targets with inkjet and laser printers that are a perfect fit for any workspace – including home offices. Without a proper printer driver for the Mac, this is bound to be a little experimental, but results showed it could work.The G650 is the same printer but with a 600 x 1200 dpi flatbed scanner on top, giving scanning and copying functions. It is also a bit higher at 167mm, compared the G550’s 136mm. Both measure 445mm x 340mm Printer features Of course I guess people printing directly from a phone are not concerned with this. High quality photography and printing is my job, so I am… just bear that in mind if you think I’m being a little critical in some areas ;-) Choosing papers Requires an Internet connection and the Creative Park app, available for free on the App Store and at Google Play. Compatible with iOS 12.0 or later/Android OS 5.0 or later operating systems. You must have a Canon ID and a Canon inkjet printer to use this app. It really is quite a simple process and many paper suppliers (here in the UK) will even make you profiles if you buy some paper.

I also use both for testing the performance of printer profiles. If you make use of them, then do be sure to read the explanatory notes that go with them. Colour management You do need to tell the printer when tanks are full – it has no way of measuring the amount of ink in a tank. If you’re looking at any more than occasional office type printing, then move along. Canon have loads of other printers that fill that requirement. Test printsTo take advantage of AirPrint, your compatible printer must be connected to the same wireless network as your iOS device or Mac computer. Now, don’t get me wrong, I was able to get some pleasant looking B&W prints from the G550, but as someone who chooses (more expensive) pigment inks for printing B&W, there were issues. The upshot of my testing is that the ink set of the G550 is capable of creating moderately good looking B&W prints, but once again you need to see whether your paper is OK for your needs. The versatile PIXMA G650 and PIXMA G550 enable small business owners to provide a wide range of print services to clients at affordable prices. They're perfect for DIY photo booth operators and ID providers or marketing professionals who need to generate large volumes of posters, leaflets and other advertising material. If you're looking for a printer that offers capacity, convenience and low-cost printing, without compromising image quality, you won't want to miss these latest additions to the Canon MegaTank range.
