 "Excellent little All-in-One Printer" 2010-07-22
By Emily M.
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.

 "A great deal for the price" 2010-07-15
By sb-lynn (Santa Barbara, California United States)
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.

 "Fast, sharp output, nice size, nicer price." 2010-07-09
By Kevin Nicholls (Milford, MI)
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.

 "So far so good." 2010-07-07
By D. Buesch (Silverdale, WA)
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.

 "More Than Adequate Printer" 2010-07-05
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.

 "Great wireless printer at a reasonable price!" 2010-06-05
By J. Robbins (Dallas)
I've had the MP640 for 3 days. I bought this to replace my HP AIO printer because the HP software was a nightmare to manage. The MP640 is easy to install following the provided instructions and onscreen prompts. Takes a little while (maybe about 1.5 hours total including the PC software). Once turned on, and all the hardware setup is competed (installing print head, ink cartridges and the automatic print head cleaning/alignment), the MP640 detects your network and leads you through the steps to define it to the network.



Once the PC software was installed on my Vista desktop the printer was installed and printing and scanning testing worked great. Also installed the software on my XP laptop and printed from there as well. The software provided has a reasonably friendly interface (Solution Menu) although a little cluttered with Canon marketing buttons.



Ease of use and print speed are the top items for me. The print quality is very good but not quite 5 stars. As always, Amazon.com did a great job of shipping the printer to me. I paid for it on one day and it was delivered to me the next day.

 "Wow!" 2010-06-02
By A PA mom
This is a GREAT printer! Setup wasn't too bad, but you cannot beat the ability to scan, copy, and print wirelessly using one machine. The price really makes it hard to resist.

 "Terrific machine" 2010-06-01
By P Jerome (Denver, CO USA)
It was a great day when the MP640 arrived - not the least because I could finally pitch my HP AIO! Great printer for all kinds of print jobs with a very intuitive user interface. It took a little while to get it linked up on our homegroup wireless network, but only because the password the printer needed was one digit off from our homegroup password. Once we identified that gap, it was a breeze to set up (highly recommend you download the Wireless Setup Assistant .exe file from the Canon website so it can pinpoint the right SSID and password).

 "For once...an easy wifi printer setup!" 2010-06-01
By Janet Spain (NYC)
This printer has looks (I bought the burgundy model) and delivers good quality prints. This is the first wireless printer that I can say is very easy to set up. I have owned HP, Canon, and Brother photo printers and multifunction printers and I am so tired of spending untold minutes/hours to try setting up the wifi only to find an error code repeatedly...this printer prints like a Canon (excellent quality) and sets up like a charm. No regrets.

 "Great Printer!" 2010-05-30
By CKB
My opinion is the picture printing quality is very good. I use the Canon glossy photo paper and it produces terrific prints. I imagine the quality of the pictures being printed would impact the results.

 "Have TWO useless printers now" 2010-06-03
By Jacques Laroque (Michigan USA)
I wish I had time to put up a video review: the video I shot of the 2nd installation / startup attempt would "say it all." I got the first new Canon MP 990 last week. I carefully unpacked and set the printer on a good surface for set up. I followed the simple-looking directions with plenty of time set aside for this task.



Problem: Canon ships this printer with the print head separate - expecting anyone (about whom they know nothing) to finish assembling the printer for them. Following the diagram (one panel easily read & understood), I inserted the print head oriented per the illustration: the print head went partially into place in the print head carrier and STUCK without seating to the bottom of the carrier. This means that the print head remains too high to install the ink cartridges. And - when you turn off power, the carrier attempts to return to the "home position" - jamming against the side of the cover under which it is supposed to be positioned. - The the print head lock lever cannot be lowered to permit this action to complete.



Called Canon Support and we spent 20 minutes trying all suggestions (to either seat the head completely or extract it for another try). The print head wouldn't budge. Finally, I was told to FORCE the lock lever down so that the printer top could be closed and readied for return. I was told: We will send a refurbished MP 990 with the print head installed. (Which they should have done with all these printers in the first place.)



