Pinch Me! Gamble on a Canon Printer pays off !!

Date of Review:  Sep 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: An exciting novelty with some overdesign at the expense of functionality. Still worth every penny. Buy one, you'll like it.
Review: Canon PIXMAi MP500 "Some-In-One" Inkjet Printer

Updated 1/25/2007 to add comments on INK cartridge life and the "Reality" of printing from Memory Cards without a PC. (Both comments placed at end...

It's the cost of the ink, not the cost of the printer

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: You'll save money by spending more up front for a Canon that costs less per page. I recommend this for quality, noise, and price per page.
Review: As anyone who has ever owned an ink jet printer knows, the printers are cheap, and the ink is expensive. My last printer was an Epson CX-5200 which we paid $100 for. During the two years we used it, we spent about $30-50 a month for ink. I estimate...

Inexpensive Ink. Great Quality. Lots of Features. Am I Getting a Dell? Heck, No!

Date of Review:  Sep 23, 2006
The Bottom Line: The bottom line is if you are looking for a printer with good quality, speed, inexpensive to buy and own then the MP500 is perfect.
Review: I am sitting here typing this review on my Dell keyboard, staring at my Dell monitor, using Microsoft Word from Dell. But not this review nor any other Epinions' reviews will ever print again from the free Dell printer. After spending upwards of $40...

Canon PIXMA MP500: Inkjet Multi-Functions Don?t Get Much Better?

Date of Review:  Aug 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you need or demand quality and want a great photo printer or good all-purpose machine, this one is for you!
Review: You may have read my review of the Hewlett-Packard PSC-1610 all-in-one, in which I have mentioned replacing it with a Canon all-in-one machine. In either case, the printer I am presently using is this: a Canon PIXMA MP500.

After having had...

A true "best buy" for me

Date of Review:  Nov 22, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great for the money. Good all-around printer.
Review: I have had this printer now for 6 months and I must say I have been thoroughly pleased with it. When replacing an outdated lexmark I wanted a good, fairly priced AIO that could print photos pretty well but I didn't need a professional office...

MP500 is an excellent value

Date of Review:  Apr 27, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend the MP500 for budget-minded home-users who want photo-quality printing capability in a multi-purpose device.
Review: I did a fair share of research before settling on the MP500. Although I had already made my mind up, a Canon rep at Best Buy closed the deal when demonstrating what was perceived to her as its primary strength in ink cartridge value: the Canon ink...

The Best Printer I've Ever Owned!

Date of Review:  Nov 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: It's reliable and the print quality is exactly what you see on screen. Colors are vibrant. Frees up space on your desk by reducing gadgets needed.
Review: I have never owned a printer that lived up to expectations, until the Canon PIXMA MP500. This printer is the easiest to setup and reliable.

I can see how someone who isn't careful could break pieces, but, honestly, it's a printer not a...

Amazing value

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: IF you are looking for an all-in-one to supplement your laser printer, I'd highly recommend this product.
Review: I purchased this printer yesterday and set it up in about 30 minutes. I was attracted by the appearance, the fact that it does duplex printing, has high quality prints, LCD viewer for photos, ability to read memory chips, uses less ink than...

Scanner Issues

Date of Review:  Jan 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend this product. It's good value for money.
Review: Given the previously mentioned facts about printer costs vs ink costs, I agree that the Canon MP 500 is an economically satisfactory purchase. It's good money for value. There are many great features to have for the home office. The printing and...

Worked great while under warranty

Date of Review:  May 23, 2007
The Bottom Line: Look for something else. I am disappointed that this printer's trouble free life was only about 12 months and that it has to be replaced so soon.
Review: This was my first venture into all-in-one printers. I needed a printer with the print, scan, copy function and purchased the MP500 18 months ago based on reviews at the time. Printing color photos used a lot of ink. I found it easier and cheaper to...
