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.

    The Canon i9900 photo printer provides a high-quality, versatile solution for photo enthusiasts and low-volume photo professionals. This low-profile, quiet machine offers wide format printing (up to 13 by 19 inches) as well as fast 4-by-6-inch borderless prints in as little as 38 seconds. For truly professional-looking results, the printer also supports resolutions up to 4,800 x 1,200 dpi.

    The i9900 utilizes an eight-color, separate ink tank color system to increase the range of color reproduction. This multi-tank technology features low-ink sensors so you won't run dry in the middle of a print and saves you money by letting you replace only the color that has run out. The i9900 offers a built-in sheet feeder that's able to handle up to 100 sheets of 17 lb. stock, 10 envelopes, 30 transparency sheets, or a full range of specialty papers. It even comes with a sample package of 4-by-6-inch Photo Paper Pro.

    Offering direct connection to Bubble Jet Direct or PictBridge-compatible digital cameras or DV camcorders, the i9900 also features fast USB 2.0 and FireWire interfaces (FireWire compatible with Mac OS only) for convenient peripheral connection. It comes with a comprehensive package of image editing software, including Easy-PhotoPrint Plus, Easy-WebPrint, ZoomBrowser EX, PhotoRecord, ImageBrowser, and PhotoStitch. (See tech specs for system requirements.) The unit is backed by a one year warranty on parts and labor.

    What's in the Box

    Bigger just got better. The i9900 Photo Printer is a high-end large format machine whose remarkable output can rival that of a professional processing lab. It's capable of producing edge-to-edge true borderless prints, from 4-by-6 up to a breathtaking 13-by-19-inch size, with the look and feel of a traditional photograph. Think of it: you can take a digital picture, set your printing parameters, and be holding an amazing 13-by-19-inch poster-size borderless print in under 3 minutes. For true printing freedom you can even connect a Bubble Jet Direct or PictBridge-compatible digital camera or DV camcorder to the i9900 printer's conveniently located Direct Print Port and print photos—without a computer.

    Higher resolution—it's all in the details. The i9900 Photo Printer features advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology, which combines revolutionary techniques in ink droplet size and quality with accurate ink application and composition, for spectacular photo results. Its newly developed, high-density print head contains an unmatched 6,144 precisely machined nozzles, delivering approximately 11 million droplets per square inch. Providing the exceptional quality demanded by serious photographers, the i9900 Photo Printer achieves a resolution of up to 4,800 x 2,400 dpi and delivers ultra-fine 2 picoliter droplets that reveal precise details in photographs that many other large-format printers just can't duplicate.

    The quality of your photos will truly impress family and friends, while the speed at which they print will truly impress you. Edge-to-edge borderless 4-by-6-inch photos can be produced in about 38 seconds, or print your 8.5-by-11-inch photo enlargements in about 50 seconds. (See tech specs for details about speed and resolution.) The i9900's performance is further advanced with the addition of both a FireWire and USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface (FireWire compatible with Mac OS only) for the fastest photo transfers possible.

    An 8-color ink system broadens your spectrum. The i9900 Photo Printer features the 8-color ChromaPLUS ink system designed to extend your color reproduction range significantly and reproduce colors that before now could only be printed professionally. The addition of red and green ink tanks will make it possible to print richer images with improved brilliancy and more true-to-life colors. The Canon Think Tank System featuring individual ink tanks combined with an intelligent ink management system lets you replace only the color that runs out, rather than an entire multi-ink cartridge containing unused ink, reducing printing costs. A unique low-ink sensor alerts you when ink levels are low, so you can drop in a new tank and avoid running out of ink unexpectedly.

    PC WORLD.com Editors' review:

    Canon's BJC-4400 isn't as flashy and doesn't print as nicely as the company's BJC-5000, but it prints at similar speeds and has some of the same useful features--for $70 less. One of the 4400's unique features is an oversize black cartridge, which prints long text documents about twice as fast as the typical set of ink cartridges and reduces the chances of running dry in the middle of a job, much like the 5000's mix-and-match cartridge scheme. And as with the 5000, you can transform the 4400 into a scanner by pulling out the printhead and snapping in Canon's $99 IS-22 scanhead.

    Home users who are pressed for space will appreciate the Canon BJC-4400's size, which is more compact than the BJC-5000's. Too bad about the 4400's print quality. The printer is perfectly fine for personal letters, but you wouldn't want to print your résumé on it. Normal-size text has rough edges, and larger fonts are distorted. Although graphics look somewhat better, revealing good detail, their colors lack subtlety.

    Photograph? Bubble Jet Print? With Canon's Color Bubble Jet printer, the BJC-7000, you really have difficulty telling them apart. Quality so high, using technology so advanced, means that all your documents will be superbly printed onto any media from everyday plain paper to Canon's Glossy Photo Paper. The BJC-7000 uses advanced Plain Paper Optimized Printing to produce high quality results on plain paper. It can also be used to print on a wide variety of other types of display and photographic media. The special dye-based inks in the resident black and color cartridges are water-fast, smudge proof and fade resistant; crisp black text and vibrant colors can all be printed on the same page. Up to 130 sheets of paper can be loaded at a time into the printer's automatic sheet feeder, saving time and enhancing productivity. Film, card and other print media can be loaded into the machine via a manual feeder, which accepts any weight of material up to 550 gsm that's heavier than most bubblejet printers.

    This printer model is not being manufactured by Canon any more


    PC WORLD.com Editors' review:

    Despite being $50 more than the next most expensive printer on the chart, this top-of-the-line personal ink jet makes its Top 10 debut this month thanks to fine output and top-notch documentation.

    As Canon's high-end personal printer, the BJC-7000 comes with some extra features its siblings, the BJC-250 and BJC-4300, don't. It's capable of a higher maximum resolution (1200 by 600 dpi). It also includes a case for the resting ink cartridge, which attaches handily to the back of the printer. Besides having preconfigured settings for photos, graphics, and transparencies like the other Canon printers', the BJC-7000's driver gives users control over cyan, magenta, yellow, and black settings, plus brightness and intensity. We liked the flexibility but found the labyrinthine interface--full of tabs, buttons, and more tabs--confusing.

    An intriguing difference is the 7000's black-cartridge design. Intended to produce coated-paper results on plain paper, the cartridge has an extra tank full of a clear sealant that preps the paper before the ink sprays. This potential selling point --most ink jets do poorly on plain paper--is not quite successful. The BJC-7000's black text on plain paper looks better than most ink jets', but color and gray scales show little improvement over normal ink jets'--they're still a bit faded and blurry. On coated ink jet paper, however, the BJC-7000 renders flesh tones, earth tones, and other difficult colors with subtlety. It even does okay with narrow lines, while other printers improve little on ink jet paper.
    The BJC-7000 includes the same nice CD-ROM bundle as other Canons. Its manual offers strong troubleshooting. But changing ink cartridges can be tricky, and the unit is loud, even when idle. Also, its output tray is a floppy plastic plate that needs to rest on a desk.

    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 S900 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    With a combination of speed, precision, and brilliant color, the Canon S900 brings professional-quality printing to home desktops. Print speeds as low as 37 seconds for a border-free, 4-by-6-inch print and about a minute for an 8-by-10-inch print are suitably impressive, while a system of six ink tanks (one of each is included in the box) allows you to economically replace just the colors you use most, cutting back on both cost and waste.

    The bubble-jet-style print head is equipped with 3,072 nozzles, which use Canon's Microfine Droplet technology to guarantee crisp, accurate detail and rich colors. With a resolution of 2,400 x 1,200 dpi and 49 levels of gradation, your photos will come out looking clean, bright, and true to life. The border-free printer settings for 4-by-6-inch stock result in professional-looking, edge-to-edge photos you can be proud of. A large number of paper types and sizes are easily accommodated, including transparencies, fabric transfers, photo cards, banners, envelopes, letter, legal, A4, A5, and more. The S900's paper tray can hold up to 100 sheets of 17-lb. paper.

    Installation is easy thanks to a convenient USB port, while a software bundle--including appropriate drivers, a user's guide, PhotoRecord (PC), ImageBrowser (Mac), ZoomBrowser (PC), and PhotoStitch (PC/Mac)--helps you get the most out of your printer. A power cable and sample paper pack is also included. Weighing about 13 pounds, the S900 has a modest footprint, measuring just 17.4 by 12.8 inches. Canon provides a one-year warranty, with Instant Exchange service, covering parts and service.

