But there are some features and functions, Canon Pixma iX6850 printer lacks. It lets some users down because of the fact that this printer doesn’t have duplex printing. The requirement to manually flip your paper isn’t what anyone wants to do, especially if users are looking to print in a bigger amount. The printer doesn’t even have any kind of LED screen that could be used to change its settings. Though it's stylish in look, but less interactive. Nowadays, users find it better to control with a screen. You can print via WiFi and ethernet, but you can’t print via a USB or memory card, which you might be looking for.

The price is probably the main thing that users note before buying any printer, and indeed its price attracts users to this model. It’s also a pretty good option in terms of both print quality and Wi-Fi connectivity. However, it might let you down a little by its lack of capability to duplex print, and an LED screen which would make navigation much easier.
