Upside: The PIXMA iP6000D takes direct printing a step further than its predecessor; in addition to providing card slots for the major media card formats and direct-from-camera printing, it can output photos from cell phones equipped with infrared capabilities. At 2.5 inches, its LCD is slightly larger than the i905D's 2-inch screen, and the iP6000D lets you edit and search for images on the LCD in addition to viewing them before printing. The iP6000D also comes equipped with all the features found on the PIXMA line -- from autoduplexing to high-capacity paper loading -- and it costs less than its predecessor.
Downside: Aside from its design and slightly enhanced direct-print capabilities, there's not much new here. The iP6000D incorporates older technologies, so users wanting to get the latest technology will have to look at the PIXMA iP5000. This isn't a deal breaker; we awarded the i905D with good performance and print-quality marks.
Outlook: Considering the printer's versatility, AU$499 is a more than a fair price to pay for the iP6000D. Like its predecessor, it should do quite well on the market. Stay tuned for the full review.
