This printer replaced my old one that died when our phone line was struck by lightning. It is exactly what I needed and works great. A little slow (and noisy) on the initial warm up but all in all a good choice.
I was pleased with the turn-around time from date ordered until arrival, very prompt. Easy to set up and use.

I liked this Canon all-in-one printer a lot. I am a very non-tech person, and I was able to read the directions and set it up myself. I own a Mac Powerbook, and while I can troubleshoot a few minor things, that's about it. As I worked my way through the instruction pages it went surprisingly smoothly, and the illustrations provided by Canon really helped. Even though I got temporarily caught when I didn't have the MX340 on while trying to install the ink cartridges I was able to determine the problem with Canon's clear instructions.
Like with the Canon MX340, the instruction manual is well-illustrated and explained in a clear manner that made hooking up the printer a straightforward process. It took me only a half hour to install the software, and that includes the time I spent registering.
For me, the quality of the printing and the speed of the printer is good - I do not use this printer for professional reasons. I had a HP all-in-one before this, and although the print may have had a slighter higher quality resolution, the HP used up ink way too quickly. I do not think that's the case with this Canon although I have to use it more to find out. The cost of ink replacement is obviously an important issue.
Note that you can get the Canon MX340 for less money, and to me it seems like the same product, minus a LCD screen. If that is important to you, then you should go with this newer model. Otherwise, that may even be the better deal.
Recommended, especially for the price.

Having owned an MX850 and MX860, I was a bit apprehensive about the MX350 being too home-oriented for someone as self-important as I am. Surely, you can't get a decent printer at this price, Canon or not.
Canon proved me wrong.
With the previous experience, setting up the MX350 to work on my home network was pretty straightforward. I'm using three Macs and a Windows 7 machine in my house, and anticipated that Canon would put ancient drivers on their installation disc. Not willing to chance it, I downloaded the latest software from Canon's site, and was on my way in a matter of minutes.
If you're planning to skip the disc, and use a Mac, you'll want to install the IJ Network Tool first, to reduce frustration. From there, go with the driver, and then the MP Navigator software. Trust me, you'll skip a lot of frustration this way, if you're not using the disc.
As expected, the text output was "cheap laser" quality, if not a touch better. Scanning was surprisingly quick, for text and simple graphics. Not surprisingly, doing any sort of higher-res photo scanning is on the slow side, though the image quality is better than acceptable for most home users. Printing out photos produced better than expected results, though not without some edge bleeding even on decent-quality paper.
One thing you may be contemplating is whether to go with the MX350 or Canon PIXMA MX340. If you're trying to decide between the two, here's the only difference I found after a side-by-side comparison: the MS340 doesn't have an LCD screen.
What's the LCD screen worth? That really depends. If you're planning on connecting your camera directly to the MX350, it definitely makes it easier to find your pictures (assuming your camera isn't capable of displaying the pictures when connected to a PictBridge-capable device). On faxing and scanning, the on-screen instructions can also be helpful to less technical users. Ultimately though, they're both solid printers that are a steal if you're going to use the scanner and / or fax.

I haven't had this printer too long, however it has been the easiest one yet to use. Way better than the old HP I had.
By Rivendell (Illinois, USA)
I just replaced a Canon MP350 with this model as it had stopped working properly and was too expensive to fix. I have only started using this today and though I preferred my old one, this one suits my needs. This model is very good on the regular printing of documents, and the scanning and copying work well. On the downside, it is much noisier than the old one, even on the night setting, and the photo printing is abysmal. The Canon MP350 had a lot of ink tanks, and that was becoming way too expensive and I made a conscious decision to buy this newer model knowing it would most likely print terrible pictures, and it does. I have another HP printer that was cheap and does great pictures - so I was not concerned. If you are looking to print a lot of photos, then don't buy this model, go with one with more ink cartridges, they work much better. The picture quality on this one is dreadfully washed out and not at all sharp. If you just want a simple fax, copier and printer - this is excellent and the ink cheaper than the old one - if you plan on doing loads of photos, don't bother, look elsewhere. For what I want this printer to do, it is very good and suits my needs - I mainly print text, copy and scan documents so for that it is excellent.
