The only reason I got this printer was the fact that it was on offer at Tescos and my other printer had broken. I have a Canon camera and know that Canon is a good well know brand. It also looks nice and modern and has a nice shiny black finish.

For standard photos and written documents, it does the job nicely, although some of the colours on the photos did not come out the same as on screen, but that might not be down to the printer itself, as my PC may not be set up correctly.

Much cheaper to get them done at processing lab or online. The ink is not cheap for this printer either, compared with other similar printers. Although I have found that even when it says it is empty, there is still actually quite a bit of ink left in them, maybe not good for doing photos and quality documents, but fine for everyday paperwork.
It is also very noisy when you switch it on and it seems to take ages for it to get going. I have thought many times that it has been broken because of all the strange start up noises it makes.
Mine cost £29.99 from Tescos but it was on offer as should have been £39.99.
Advantages: great looking printouts, very attractive design, quick prints, low prices Disadvantages: does not include a paper output tray
...most PC workstations.
The Canon iP2500 does not include a paper output tray, some users may find this a nuisance as they will need to catch their prints as the printjob finishes to prevent them falling onto the floor/desk. Connects to the PC via USB interface, is compatible with Windows/Mac.
This printer comes with a Creative CD and a pack of matte paper (quite a few sheets in the pack).
For the price I have seen this for, it's definitely worth ...

Advantages: Not expensive to buy Disadvantages: Slow to get going, smudges, costly to run
I have had Canon printers before and have been pleased with them but this new printer is a disappointment. I make my own cards using photos, and also print off letters with photos on them. It is not so good even on ordinary paper. It leaves smudges on the trailing or leading edges and doesn't like glossy photo paper at all. It also gets through ink like no other printer I have ever had and has, in about 4 months, cost me more than twice as much in ... ...numerous documents and photos so the cost in paper has also added to the ink costs. It also takes a very long time to get going when you switch it on so there is no point in thinking that you can print something quickly. I telephoned the company to tell them and ask advice but the only explanation given was that I must be doing something wrong. I might just have a duff one, especially as the other review I have read says it is wonderful but I can't ...

...brought and purchased the new Canon Pixma IP2500. I have found it superb so far.
It delivers fast prints as well as sharp clear text on any print outs. The printer comes with a creative CD and a pack of matte photo paper.
Prints a photo lab quality 10x15cm borderless photo, takes only approximately 55 seconds. Printer produces a high 4800x1200dpi print resolution using the Fine Cartridge and 2pl ink droplets. It has a ChromaLife100 system for long ... ...to the prints.
The PIXMA iP2500 is Windows and Mac compatible with an USB connection. You can buy one of these printers for about £45-49 pounds which in my opinion is well worth the spend, my view is that there are far more expensive printers than this Canon PIXMA iP2500. ...
