Canon Pixma MP600

Advantages: High quality printing, quiet and looks good
Disadvantages: Expensive ink, as always

...ugly in an industrial way but that was a popular style a few years back. It produced pretty good document and photo prints and the scanner was adequate for documents but not of a standard to copy photos. When coming to choose a new printer these were the characteristics I was interested in. It had to print to a high standard, the scanner needed to be better and I didn't want it to look like an ugly lump of corporate kit with attachments falling off all the time. Despite painfully setting up the fax functionality first time round I have never received or sent a fax using the HP, in fact I don't think I've faxed anything this century so that functionality was dispensable. At a snifter under £100 the Canon Pixma MP600 packs a lot of quality into an attractively designed package. Ignoring any pointless fax functionality it concentrates...

Review of Canon PIXMA MP 600

  Canon Pixma mp 460 - Fantastic all in one

Advantages: lcd display, durability, optional Bluetooth connection, qualitys, speed, design, functionality, rich software, reliability
Disadvantages: could be litle smaller

.... Just think for a second and ask yourself a question. How would it be to have a scanner, printer and photocopy machine in one device? I had like this about year ago and it is not comfortable. You occupy only USB ports, have more cables behind and less room for anything on a desk. Cannon came across with Pixma mp460. This quite medium sizes device is brilliant and quality breath taking. Printed a number of pictures with it on an Ilford glossy photo paper and could not believe that they look so great. Printed previously some pictures from Snappy Snaps and there was absolutely no difference. First what I can truly tell is that all information's I give you come from my experience only. I own this device so my review is going to be as close to reality as only possible. I have got it 9 months already. Let's start. Display Very...

Review of Canon Pixma MP460

Canon Pixma MP190 Good value, decent Printer

Advantages: Very good price, good print quality
Disadvantages: Does not come with USB cable to connect to computer.

...I have just bought and finished installing this printer, so I have decided to share my views on it. I bought it at the local Tesco Extra, after some research I found that they offered it at the lowest price, at £30. I also got 10% as they only had the display one left in store. However, as I bought it in store I did not get free delivery and had to carry it the 2 miles home, something I wont recommend if your arms get tired easily. It comes in a large box, and is well packaged so it does not rattle about in the box. You are provided with the Pixma MP190 printer, 2 ink cartridges (one black and one colour), setup CD-ROM, Printed documents and a power cord. You will need to buy a separate USB cable to connect the printer to your laptop or PC, something I found out to my annoyance after carrying it all the way home and excited to get...

Review of Canon Pixma MP190

Canon Pixma MP600 Printer

Advantages: Very Multifunctional
Disadvantages: Cost of replacement cartridges

...The Pixma MP600 is a very versatile printer: It really is a multi purpose printer, giving you plenty of useful functions. The Operation Panel, which is found at the front of the printer and has a small 6.3cm TFT screen, enables you to quickly see what task you want to tackle and has an easy - scroll wheel which takes you from one action to the next ie. scan, print, maintenance etc. It opens with a home screen and as you turn the wheel, moves you into the next mode. Select Memory Card and the mode screen appears. When selecting the mode and pressing the function button, the instructions for the selected mode are displayed. Copying: Load the page you wish to copy, select copy on the home screen (make sure the paper is loaded) - you can specify the page size, media type and any other settings you need to set up, there is...

Review of Canon PIXMA MP 600

Pixma Print

Advantages: Easy set-up, quick, quiet quality output
Disadvantages: Not easy to find

...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. This meant, I could actually go for ?the best? irrespective of actual £?s. So how in a geek-free zone was I supposed to figure out what was ?best?? First: determine what I wanted it to do. Second: where did I need it to sit ? size/weight could be an issue Third: what did the experts say? The Pixma MP830 will not be everybody?s ideal home printer. Mainly because it isn?t a home printer, unless you have the kind of family with the kind of hobbies that mean you do a lot of printing from varying sources. I was in the process of setting up a home-based office. What was needed was...