    The S900 Photo Printer from Canon delivers amazing quality at unheard-of speeds, right out of the box. Push the print button and, in just 37 seconds, you'll have a spectacular 4-by-6-inch borderless print that rivals those you get from a professional photo lab. In approximately 60 seconds, you can produce incredible 8.5-by-11-inch photo prints just as easily. When printed on Canon Photo Paper Pro, photos retain their brilliance and vibrancy for 25 years.

    Technological innovation makes the S900 photo printer one of the highest-performing photo printers available. The sophisticated printhead features 3,072 nozzles--double that of previous models in this range--making it possible to print faster and with greater detail. Plus, Canon's advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology combines cutting-edge achievements in ink-droplet size, accurate ink application, consistent droplet quality, and ink composition. The result is superior 2,400 x 1,200 dpi resolution, up to 49 gradation levels, reduced graininess, and breathtaking detail and color reproduction.

    The S900 Photo Printer features the Canon Think Tank System. Six ink tanks, one for each color, make it easy to replace just the color that runs out, rather than the entire cartridge. Plus, a unique optical low-ink sensor warns you with an onscreen message when an ink tank is low, giving you plenty of time to replace the tank before it runs out.
    The S900 offers convenient USB connectivity and is compatible with most current Windows versions, as well as Mac OS 8.6 and above. It comes with everything you'll need to get set up and started, including a CD-ROM containing printer drivers, electronic product registration, and software. Canon backs the S900 with a one-year limited warranty with InstantExchange program. The S900 is Energy Star compliant.

    MSRP for Canon S900: $399.00
    Street Price: $45.00 - $100.00


    PC WORLD.com Editors' review:
    The Canon S900 is a conventional ink jet which is with two control panel buttons and one LED status light. It has the maximum resolution of 2,400 by 1,200 dpi.

    A combination of the fastest photo-printing speed, nearly top quality, and midrange price makes the S900 our definite Editors' Choice. This normal-width version of the wide-carriage Canon S9000 doesn't have fancy (or confusing) front-panel controls or direct-printing media slots. The S900 looks like a regular ink jet printer, but when you print on high-quality photo paper the output meets or exceeds the output of any other company's photo printers.

    The S900 was easily the fastest photo printer on our photo-quality printing performance tests.

  • Product Description for Canon CP 300 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    It's the coolest party toy since the Polaroid: the new Canon CP-300 Photo Printer. Connect it directly to your Powershot-series Canon or other PictBridge-supporting digital camera, and you'll be printing snapshots and stickers faster than you can say "cheese." PictBridge is an industry standard that lets you print images by directly connecting your digital camera to your printer, regardless of the brand or model, without using a computer.

    This printer can connect directly to select digital cameras. The included USB cable adapter also lets you connect the CP-300 to your camera or your computer for access to images stored there.

    Each wee image features 256-level color and 300 dpi resolution; the dye-sublimation process provides results similar to traditional photos, with rich detail and accurate skin tones. Supported papers include a variety of sizes, as well as bordered and borderless options. Whatever you choose, your images print in seconds--about 85 seconds for a postcard size, 40 for tiny labels or credit card size, when printing directly from Canon PowerShot cameras.

    For added portability, the CP-300 includes a rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack and supports an optional car battery adapter (model CBA-CP100). Canon provides a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

    What's in the Box:
    Card Photo Printer CP-300 body, paper cassettes (4-by-6-inch and credit card size), ink cassette, Ni-MH battery, compact power adapter, CD-ROM driver, trial standard paper (4-by-6-inch size)

    Connect your Card Photo Printer CP-300 to a select Canon digital camera or PictBridge supported digital camera, then print straight from your camera. No need to touch your computer! Select your prints right on your camera's LCD. Choose your print size: approximately 4-by-6-inch or credit card size. Do borders or go borderless. Even print labels. It's up to you. Plus, the CP-300 includes a rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack for the ultimate in portable convenience.

    The Card Photo Printer CP-300 supports PictBridge, a new print standard. This standard enables any digital camera that supports PictBridge to connect and print to any PictBridge compliant printer. Plus, the CP-300 lets you plug in a USB computer general purpose cable so you can output images stored on your hard drive. Printer drivers and Canon software are included with the printers, so you have the option to print from your PC or Mac.

    With the CP-300, you can produce prints that match the appearance and long-life of images produced by traditional film processes. Engineered for superior picture quality, this printer has a resolution of 300-dpi and 256 levels of color, so you can create richly detailed prints from 2.0-megapixel or greater cameras. Dye-sublimation technology controls the ink flow to deliver a full range of realistic tones and shadings, so color is natural and true-to-life. For durability, the CP-300 adds a transparent, protective overcoating to each print that shields it from the damaging effects of sunlight and humidity.

    Create the prints you want in the sizes and styles that express your creativity. The largest print is the 4-by-6-inch postcard. Great for saving in albums or mailing off to friends and family, the CP-300 lets you create postcards with or without borders in just 85 seconds. (Print times are based on printing directly from Canon PowerShot digital cameras.)

    Or chose credit-card size prints or labels, or mini labels. Wallet-sized credit card prints are ideal for sharing and showing. Print them with or without borders in about 40 seconds. Plus, credit card size labels, with their convenient adhesive backing, are ideal for attaching to letters, cards or anything else you can dream up. Also available are 8-piece mini labels--an impressive addition to resumes, school work, or notes to grandma. Mini labels give you eight identical images on a single credit card sized print.

    MSRP for Canon CP 300: $279.99
    Street Price: $239.00 - $242.00


    CNET.com Editors' rating: 7.5 Good
    User rating: 100% good, 0% bad
    The good: Decent-quality photo prints; fast; includes a battery; stylish, compact design; Mac and PC compatible.
    The bad: Costly; starter ink ribbon makes only five prints; can't print directly from digital media.
    The bottom line: With its own battery for on-the-go printing, this tiny-but-expensive portable photo printer is still a good value.

  • Product Description for Canon CP 200 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    It's the coolest party toy since the Polaroid: the new Canon CP-200 Photo Printer. Connect it directly to your Powershot-series Canon or other PictBridge-supporting digital camera, and you'll be printing snapshots and stickers faster than you can say "cheese." PictBridge is an industry standard that lets you print images by directly connecting your compatible digital camera to your printer, regardless of the brand or model, without using a computer. The included USB cable adapter also lets you connect the CP-200 to your camera or your computer for access to images stored there.

    This printer can connect directly to select digital cameras. Each wee image features 256-level color and 300 dpi resolution; the dye-sublimation process provides results similar to traditional photos, with rich detail and accurate skin tones. Supported papers include a variety of sizes, as well as bordered and borderless options. Whatever you choose, your images print in seconds--about 85 seconds for a postcard size, 40 for tiny labels or credit card size, when printing directly from Canon PowerShot cameras.

    For added portability, the CP-200 supports an optional car battery adapter (model CBA-CP100). Canon provides a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

    What's in the Box:
    Card Photo Printer CP-200 body, paper cassette (4-by-6-inch size), ink cassette, compact power adapter, CD-ROM driver, trial standard paper (4-by-6-inch size)

    Connect your Card Photo Printer CP-200 to a select Canon digital camera or PictBridge supported digital camera, then print straight from your camera. No need to touch your computer! Select your prints right on your camera's LCD. Choose your print size: approximately 4-by-6-inch or credit card size. Do borders or go borderless. Even print labels. It's up to you.

    The Card Photo Printer CP-200 supports PictBridge, a new print standard. This standard enables any digital camera that supports PictBridge to connect and print to any PictBridge compliant printer. Plus, the CP-200 lets you plug in a USB computer general purpose cable so you can output images stored on your hard drive. Printer drivers and Canon software are included with the printers, so you have the option to print from your PC or Mac.

    With the CP-200, you can produce prints that match the appearance and long-life of images produced by traditional film processes. Engineered for superior picture quality, this printer has a resolution of 300-dpi and 256 levels of color, so you can create richly detailed prints from 2.0-megapixel or greater cameras. Dye-sublimation technology controls the ink flow to deliver a full range of realistic tones and shadings, so color is natural and true-to-life. For durability, the CP-200 adds a transparent, protective overcoating to each print that shields it from the damaging effects of sunlight and humidity.

    Create the prints you want in the sizes and styles that express your creativity. The largest print is the 4-by-6-inch postcard. Great for saving in albums or mailing off to friends and family, the CP-200 lets you create postcards with or without borders in just 85 seconds. (Print times are based on printing directly from Canon PowerShot digital cameras.)

