Review: Background
The Canon PIXMA iP4200 replaces the iP4000 and iP3000 in Canon s line of inkjet photo printers, but it does not include any revolutionary new features. What you will get with the iP4200 is a slightly less expensive printer...

Cons: None so far...

The Bottom Line: Get the best photo prints ever...

Review: Do you have a digital camera? Do want to print you digital photos at home? Do you want to save a lot of money while doing so? Then you definitely need one of these (Canon PIXMA iP4200) photo printers. My boss has had his new Olympus...

Pros: Printer is inexpensive, fast and prints great looking photos and documents

Cons: It guzzles ink cartridges and they're not cheap

The Bottom Line: This is a nice functioning printer and the cartridge use is more manageable when I print photos at Walgreens for 19 cents.

Review: I don t have a lot of needs for my printer, but the needs I have are recurring and important. There s the usual black and white musical lead sheets, coupled with some business letters. Then, there is promotional material for my performing and...

Cons: High ink cartridge consumption. Nozzle failure problems reported.

The Bottom Line: Good sturdy printer! Excellent color and black and white print quality.

Pros: Affordable, efficient, excellent quality results

Cons: None of significance

The Bottom Line: This is an affordable printer for quality at-home printing of photos. I am unable to detect significant difference between it and lab printed photos and this suits me well.

Review: I purchased this printer on clearance at Staples, bundled with a camera (the Powershot A410) for $150 total, so my absolute favorite part of this printer is the price.

At 29ppm black and 20ppm color, this printer does its work quite...

Pros: Price; speed; photo quality; color; text quality; auto-duplexing; ease of setup

Cons: Size; no 3rd party ink supplier yet; text flow; no USB cable supplied

Review: As an amateur photographer, I had been thinking for a while of getting a photo inkjet printer. The question became whether to get a general purpose printer with photo printing features, or a good text printer (perhaps a cheap laser printer) and a...

Pros: Flawless printing, Individual cartridges, very good prints, Hong Kong version prints DVD surfaces.

Cons: Software hung while loading in XP, Installed a banner on my browser

The Bottom Line: Very good photo printer. I bought it for its DVD printing capabilities. Check to see if that feature is included before buying. I highly recommend it for that.

Review: This Review is for the Canon Pixma iP4200

Printer was purchased in June 2006 in HONG KONG. It is now December 2006.
I have only used original Canon ink cartridges. They cost about 12 USD each over here.

The printer does a nice...

Pros: Double sided printing. Excellent print quality. Conservative on ink usage. Quiet. Easy to use.

Cons: Clogged ink heads. Opening new cartridge spread ink all over hands.

The Bottom Line: It's a good printer, no jams, good quality printing. If you're having ink troubles look to the vents on the top.

Review: About seven months ago I started searching for a new printer. I came on Epinions and found that (at the time) every review just LOVED the iP4200. Separate ink cartridges... double sided printing... Canon... what a deal!

So I went down and...

Pros: space saver, nice looking, speedy printing, low maintenance, reasonable ink costs and life.

Cons: Various issues with ink cartridges not being recognized. Software reports ink out when it isn't!

The Bottom Line: Good printer but beware of ink problems and a programmed software that tells you ink is out when it isn't prompting people to buy more ink when it's not needed.

Review: Overall I'm very pleased with the quality and speed of this printer. One huge complaint I have and this has been confirmed by others as well, is that the printer software will warn that the printer cartridge is out of ink, I take it out snap it back...

Pros: Excellent photo quality prints

Cons: Replacement ink too expensive

The Bottom Line: Buy this printer - it offers excellent print quality and is a very simple printer to use. Highly recommended.

Review: This printer is easily the best photo printer on the market so far. The quality of the photo printing is second to none. For the digital photographers amongst us, this is the printer for you. It is Pictbridge compatible, which means you can plug...
