    Reviews Summary:
    The summary is based on testimonials of the Canon i450 users and editors in various sources such as PC Magazine, Cnet, PCWorld etc.

    Text appears sharp and clear, and the characters have clearly defined edges. This is true on both plain and coated paper, so the Canon i450 would be ideal for printing business letters. Canon can sometimes be accused of flooding the paper with ink to speed up the printing process, but that certainly isn't the case with the i450. When we printed a test photo, colour quality was a little variable with some shades appearing better than others, but overall the quality was very good. This is a relatively expensive printer, but if you can stand its looks it should reward you many times over.

    Pros
    • Good text and photo printing

    Cons
    • Relatively expensive for an inkjet printer