    Or chose credit-card size prints or labels, or mini labels (with optional credit-card size tray). Wallet-sized credit card prints are ideal for sharing and showing. Print them with or without borders in about 40 seconds. Plus, credit card size labels, with their convenient adhesive backing, are ideal for attaching to letters, cards or anything else you can dream up. Also available are 8-piece mini labels--an impressive addition to resumes, school work, or notes to grandma. Mini labels give you eight identical images on a single credit card sized print.

    Street Price: $75.00 - $227.00


    CNET.com Editors' rating: 7.5 Good
    User rating: 100% good, 0% bad
    The good: Decent-quality photo prints; fast; includes a battery; stylish, compact design; Mac and PC compatible.
    The bad: Costly; starter ink ribbon makes only five prints; can't print directly from digital media.
    The bottom line: With its own battery for on-the-go printing, this tiny-but-expensive portable photo printer is still a good value.

    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 i250 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    The Canon i250 Color Bubble Jet Printer delivers crisp text, no-hassle printing and high-quality photos from the Web--all at an exceptional value. You've heard "no hassle" in regard to web printing, but Canon's specially developed Easy Webprint software makes it a reality. Functioning as a toolbar in Microsoft IE, it automatically scales and smoothes pages to fit your paper properly, and allows you to format multiple pages as a single, multi-column page.

    Whether you're printing from the web or your own system, your documents, letters and reports will have clean, truly black text thanks to rich pigment-based inks; with speeds up to 12 pages per minute, the i250 handily keeps pace with the needs of your home office or family. When it comes to printing photos, you may decide that professional processing is a thing of the past-a maximum resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 dpi and MicroFine Droplet Technology combine for virtually grain-free images ready for framing or sending to friends in less than two minutes. Color images print at up to 9 pages per minute.

    The i250 printer's compact design fits nicely into limited work spaces; with a weight of just 3.75 lbs, you'll hardly know it's there. A full software package is included to make photo printing easy manageable, and the two ink cartridges are included in the box. USB connectivity means just one cord is necessary, but you'll need to supply it yourself. Canon provides a one-year warranty with Instant Exchange service.


    Street Price: $69.85


    PC WORLD.com Editors' review:

    Canon i250 has the MicroFine Droplet print engines that are capable of 4,800- by 1,200-dpi color output. Canon i250 uses one black and one tricolor ink cartridge—and a separate printhead. It has only a USB interface, and neither comes with a cable. Canon i250 has well-illustrated setup guide. It comes with Easy PhotoPrint software for printing a single photo or a batch, and Easy-WebPrint, which formats Web pages for printing.

    Canon i250 printer has power switches conveniently located on its front panels, as well as a second button that doubles as Cancel or Resume, depending on the context. The print driver is extensive, with all the familiar extras, including poster, n-up, manual duplex, watermark, and background printing. A wizard helps you choose which features to use in order to get the results you want.

    Not all the shared features are in the plus column, however. Canon i250 case feel flimsy, and paper feeds from a stack in the back, with a tendency to skew at times. There's no way to feed a single envelope without removing the paper stack and adjusting the feed guides.

    The installation process includes a head alignment procedure, but instead of having the printer automatically adjust on its own, you must make judgments based on the printout. Also, the on-screen prompts for the alignment process are certain to confuse the novice. One window ends with the question "Do you want to make any adjustments?" The choices offered are OK and Cancel. OK causes the process to proceed. A better prompt might be "Make any adjustments now and then choose OK to proceed."

    Alignment is excellent; color gradients are smooth with no obvious banding; and colors are bright and well saturated. Photo prints are surprisingly good for this printer in this price range. The level of detail in it dark shadows and highlights is impressive. The printer driver also has an automatic color adjustment feature (it's off by default), which does an excellent job of rebalancing an image that might be over- or underexposed.

    Canon i250 printer posted scores in the middle of the pack on our tests, although it stood out on the simpler document tests. But in general, HP has created much faster printers this year. Both Canons scored extremely well in the total cost of ownership calculations, saving $100 to $150 over most competitors in this category for the first year.

    Canon i250 printer produces excellent quality output, making it great bargain.

    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

    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.

    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.

    Street Price: $86.00


    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.

  • Product Description for Pixma IP90 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    Rugged, powerful and portable, the Canon PIXMA iP90 Photo Printer delivers exceptional performance at home or on the road. This compact printer can produce up to 16 ppm in black and up to 12 ppm in color, while achieving a resolution of up to 4,800 x 1,200 color dpi. Canon full-photolithography inkjet nozzle engineering uses a high-performance 1,088-nozzle print head that ejects precise and consistent droplets as small as two picoliters with remarkable accuracy. Your results: impressive resolution and dramatic detail on graphics and photos, wherever you're printing from.

    In a hotel room or a home office, the iP90 printer goes practically anywhere, yielding superb output on all your projects. Reports and memos will look clean and professional with bold, crisp text. Using the included Canon Easy-WebPrint Windows software, Web pages are automatically formatted, so they'll print properly with full color and without trimming off the right-hand margin. You can also produce 4-by-6, 5-by-7 and 8.5-by-11-inch borderless prints, with stunning edge-to-edge quality and razor-sharp detail. In only about 51 seconds you can print a 4-by-6-inch photo with the look and feel of a traditional photograph. And for convenience, you can connect any PictBridge compatible digital camera or DV camcorder directly to the iP90 printer and print photos--no PC required!

    Easy-PhotoPrint v3.0
    While most photo-editing software applications will brighten the entire image, Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 accurately detects the subject's face and adjusts the skin to the optimum tone. Brighten dark faces caused by bright backgrounds. Choose from one-click automatic to correct the entire image all at once, or manual to correct just a selected area.

    Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 also lets you select and print any image on your PC, perfectly trim images, correct images using lab-quality retouching features, correct red-eye, smooth facial lines and skin tone, sharpen faces, remove blemishes, and print in a variety of sizes and layouts.

    Photo Optimizer PRO
    Photo Optimizer PRO does not simply adjust image data; it also makes adjustments in the printer driver. It assesses color balance, vividness, and brightness based on a histogram analysis of image data (raw image), and then makes ideal adjustments within the three-dimensional color space of the entire image, also making optimum use of the image's characteristics. Photo Optimizer PRO utilizes the functions of Bubble Jet printers to reproduce clear colors. Making multi-adjustments to a variety of images requires finetuning, because processes that are suitable for certain adjustments may be detrimental to other adjustments.

    Also, each image requires a different balance of adjustments. For these reasons, Canon has spent many years accumulating enormous volumes of data on what it found are the colors considered by most people to be the most beautiful. Based on these data, Canon has undertaken analyses of a huge number of images and devised an algorithm that allows well-balanced adjustments to be made for every single image pattern, even those with complex compositions and hues.

    Canon Smart Ink Features
    If you're on-the-go and low on ink the iP90 printer's "Ink Usage Control" setting enables you to produce approximately 1.5 times more pages without lowering print quality. Plus, if you run out of black ink, just choose the "Use Composite Black" option and the iP90 printer continues to print black using a composite of color inks in the "Ink Usage Control" setting. These features are a convenient safety net when you don't have extra ink on hand.

    Versatile, Wireless Printing
    The iP90 printer offers both IrDA compatibility and an optional Bluetooth interface enabling you to print wirelessly from a PC, PDA or mobile phone. For maximum portability, an optional Canon car adapter and rechargeable battery kit provide power on the go.

    What's in the Box
    Canon iP90 photo printer, iP90 printhead, BCI-15 black ink tank, BCI-16 color ink tank, power cord, universal AC adapter, setup software and user's guide CD-ROM, documentation kit; USB cable not included

    MSRP for Pixma IP90: $249.99
    Street Price: $209.00 - $281.00


    PC WORLD.com Editors' review:

    Canon's $250 Pixma IP90 portable photo printer offers good prints for mobile users. The 4-pound unit prints better and faster than its predecessor, the Canon I80, and even competes with full-size rivals.

    The PC World Test Center clocked the IP90 printing text at 6.3 pages per minute--faster than many desktop inkjet printers and 10 percent quicker than the I80. Color graphics came at a relatively slow 1.4 ppm, but our test photo printed in a reasonable 2 minutes, 33 seconds, nearly a minute faster than the I80.

    In our quality tests, the IP90 produced text documents full of finely formed characters. The print was dark and very readable, although on several occasions we noticed slightly misaligned characters. There was also a moderate amount of banding in our plain-paper line art and color graphics samples, but overall the clarity of the prints impressed us.

    On photo paper, color and gray-scale images looked a little light; and compared with prints from full-size inkjets, the images lacked some contrast, which made them look slightly blurry. That said, the unit produced very crisp photos for a portable printer.

