Score: 68/100Rankings
The Canon PIXMA TR8620a is a feature-rich all-in-one inkjet offering fast, high-resolution printing, versatile paper handling, and multiple connectivity options, making it well-suited for home and small-office environments. Its limitations include a modest duty cycle and a relatively heavy chassis, which may deter high-volume or highly mobile users. Ideal for users who value photo quality and multifunction capabilities over sheer throughput.
The HP DeskJet 2855e is a compact wireless all-in-one inkjet designed for light home use, offering decent print quality and easy setup via the HP Smart app. Its manual duplex, low duty cycle, and lack of borderless printing limit higher-volume or photo-centric tasks. Ideal for students or occasional home printing.
