Canon Pixima IP4300

Advantages: Easy to set up, good quality picture and text output.
Disadvantages: Could have better written manual

...Around the beginning of April, I switched on my old and trusted Epson 880 and went to print out a page, nothing happened. Nothing that is, except all the lights across the front of the machine flashing on and off. A quick reference to the handbook took me to the page that read, ?If all lights are flashing, there is an internal fault. Please contact a qualified Epson engineer?. Well it was getting on for 10 years old and had served me well, so I decided it was time for a new printer. I was fully intending to get another Epson, but the sales assistant in PC World advised me that a the Canon IP4300 was a far better buy, and would be far cheaper to run than any of the Epsons. After he showed me some of the photographic results, I was sold and I got to admit, I am very pleased with my purchase. On getting the printer home, I found it...

Review of Canon PIXMA iP 4300

canon pixma ip100

Advantages: portable printer and fast Printing speed
Disadvantages: none

...Canon continues to be a product of the successful Pixma portable inkjet printers with iP100 Canon ink and the number to be doubled to a maximum resolution of 4800x1, 200dpi color. As a result, I have seen a significant increase in speed and print quality, the portable iP100 competitive with even some full-size printer. I prefer this Canon for low profile, a fast print speed, improving the cartridge and the overall flexibility of this printer. While the iP100 same physical profile, single cartridge system has been absolutely perfect. First remove the top iP100 of the total number of jets 1088-1856. Compared with 1072 the jets in H470 and you'll see why the Canon more than a full model for HP in its class, the printer is more competitive. How iP90v and the iP90, which allows users to adjust their economic cartridges life with two...

Review of Canon PIXMA iP100

Canon Pixma IP4200

Advantages: Quiet, fast, square, a paper tray plus a feeder and excellent prints.
Disadvantages: Slightly bigger than others of the same price range.

...My previous printer was a Canon i850 - not a bad little printer - but it gave up recently so I started shopping around for a replacement. I half-heartedly looked at other makes, but the price and quality of the Canon printers, together with the price of their cartridges, always drew me back to them. They have a large range that I considered - the IP4200 was the cheapest at around £60, then the IP5200 and I also considered the MP500, an "all-in-one" printer. The specs I looked at were: IP4200 - price around £60, resolution 9600x2400 at 1pl (picolitre - very fine drops of ink), DVD/CD direct printing, one paper tray and one paper feeder. IP5200 - price around £82 and everything else much the same as above, but it had two paper trays. MP500 - price around £120, printer the same as above, but with a scanner/copier working at 1200x...

The Canon PIXMA IP1800 and the end of the world

Advantages: Cheap and replaceable. Attractive and efficient technology.
Disadvantages: Ink costs more than the machine. Potential ecological mayhem.

...My new Canon PIXMA IP1800 replaces my Canon PIXMA IP1600 so the planet may be doomed and It could be my fault. My Canon PIXMA IP1600 had nothing wrong with it. It wasn't broken. The pictures spilled out on glossy paper at A4 ready for framing. The text was crisp and black. I'd had it for a year or so. It was cheap yet efficient and as good as any printer I'd ever owned. It had no tray to catch paper coming out but otherwise was printing perfectly and I've been delighted with it. This is partly why I bought the Canon PIXMA IP1800 which is also excellent. But why bother? They're almost the same machine! The ink is running out on my old printer and, bizarrely, new cartridges would cost more than a brand new one. My wife was furious. She looked at the packets of ink cartridges with a shop assistant because she didn't believe me...

Review of Canon PIXMA iP1800

Canon or a Brother ?

Advantages: Good print Quality
Disadvantages: Cartridge prices

...This review is for the Canon Pixma IP4700. Setup --------- This printer comes inside a box which is heavily packaged and first off all you get the power cable. The cable is wrapped with this tie back but the problem is that when you unwind the cable you notice how it wants to try and curl back up again so you do need to try and straighten it out as soon as you can. You receive the disc which has the drivers on which you need to install on the computer otherwise you have no way of printing items off without it. There is nothing else inside the box besides the cartridges which are easy to insert and use. The disc is good because it is so simple to install the items onto the computer and this takes about a minute to do. You do not get a connection to the computer though so you do need to purchase one yourself and many websites...

Canon PIXMA IP5000 INKJET PRINTER

Advantages: Quality photos,2 paper trays,Prints on cd media,looks stylish.
Disadvantages: None i have found

...printing. Print quality can be changed to high, standard, draft or custom Colour adjustment is auto or manual or you can print in Grayscale. All printing can be previewed before printing. Text printing is fast and the text looks black. Photo printing is superb and this is what the printer was purchaced for. Printing has been done on cheap, epson and canon paper all with excellent results. Colours and skin tones are true to life, detail is unbelievable and colours have never run into each other. Canon Pixma printers must be developers worst nightmare. CD-R printing is so easy and the finished article is very professional. Before this i used a system called press-it which was quite fiddely and sometimes stopped the cd-r from playing, this has never happened with direct printing. If you have a pictbridge compatable digital camera you can...

Review of Canon PIXMA iP5000

CANON PIXMA IP4500

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...

Review of Canon PIXMA iP4500

Extremely happy with my Pixma iP4200

Advantages: Good quality low price, with individual inks
Disadvantages: Just a bit bulky

...Decided to change over from Lexmark when my yellow ink ran out and it would cost more to buy ink than to replace the printer. Anyway I decided to go for the Canon based purely on the fact that it had individual ink cartridges at around £8.00 each. The Pixma iP4200 was the cheapest I could find and had quite an impressive spec, but I was a little dubious that such a cheap printer would perform well. Needn't have worried: Easy to set up if a little on the large side. Has two paper trays so you can have two types of paper in the printer at the same time (I keep photo paper in the bottom cassette and plain paper in the top feeder) Prints double sided documents just by selecting duplex printing in the properties dialog. Prints to CDs using the CD tray provided. Prints incredible quality photos on glossy photo paper. Ink seems...

Review of Canon PIXMA iP4200

Excellent Printer From Canon

Advantages: Excellent Print Quality, Fast Printing, Reasonable Price
Disadvantages: None

...were ready for replacing, this is a fairly important factor for me as I tend to replace at least one ink cartridge per week. I decided my new printer was to be a Canon and set about surfing the internet for a decent deal. My new printer, like my old one, would be printing black only 99% of the time but occasionally I like to print a photo out and so it needed to be good in this area also. I must admit I get most of my photo printing done by the professionals now, as there is so much competition and this has brought the prices of printing right down, but sometimes you just want to print one off there and then and so it is nice to have the option available. I found the Canon Pixma IP4600 on a site I have used before a couple of times and one I find to be very good. They are called OYYY.co.uk and they tend to be very competitive on price...