    The IP90 comes equipped with a 7-ounce universal power adapter, but to get the most on your travels, you'll have to spring for the optional $100 battery and charging kit. A car power adapter costs $90.

    The IP90 offers plenty of connectivity options but lacks the memory card slots found on some portable printers. In addition to a USB port, there's a built-in infrared port (useful with cell-phone cameras), a PictBridge port for compatible cameras, and an $80 Bluetooth option.

    The IP90 represents a solid traveling companion for anyone who finds they often need to print on the go.

    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 S9000 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    With a combination of speed, precision, and brilliant color, the Canon S9000 brings professional-quality printing to home desktops. Enjoy print speeds as low as 37 seconds for a 4-by-6-inch border-free photo and about a minute for an 8-by-10.

    A system of six ink tanks allows you to replace only the colors you need, cutting back on both cost and waste. The bubble-jet-style print head is equipped with 3,072 nozzles, which use Canon's Microfine Droplet technology to guarantee crisp, accurate detail and rich colors. With a resolution of 2,400 x 1,200 dpi and 49 levels of gradation, your photos will come out looking clean, bright, and true-to-life.

    The border-free mode supports 4-by-6-, 8-by-10-, and 8.5-by-11-inch prints, resulting in professional-looking edge-to-edge photos you can be proud of. A large number of paper types and sizes are easily accommodated, including transparencies, fabric transfers, photo cards, banners, envelopes, letter, legal, A4, A5, and others, making this printer suitable for a wide range of professional and home applications. The input paper tray can hold 100 sheets of 17-lb. paper at a time.

    Weighing about 18 pounds with a footprint of 22.5 by 13.1 inches, the printer is compact and easy to move. The software bundle includes appropriate drivers, a user's guide, PhotoRecord (PC), ImageBrowser (Mac), ZoomBrowser (PC), and PhotoStitch (PC/Mac). Installation is easy with a convenient USB port. A power cable and sample paper pack are also included. Canon provides a one-year warranty, with Instant Exchange, covering parts and service.

    It's the wide-format photo printer you've been waiting for--precision equipment for your desktop that enables you to print remarkable photos that rival those from a professional lab. From 4-by-6-inch snapshots to 13-by-19-inch posters, the S9000 prints photos at incredible speeds and with the ability to retain their brilliance and vibrancy for 25 years when they're printed on Canon Photo Paper Pro. The S9000 Photo Printer from Canon features out-of-the-box performance for professional photographers and photo enthusiasts that makes photo printing incredibly fast and easy.

    The S9000 Photo Printer features a sophisticated printhead with 3,072 nozzles for faster printing and much greater detail. Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology combines cutting-edge achievements in ink-droplet size, accurate ink application, consistent droplet quality, and ink composition. The result is spectacular 2,400 x 1,200 dpi print resolution, 49 gradation levels, reduced graininess, and breathtaking detail and color reproduction. Plus, Canon gives you the ability to print borderless 4-by-6-inch and 8.5-by-11-inch photos, just as a photo lab does.

    The S9000 Photo Printer features the Canon Think Tank System. Six ink tanks, one for each color, make it easy to replace just the color that runs out, rather than the entire cartridge. Plus, a unique optical low-ink sensor warns you with an onscreen message when an ink tank is low, giving you plenty of time to replace the tank before it runs out.

    The S9000 offers convenient USB hookup and is compatible with most current Windows versions as well as Mac OS 8.6 and above. It is Energy Star compliant and comes with a one-year limited warranty and InstantExchange program.

    MSRP for Canon S9000: $499.00
    Street Price: $380.00 - $531.00


    PC MAGAZINE.com Editors' review:

    The Canon S9000 Color Bubble Jet Printer is conventional ink jet, which is with two control panel buttons and one LED status light. It has the maximum resolution of 2,400 by 1,200 dpi.

    This normal-width version of the wide-carriage Canon S9000 doesn't have fancy (or confusing) front-panel controls or direct-printing media slots.

    The S9000 trailed by only 5 seconds overall, but it was almost three times as fast as the closest non-Canon printer, the Epson Stylus Photo 820. An affordable price, top speed, and great quality—what more do you want?

    If you need the same quality and nearly identical class-leading speed but want to print on larger stock, choose the Canon S9000. The S9000 lets you print on 13- by 19-inch media. You won't find memory card slots, digital camera ports, or an LCD preview screen, but the S9000 is an easy-to-use photo printer that does its job well.

With its small size and easy connectivity, the Selphy DS700 can even go with you when you visit family and friends. It's the new way to view, print, and share your photos.

    PC MAGAZINE.com Editors' review:

    By most measures, the Canon Selphy DS700 Compact Photo Printer ($199.99 direct) is a typical ink jet-based dedicated photo printer, with the ability to print from PictBridge cameras, memory cards, and a PC. Its claim to fame is that instead of offering a built-in LCD, it can plug into a TV to let you preview your photos and work through the menus at large size. It even comes with a remote control, so you can give the commands from your easy chair.

    Connecting to a TV is straightforward. Most sets include a video-in jack for a standard RCA plug, and the DS700 comes with the appropriate cable. Plug it in, pop in a memory card, set the TV to view the input, and go. Unfortunately, the menus have few choices. You can't crop, remove red-eye, adjust brightness, or otherwise edit the photos. You're pretty much limited to viewing and printing.

    More troublesome is that when you're not connected to a TV, your only choice for printing from memory cards is to print everything on the card. Ideally, we'd like to print an index sheet and then choose which photos to print.

    As with most dedicated photo printers, maximum picture size is 4 by 6. Print speed is typical. We timed it at 1 minute 21 seconds to 1:39 for printing from a computer via USB, and roughly the same speeds for printing from a memory card or a Canon PowerShot S60 camera. Output quality is also typical, with a rating at the high end of very good. It misses an excellent rating primarily because of lost detail in light areas and a slight raggedness in straight lines like the spokes of a bicycle wheel. One of its strongest points is that after drying for 24 hours, the output is essentially waterproof and smudge-proof.

    Unfortunately, running costs are high. Canon claims 36 cents per print, based on 75 photos for the printer's single ink cartridge. In our tests, however, the cartridge lasted for only 38 prints, which would effectively double the cost per print. Consider the DS700 an acceptable choice, but we'd rather skip the TV connection and choose the Epson PictureMate, which has slower performance, but offers excellent quality, equally waterproof and smudge proof output, and a 29-cent cost per print.

    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.

It's ideal for printing colorful borderless photos directly from your desktop, as it requires no special papers to achieve refined color and detail. Plus, with both USB and parallel ports, it's a suitable companion for either your Mac or PC.

    The S820 uses a six-color printing process with individual ink tanks (256 x 6 nozzles) to reduce waste. Just drop in the single color cartridge you need, without having to change the others. The inks are formulated to provide lightfast images lasting up to 25 years.

    Print crisp clean black and color prints at 2,400 x 1,200 dpi on a wide variety of media, including letter size, legal size, A4, A5, photo cards, No. 10 or European envelopes and banner paper. Canon claims you can print an 8-by-10-inch photo on plain paper in under two minutes and a 4-by-6 in about one minute, both in photo quality.

    The unit is designed for compactness and quiet running for users seeking high-quality photo printing. Software includes the printer drivers and a BJ Solution Disk CD-ROM. The latter includes PhotoRecord for Windows, ImageBrowser for Mac, and PhotoStitch for both Windows and Mac. Canon offers a one-year limited warranty on parts and labor.

    Imagine: brilliant 4-by-6-inch borderless photos in about 60 seconds, and 8.5-by-11-inch photos in approximately two minutes, all with the ability to retain their vibrancy and color for 25 years, and all right from your desktop. The S820 Photo Printer produces photo prints of silver-halide quality, thanks to a high-performance six-color ink system. It combines standard cyan, magenta, and yellow ink tanks with one-sixth density photo cyan, photo magenta, and black ink tanks in one printhead--making 2,400 x 1,200 dpi photo-quality printing available. Plus, Canon's advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology combines cutting-edge achievements in ink-droplet size, accurate ink application, consistent droplet quality, and ink composition. The result is spectacular print resolution, up to 49 gradation levels, dramatically reduced graininess, and breathtaking detail and color reproduction.