The replacement printer arrived yesterday (6/02/2010). I waited until I had ample time in the evening and: proceeded exactly as I did the first time with set up. When I opened the front tray: I immediately saw the print head in its sealed package, just like the original new printer! Canon seems not to understand the term, " factory installed."



So naturally: I again attempted to do this print head installation and again it jammed and cannot be moved. I now have TWO useless Canon Pixma PM 990 printers sitting here taking up space. I will have to pack both up and find a way to return them - I'm not set up as a "shipping department."



I did a lot of searching before buying this printer. I got 'fooled' because I thought Canon might be as good a making printers as they are at making cameras. This is evidently not true. I am angry and very disappointed.

 "All Told, Things Worked Out" 2010-05-30
By cgilbert (Palo Alto, CA USA)
The first printer that arrived had a major problem that could not be fixed. Support had us box it up and return it for a second unit. Next one that came (and quite fast) was just fine. Convenient support for setup that would work with MAC OSX 10.6, Snow Leopard, had not been accomplished yet so the setup was a nightmare. I believe that has now been completed and the setup would just be installing the one file instead of the various that we had to do.



That said, the printer returns beautiful photographs and works just great.

 "Disappointing experience" 2010-05-26
By designer (Irvine, CA United States)
I am using Mac OS X 10.5.8 version and was very excited to get a wireless all-in-one Canon printer. Since I used to have many generations of HP printers, this time I wanted to give a different brand a try. After a relatively easy wi-fi connection setup to the printer, I have used it for a few weeks to find out that the connection is very spotty. Event though the printing speed is great and the process is very quiet, every other time or so I get no connection no matter what I do to revive it. The worst part is that a scanner didn't connect at all! After installing all updates and fixes from the Canon web site, spending hours with a surprisingly accommodating and supportive Canon tech support, and finally switching to the wired connection, the scanner still refused to connect. I had to return the product, and now I doubt I will ever buy a Canon printer again.

 "Great quality. Hard to find supplies." 2010-05-25
By S Bear Devitt (Milwaukee, WI USA)
The MP990 is a fantastic all-in-one. I love the copy features and beautiful photo quality prints. But be aware: it is not incredibly fast, it is not quiet, my cats try to climb on the output tray, and it sucks ink like a Hummer sucks gas. It's worst issue is finding supplies. It's mailorder or no printing!! But I'd buy another tomorrow and I heartily recommend it to all my friends.

 "Canon made ink cartridges even smaller, ink is expensive" 2010-05-17
By W. Gayther
If you use the right paper (the like $1/page paper), it prints really beautiful pictures.



Pictures printed on anything other than the really expensive glossy paper doesn't turn out nearly as well. Print a picture on regular paper, it turns out kinda terrible (text is good though). Print it on Canon's cheaper Matte paper, it turns out better, but not great.



And it takes like 2 minutes to start up - want to quick print off directions from your email? yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...



But my real beef with the printer is the ink consumption. I had bought another Canon printer a year ago which broke, but Best Buy honored the warranty and I got this one. Turns out - they made this one so it takes *smaller* ink cartridges than the last one, and those last one's were pretty tiny.



After moderate use, I recently had to order new ink cartridges myself. Well - the standard pack doesn't come with "GRY", so I had to order that separate, as well as the big black one. For *just* the color ones - it cost $64.08 (sixty four dollars and eight cents) in INK off Amazon.



It's really expensive. And I don't think I printed that much stuff.

 "Works really well with my iMac and Snow Leopard" 2010-05-30
By Richard G. Russell (San Diego)
My ancient HP G5 All-In-One finally croaked, so I ordered one of these. I didn't really expect it would be any good considering how cheap it is, but I have been pleasantly surprised. The construction is really excellent, and it looks a lot better than most of the flimsy competition I looked at from HP and the rest. There aren't any floppy pieces dangling off it waiting to get broken. I am using it with an iMac 30" running OS X 10.6.3.



Setup was fairly straightforward using the wireless connection. The manual takes about 50 pages to get round to telling you that all you need to do is hit the menu button on the printer and find the LAN sub-menu, then choose the network and enter the password. The software for the iMac pretty much installs itself.



