Our Verdict

Canon PIXMA G7020

Canon PIXMA TR8620

The Canon PIXMA G7020 and the Canon PIXMA TR8620 are all-in-one color inkjet printers, but the TR8620 is better for families and casual photo printing. The TR8620 produces higher-quality photos with good detail and vibrant colors. It prints faster overall and can also print directly off of SD cards. On the other hand, the G7020's supertank ink system gives it a far superior page yield and cost-per-print.