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

    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    WHAT'S HOT: The S800 looks just like an ordinary ink jet, but this photo printer packs two extra ink tanks (dilute shades of cyan and magenta) to help it capture subtle lighting and transitions. We found it indeed produces photos with great detail and subtle, rich colors and textures. Despite the use of six inks instead of four, the S800 incurs reasonable ink costs; based on Canon's estimated yield for an ink tank, a page of text costs only 1.9 cents and a page of color graphics runs 12.8 cents. When we retested the S800 using a USB interface, it made a threefold jump in graphics performance to a reasonable 0.6 pages per minute.
    WHAT'S NOT: With a text speed of 2.4 ppm, the S800 is pokier than most of the other ink jet printers we've tested. Except for color graphics, the S800's output quality in our tests was inferior to that of the less-expensive S600. Text looked grayish and rough in places, narrow parallel lines overlapped, and color graphics looked slightly hazy with marginal detail.
    WHAT ELSE: Canon provides graphics-oriented software with the S800, including PhotoStitch, for combining photos into panoramic shots, and PhotoRecord, for archiving photos. The S800 includes a thorough online manual, but no printed manual. The S800's Background feature lets you simulate stationery or other preprinted paper by placing the contents of an external document behind the document you're printing. You can also lighten the background image without altering the original file.
    UPSHOT: Good photo quality and extra features make the S800 a suitable photo printer, but slow text-printing speeds and not-so-great text and graphics quality mean it falls short as an office printer.

    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 MP780 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    The feature-rich Canon PIXMA MP780 Photo All-In-One delivers the ultimate combination of speed and quality to your home-office projects. It can print or copy up to 25 ppm in black and up to 17 ppm in color, and a 4-by-6-inch borderless photo takes about 36 seconds (1). You'll achieve up to Super G3 fax speed in color and black-and-white (2), and the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface enables the fastest image transfers and scanning speeds possible today (3).

    To further increase productivity, the integrated 35-page auto document feeder helps you speed through larger copy and fax jobs. A dual paper path allows you to keep a second type of paper ready for printing, an built-in two-sided printing (duplexing) saves time and paper. Plus, electronic sorting automatically collates your copies, so you don't have to.

    Precision Color Distribution Technology
    Unlike other systems, nozzle configuration in Bubble Jet printers is simple, so it is easier to make them smaller and more dense. Using its superior semiconductor manufacturing technology, Canon has succeeded in developing an ultrahigh-precision, multinozzle print head. The problem of color inconsistency has been solved by positioning a mirror-image line of 128 nozzles (600 dpi pitch for each color) at a half-pitch offset from the existing line. This configuration also provides the added advantage of enabling high-resolution printing at 1,200 dpi.

    The unit's ContrastPLUS 5-color ink system--four dye-based inks plus a pigment-based black ink--produces exceptional photos, along with laser-quality text. Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) uses a high-performance 1,856-nozzle print head that ejects precise and consistent droplets as small as 2 picoliters. The results? Outstanding resolution of up to 4,800 x 1,200 color dpi and clear, detailed images (4). When scanning photos, you'll produce brilliant 2,400 dpi scans with intense 48-bit color depth.

    Easy-PhotoPrint v3.0
    While most photo-editing software applications will brighten the entire image, Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 accurately detects the subject's face and adjusts the skin to the optimum tone. Brighten dark faces caused by bright backgrounds. Choose from one-click automatic to correct the entire image all at once, or manual to correct just a selected area.

    Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 also lets you select and print any image on your PC, perfectly trim images, correct images using lab-quality retouching features, correct red-eye, smooth facial lines and skin tone, sharpen faces, remove blemishes, and print in a variety of sizes and layouts.
    This printer can connect directly to select digital cameras.

    The Canon Think Tank System has five individual ink tanks, so you replace only the color that runs out, not an entire cartridge containing unused ink. Plus, a low-ink sensor alerts you when a tank's ink level gets low. The bottom line is higher efficiency and lower printing costs (5).

    With direct photo printing, just connect to any PictBridge compatible digital camera or DV camcorder, and print! It's easy and there's no computer required (6).

    What's in the Box
    PIXMA MP780 Photo All-in-One, PIXMA MP780 print head, BCI-3eBk black, BCI-6Bk black, BCI-6C cyan, BCI-6M magenta, BCI-6Y yellow, power cord, documentation kit, setup CD-ROM

    Notes:

    (1) PPM print speeds are based on the highest speed printer driver mode. CPM copy speed based on fast mode when copying a letter-sized document. Photo print speed based on maximum print speed using Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy. Print/copy speed will vary based on system configuration, software, document complexity, print mode and page coverage.
    (2) The Public Switched Telephone Network currently supports fax modem speeds of 28.8 Kbps or lower, depending on telephone line conditions. Sending and receiving fax machines need to conform to ITU-T V.34 guidelines.
    (3) USB 2.0 Hi-Speed performance requires Windows XP Service Pack 1 or Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 with pre-installed USB 2.0 port.
    (4) Resolution may vary based on printer driver setting. Ink droplets can be placed with a horizontal pitch of 1/4800 inch at minimum.
    (5) Will vary based on composition of images/documents printed.
    (6) For a listing of select Canon digital cameras and DV camcorders featuring Bubble Jet Direct or PictBridge direct printing technology, visit www.usa.canon.com/consumer/directprint. To determine if a non-Canon brand camera or DV camcorder is PictBridge compatible, please consult the manufacturer.

    MSRP for Canon MP780: $299.99
    Street Price: $100.00 - $378.00


    CNET.com Editors' rating: 7.3 Good
    User rating: 97% good, 3% bad
    The good: Prints excellent color graphics and fine-looking photos; scans quickly; uses individual ink tanks; prints double-sided pages; PC and Mac ready; decent paper handling; includes a PictBridge port.
    The bad: So-so text quality on inkjet paper; no built-in camera-card slots or networkability.
    What's it for: Printing great color graphics; making automatic double-sided copies; faxing, copying, and scanning with or without your computer.
    Who's it for: A home office or a small shop that doesn't need a network-ready device but requires good-quality photos.
    Business use: Small and home offices may find the MP780's fax and copy skills most useful, but this is a very capable photo printer, as well.
    Essential extras: Make sure you have a USB cable. A PictBridge-enabled digital camera wouldn't hurt, either.
    The bottom line: The Canon Pixma MP780 is well suited for home offices or businesses small enough to get by without a networked multifunction printer.

Printing is rated at up to 2 pages per minute (ppm), and the copier function can make black-and-white copies at up to 3.1 copies per minute (cpm). Color copies range from three to nine minutes per page, depending on resolution settings.

    Setup is almost as easy as plugging in a traditional ink-jet printer. We connected the C530 to our test PC with a bidirectional parallel cable, inserted the ink cartridges, and plugged in our phone line. The unit offers three RJ-11 phone jacks for line, telephone, and an answering machine. We loaded the ink cartridges by placing the color and black ink tanks into the print head, dropping the head in place, locking it in place with the blue lever, and pressing the cartridge key, which is exposed only while the cover is open.

    This Canon model comes with a number of individual software elements. There are separate printer and fax drivers for outputting jobs from the PC. In addition, the C530 includes Status Monitor, which displays job status and error conditions; Send Fax Manager, which lets you monitor scheduled fax jobs; MultiPass Toolbar, which provides a customized interface to common tasks; and Desktop Manager, a flexible interface that lets you manage your scanned documents and pass them to applications through drag and drop. This multitiered combination of driver software caused us some problems during our testing. On one of our test systems, we got an initialization error every time we printed, even though the print jobs always came out fine.

    Two key strengths of this unit are its stand-alone fax and copy capabilities and its application software bundle. The C530 includes a complete fax control panel with 12 one-touch dial buttons and a number of software programs for a well-rounded small- or home-office solution. The MultiPass C530 isn't really cut out for a high-volume environment, but it is a flexible solution for a home office. --Stephen W. Plain

    Pros:

    • Stand-alone color copying and faxing
    • Copies, scans, faxes, and prints
    • Broad software bundle

    Cons:

    • Slow printing and scanning
    • Limited scanning resolution

    This printer model is not being manufactured by Canon any more


    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    Canon has upped the ante on multifunction devices with its new MultiPass C530.

    This multifunction device -- a combination of printer, scanner, fax machine, and copier -- comes full of capabilities for a low price of $350. And, when it ships in October, a $50 mail-in rebate will bring the street price down to $300.

    The new device's glossiest feature is color copying, which works even when the unit is not connected to a PC or its PC is off. And from the color scanner the unit includes for copying in color, it's a short jump to color faxing -- an emerging standard not yet widely implemented because most office fax machines use a monochrome scanner and laser print engine.

    The MP C530 comes with ChromaFax, the software that enables color faxing; TextBridge Professional, the full-featured version of the popular optical character-recognition program; and Adobe PhotoDeluxe Business Edition, the high-end version of Adobe's photo-editing and document-production package.

