Canon i475d Printer Review

Canon i475d is an Inkjet Printer That Offers True Quality Photos




MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price)
for Canon i475d : $79.99


Canon i475d produces true photo quality photos, text easily readable at 5 points or smaller, and saturated colors for graphics.

On the downside the Canon i475d is relatively slow.

The LCD and buttons on Canon i475d let you print from a camera memory card. Slots on the left side of the inkjet printer accept CompactFlash, Memory Stick, MultiMediaCard, Secure Digital, and SmartMedia cards.

You can also connect a PictBridge or a Bubble Jet Direct–compatible camera, so you can print using the camera's print command.

    Reviews Summary:
    The summary is based on testimonials of the Canon i475d users and editors in various sources such as PC Magazine, Cnet, PCWorld etc.

    If the LCD menu were easier to use and weren't so limited, the i475D would be worth the extra price over the i455. As is, it makes more sense to buy the less expensive printer and print from your computer. Or, for the same price, consider the i560.

    Pros
    • Direct printing from camera

    Cons
    • Relatively slow
    • LCD menu is difficult to use
