Comment: I am so impressed with this printer! The quality of the pictures rivals that of a regular camera and I can print them instantly! The software was easy to install and I was able to print in minutes. After printing a few pictures, I compared some of the prints to those I had printed by Shutterfly.com and found that the Canon colors were more true-to-life. Some of the Shutterfly pictures had a green tint but the same Canon prints were much better. There are two downfalls so far. 1)It has been difficult to find Canon photo paper in the stores (I went to Office Max, Staples (a very small selection), and Walmart). 2)The ink refills do not list the Cannon i900D on their boxes and the folks at the office stores could not tell me which refills to use. But, according to Canon (customer service answered very quickly), the printer is so new that i900D is not in the current literature. However, I have printed almost 100 pictures and the ink is still going strong. I think that at $222, this printer is a steal! I am extremely happy with it and am recommending it to everyone!

Comment: After much research and reading all the recommendations on this site for both this printer and the HP 7960 I chose the Canon mostly because of the seperate ink cartridges and fear of jams on the HP's. I am already an owner of a multifunction HP that has always given me problems and most frustrating of all the color printing has NEVER been good. The colors were never true and looked completely cartoonish. I have heard many good things about the HP photoprinters but really dont want to take any more chances. I bought the Canon yesterday morning and hooked it up to my pc and with the very first print was amazed at how great the quality is. It was super simple to hook up and use and produces such vibrant prints that I cant tell the difference between a photo that was chemically processed and the ones that are printer produced. It is true borderless printing and the Canon paper is like regular photo paper without the perforated edge one has to tear off. What a great product, and it does exactly what it claims to do: produce great photos of good quality quickly. Be aware that you will need to purchase a USB cable to hook up the printer to the pc in order to print from your pc, and it only comes with 5 pieces of 4 x 6 paper. You will definitely want to purchase more paper, because once you start to print out your beautiful pictures you wont be able to stop. I Highly recommend this printer because of the quality and ease of use. This is my first Canon product and will from now on be a loyal customer.

Summary: i900D Priter
Comment: Quality is excellent, some of the best photos I have seen from an inkjet printer. The enclosed software does the job but is not intuitive in use. There are 2 basic printing programs that could have been combined into one program.
The direct print from a memory card takes quite a bit to get used to. It is a difficult series of menus to go through that will perhaps become easier to use with practice.
I like the ability to change individual color cartridges when one runs out without having to change the print head.
It seems to handle various types and weights of paper without problems but the 4x6 feeder is somewhat clunky to use and seems to jam occasionally.
When printing edge to edge on 4X6 it is not true edge to edge as it leaves a margin that necessitates the use of a tear off tab.
One major problem is that Canon's listing says that it supports the XD card in the specifications, I found out the hard way through Canon's technical support that it requires an adapter card from XD to Compact flash that costs about $60.00. In some of the specifications, the need for an adapter was NOT listed and in others it was cleverly worded so that it seemed ambiguous.

Summary: Great Prints!!!!
Comment: After much research on the web I chose this printer based on previous history of canon printers. When I received this printer I printed a 4X6 in less then 10 minutes out of the box. To my delight I was extremely impressed by the print. I printed some more pictures and was so impressed I had to take them to work. At work my friends were very impressed also. Some of these friends are plastic surgeons who are involved in digital and 35MM photography so to impress them tells a lot about this printer. I should of been a rep for Canon because I conviced many people to buy this printer. I compared these prints to others,no comparision. The Canon prints where much better and where as good as 35MM prints. As for cost of the prints the paper was 15 cents and the ink I don't know yet. But you can buy generic ink as low as 1.50 for each ink tank. So I would est. the cost of a print to be less than 20 cents. I would recommend this Printer without hesitation. Jan, 4, 2004. I've bought Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy from Amazon at 7.49 for 50 count. So far the ink has not even move after many pictures and black and white copies. At work at least 5 people have bought this printer and everyone has been extremely happy over the results.

Summary: Canon out colors HP
Comment: Can't decide between this machine and the HP 7960? I've tried them both and this is the winner.
The print quality is much warmer, HP felt a little sterile. The Canon machine feels more substantial, the HP felt cheap and skidded across the desk. On the downside, the LCD on the Canon isn't very clear and the set up takes a little longer. Overall, Canon is the winner, add a $... in your pocket and quicker printing, and the answers easy.