    The unit is built around a Canon BJC-4000 series ink jet engine and prints at up to 360 by 720 dots per inch. PC World has reviewed some BCJ-4000 models favorably, and others less so; we haven't studied the MP C530's output.

    Canon specifies the print speed at 5 pages per minute for text and 2 pages for graphics; PC World has not tested the unit's real-world performance, but it is likely to be fairly close to the spec on text and significantly slower on graphics.

    More Than Just Good Looks
    The MP C530 offers much of the fax capability of a stand-alone fax machine, which is more than many multifunction devices provide. For example, it can password-protect incoming faxes, and hold them in memory until the intended recipient arrives to enter the code. The MP C530 can also poll, or call up another fax machine and request specific documents.

    You can set the device to forward faxes, and to delay sending for nighttime phone rates. You can also create cover pages on a PC and upload them to the MP C530's memory, then assign them to outgoing faxes from the device's control panel, which includes a 30-page document feeder.

    One useful feature it lacks, though, is remote-control support. For example, forwarding of your faxes from an office to your hotel requires physical access to the machine. Its memory is also limited to about 40 pages, and unfortunately the paper tray holds only 100 sheets.

    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 BJC 50 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    Need a printer while you're on the road? Take the Canon BJC-50 with you. This battery-powered, compact, color bubble-jet printer makes a great traveling companion for your notebook computer.

    Setting up the BJC-50 was easy. We just followed the Quick Start Guide to install the lithium-ion battery and ink cartridge and to connect the AC adapter and printer cable. We then turned on our computer and followed the Windows setup wizard for setting up a new plug-and-play printer.

    In our test of the BJC-50, we printed several color, black-and-white, draft-quality, and letter-quality samples. The samples included graphics, large and small letters, and a variety of color shades. Draft-quality printing was fast but attractive. Letter quality demonstrated modest improvements in character quality, and the printing was reasonably clear and sharp. Color shades were accurate, if not bold. There was some ink "bleeding" on ordinary uncoated paper, and even a discrete glance betrayed the BJC-50's bubble-jet origins--all as you would expect in a small bubble-jet printer.

    At only 2.1 pounds the BJC-50 is exceptionally lightweight; its case is slim, attractive, and very compact--easy to tuck away in a backpack or briefcase. If you need color printing on the go, the Canon BJC-50 is a solid choice.

    Pros:

    • Compact and lightweight
    • Portable, battery-powered

    Cons:

    • Requires switching between color and black cartridges
    • Single-sheet feed (feeder optional)

    From Winmag
    Most portable printers are built for convenience, not speed. That's the case with the Canon BJC-50. But unlike many similar units, this lightweight (slightly more than 2 pounds) traveling companion produces very impressive output. It's likely to become a real asset to the road warrior.

    The BJC-50 produces clean, crisp text and graphics wherever you are: home, office, hotel, airplane or client's office. I found color output on a variety of papers, including glossy photo paper, equal to presentation copy from full-size printers. Resolutions range from 180x180 dots per inch (Draft) to 720x360 (High).

    The BJC-50 uses a lithium-ion battery that's good for approximately 100 pages of text. You can run the printer with the provided AC adapter, which is also used to charge the battery. The straight-through paper path accommodates a variety of media: plain or specialty paper, glossy paper and high-gloss film, transparencies, fabric sheets and T-shirt transfers. The easy-to-use printer driver lets y ou select media type and size, color or monochrome output, halftone setting and print quality.

    In addition to being smaller and weighing a pound less than the Canon BJC-80 (see Reviews, November 1997), the BJC-50 differs from its sibling in that it's primarily a manual-feed printer, though an optional sheet feeder is available for $59. The BJC-50 has a built-in IrDA port and will also accommodate the TWAIN-compliant IS-12 Color Image Scanner Cartridge ($99), which transforms the printer into a 360dpi scanner. This printer also has a lock to prevent an accidental power-up while it travels in your suitcase or briefcase-a very handy and practical feature.

    For portable printing, the lighter BJC-50 is a welcome addition to Canon's portable printer line. Just make sure you have a couple of ink cartridges on hand as backups.

    The Canon BJC-50 is compact and lightweight (around 2 pounds). The BJC-50 comes with a lithium ion battery that lets you print up to 100 pages before a recharge. In a hurry? The BJC-50's IrDA interface lets you print without a cable. Don't want to give up quality for portability? The BJC-50 delivers crisp black text that's a pleasure to read. Plus, its exclusive Drop Modulation technology gives you rich, vibrant colors. You even have the option of adding an IS-12 Color Image Scanner Cartridge that lets you easily scan photos, logos, and artwork.

    Canon BJC 50 Street Price: $167.00 - $210.00


    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    No doubt you've heard of subnotebooks. Well, the new Canon BJC-50--at a list price of $349--is what you might call a subprinter: About the same size as a cigarette carton and weighing just 2 pounds, this color ink jet qualifies as the company's smallest, lightest, most completely mobile printer.

    Those scant 2 pounds include the weight of the BJC-50's built-in, rechargeable battery. They don't include the unit's AC adapter and parallel cable, but you can get along without these: The battery is good for about 100 pages of output on a single charge, and the printer includes an infrared port for wireless printing from notebooks. However, I wouldn't recommend that you print in a public place, such as a plane: the BJC-50's annoying whine will almost certainly bother your fellow passengers.

    In my informal tests of a preproduction unit, the BJC-50 cranked out about three plain-text pages per minute. That doesn't rival the speed of the quickest desktop ink jets, but it's much faster than Citizen's PN 60i, a $399 thermal printer that's smaller still. An optional high-capacity all-black ink cartridge makes monochrome printing speedier and cheaper; a $99 scanner cartridge turns the printer into a sheet-fed color scanner.

    The BJC-50 doesn't come with a paper tray, so you must laboriously insert paper one sheet at a time--or pay $59 for the optional 30-sheet feeder, which will add weight and bulk. Alternatively, you could pay $50 less for the heftier (a whopping 3.1 pounds) BJC-80 with its built-in 30-page sheet feeder, but then you wouldn't get a built-in battery. If portability matters most, the BJC-50 could make a splendid traveling companion.

  • Product Description for Canon S530D Photo Printer (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    The Canon S530D handles all your document printing needs with ease, without sacrificing photo print quality. Print directly from your Canon PowerShot digital camera or from your digital camera's memory card--either way you'll get crisp, clear, professional-quality print results. You can print 4-by-6-inch borderless prints at resolutions of up to 2,400 x 1,200 dpi; or print at lower resolutions in under a minute. Text is fast too: a single page of black text is delivered in just 4.5 seconds.

    The S530D supports new Exif 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File) technology for maximum color accuracy. Plus, exclusive Easy-PhotoPrint software (Windows only) can save important camera settings in your JPEG image files to automatically adjust printer driver settings for optimum image processing.

    The S530D is PC and Mac compatible, offers an optional image viewer for previewing your shots before they print, and handles a wide range of media types and sizes, including transparencies, T-shirt transfers, banner paper, and more.

    The Canon S530D photo printer features an unmatched combination of high-quality photo and text printing. For laser-sharp text, a true pigment-based ink ensures deep consistent black. Print photos directly from select Canon PowerShot digital cameras, or produce digital prints from your digital camera's memory card. Photo prints are stunning, with up to 2,400 x 1,200 dpi resolution, and photo-lab-quality 4-x-6-inch borderless photos can be delivered in less than a minute. When they're printed on Canon Photo Paper Pro, your favorite photos will retain their brilliance for about 25 years.

    Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology dramatically improves resolution and detail through a revolutionary nozzle system that ejects consistent, prescribed-volume droplets in ultra-fine sizes with remarkable accuracy. Precision Color Distribution Technology features an exclusive symmetrical printhead design to virtually eliminate color variance and banding problems typically found with conventional high-speed, bidirectional printing.

    The S530D printer supports Exif 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File), a worldwide standard for high-quality digital photos. Exclusive Easy-PhotoPrint software delivers the potential of Exif Print. When an Exif-compliant digital camera captures a photo, the camera saves important camera settings and shooting conditions within the JPEG image file. Simple-to-use Easy-PhotoPrint analyzes the recorded data, then automatically adjusts the printer driver settings for optimal image processing. The result is digital photos that are more likely to match the photographer's intentions.

