Can someone please help me choose between these 2 printers ?
Both use the same cartridges, are 9600*2400 dpi and have 1picoL heads.
However the IX6550 seems to get more positive feedbacks concerning the photo printing quality.
I'm wondering if there is really a difference in printing quality since the characteristics are the same ?

First, I was interested by the MG5330 because of the wifi and the scanner. But if the quality of the IX6550 is really better, then I'm ready to change my mind.
Thanks for any advice.

first of all, ix6550 is A3 and mg5350 is only A4. I own canon ix 6550 for 2 years with CISS installed and print with cheap chinease inks. No problems at all and very good quality prints. I made a printer-ink-paper profile with Spyder 3 Print and the prints are matching my monitor.


pauL :rolleyes:
5D II, 14mm Samyang F2.8, Canon 50mm F2.5, Sigma 35 F1.4, Sigma 85 F1.4, Canon 70-200 f2.8 L, Canon 100mm F2.8 macro, Canon 430 EX, Canon 580 EXii, Godox xEnergizer 600Ws and counting...

Finally I took the MG5350 as the quality seemed to be the same and I was more interested by the scanner and wifi than A3 size.
