Our experts here at IJT Direct think the Canon 6850 is a splendid addition to your home or small office. This great multifunction printer has been made very user friendly and is packed with features. Using Canons favourable 5 ink system gives you great value at minimal cost as you only need to replace the cartridge that is empty.

Our thoughts on Design

The MG6850 comes in stylish black and with usability in mind it has a large 7.5cm touch screen LCD. Its paper tray is at the front of the printer and can take up to 100 sheets at a time; the tray can be pushed in when not in use to save extra space. The physical sizes of this printer are 455x369x148mm with a weight of 6.4kg. This printer also has a memory card slot on the front of the printer allowing use of a range of cards meaning you can print your photos directly from the memory card rather than through a PC.

Main Printer Advantages

The remarkable Pixma MG 6850 can create eye catching images and also crisp documents with an image resolution of 4800x1200 dpi. This printer is cost effective using Canon’s 5 ink system and it also has automatic two sided printing. There are many options for connecting this printer including, USB, WIFI, Google cloud print and Apple air print; and WIFI Direct (you don’t even need a router).

Main Printer Disadvantages

The design of the Pixma MG6850 can be limiting as its paper tray can only hold 100 sheets at a time. It also does not have fax or an automatic document feeder; this wasn’t an option from new.