    MSRP for Canon S530D: $199.00
    Street Price: $49.95


    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    WHAT'S HOT: Canon's S530D Direct Connect Photo Printer S530D resembles the company's higher-end S830D in most ways and costs only $199 (versus the S830D's price of $349): The S530D has a PC Card slot to accommodate a CompactFlash adapter and another PC Card adapter currently on promotion (it's not a standard part of the printer's package and Canon doesn't say when the promotion will end). The unit also has an LCD-equipped control panel and a four-pin FireWire port for connecting a digital camera directly. The S530D differs from the S830D in one key way, however: It uses four inks, omitting the light shades of cyan and magenta found on six-ink photo printers. The S530D delivers superior black text, with clean letters that preserve small details such as serifs. Plus it prints text at the respectable speed of 6.5 ppm, so it can easily pinch-hit as a memo generator. Ink costs run a quite reasonable 2 cents per page for text and 10.9 for light graphics (at 5 percent coverage based on Canon's yield specifications). Color cartridges run $14; black costs $12.
    WHAT'S NOT: The S530D does an acceptable job on photos, but their quality isn't comparable to what we've seen from six-ink units; some details were obscured by subtle dottiness and fogginess. Like the S830D, some of the S530D's control-panel menus seem arcane.
    WHAT ELSE: The S530D's on-screen manual covers using the printer's features in great detail, discusses paper types thoroughly, and explains how to use the flash-card reader.
    UPSHOT: Though the S530D is equipped for printing photos without a PC, it's more useful as a home-office printer than as a photo printer.

    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 iP1500 Printer (From the Manufacturer, Canon)

    High speed, sharp resolution, and economical ink refills: Could you ask for more in a home printer? The Canon PIXMA ip1500 is designed with over 1,000 nozzles that produce tiny 2-picoliter droplets, resulting in finely detailed images that are worthy of saving in your family album. Pigment-based inks insure colors will stay true, and the prints are resistant to water, fading, and smudges.

    With resolutions up to 600 x 600 dpi black and 4,800 x 1,200 dpi color, your office documents or school reports will look as beautiful as your photos. Top speeds of 18 ppm black and 13 ppm color (draft mode) will have your pages in hand in just a few seconds; a borderless 4-by-6-inch photo can take as little as 58 seconds--quick enough to hand out party photos as your guests walk out the door.

    Easy-PhotoPrint v3.0While most photo-editing software applications will brighten the entire image, Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 accurately detects the subject's face and adjusts the skin to the optimum tone. Brighten dark faces caused by bright backgrounds. Choose from one-click automatic to correct the entire image all at once, or manual to correct just a selected area.

    Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 also lets you select and print any image on your PC, perfectly trim images, correct images using lab-quality retouching features, correct red-eye, smooth facial lines and skin tone, sharpen faces, remove blemishes, and print in a variety of sizes and layouts.

    Exif Print TechnologyExif 2.2 is the worldwide printer independent standard for digital image processing. Under Exif 2.2, the digital still camera can record data tags for specific camera settings and functions such as whether the flash was on or off, if the camera was in landscape, portrait or night scene mode, etc. Referencing some or all of this information, an Exif Print compatible application can process digital camera images intelligently based on specific camera settings and the shooting environment.

    The ip1500 is compatible with Mac and Windows operating systems, and requires only a USB cable to get it up and running (cable not included). With a depth of just over 8 inches, you can tuck this little powerhouse just about anywhere--even in your dorm room. Canon provides a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

    What's in the Box:

    PIXMA iP1500 photo printer, iP1500 print head, BCI-24 black and BCI-24 color ink tanks, power cord, documentation kit, setup software and user's guide on CD-ROM (printer driver, Easy-PhotoPrint, Easy-WebPrint, PhotoRecord, electronic User's Guide, electronic Photo Application Guide, electronic registration); printer cable not included

    Street Price: $44.00 - $58.95


    CNET.com Editors' rating: 6.1 Fair
    User rating: 83% 17% from 12 users
    The good: Cheap; decent; fast text printing.
    The bad: Disappointing graphics and photo print quality; no paper-output tray; no direct print capability.
    What's it for: Printing text, graphics, and photos.
    Who's it for: Penny-pinching students.
    The bottom line:Whatever savings you get with this printer will be no comfort when you check out its output. Canon's step-up model, the Pixma iP2000, produces better goods and is a far better deal.

    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.

    Sleek size is just an introduction to the printer: documents print in crisp 720 x 360 dpi black and at a surprisingly swift speed--for a portable printer--of five pages per minute in black and white and two pages per minute in color. These rates are supported by a 30-sheet paper feed for continuous printing.

    The award-winning, portable BJC-85 Color Bubble Jet Printer gives you the power to print high-quality black and color documents wherever you go. It features both a built-in USB and parallel port for easy connection to any compatible Mac or PC, fast IrDA (version 1.1) for wireless printing capability, and a long-life battery (with optional battery pack). This printer is so exceptional that professional-quality desktop printing is no longer a luxury reserved for the office-bound.

    Whether you're out of the office or short on desktop space, the compact, ultra-light BJC-85 printer is the perfect companion to your laptop or desktop computer. Its sleek, stylish look and size are just the beginning; this portable powerhouse really performs. Print letters, memos, reports, and other documents in crisp, 720 x 360 dpi black at speeds up to 5 ppm. Output Web pages, charts, graphs, and photos in vibrant color. And do it all with ease using built-in, infrared wireless technology.

With the optional IS-12 Color Image Scanner Cartridge, the BJC-85 printer transforms into a 360 dpi color sheet-fed scanner, so you can have two powerful portable machines in one.


    Street Price: $175.00 - $255.00


    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    WHAT'S HOT: Canon designed the BJC-85 for people on the move, and you can carry it easily in a shoulder bag with your notebook. When folded up for travel, it's about half the size of a notebook computer, at 12 inches wide, 2 inches thick, and only 6 inches deep, and it weighs 3 pounds 4 ounces. (The AC power supply adds another half pound.) If your travels take you far from the power grid--for example, to darkest California--bring along the battery pack, which weighs 1.5 pounds and costs $85. In case you don't care to pack any wires at all, the BJC-85 has an infrared port to receive data from your notebook.
    WHAT'S NOT: The $299 price tag may seem steep, especially for an ink jet that prints text at a sub-par 2.7 ppm, produces text documents marred by rough edges and white spots, and renders graphics almost indecipherable in gray scale or color. But high cost and low performance are the inevitable trade-offs for miniaturization, and in this case it's no more extreme than, say, a notebook compared to a desktop PC. The BJC-85's real bite is on ink prices: Based on Canon's estimates for ink yield, a single page of black text will cost you a hefty 8.1 cents. (The high-yield black option cuts that price to 4.3 cents per page.) Color runs 17.2 cents per page, which is steep but not off the scale.
    WHAT ELSE: Canon provides a top-notch manual for the BJC-85 on the driver CD, but unfortunately this isn't available in printed form; install it on your notebook and you'll have one less thing to haul around. The driver and labels on the printer itself are clear and easy to use. And if your travels demand a scanner as well as a printer, the BJC-85's print head pops off, and you can install the IS-12, a $99 option that turns the printer into a 360-dpi, 8-bit color scanner.
    UPSHOT: The BJC-85 might find a home with the traveling executive, but its slow print speed and poor print quality make it unsuitable for other uses.

The versatile i320 is also ideal for printing fast, colorful Web pages and crisp letters.

    Canon's latest technology makes this the only printer in its class with borderless photo capability for photo-lab-quality 4-x-6-inch prints, which roll out in just over a minute each. The i320 uses Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology, whose revolutionary nozzle ejects consistent droplets of a prescribed volume in ultrafine sizes with remarkable precision, refining colors and giving you exceptional photo quality.

    The printer supports ExifPrint 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File), a worldwide standard for high-quality digital photos, with its exclusive Easy-PhotoPrint software. When a digital camera with ExifPrint technology captures a photo, it saves important camera settings and shooting conditions in the resulting JPEG image file. Easy-PhotoPrint analyzes the recorded data, then automatically adjusts printer driver levels and image-correction settings for optimal processing.

    With its built-in paper feeder, the i320 handles 100 sheets of 24-pound paper, 80 sheets of high-resolution paper, 20 sheets of glossy 4-x-6-inch photo cards, 10 sheets of 8.5-x-11-inch glossy photo paper, or 30 transparency sheets. When the printer is used with Canon Photo Paper Pro, your favorite photos should retain their brilliance for about 25 years.