The included software is good. This is usually a problem with Macs and printers/scanners, but not this time. The scanner will scan straight into Mail, or into your Pictures folder, in jpg, tiff, or pdf. The scans are excellent, much better than the stand-alone HP Scanjet I paid $300 for not so long ago. Print quality is quite good, and reasonably fast, but I really got this for scanning and faxing, with just light duty printing when I don't want to walk over to the laser printer.



I am still laughing to myself over the insane value this represents. I honestly can't remember ever getting such a great piece of gear so cheap. It cost more to buy the Airport Express that hooks it to the LAN. I have never posted a review on Amazon before, but this machine is just so great that I had to.

 "FAST PRINTER!" 2010-05-26
By CJ (Jamaica NY)
Bought this to replace my dead Kodak ESP 7 piece of garbage.

Very fast printing, quality is great, and not noisy and annoying! I am a very happy man right now, and for $79.99 you can't go wrong. Copies, prints, scans and faxes, what more could you ask for?

Would highly recommend.

 "Great printer for the money!" 2010-05-17
By K. Sisson (Michigan)
This is the first printer I've bought that wasn't an HP. It is a wonderful product and so far, I'm very impressed with it. It was fairly easy to set-up so that was a plus. The print quality is great and I really like the lower cost of the ink cartridges (HP cartridges have gotten expensive). The other features work great from copying, scanning and faxing. The only thing that was a little unexpected is that the printer itself is bigger in size so it needs a little more space (it's more square than rectangular). It's a great value for the money and the quality is great.

 "Great Economical Printer" 2010-05-28
By MickeyRat (Bay Area, CA)
I was hesitant to buy this printer when I was told by a computer store employee that it was being returned by many unhappy customers. They ended up getting rid of them as freebies with a computer or other expensive purchases. I took a chance anyway and purchased it online for under $50 shipped and have been very happy with it. For the price it's a steal! The optional larger replacement XL ink cartridges are cheap enough, under $40 total for both the color and black cartridge including shipping. Just shop around for the best prices! I hooked the Canon up to my Dell XP computer and it auto installed the driver with no problems. I also Installed the Canon software to check it out. At first I tried "Custom Install" to pick what I wanted installed but it was hard to tell what program did what, so I did the recommended "Easy Install" instead. It's really easy to play around with the different programs to find out what is easiest for you. Some of the programs get you to the same place at the end. You can simply uninstall the programs you don't use like Registration, and Canon Solution Menu, a novice friendly screen which just routes you to other programs.



The printer itself prints very crisp and fairly color accurate photos. The paper tray feed which extends out from the back of the printer has been smooth and jam free so far. Paper is fed from the rear out to the front. If you forget to pop open the front, don't worry it'll automatically open up when you print. I've tried regular 8.5" x 11" paper, Glossy Photo Paper, and the provided 4x6 Canon Photo Paper samples. All work fine. You can also make B&W or Color copies (scans) without even turning on your computer. The handy fold up color LCD screen makes quick work of copies with the easy but detailed menu. The menu can scroll thru other sub menus for quite a few options like print quality, paper type... There are are 6 buttons and 1 multi function pad nearby with just the basics to keep it simple. A very nice feature. I haven't used the built in media card ports yet, which also allows for faster instant printing. The Canon software is fairly easy to learn once you play around with it a few times. And if the printers too noisy for you, It does have a quiet mode. I don't find it any noisier than my 10 year old HP printer. In fact it's much faster at printing than the old slow HP. Overall the Canon Mp490 is a very good printer for the few $ it cost. I don't print a lot of digital photos, and make an occasional copy or scan and print out some quick B&W text now and then. So this is the perfect low cost "All-In-One" for me. If you don't expect results like a printer 4 times the cost, The Canon is a great deal.

