In particular, the colors in our landscape photo looked very natural. Details looked very sharp and color saturation was very pleasing. Glossy photo prints, however, were top-notch. Pixels were more visible in the TR150's graphics prints. The graphics also lacked the sharper details, stronger contrast and richer color saturation of better-looking prints, such as from the HP OfficeJet 250. Color graphics printed on plain paper looked a little washed-out, and banding was visible. Edges of letterforms looked a little rough, and not razor sharp. Text printed a little on the light side, rather than in a rich black. The Canon iOS app did not offer a high-resolution setting. Printing from an iPhone 7, the TR150 printed at comparable speed to printing from a PC, making a 4-by-6-inch glossy at default settings in 1 minute and 5 seconds.
The HP OfficeJet 250, however, was twice as fast at default and high-resolution settings, making 4-by-6-inch glossy prints in 37.6 and 49.5 seconds, respectively. Printing at high resolution, the TR150 made the same glossy print in 1 minute and 45 seconds, which was significantly faster than the category average of 2 minutes and 6 seconds. From a Windows PC, the TR150 made a 4-by-6-inch glossy photo print at default settings in 1 minute and 4.8 seconds, versus the average of 1 minute and 11 seconds. Likewise, the paper trays only hold 100 regular pages, so you'll be replacing this every few days if you print a lot and often.Photo printing speed also was faster than the category average. Speaking of the cartridges, you can get a good 200-300 pages out of them, though you'll likely be replacing the black cartridge often if you print frequently. When the printer is off, the carriage gets hidden into the sides of the printer, so you can't access them. The cartridges are also very easy to access, but you need to make sure the printer is turned on so that the cartridge carriage moves to the center of the printer. You can easily access paper jams and sheet rollers by removing the front paper tray, removing the back input tray, then removing the rear cover, or you can even remove the transport unit if the paper is stuck farther back. There are also some tasks to help you when cleaning certain parts of the printer, like the rollers and the bottom plate. There are some built-in tasks to prevent and resolve printhead clogging issues and banding due to misalignment. Like all inkjet printers, the Canon PIXMA TR8620a needs maintenance to keep it running smoothly.
