Much better than expected [Posted on 2008-02-17]
This is a wonderful printer. I bought it to print edible images (with special ink of course) and it really exceded my expectations. The images come out very sharp and very clear. They really have a photograph quality. I'd recommend it to every one looking for a Photo printer. The down side might be the price of the ink cartridges. But as I said before I use it with specialty cartridges so I can't really comment about it.
Great Printer [Posted on 2008-02-18]
Very good color printing. I am surprised to get such good quality for such a small price. It prints much better than my other more expensive one. I would highly recommend this product.
Great buy! Beware about generic ink [Posted on 2008-02-29]
I bought this printer about half a year ago because I wanted to get a better photo printer than the hp I had. Photo prints are wonderful and I could not detect any grainyness to them. The printer has a duplexing option (that I love), auto-alignment, and a quiet mode that you can set for the times that you want. You can also set it so that the computer turns the printer on and off when it needs to rather than just leaving it on all the time. Having two paper trays is another useful feature.
I bought some of the generic cartridges from ebay (note: voids warranty) and they seemed to print ok for emails and such but not so good for photos. I switched back to the OE cartridges after they were used up and can't get rid of the white steaks in the blue. So it seems that a new printer head is needed (will buy a new printer because it comes w/ ink & warranty).
The printer makes great photos just don't buy generic cartridges (didn't work for me at least).
Fantastic Photos [Posted on 2008-04-22]
When I was shopping for a new printer last year. I looked at many brands for consumer evaluations. Canon got the highest rank over all and the price was within my budget. The photos are clear, clean and beautiful. The paper doesn't take long to dry as with many printers and you only have to replace the cartridges individualy, nice when you only run out of one color. I also like the fact that when not in use you can close all trays, no dust build-up and things don't get dropped inside. The availability to print quickly or quality and two paper trays that can be changed in an instant, just push a button.
You'll go broke buying ink for this machine [Posted on 2008-05-08]
Sure, it's cheap, but you'll quickly make up for that in buying ink. This printer takes 5 separate ink cartirdges, 4 of which must be bought in a pack, so you end up with extras you never use. It will refuse to print if it thinks any of those 5 cartridges have unacceptable ink levels. This has happened to me even on a fairly new cartridge. Even worse, my particular machine often gets confused and tells me I have more than one of the same color installed (I don't). Again, because of this, it refuses to print. I wish I'd never bought this printer.
