C anon has added two offerings to its PIXMA line of photo inkjet printers: the affordable PIXMA iP1600, which sells for $49.99, and the PIXMA iP4200, which costs $129.99.
The iP1600 replaces the outgoing iP1500 model and features a print resolution of 4800x1200 dpi and ink droplets as small as two picoliters. The four-color printer produces a lab quality 4x6-inch borderless photo in about 70 seconds.