 "Great value" 2010-05-24
By GT
This is exactly what I was looking for. I was looking for an inexpensive, decent printer, and this is that plus more. I got a scanner which is a huge bonus- you can even scan multiple pages and save it as a single pdf file. I love that. The scan isn't that quick, but like I said, for the price paid, noone should expect better than that. I have only printed a couple of pages but the print quality is fine. For the amount I spent, this was an excellent purchase. If you're looking for a high quality super printer, then you should probably spend extra money and get something else. Otherwise, this is highly recommended.

 "defective" 2010-05-23
By konaram (kailua kona)
I have owned Cannon printers before and not had any problem with them. This one, however, did not even power up. It also looked like it had been opened before (parts were not in places where they were labeled to be). Thanks to the return policy from Amazon it was no problem getting a refund. However, being without a printer/scanner was a hardship. Went down to Wmart and got the canon mp250 for cheap and am thoroughly satisfied so far! AS you can see I still have faith in Canon and this was just some oversight on someone's part.

 "So easy, my mother can use it, and she knows nothing about printers!" 2010-05-19
By Martin L. Shoemaker (Hopkins, MI USA)
I bought this for my mom. Last year, she finally decided that her Kodak instant camera was dead (Kodak stopped making the film!), and she bought a digital camera. And since then, she has stored every picture on the camera itself, since she doesn't understand computers and doesn't know how to transfer images.



Sunday night, she said she heard about photo printers, and wanted to buy one. I went to Amazon; and thanks to Amazon and the fine sellers at Adorama, the printer was here today (three days later), and she's already printing pictures! The operation took her minutes to learn, and she's really thrilled with the print quality.



I can't speak to ink usage or reliability, since the printer's still new; but for ease of setup and use, the MP490 can't be beat!

The printer arrived swiftly and set up was easy. Installation on my computer only took a few minutes and there were no snags. It was so easy I did not have to use the instruction manual.

 "Awesome pinter for DVDs/CDs" 2010-05-13
By M. Strock (Idaho)
I bought this specifically for printing directly to DVDs. It's a U.S. model (and yes, I live in the U.S.), I'm aware that the DVD print feature is disabled on U.S. models BUT with a few tweaks (look up instructions online), a few tries, and a DVD tray (bought additionally through eBay), I was able to get it to work and work WELL! I printed straight to silver-printable DVDs and it looked amazing! It was really fast, too. It definitely met my expectations for my purposes. What do I do? Film/video productions from short films to live events. The finished product has to look professional for me and it did.

 "Never going back to Epson" 2010-05-09
By N. Belisle (rhode island, USA)
I haven't had it for very long, but so far, this Canon printer is excellent. I had no issues with setting it up or using it. I bought it after my Epson all-in-one machine died (well technically, the scanner still works) and I was unable to fix it myself. For the price, this Canon machine is definitely worth it. I was looking for a printer that was able to print on cardstock, and this machine got good reviews on several sites. I have been using this printer to print wedding invitations on 80# cardstock with no issues at all. I've been loading 6-10 sheets of 80# cardstock at a time in the top paper feeder and it works like a charm. Regular paper can be loaded in the bottom tray feeder, but I don't see why you couldn't use the top feeder as well. I'm not sure how quickly it will go through ink cartridges, but like another reviewer suggested, I'm most likely going to invest in a continuous ink system. I would highly recommend this product.

 "Great printer" 2010-05-08
By DC (MD)
I chose this printer based on the reviews, the price, and the style.



The setup was easy, however Canon puts 5 different pieces of paper with the machine that all pretty much say the same things. Between that and all the packaging it's easy to get a little lost (unless you just don't even bother with instructions, but I wanted to do it right the first time).



It's a little bigger than my previous inkjet, but that's okay.



The style is it's biggest winning point for me - everything closes up into a nice neat box. This was important because I have 3 cats and I don't need trays breaking off. One drawback is the paper tray - it collapses down and fits inside the bottom. Which is fine, but I have to pull it out, expand it, load the paper, and then stick it back in. And then collapse it back down when I'm done. I wish it just unfolded really easily, but it just takes a little more effort.



If you keep the paper tray out at all times, it has a cover so your paper doesn't get dirty with dust if it sits there for a while. That's a nice feature. The tray doesn't hold much paper at all, though.



