Important Printer Buying Tip:
ALWAYS check for the ink cartridge prices before you purchase a printer. Why? Sometimes cheaper printers end up costing more because its ink cartridges may be way expensive. You should calculate the "cost of ownership" per month. The math is simple: (number of prints per month) times (cost of the cartridge) divided by (the yield of the cartridge). Yield is the number of pages that can be printed with one particular cartridge.
For example, assume that average home user prints 150 black pages per month using a black cartridge that yields 200 pages and costs $28. The monthly "cost of ownership" is
(150 pages) x ($28) = $21
      200 pages

Also look at the printer ink alternatives; besides the original manufacturer's cartridges (OEMs), you may have the selection of remanufactured cartridges, compatible ink cartridges, and ink refill kits.

  • Product Description for Canon S300 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    For printing standard office documents and glossy family craft projects, the Canon S300 printer delivers outstanding quality and value. Sized at just 10 by 15 inches, it was thoughtfully designed for comfortable use even in cramped home offices. (In this case, good things definitely come in small packages.)

    Color prints are churned out at up to 7.5 color pages per minute, with a color-saturated 2,400 x 1,200 dpi resolution. Canon's bubble-jet technology supplies 128 nozzles for each color, all of which originate from the same compact cartridge. Monochrome print jobs are processed at up to 11 pages per minute, and receive a letter-perfect 600 x 600 dpi resolution.

    The S300 can produce exceptional, photo-quality prints, including edge-to-edge, 4-by-6-inch photos. Paper-handling possibilities include envelopes, transparencies, glossy photo sheets, and banners, as well as plain paper in letter and legal sizes. The printer connects to your system via a single USB cable, making installation simple and keeping your desk free of clutter.

    PhotoRecord image processing software is included, along with drivers for both Windows and Macintosh systems. Canon provides a one-year, limited warranty with instant exchange service available as an option.

    The S300 Color Bubble Jet Printer is designed for quickly and brilliantly printing the projects that families create most, from super-sharp letters and reports to incredible greeting cards and posters. Plus, thanks to Canon's expertise in image reproduction, it gives you the ability to print spectacular color photos. With the included photo software, high-intensity ink, and Canon's exclusive advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology, you can print picture-perfect photos that last for many years.

    Speed through projects at up to 11 ppm in black and up to 7.5 ppm in color. And when printing in color, you will get a remarkable 2,400 x 1,200 dpi--38 percent greater than 2,880 x 720 dpi printers. That's high-performance printing, so you can output projects with ease and confidence.

    Canon's leading image technology ensures exceptional photo-printing performance. Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology precisely applies microscopic ink droplets, resulting in reduced grain, richer tonality, greater contrast, and higher resolution. Canon's high optical density ink produces brighter, more vivid colors and crisp, laser-quality black. Plus, the included PhotoRecord software enables you to print edge-to-edge, 4-by-6-inch photos.

    PC WORLD.com Editors' review:

    WHAT'S HOT: Canon priced the S300 at only $99, yet gave it enough oomph to churn out text at a speedy 5.1 ppm and graphics at 0.8 ppm. And despite the low buy-in, ink costs only 2.3 cents per page of black and 12.1 cents per color page. We also liked the S300's text output quality, which was clean throughout and preserved serifs and other fine details.
    WHAT'S NOT: Photo output looked good, although slightly washed out with some feathering on the edges. However, the S300 did not fare particularly well on our test file of narrow lines, and it rendered rough-looking, streaked gray-scale graphics with little detail. The unit also makes a racket, even when idle.
    WHAT ELSE: Canon provides an excellent online manual with wizards. This printer offers only a USB connector--you won't find serial or parallel connectors. The software CD-ROM includes PhotoRecord digital photo album software.
    UPSHOT: The S300's low purchase price plus its reasonable ink costs equal a great value for this all-purpose printer.
