Our Verdict
Canon PIXMA TS9520
Canon MAXIFY GX6020
The Canon MAXIFY GX6020 and the Canon PIXMA TS9520 are all-in-one color inkjet printers. The MAXIFY uses a supertank ink system for superior page yields and cost-per-print and is also better for small or home offices thanks to its faster printing speed. On the other hand, the PIXMA prints much better-looking photos, with deep blacks, vibrant colors, and no banding.