Note that it DOES WORK ON 10.6 SNOW LEOPARD. It doesn't list that here but Canon has a driver for 10.6 on their site, and it works perfectly.

 "Lab quality photo prints" 2010-05-04
By Michael Alexander (Long Island, NY)
I had always been of the stodgy opinion that ink jet printers were strictly for kids, for school reports etc. If I printed something at home it was on my laser jet, and I sent photos print jobs to good online print services, like ShutterBug. I'm pretty into photography and have a high end SLR camera. I decided that I'd give this one a try for less serious photo prints or proofing, as it costs little more than the replacement ink set. But the quality of the printed photos blew me away. I don't send them out anymore!



The duplex printing is a nice option, but as for other color printing, I don't have an opinion. Some complained that it's slow, but that wasn't my concern. Also I have no technical problems with it in one year of ownership.

 "Great as a home printer" 2010-05-18
By F. Fontanilla
Our household needed a basic machine for non-office related needs. This printer fit the bill and gives us a little bit of spare horsepower for the occasional heavy print job (whether photos or text+images). I was surprised by the heft and bulk of the machine, but we have a pretty large work space. I can imagine the size being pretty annoying if we had less room.



The pros:

Very good quality photos (we print on Canon paper)

Wireless printing speed works just great, but we don't usually print when we're in a hurry

Good value buy for price and functionality



The cons:

Set-up for wireless was a pain

Installs a lot of Canon associated software - still unclear that our household would ever utilize all of those tools. We rely mostly on Photoshop tools to manage our higher-quality images.

Size and weight - more sleek and light would be better and simply more modern

 "I'm so glad I purchased this!" 2010-05-18
By Christabelle (Chicago)
I'm not going to give a technical review because others have already done so. I will just say that I am pleased since purchasing this printer several months ago. My favorite feature is the automatic two-sided printing where you do not have to flip the paper over yourself. I also love that it's so very quiet. My least favorite aspect of the printer is that I wish it were a bit faster - not the actual printing, but getting documents from the printer spool to the printer carriage. I cannot give it five stars because of this, plus on my printer, the cover for the memory cards does not stay closed. Of course, it would not have been worth returning the printer for this little problem.



Another note - I have never seen any office product that was wrapped and packed as well as this printer. I was very, very impressed!

 "Im surprised by all the great reviews for this printer" 2010-05-16
By The Mighty Pugs (AZ)
The print quality is horrendous compared to my 10yr old HP. It's so bad that I am starting to believe I set it up incorrectly. Also, I'm not 100% sure, but it may not even have a 'standby' mode. Not sure. Guess I'm just going to have to read the manual.

 "would not recommend" 2010-05-14
By Cynthia A. Keihl (Houston, TX, US)
I was very unhappy with the scanning. Images were not clear. Printing was terribly slow to start up and slow even with black only ink. Size is huge compared to other all-in-ones I've used. Went back to my old Epson. Returned item to seller.

 "Not for the novice!" 2010-05-14
By John J. Drake (Heath Springs, SC)
This was the most difficult project I ever encountered!!

Had it for 6 weeks now, have a 2nd pro coming over to try to install it as a wireless printer.

It was easy to set up using a USB cord, but the fun ended there.

Don't know if the MX870 is any easier on the install or not.

But this is not for the novice installer to try!

 "Pretty good - Just don't forget to change your paper setting" 2010-05-17
By W. Long (Madison, WI USA)
Mobility: I thought it would be smaller and slimmer. I am kinda disappointed on how bulky and heavy it is. It just didn't look like that bulky and wide in the picture. It also has the bulky ac power cord and also need a printer cable unless your laptop has IR connection. I won't really call that very mobile, but it's fine for home.



Quality of photo printing: It is really good. Just don't forget to change your paper setting when you print from your computer with glossy paper. Otherwise it prints with white lines and looks terrible.



Noise: It makes standard printer noise and shakes the desk, but when it prints on plain paper, it really scared me a little. It sucks in the paper in a sudden with a sharp noise a little like those in a horror movie.



