Newer and Better in Many Ways ,But Noisier!

bymarindavid Apr 19, 2007
41 Helpfuls 42 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros A lot of machine for the money. Good quality results!
Cons Big and a tad noisy. No USB cable included.
Recommended it? Yes

Recently, the HP T45 Multifunction machine that I had relied on for many (7) years, began to make the death rattles and errors associated with imminent demise. Also, since it hasn't been made for many years, the ink cartridges were becoming a bit of a hassle to find – and, though findable on Ebay,... Read full review »

Solid All In One for Home/Office

Pros Excellent performance. Attractive design. Not too big/heavy. Sturdy construction.
Cons Not networkable. Only holds 200 pieces of paper.
Recommended it? Yes

Purchased this unit to replace a Brother 4750 fax/copier/printer and an HP Deskjet 895CSE. Spent a lot of time looking at reviews and found that even equipment that was highly rated by professional reviewers often had negative reviews from consumers. I have come to the conclusion that in many... Read full review »

The greatest thing since sliced bread!

Pros Ease of use, affordable cartridges, several special copying functions.
Cons I haven't found any yet!
Recommended it? Yes

This has been the best printer we've ever owned! I REALLY like it.
The duplex printing is very handy, saves on paper. You can also make your own books with the booklet option. Prints quickly, scans quickly, etc. especially for an all-in-one printer (which I find are usually slow). You can... Read full review »

The MP530 works adequately, but demands sacrifices in the form of ink cartridges.

Pros Quality of printed photos.
Cons Scans the inside of the scanner lid, astronomical ink usage.
Recommended it? No

I bought this device to replace a Brother HL-1040, for two reasons: I was buying a home and I knew I would be doing a lot of scanning and faxing, and I wanted to be able to do occasional colour printing of photos and other documents such as maps.

Scanning

The unit has a flatbed... Read full review »

Great all-in-one printer

bydankim333 Nov 10, 2006
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Duplex capable, dual paper trays, inexpensive to buy and run, good print quality
Cons No network capabilities
Recommended it? Yes

After my Epson CX5400 decided to die on me from a manufacturing defect that they won't own up to (google "Epson CX5400 prints blank pages"), I began my search for a new printer. After much debate, I decided to stay with an inkjet printer for versatility (i.e. photo printing) and relative... Read full review »

HUGE DESIGN FLAW: READ BEFORE BUYING

12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 6 Comments
Pros Seemed good until terrible design flaw revealed
Cons Small problem with color ink makes unit useless for scan, fax, black&white printing
Recommended it? No

I was happy with my machine until a small problem revealed a catastrophic design flaw. Had I known, I would never have bought it. Please consider this before buying! Canon should be embarrassed about putting out a product with this flaw.

I had an ink cartridge error for one of the color... Read full review »

Very good printer but for one big issue.

byscristaldi Sep 11, 2007
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros All features but ink usage.
Cons Ink usage, a big negative! Costs a ton!
Recommended it? No

This is a good printer, especially the duplex printing function. That function is great, save paper, can do lots of good stuff with it.

However! Ink usage destroys all the good. Why? Have no idea why the engineers decided to do it this way but it really stinks.

As per Canon's... Read full review »

Nice printer, bad cartridges

bydennisb100 May 10, 2007
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Great specs
Cons Ink cartridges have bad chipsets, causing ALL functions of the unit to fail.
Recommended it? No

This AIO has a lot of nice features, particularly duplex printing. Unfortunately, I have had nothing but problems with the ink carts. Less than a month after purchase, an error message said the cyan cart was bad. And sometimes it said I had two cyan carts installed (huh?) Uninstalling and... Read full review »

I think it's a bit overrated

Pros Good print quality
Cons The first page after sitting for a while takes FOREVER to print. Noisy and heavy.
Recommended it? No

I read many reviews and this printer seemed to generaly get good ones. I needed a printer and it was on sale at Fry's so I bought one. It was to replace an HP6210 I broke. Looking at the specs for size, etc, it didn't seem much bigger then my old HP but once I got it home and in place it seemed... Read full review »

Pros flexible, easy to use, functions works well
Cons paper loading problem, quiet bit noisy
Recommended it? Yes

I got this printer for gift and now own it about four months and have used it for copying, printing, and scanning. I have not used it to print pictures yet.

It was easy to install although it took about 10 minutes. I mainly use it for printing purpose and it does a fine job at what I'm... Read full review »
