Canon Pixma MP160

-----| First Impressions |----- 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 follow pictures and i got up and running in no time. All good so far. However it is a bit large, bigger than i thought it would be for something that only printed A4. -----| Software |----- The ...
...however there is a lot of it, several different programs as it’s a multifunction device, printer/scanner/copier. Which i think could have been bundled into one well thought out program to save my desktop being flooded. I bought this printer because it said it was specifically for photos, so that’s what i tried first, and the software was very good at getting me set up to print, it lets you turn on functions like colour correction and vivid colour ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

What a printer for the price! I have owned this MP160 for over a year now, and it has produced excellent photo's, and excellent documents! its scanner is excellent and is very good for text! i have noted that people have said its photo quality is bad, but every photo i have printed has come out perfect, although you do have to use the proper fine photo ink cartridge (about £5 more) as the normal cartridge is designed for document colours and normal ...
...very pretty, but for a low budget componant, the cost goes into the insides, and they really have done a good job!!! it has one touch photocopying, in colour, and one touch for black and white too... which is very quick! it has almost one touch scanning.... but a press of the button will open up the scan driver window on you pc desktop and give you a sizeable amount of options if you want to play around! the scan driver lets you crop easily and adjust ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

=== Design === '''Looks & Feel''': Not the most attractive printer, but suitably executive looking and smart enough for any office. It is designed compactly, and so a lot of functions are crammed into not that much space. The scanner/photocopier part that lifts up is very flimsy and does not give the impression of a good, solid piece of equipment. '''User Interface''': The button panel on the front of the printer is incredibly easy to operate. ...
..."photocopy in B&W". There's a "SCAN" button, and an LED display that shows how many pages there are left to print. Completely foolproof! '''Size''': As I mentioned, it is relatively small and fairly light, and will fit on most coffee tables or even on most chairs. About the size of four shoeboxes. === Installation/Connecting to the PC === Fairly simple. You are provided with a CD, from which you install the basic software. Then you just need to ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

I recently purchased the canon mp160 as my old all in one printer was rubbish.It jammed all the time and was very slow! I thought that the printer was quite cheap as were the ink cartridges. i made the mistake before of buying a cheap printer but the cartidges were a rip off! Installation was easy, as the quick guide and installation CD are very simple. It only took about 15 minutes to set everything up before I was on my way. The printer is not ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

Ordered the canon mp160 as my old all in one printer was very old and no longer working effectively. I liked the fact that this printer was reasonably inexpensive and the cartridges appear to be cheap. Installing the printer is very easy. The quick guide and installation CD are very easy to use, and I had installed the printer to be computer in less than 10minutes. The printer is not as fast as some, but as far as I can tell the print outs are ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

This printer is easy to use from the start. From the setting up of the printer to the actual printing. The instruction manual and cd-rom are idiot proof. The cartridges are easy to install and readyly available to purchase (and not to expensive either). The print quality is excellent even if you are using a low quality paper. Obviously the paper the better the quality. I use mine to print a lot of things for hand made cards and scrapbooking and ...
...This is an all round good printer/scanner/photo copier with lots of useful features such as printing straight from your camera and the 'fitting to page' button. Excellent value for money and an ideal printer for families. Anyone can use it from kids doing school projects to mummy's that want to get a bit crafty!! ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

canon pixma 160 is an excellent printer. It gives first class photos and is very easy on the ink, which is a good thing because the cartridges are quite pricey. It is also very simple to operate compared to some printers. I rate it very highly and would recommend it to anyone. ...

Review of Canon Pixma MP160

...sharp, colour accurate results, the Canon did not. Half-toning was the major, and quite visible, fault. You may wonder why I saw fit to compare it with the Epson. The reason is that Canon's printer deserves such a quality companion; and my advice is, buy a printer of this standard - Canon if you like - and don't buy a scanner until you can afford a one of matching quality. ...
