Miscellaneous
Consumables Included:
1 x ink tank ( pigmented black ) - 26 ml - Canon PGI-5BK
Advantages: sleek looks, not the ususal vanilla unit in the corner, quiet Disadvantages: Slight premium when initially buying the printer, some ink can be expensive
...Superb quality, sleek looks, reasonable footprint, non-vanilla colour scheme - all reasons for choosing this printer aside from its main selling point..superb picture quality.
Yes..I thought long and hard before choosing this printer. I previously used Epson and HP, both reasonable but both, especially the Epson suffering from reliabilty issues.
As with all printer purchases, one has to look at the whole life of the product - the printer is the initial and often cheapest part of the deal. We all know that Printer Company's make their money of ink sales, and I was fearful of the Canon ink being at a premium.This has proved not to be the case, with the ink no dearer that other manufacturers. The cartridge set up on this printer lends itself to to ink economy with its separate units, and that is all before you even consider ink re...

Advantages: Great quality prints Disadvantages: A little slow but the best comes to those who wait!
...I am really into the art of 'Scrapbooking' and so wanted a good photo printer to save me having to send and wait for my photo orders. I found my old printer would leave the usual 'photo printer' stripes. After browsing all the latest models I came across the CanonPixmaIP4500. I bought this printer from Ebuyer for £63.00 which was much cheaper than some of the well-known electrical / computer stores.
The printers design is simple - the body is mainly black with silver surroundings. It has the usual on/off button, cancel/feed button, and a button to switch between input trays. It doesn't have any memory card slots but does have a PictBridge USB port.
This model has two paper input options - one which unfolds outwards at the back of the machine and the second via a cassette which pulls out from the front. 150 sheets can be placed...

Advantages: Small, Easy to move around! Disadvantages: Slow printer if you print a lot!
...The CanonPixma was the first printer I ever bought. I used it to print my school projects and mainly my report papers. It works great but not as fast as laser printers. Sometimes after you're done printing you have to wait a couple of seconds for the ink to dry out.
The printer uses a standard canon ink cartridge, it's very small so you have to constantly change it every so often if you are always using it.
I highly recommend a Laser printer if you need to print many documents and a laser printer is well suited in a fast-paced, working environment.
But if you're just a student like I am you can use the PixmaIP1500,
It does the job well.
ALSO the CanonPixma is also good for printing coloured photos, and envelopes, ETC.
The CanonPixma also comes with a printing software and photo editor. However you may have to purchase ADOBE...

The only reason I bought this printer was that I had broken my previous one and therefore needed a replacement. By broken I mean I had dropped the power transformer onto the laminate floor as I had rather stupidly been carrying it by the cables, and the... more
After spending some time researching the latest photo-quality multi-functions, I decided on this model as it offered the best compromise on scan results and print speeds. Although I would have preferred a wireless-enabled machine, I was able to get... more
When it comes to buying technology, I know absolutely nothing, so I tend to take advice. The usual advice is: buy the best you can afford. In this case the cost was only an issue in the value-for-money sense, not in the there-is-a-top-limit sense. ... more

Came well packed, no clutter and was easy to unpack. I got the whole printer connected up and ready to install in about 10 minutes. All the parts were very easy to install, and the manual was good as it was just easy to more
