Canon i560 Desktop Photo Printer Reviews
Customer Rating:
Summary: Exceptional value.
Comment: I purchased this item on June 15 2004 for 85. After almost exactly four years the guy I sold it to called me to complain it wasn't working. I was totally expecting it would have to be replaced, but after cleaning the print head with a wet tissue and replacing and priming the ink cartridges, (the black was empty) the thing started printing as if it was a brand new printer.
I have never seen an inkjet double in price before. I wish I had bought one for myself back then.

Summary: Great Printer
Comment: Why review a 5 year old printer? Why not? If you have the chance to pick up one of these used in good condition go ahead and buy it. It prints good text documents and excellent photos. I've printed many photos as gifts for friends and family and the photos all came out great. Oh and ink for this printer is dirt cheap.
The only downfall is that this printer was made before non-fade ink formulations were common. So if you put photos printed from this printer in direct sunlight everyday, the photos will fade over time. Personally I've had little problem with this but you should be aware of that possiblitiy.

Summary: Excellent Printer!!!
Comment: This is my second Canon printer that uses 4 small cartrides instead of two
costly big ones. Prints like a charm; easy to operate and to make sure it
runs forever (hopefully!) I ordered 3 extra Print Heads from the company.
Makes fine colored prints, quick action. I will ALWAYS hunt for a Canon
using four inexpensive cartridges, because you replace one cartridge at a
time as it runs out, at as little as $l.75+ each (off internet). So much
cheaper to operate than those machines that demand $$ big cartridges. I
would never even consider any other kind of printer, and definitely no
other manufacturer.

Summary: Great printer, but I don't understand the price.
Comment: When I bought this printer in 2003, It was a little over $100. I don't care what kind of software they may have added, but it's worth a little over $100. (The better software also comes with the Canon A560 and S3 cameras.)
As with most things Canon, this is a good piece of equipment. It doesn't use ink sparingly, and the cartridges are expensive, so the one thing I use the printer sparingly for is printing photos.
It's relatively fast. Print quality is excellent. Ink dries quickly. And if you are going to print photos, HP Premium Plus glossy photo paper "outshines" Canon's own. Ink dries faster on HP than on any other I've tried -- and that's a lot.

Summary: Unreliable printer
Comment: I bought this printer because Consumer Reports rated it very high and it worked for two years then suddenly I got the blinking thing and there is no way (at least in the manual or in their website) you can fix it! What a total waste! I noticed that someone here had the same problem. To be fair though, the printing quality is pretty good.
