Images are scanned from 7.5 inch high prints using best quality driver settings for appropriate best quality own brand glossy photo paper. Original image photographed using a 3 megapixel HP Photosmart C715 camera.
 

Canon S900 As you would expect, the result is very similar to the older S800 (see bottom of page), though marginally lighter, bringing out shadow detail.

Epson Stylus 895 Photo Crisp whites, good tonal gradation between yellow and white, cooler greens overall compared to both the Canons.

Canon S800 Lower contrast than Epson 895. Shows Canon’s characteristic low black density in the shadows. Supreme gloss and sharpness of actual print is difficult to convey in this representation.
