For those with the desire to print photos at home but without the need to invest in a large format, specialized photo printer, Canon’s wireless all-in-one TS printer line is worth a look, and it has just received five new additions. Four of those are updates to existing printers, and one is all-new.
These new offerings will be of interest to hobby photographers or professionals who print off-site but want something to print personal photos at home that can also be used for office tasks.
THE PRINTERS
One major improvement over the prior generation is a new ink formula which will reduce grain and add definition to photos while providing an enhanced gamut with improved representation of certain tones. The TS9120 and TS8120 will take advantage of the addition of a sixth ink tank, while the other three will make do with five as seen in previous TS printers. The new, sixth ink tank is photo blue which will replace gray and will add vibrancy to prints.
The affordable assortment of new printers will be available in multiple colors to complement your home-decor and personal aesthetic. For those who don’t have a need to print their photos as a professional but would like to make their artwork ‘real’ via high quality prints this could be a good option. It’s a shame when great photos never get to become a physical reality.
[REWIND:] WHY YOU’RE MISSING OUT IF YOU AREN’T PRINTING YOUR WORK
To accompany these printers is a new iOS app, Message In Print. These printers have an ability to embed an invisible message in the created print which is retrieved by its recipient using the Message In Print App.
