Canon PIXMA MP550 inkjet multifunction printer

Canon's mid-range PIXMA office and photo printer handles both text and full-colour images well

Good quality photo prints, fast image scanning

Small colour screen not good for reviewing photos

Canon's PIXMA MP550 is a well-designed inkjet multifunction printer with only a few flaws. The button layout can be confusing and you might find the small screen a little frustrating, but it is a competent scanner and printer.

Canon Pixma MP550 – Review – 32

Canons stylish new MP550 doesn't have the same level of features as other printers we've tested. For starters, there's no wireless connectivity (for that you'll need the dearer MP560), and it also lacks the fax function of the HP. Not that many people...

Inexpensive ; Excellent print quality and detail

No inbuilt wireless ; Flimsy build

Even considering this, it was a super result, and bearing in mind the all-rounder abilities of the MP550 — it is a home office device, after all — the printer certainly made an impression (no pun intended).
