Canon PIXMA MG8150

Canon's top-of-the-range all-in-one has all the bells and whistles, such as transparency scanning, but commands a premium for them.

High quality, six-colour prints, Easy-to-use touch controls, Twin paper trays

Duplex print particularly slow, Big price gap from next model down, Running costs as high as cheaper models

Canon PIXMA MG8150 review

The MG8150 produces good prints and great scans, but it's very expensive to buy and run.

Canon PIXMA MG8150 review

Canon's PIXMA MG8150 has a similar layout to other PIXMA models like the PIXMA iP4850, but it is wider and taller at 470x392x199mm. A 3.5in LCD screen in the centre of the printer's top panel has an easily understandable graphical interface, but the...

The Canon PIXMA MG8150 is full of features, and has a reasonably high price tag to match. It’s an impressive all-round multifunction device — whether you’re printing documents, photos or scanning it can produce good quality results.

Canon Pixma MG8120

The shiny, black Canon Pixma MG8120 color inkjet multifunction printer (which prints, copies, and scans), is nothing if not cool-looking--the control panel integrated into the top lid is a must see. But it also produces smooth text output at a good...

Cool-looking control panel built seamlessly into top ; Exceptional text output ; Wireless connectivity

Expensive purchase price ; No automatic document feeder

A generous feature set and great performance make this MFP a good fit for a home or small office.

Expert review by : Alex Kidman (cnet.com.au)

Canon Pixma MG8150

The Pixma MG8150 is the costly bigger brother of the excellent MG6150, but unless you've got a burning need for slide scanning, it's difficult to justify the additional cost.

Excellent black print quality ; Excellent photo print quality ; Intuitive and slick touch panel ; CD/DVD printing ; Slide scanning included

Slower than the cheaper MG6150 ; Slower than an average inkjet

You might be able to pick which one we'd recommend. The MG8150 certainly isn't a bad printer, but unless integrated slide/negative scanning is of vital importance to you, get the cheaper MG6150 instead.
