Summary: Best printer I've ever owned!
Comment: I've been through a lot of crappy printers and this one was the best I've ever had. It's held up through 4 moves, a lot of printing through grad school, and the best part is that the ink cartridges are cheap and last a long time! I also recently discovered that it prints great pics! All around, you couldn't ask for more for $99.

Summary: Solid Performer on 4X6 photos
Comment: The Canon i470D has turned out to be a very good investment. I am in electronics sales and we are constantly told to that "features tell & benefits sell!"
Well, this printer has provided me with a lot of benefits. I've had it for a year and I love it.
Benefits are: solid printer for Word documents, spreadsheets and especially WEB pages. It has not smeared or clogged the heads or printer as my old HP 660CES.
But the biggest benefit is that I can print crystal clear 4X6 prints of my new gradnson. I give them to relatives and not a one guessed that I printed them on a PC printer. I use Canon glossy photo paper but just found that FUJIFILM glossy works just as well.
Bottom line is that this printer provides me with all the benefits I was looking for. I hightly recommend it for someone like me who dowsn't want to be too technical but get a printer that works well over the long haul.
PS, I also have a Canon CanoScan D1250U2F Color Image Scanner and also got it a year ago. It also has provided me with a lot of benefits.
I am getting a new digital camera for the holidays and most likely will get a Canon Powershot A95 when the price reaches around $300. I think the 3 should really work well together. Since I am not a real techie I think this combo will suit me just fine.

Summary: Outstanding printer...
Comment: The Canon i470D was impulse purchase and it has turned out to exceed my expecations. The images are excellent and the control over color levels "to the edge" prining makes this peripheral an exceptional buy!
Pros:
1. print quality;
2. built-in card reader
3. incredible software package;
4. print to the edge option
5. print saturation options (per color including black)
6. art-work backgrounds with frames for multiple images
7. image browser with slide-show
8. picture stitch program;
Cons:
1. should use Canon paper only; most reliable results
2. small ink cartridges means you replace more often

Summary: Very pleased after six months...
Comment: This printer has been great. Bought it for $50, after a $50 instant/in-store rebate. The black ink cartridges are inexpensive and longer lasting than my previous, and costly, BJ-100 cartridges. The printer is fairly quiet and prints at an acceptable speed. So far the print quality (black & color) has been excellent. I have yet to use it for any photo pics though - so can't comment there.

Summary: Great Printer/Great Price
Comment: Excellent quality of printed items - documents and photos. What's better is the long-lasting cartridges and their low price.
