My last printer gave up the ghost just before Xmas so I had to find another at a realistic price. I saw the PIXMA IP4300 on the net but no review, trusting Canon's reputation and a very favourable price I bought it, and no regrets so far.
Set up was easy, you just follow a quick start sheet and let the machine set itself up, couldn't be easier. The manual however is in disc form, never my favourite method, but it covers everything you need to know.
The printer comes with 5 cartridges, Magenta,cyan, yellow, black and also a large black, you can use compatible cartridges at less than £3, but remember to salvage the chip each time.
The printer has a sheet feed, manual feed and a cassette feed which enables you to print on virtually any type of material up to A4 fom 64gm to 273gm. The IP4300 also allows you to set the printer for automatic duplexing (double sided).
The printer also comes with a little guide which allows you to insert a CD/DVD and print onto them.
Print quality is exceptional with maximum resolution of 9600dpi x 2400dpi. Print speeds arefrom 11ppm to 30ppm depending on colour or B&W and fast or slow copying selected.
You can print direct from camera as it is Pictbridge enabled, or from the PC using USB2.0 connection (USB cable not supplied).
I bought mine from a large computer store on their website for £57, collected from their store, if I had bought from store it was £79.

Good start to a review, with essential information, however it could do with more personal opinion with it. Also, it may be useful to have a titled layout for ease of read and to increase chances of a higher rating. :o) let me know if you re-write and i will be happy to re-read/rate. gaunty

Helpful in the price tip and specs, but unhelpful in pretty much every other way. Try and make things longer and more thought out, it will get you further on this site in the end.
