Canon Pixma G2010 Printer Review

Going entirely paperless is very important, but it is still not as easy. A completely digital and paperless environment is still probably decades away and the requirement for printers is still in high demand. While most offices and homes today are investing in printers as the most needed appliance for work, the topmost concern for both segments is the running cost. Canon Pixma G2010 Printer as equipment are very cheap, but the cost involved in maintaining the same is what hits the consumer. Think of it like owning a car that has a low mileage. So if you own a printer, you have to keep it running frequently to avoid the print heads drying up, which is a costliest replaceable part. Apart from the head drying up, you have to refill the ink cartridges, which does not come in cheap either. Almost all companies who manufacture Canon Pixma G2010 printers offer a starter ink cartridge that consists of a few millilitres of ink that can print an average of 500 – 1,000 pages. These cartridges need to be replaced with original ones as refilling an ink cartridge will put your printer out of warranty. Since the warranty is the main issue here, users end up being forced to buy original cartridges that are pretty expensive. While ink cartridges do come in two variants — standard and XL, they are also prone to running out, making sure you end up lightening your pockets at least once every month. Black XL cartridges can hold up to 20ml in quantity of ink within, yield around 300 pages and cost as high as Rs 1500 to Rs 18,00, putting the cost of each black print at an average of Rs 6 per copy. Colour will be almost three times the amount. Canon Pixma G2010 Inkjet printers today also have another unique way to gauge the amount of ink balance in the cartridge tanks. No, there is absolutely no sensor inside the tanks to know the exact level of the ink remaining or used. The printer calculates the life of the cartridge based on the number of print copies passing through the printer’s mechanism. For example, if your cartridge is pronounced to yield 1,000 pages on a full tank, the printer will report the cartridge empty after exactly 1,000 pages — including paper jams being counted. So whether you print a single dot on all 1,000 pages or print a totally black page, the ink tank is estimated to give you 1,000 pages till it shows empty. In the first case, if you simply printed one dot on 1,000 pages, your cartridge will still have more than 90 per cent of ink balance, but the, printer will force you to replace the cartridge thinking that the cartridge is now blank. In the second case where you print entire black pages, your cartridge will run out of ink in around 200 pages or less, and the printer will still not allow you to replace the ink tank since it still thinks there is a lot of ink remaining. What is needed in printers today is intelligence on the amount of ink being dispersed on a page in ratio to the amount of ink inside the tank. The above examples are facts and hence printer companies are usually bad named as ‘making money via cartridge sales.’ The fact is partially true as it would be cheaper to buy original cartridges rather than void your warranty. Refilled cartridges will not give you quality prints as the ink being used varies in quality and colours as compared to original ones. Also, you end up losing warranty. However, at the end, you could come up with a possible claim too that buying a new printer is cheaper than opting for new cartridges. Another major concern is where consumers think twice to buy a printer at home or small office if the printing volume is low. There are many Canon Pixma G2010 printers that have a high yielding cartridge, but still, need a replacement after they are exhausted. However, the most expensive part of a cartridge is the print head, after the ink itself. Hence the concept of ink tank printers came into existence. While leading printer manufacturers are slowly bringing in ink tank printers for consumers with high printing volume needs, are they good enough as an investment? The answer is yes, provided you do have high print volumes. The Canon Pixma G2010 printer has a top-loading paper foldable tray that can hold up to 100 sheets at a time. The front output tray is fold able but does not close the compartment completely which allows for dust settling inside. The printer does not feature duplex printing, which leaves the user to manually flip the paper for dual-side printing. Adding a duplex printing mechanism is a huge requirement to save on paper today and Canon could have enrolled this printer with the same design too.
