    5 Stars Best Value Printer available - Feb 2005 12/02/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Flexible, Cost Effective, Easy to Use, Great Value

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Short on Bells and Whistles

    This printer is an ideal printer for someone who wants a reliable & easy to use printer for general office duties but would also like the flexibility to handle the occasional photo print or CD/DVD printing. I’ll justify all of this below but if you are in the market for a sub £90 printer that is mainly used for letter and other general office duties then get this one. At this price you might be able to have a printer each. The main features of this printer are: Great paper handling, by providing two paper trays the printer offers you the flexibility to keep two types of media pre-loaded into ... more

    5 Stars The Best Printer Yet! 12/07/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Long lasting ink, CD printing, two trays, easy to use software package.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None.

    I purchased this printer during the boxing day sales, and it's exceeded all of my expectations. I know that printers are often sold at a loss as the manufacturers think they'll make it back in ink purchases, but this seemed too good to be true! In all honesty, I didn't know an awful lot about what I was buying, it just looked pretty good and was on special offer. It was only when I got this printer home that I realised what a bargain I'd grabbed myself! The printer itself looks very stylish, it has two paper feeders, one being a tray which is very handy for just stacking your plain A4 in. The ... more

    5 Stars Another WINNER from Canon, the Dog's Wossnames 19/10/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Superb Print Quality, Exceptional borderless Photos, Fast, Cheap Compatible Ink Cartridges, Well Made, Prints on printable CDs/DVDs too

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No parallel connection. Does not make coffee

    I bought this printer on spec after reading several glowing reports in the computer press and seeing how good a mates printer was. Having had 4 Epsons bomb out in as many years (just out of warranty of course), I will never touch and Epson again. And their print heads are too susceptable to air bubbles and early failure. Canon have been at the leading edge of product design and innovation for years. And NO I don't work for them. I love their cameras, lenses and now their printers (but not the cheap ones). Sorry to sound prescriptive, but the Canon cheap range printers use tiny cartridges that ... more

    5 Stars Canon IP3000 - Super fast printing! 26/01/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Ability to print straight onto the surface of a CD

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Front door flap for outgoing paper tends to bang down giving you the impression that it may break

    I had no idea printers these days had the ability to print as fast as this one does, until there was an IP3000 bought for Christmas. It seriously feels like as soon as you put the paper in, the printer has done its job and spat it out again! Fantastic! I have noticed there is a higher model of this called the IP4000 which can print slightly faster. But if you ask me, an extra £30 purely to save an extra couple of seconds on print isn't worth it. Heres why this printer is an amazing contraption: ^^^^ Features ^^^^ I suppose the most noticable function the IP3000 can perform is printing direct ... more

    4 Stars An excellent Printer 20/06/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fast for Most jobs. Prints onto CD

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not many

    This is a high quality product form Cannon. It is seriously good. It is the fastest inkjet I have seen for text and composite (text & graphics) documents. However it still cant hold a candle to a decent laser printer if your after fast printing, other than the price. This isnt really a printer designed for speed though. And whilst it does do fine printing fast documents, its photo printing where this printer really shows its worth. It can do seriously excellent full colour A4 borderless photo prints that are impossible to differentiate from a photo lab equivilant. The printing speed does slow ... more
