Advantages: Very low price, carries out all basic tasks well, photo-print quality is excellent Disadvantages: Basic feature set, low-quality scanner, ridiculously high-priced cartridges
...by the £20 cashback offer Canon was running at the time. This allowed me to purchase a multifunction machine for cheaper than replacing the cartridges on the ip1600! Unfortunately the cashback offer has now expired, but this machine is still available at an incredibly low price for the features.
Out of the box, the MP210 is averagely sized for a multifunction machine, coming in at round about 45cm x 35cm x 17cm (not counting the headspace it needs ... ...the front panel are somewhat lacking in description, meaning that you will almost certainly have to delve into the instruction manual to find out what they do. Essentially, there are buttons for colour and B&W copy, 'Stop', 'Scan', 'Settings', 'Fit to Page', 'Paper Choice' and number of copies.
The photocopying functionality is very useful when you want a copy without having to start up your computer. It works very well with black and white documents, ...

Advantages: cheap, prints, copy, scans well. good all rounder Disadvantages: no usb, large size
...value machine and obviously the canon experience can be seen in this product. As I have two computers not networked i was pleased that this was light enough to move and did the plug and play printing without problems. Like most printer manufacturers, it is annoying that you need to provide your own usb cable but all the manufacturers seem to be at that now. It wasnt a problem for me as I had my old one, but keep your old cables is my advice as this ...

Advantages: Good value for money Disadvantages: None
I bought this printer about a month ago and I am very, very impressed with it. For the price, I can't complain about anything at all. Set up was easy and took no time at all. Print quality is excellent and very fast. Scanning and photocopying is easy, a quick and effortless process. It's a little larger than I expected it to be taking up quite a lot of desk space, but i's good looking and feels very solid. The paper loads from the back, which may ...

Advantages: Inexpensive, easy to use Disadvantages: Paper loads from the rear(not a problem for everyone)
I purchased this printer in December and it is simply the best printer I have had . It is extremely easy to use,all the navigation tools are easy to understand the quality of printing and scanning is excellent and the photographs are exceptional especially considering I paid less than fifty pounds for it. If there are any down sides to this printer it is that the paper loads from the back and where my printer is situated this makes it hard for me ...

Quick review of Canon MP210
All-in-one machines are usually more expensive than their simple printing counterparts and it's unusual to find one at under £50. Canon's new PIXMA MP210 is unusual, though, and offers all the copy and scanning advantages of its bigger siblings at a true budget price.
For a Japanese product, this Canon is surprisingly bulky, with a large grey and black case echoing the lacquer-box look of its immediate predecessors. A 100-sheet feed tray folds open and extends up at the back and an output tray folds down and pulls out from the front. ...

Quick review of Canon MP210
A very good all in one printer. The ink cartridges don't last long though - I only managed to print out about ten photos and image started to fade. Not a bad printer with the £20.00 cash back from Canon!!! I was hoping to use it with my Mac as well but I only want to use the Op system 9.2 and it don't like it. The fact that the cartridges have their own heads make the quality of the prints very good, although it makes them a lot dearer to buy. ...

Advantages: cheap, does what it says Disadvantages: somtimes abit slow
A real decent quality printer for the price,and does exactly what it claims to.If you are on a budget and need a printer this is a good start.
I wouldnt reccomend it for serious photo/file printing though as the quality isnt the best and it seems to drain the cartilidge more than my last printer but for the price you really cant complain!
If you have an small business office or work for home occasionally it is an good deal.
Although it does the ...

Advantages: Cheap printer at £38 Disadvantages: Basic
I brought this printer when my epson gave up. I got it from Amazon for £38 (plus I brought a cable for £2.99 as one doesn't come in the box).
When it arrived, it was very easy to set up. There were instructions for a quick set up. I would say it took me no more than 15 mins to get it working, from the time it arrived until I started using it.
The printer comes with a black and a colour cartridge included in the price.
I was very impressed with ... ...work well too.
It does take up a fair amount of room, but for a multi purpose printer it isn't bad. I would recommend this printer as when you take into account the cost, you cant go far wrong. It is basic but does the job.
Unfortunately I missed the cashback offer by 2 day! ...
