Summary: A bit drab
Comment: Yes the printer has some nice features. Low price ink (about 10.00 per cartridge), memory card reading (reads as another drive and can write to card, But when it comes time to print photos they are flat and lifeless. I compared three photos printed from my deskjet 5550 and all came up so short I threw them out. The deskjet won hands down. It made friends look pale with no depth even after changeing many settings. The photos also seemed a lot wetter then the deskjet. I checked cnets review a little to late and their tests show the same.

Summary: Great for Pictuers
Comment: This is an excellent Photo printer. The only thing is it prints at its best on Canon Paper. It has a build in memory card reader and you can even print directly from your Canon Camera without using a PC.
I printed about 50 4x6 pictures and I was amazed with the quality. They looked like regular pictures you could order from a photo lab. The price of the ink was quite low. Only 7.99 for the black cartridge and 18.00 for the color. You have to use canon paper to archive the best results I used HP Glossy Pluss and it was quite terrible.
For the price it's a great deal. It has a decent driver that has some auto settings that yield good enhancements. I suggest using the canon software to print instead of printing directly from Windows for some reason it gave me better results.
What I don't like is it makes odd sounds when its ideal and the ink cartridges seem smaller than a regular cartridge. I would recommend this printer to any amateur photographer who is looking to print better than decent pictures without burning a hole in your pocket.

Summary: the cheapest, but precisely the best!!!!
Comment: I got this printer at $50 dollars, and I can say it is the best $50 that i've ever spent. The printing quality of this printer is simply flawless. Go check out all those fancy inkjet printers and I haven't found anything that offers better picture quality than this one. The ink consumption is tremendously efficient, as it seems to print out 5 times of more 4 x 6 pictures with 1/3 of ink. (I also have Epson C60... and I don't know what to do with this crappy thingie.) There are also lots of features of printer that impressed me. Buy this one... and you will never regret.