Review of Canon MP830

Canon MP 460 printer

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: poor photo prints

...to print over 50 different photos. All of them were left looking like everyone had freckels and skin tones were next to useless. Definatly not ones you want to show anyone. Even when put through a cleaning cycle there was no difference. On the bright side, when you printed text using only black ink it was crisp and very clear right down to no 8 font size. Apart from the nice looking screen area it has nothing to excite me. After using the machine for a week I have took it back to the shop, why, because of the banding, lack of colour depth and a sqeek on the slide rail when the cartridges are going across. So not really impressed with this one. I would stay clear and pay more for a good printer. Canon has failed on this one I think....

Thoughts on Canon Pixma MP110

Advantages: Cheap ink cartridges, good quality printing and photographs
Disadvantages: Ugly appearance, user guides for software on CD not in paper format

...for a special photographic print head as had been used with some other Canon printers. All in all, if you do not mind the rather ugly appearance of the Canon Pixma MP110, for the price it is an excellent all-in-one printer for the home or small office. It uses some of the cheapest ink cartridges around and prints good quality documents and photographs. The scanning and copier functions are quick and simple to use. The Canon MP110 is a very practical, cost effective and functional all-in-one, albeit a bit of an ugly duckling....

Review of Canon PIXMA MP110

Canon Pixma MP750 - An excellent choice

Advantages: Fast printing and excellent print quality
Disadvantages: None really

...Having been through a succession of cheap printers in the past, we decided that this time, if we were going to get a printer, we were going to get one that lasted the course. We wanted something with ink that didn't cost the same as the printer to replace, and actually printed more than 2 sheets before running out! Our other specification was that as we had a digital camera, we were looking for a machine that would be able to print out all our photographs. (We have been storing them up on CD for well over a year and I was getting seriously fed up of relatives asking for photos of the children!!). With a little advice from Which Extra to point us in the right direction, and a lot of consideration, the Canon MP750 was our final choice. The manufacturers specification is as follows: Dimensions: (WxDxH) 48.6 cmx 47.2 cm x 31.4 cm...

Review of Canon PIXMA MP750/Multi-function Printer

Canon Mp180

Advantages: Brilliant printing and scanning!!
Disadvantages: None!

...This printer is excellent. It can be used with your computer or laptop and also works as a stand alone printer. The Printer also works with memory cards, from your camera or mobile phone. There is a selection of buttons on the front of the printer. Two of them are so you can use the printer on its own; you can scan a document or photo and print it straight off- in either black and white or colour by simply pressing one of these buttons. It also has menu buttons so you can change some of the settings. You can use glossy paper or normal and the print is perfect. The whole thing is very easy to set up and cartridges are easy to install. Make sure you buy an extra USB cable as you may need one- The one I bought was from Argos and it didn't come with one. I use compatible cartridges which work fine- but you can buy the Canon ones for around...

Review of Canon Pixma MP180

Pixma Quickma Super-pics-ma!

Advantages: Looks good, excellent spec for the price, 4 ink cartridges, good scanner
Disadvantages: Noisy scanner, long time to install software,

...I have had my new Canon Pixma MP520 about 3 weeks now and have used most of the facilities on it so feel able to do some kind of review of it. I did a lot of research before buying this printer and so far it has lived up to the expectations that I have of it. The Basics *The Canon Pixma MP520 is a printer / scanner / copier all-in-one. *It has 4 ink cartridges - Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow - so if one colour runs out you only need to replace THAT colour - not like some printers where you have to replace the whole 'tricolor' cartridge. *Dimensions are 445 x 378 x 172mm. It is not small - but NEAT - things store away nicely. I have it in my living room and it doesn't look out of place once all the 'flaps' are put away. *There is a small crystal clear 5.0cm TFT screen which makes computer-free operation easy. Simply...
