Dogs Sample
x In our test photo of two dogs, you can see how the B8550 did a very decent job of reproducing the fine details of the dog's coat and snappy outfit.
The original photo can be downloaded here.

Space Sample
x This photo of Io over the surface of Jupiter has a wide dyanmic range and a lot of subtle detail, but the B8850 handled it well. The original photo can be downloaded here.

Still life Sample
x Our camera still life has a lot of detail and color in it, including the radial pattern that many printers had problems with. But the B8850 didn't have many issues here; the photo was reproduced cleanly and with most of the detail intact The original photo was taken with a Nikon D3x at ISO 100 and can be downloaded here.

Plain Paper Sample
x The B8850 did a decent job of printing onto plain paper, but it had the same issues that all inkjet printers have: the ink was slightly smudged, and some areas of flat color have a slightly mottled look from the texture of the paper.