It's alright overall. I got it for $141 reburnished with shipping included - lowest price I've seen in a year of waiting...

 "travelers friend" 2010-05-15
By M. Clanton
This is a fine little printer that is a great addition to your traveling needs, if you require a printer on arrival. I just changed to this after using its earlier brother the BJ-85. It served me well for about 9 years and this printer is much faster and prints much better. I do miss the scanning feature, but I am looking forward to getting a lot of good use out of this machine.

Have used it a few times on the road.Set up easy, prints fast.Not sure on the ink use yet,so far it works great.I think the battery would be a great addition. 1 less cord to drag around.

 "Leaves a lot to be desired" 2010-05-04
By Sarakani (Harrow United Kingdom)
I guided myself using the reviews here and convinced myself that this was a good printer. The price of this printer has dropped significantly since its release that makes it a better buy. If you want a good looking, compact printer that has wireless and battery capability this is certainly a contender. As for ink cartridges, yes, you can't buy them in shops but it is pretty straightforward to get them online.



The biggest problem with this printer is that the paper jams frequently and paper is nicked at the top. When the paper fails to get pulled in, the printer carries on printing and dumping ink regardless. If I asked it to print pages 1-10, it sometimes did 7 of these pages while pretending to have done 10 given the paper never got dragged in, and it printed into itself, the ink getting into the overflow sponge.



When I gave this printer a large job, it just could not cope, jamming frequently, pulling in two or three pages at once or worse, no pages at all while continuing to print. Heavier pages or higher quality may work better than standard all purpose A4 sheets that are chewed up and emerge with nasty looking stains. The quality of paper handling in short leaves a great deal to be desired.



If you are only printing 1-2 pages it probably works better. Folds up nice and compact and quite portable. I spent a lot of money on this, including warranty and I can see that overall this printer is a very poor relation of the cheap and excellent bubble jet printer that Canon used to produce that they discarded. Namely the Canon i250-350 both very compact, light, hard working printers. I printed my PhD off one of them and it worked really well. Borderless printing as well.



In this more advanced model we get the message "footer set outside printable area, continue?" (why can't it just fix the issue or give that option?) too much for comfort. The paper handling is abysmal and thus the price is not justified. I can only hope in vain that they could possibly upgrade the driver and the electronic workings inside via some kind of download patch.



At the moment I'm at a loss to find a cheap, portable and good quality printer like the old Canon i250 or i350. This is not evolution as we expect but products and services becoming worse and less value for money. Maybe the HP compact alternative may be better.

 "Great Portable Printer" 2010-04-14
By J. Michel (Seattle, WA)
This printer is fast and has amazingly good quality. I added the Bluetooth option which makes it a breeze to use on the go especially in tight quarters.

The quality of the finished pages is unbelievable especially if you consider it's size. Compared to my old HP portable this one wins in all categories hands down.

I would recommend this printer to anyone how is looking for a small light weight printer for on the go.

 "Outstanding Printer" 2010-05-14
By Nancy Stislow (Cleveland, Ohio)
This is my second canon medium format printer. It not only can print in the larger format for us hobbiests but I also use it for work here at home. It's fast for work and does an outstanding job on photos. My last canon lasted for over 14,000 copies both photos and documents. I've had this printer for 8 months and with daily use I have not had a bit of problem. I even have used 140# cover weight paper with no problem. I highly recommend this printer.

