Let's face it: The technology is aging, and it's an expensive piece of equipment to have hanging around, if only for the ever-rising cost of ink. Printers aren't going to command the show floor, nor are they going to grab headlines.</p><p>But part of any serious photo setup is a way to get good prints. Whether you're selling them, handing them out to friends and family, or just hanging them on your wall, getting a quality photo print is a necessity for pros and enthusiasts. For many, that means a trip out to a store, buying prints online, or finally taking the plunge on a high-end home printer.</p><p>However, Canon recently released a prosumer model that hobbyists should pay very close attention to. Bridging the gap between consumer and professional inkjet printing is the Canon PIXMA iP8720. While we haven't had the chance to try it out under lab conditions, we had some time to mess around with this new challenger at CES. Boasting comparable performance to high-performance printers but making its debut at a consumer price point of $299.99, the iP8720 is gunning for photo junkies and average families alike.</p><p><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/personal/2014/01/26/reviewed-canon-pixma-ip8720/4822625/">Keep reading...</a></p>