 "Great Printer but So-So Color Controls" 2010-04-28
By Alphia D. Larkins (Acworth, Georgia United States)
I have had the Pixma Pro9000MrkII for only two weeks. I am replacing my beloved Canon i9900 that I have/had used for a little over five years and had never had to take it in for a single repair until a few weeks ago and was told it needed a new Print Head, and my husband opted to buy a new one rather than have the i9900 repaired because he was afraid something else would "go out" on it and he would have to have more repairs done. But though I like this one, some things I liked better on my old Canon. There is a problem (it is a problem to me, maybe others have figured out a way to overcome it) but the colors print out too dark and color seems too saturated when I print personal photos from the computer. I have went into the area where I thought I would be able to control the colors, but it was not simple for me to do and not being a professional photographer (as so many of the other reviewers that I have read reviews from here claim to be) I do not know how nor what place to go to change the quality or the tone, whatever it is that I need to change. The colors are too dark, I need to lighten up skin tones, etc.and I think maybe better contrast. When I still had the i9900, which I did right after Christmas this past year (2009 and early 2010) I had a lot of picures that I had taken of my family at Christmas and it was very easy to adjust color on it and lighten the skin tones when the picture was too dark. I know this is painting me as a rank amateur and that is exactly what I am but I have been printing photographs on my printers for years and they were fine and now all of a sudden, I buy a new printer, just an updated version of my old one and should be as good, and probably would be if I could just figure out how to get the color printing for the photos to look better. It is fine for everyday printing of text and so on, but then, I could have bought a small fifty or sixty dollar printer to do that. I have an HP photo printer that still works fine but after I bought the i9900 I just stopped using the HP because the Canon was easier to use, I liked the ease of printing on the Canon as opposed to the HP, the paper loading was easier and the controls easier to get to, etc., but the print quality was almost as good on the HP as on the i9900 but it was easier for me to stick to one or the other so I chose to stick with the Canon. But I am not quite as pleased with the new Canon Pro9000. I was expecting so much more from it after reading the glowing reviews here that made it sound like the quality would be drastically improved with this new one but that has not been the case. I have to get this color corrected! Can anyone out there help me? Any advice or suggestions? Thanks.

the printer is big but with software could match colors to old hp printer---faster, uses less ink and have ability to adjust colors in software from old hp printer.

 "Beautiful prints, Lighting fast!" 2010-04-23
By Janine Martin
(Written by Janine's husband, but we have one family account)



I purchased this printer to replace my beloved Canon i900D which had finally given up the ghost after (I'm guessing) seven years or so of faithful service and I don't know how many thousand photos printed. Because Canon doesn't have a good six-ink printer in the i900D price range any more (all the inexpensive printers are four-ink only), I actually tried an Epson R280 first, but as was the case years before, was seriously disappointed by the mottled flesh tones in the Epson output, so I decided to cough up the $$$ and go for the Canon I wanted (well, I'd love the 9500 but I have some price constraints!).



This printer is a beauty! The print quality is at least as good as I had hoped: brilliant, life-like colors, razor-sharp resolution, no discernible dithering or spottiness in my prints, and just an all-round beauty to the finished output. And with a printhead that's nearly 3/4" wide, my prints just fly out. I haven't timed them yet, but I'd estimate 4 x 6 borderless prints come out in under 10 seconds, and my first 13 x 19 print yesterday zipped out in about a minute (possibly less)! Oh, and a 13 x 19 from a good 8MP image off my Canon 20d is a joy to behold! Fine resolution, rich color, and plenty of basic WOW! factor.



That printhead, by the way, is removable and replaceable. I don't imagine I'll need to do so any time soon, but the fact of a replaceable head should significantly extend the lifetime of the printer, I would guess.

Setup was easy and instructions were clear. The printhead alignment is fully automatic thanks to an in-printer sensor that "reads" the test patterns and adjusts accordingly, so there's no guesswork to it--just start the alignment and let it do its thing.



Separate ink cartridges--8 now instead of 6--mean you only change what you need. I haven't had it long enough to check, but if past experience is any indication, prints are very durable as long as protected from UV light (such as fluorescent or sunlight) by being displayed behind glass. My one wish is that Canon would have bundled (or made available at lower cost) a sample pack of some of their hotshot premium/fine-art papers as I'm not sure what some of them even are and would hate to spend the $$$ for a sample pack and decide they just weren't worth it.

I also miss the closed tray for 4x6 paper in the i900D. With the Pro9000 you really want to keep your paper stored out of the printer so you can close the lid, to keep dust out of both printer and paper. I wish I could keep paper in an enclosed bin. But that's a nit on an otherwise excellent product. Be warned, though, this printer is BIG. At 26.0" (W) x 13.9" (D) x 7.6" (H), be sure you have the real estate for this behemoth!