    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    WHAT'S HOT: Canon's $79 i320 is the least expensive ink jet we tested for our January 2003 roundup, yet it turns out brightly colored, subtly textured glossy photos and clean--if slightly grayish--text on ordinary paper. It prints narrow lines reasonably well--a challenging feat for most ink jets. Its performance doesn't set any records, but at 4.7 pages per minute on text--about 1 ppm slower than the average for the general-purpose printers we reviewed--you won't grow too impatient waiting for your letters and memos.
    Canon provides an excellent set-up poster, a useful printed user's manual, and an extensive HTML manual on CD-ROM that covers details such as hand duplexing and improving print quality.
    WHAT'S NOT: The i320's construction feels flimsy--the shell and paper trays seem likely to crack with little provocation. The paper feed has no bypass slot for an envelope or a single sheet of letterhead. And the i320 doesn't do well on gray-scale photos; we saw rough textures and moire patterns on our test samples. If printing black-and-white images is on your agenda, another printer would be a better choice.
    WHAT ELSE: The i320 doesn't take up much desk space: With its paper trays folded, it's only 15 inches wide, 7 inches deep, and 6.5 inches high. At just 4 pounds, it's also easy to move or carry.

    With such a low purchase price, you'd expect Canon to make its money on the ink cartridges, but we didn't find their cost to be out of line: A black cartridge with an estimated yield of 300 pages is priced at $7.50, and three-color BCI-24C cartridges are priced at $18.50, with estimated yields of 580 pages. That works out to 2.5 cents per black-only page, and about 5.7 cents per color page.

    Another plus: The driver has a quiet mode--it's slower than the other settings, but it lets you print without bothering anyone nearby.

    UPSHOT:
    If preserving desk space, saving some cash, and having a printer that can be seen and not heard matters to you, the i320 will fill the bill.

  • Product Description for Canon i350 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    The Canon i350 Color Bubble Jet Printer delivers crisp text, simple setup, and high-quality photos from the Web—all at an exceptional value. Web photos often suffer from poor quality, so Canon specially developed Easy Webprint software to improve them (Windows only). Functioning as a toolbar in Microsoft IE, it automatically scales and smoothes pages to fit your paper properly, and allows you to format multiple pages as a single, multi-column page.

    Whether you're printing from the web or your own system, your documents, letters and reports will have clean, truly black text thanks to rich pigment-based inks; with manufacturer-rated speeds up to 16 pages per minute, the i350 handily keeps pace with the needs of your home office or family. A maximum resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 dpi and MicroFine Droplet Technology combine for virtually grain-free images ready for framing or sending to friends. Color images print at up to 11 pages per minute at lower resolutions; it's just 85 seconds for a crisp, borderless 4-by-6-inch photo.

    The i350 printer's compact design fits nicely into limited workspaces; with a weight of just 5.3 pounds, you'll hardly know it's there. A full software package is included to make photo printing easy manageable, and the two ink cartridges are included in the box. USB connectivity means just one cord is necessary, but you'll need to supply it yourself. Canon provides a one-year warranty with Instant Exchange service.

    What's in the Box
    Printer; AC power supply and cord; BCI-24 black ink tank; BCI-24 color ink tank; Setup Software and User's Guide CD-ROM including printer drivers, User's Guide and e-registration, Easy-PhotoPrint (Windows/Mac), Easy-WebPrint (Windows, requires Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5, version 6.0 recommended); printer cable not included

    Advanced Performance, Superb Results
    The Canon i350 Color Bubble Jet Printer delivers high-quality photos, crisp text and no-hassle printing from the Web without compromise. It achieves up to 16 ppm in black and up to 11 ppm in color while delivering a maximum resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 color dpi. Canon advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology uses a revolutionary nozzle system that ejects microscopic, prescribed-volume droplets with remarkable accuracy for smoother, more photo-realistic images. The i350 printer uses pigment-based black ink for bold, sharp, black text and high-intensity color inks for true-life, photographic print quality—ideal for printing your vacation photos, business presentations, or e-mails from friends and family.

    Photo Printing with No Borders
    The i350 printer enables you to produce edge-to-edge true borderless photos with the look and feel of traditional photographs—a unique feature for its price class. Using Canon borderless paper, you can print 4-by-6 and 5-by-7-inch borderless photos, perfect for your scrapbook, framing, or sharing memories with others. So save yourself time and a trip to the local photo mini-lab: the i350 printer can turn out a high-definition borderless 4" x 6" photo in approximately 87 seconds.

    Photo and Web Printing Made Easy
    Canon makes it easy to capture life's special moments with Canon digital cameras and camcorders and even easier to preserve those memories with applications like Easy-PhotoPrint. Easy-PhotoPrint software simplifies the entire process of printing borderless photos. Additionally, the software makes it simple to more faithfully reproduce the colors digitally captured by reducing "Photo Noise" and boosting color saturation with "Vivid Photo" technology.

    To eliminate the hassles of web printing Canon developed Easy-WebPrint software (Windows only). Easy-WebPrint is a toolbar for Microsoft Internet Explorer that automatically scales web pages to fit the width of the paper. Web pages that might otherwise print with the right edge clipped off will now fit on your printed page with great looking background colors, too.

    Features:

    • Up to 16 ppm black/up to 11 ppm color
    • 4-by-6 and 5-by-7-inch true borderless photos
    • Up to 4,800 x 1,200 color dpi
    • Software included for quick and easy printing of photos and web pages


    Street Price: $49.00 - $65.00


    PCWORLD.com Editors' review:

    Canon's i350 costs only $60 and resembles a loaf of bread, but the little machine impressed us in most stages of PC World's testing. It printed solid, well-defined black text with only subtle hatching or barbs on diagonal lines. On plain paper, the i350 produced gray-scale photos with realistic textures and shading, though a slightly soft-focus look obscured detail somewhat. (Our prints on coated inkjet paper looked sharper.) On glossy photo paper, the i350 printed our test photos with sharp detail; colors looked natural though slightly washed out. We clocked the i350 printing text at 5.4 pages per minute, a fairly average speed among inkjets we've tested lately; on graphics, the rate fell to an unusually slow 0.7 ppm. One warning: When we handled plain-paper printouts, the inks tended to smear.

    Working with the i350 was largely a positive experience. The unit comes with a detailed, carefully illustrated setup poster, and the driver installs itself: You simply connect a USB cable, insert the driver CD, and wait for a message inviting you to turn on the printer's power. The printer's single status light uses various flashes to indicate problems; you'll have to refer to the manual to figure out what it's trying to tell you, but Canon provides excellent documentation with the i350. The 60-page manual describes driver features and troubleshooting, and it reproduces the table of contents for the larger on-screen manual. If the i350 has an Achilles' heel, that must be its flimsy paper trays; be sure to fold them out of harm's way when they're empty. We didn't like how noisy the printer was while under steam, either.

    The i350 uses the same driver that runs most Canon inkjets. This driver lets you adjust each ink density independently, create duotones, and place a watermark or external image file in the background. It also guides you through two-sided printing for making booklets. The driver interface sometimes requires more windows than ought to be necessary. The watermark feature, for example, has three tabs of its own, though it isn't difficult to figure out.

    The i350 uses two ink cartridges. The black tank costs $7 and prints an estimated 300 pages of text, which works out to a modest 2.3 cents per page. Printing color, on the other hand, isn't particularly cheap. A three-color cartridge costs $18.50 and produces an estimated 170 pages of light graphics (not photos); so you'll use about 12.2 cents of ink (including the cost of black ink) per color page, versus our current average of 10 cents per page.

    UPSHOT: The i350 is for bargain hunters who won't compromise on print quality, but can live without fast print speeds and fancy features.

    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 MP390 (From the Manufacturer, Canon)
    For most homes and small businesses, space is a consideration when buying office machines, which is exactly why multifunctions like the MultiPass MP390 from Canon are such a popular choice. By combining printing, copying, scanning, and fax functions into one convenient unit, you can save on valuable desktop space, while taking advantage of all the functionality normally provided by four separate peripherals. The MP390 can also print high-quality color photos directly from compatible cameras and memory cards.

    With its small, 2-picoliter droplet size, this versatile machine can deliver exceptional print resolutions up to 4,800 x 1,200 in color, resulting in lab-quality photos and crisp, professional prints of graphics and images. Print and copy speeds of up to 18 ppm in black and up to 12 ppm in color ensure that your jobs are done quickly and efficiently, while a 25% to 400% reduction/enlargement feature allows you to produce copies in just the right size. The CCD scanner has a 1,200 x 2,400 dpi optical resolution (9,600 x 9,600 dpi interpolated), which combines with a high 48-bit internal color depth to produce true-to-life scans that are ideal for a wide range of professional applications.

    The fax machine is capable of both black and color faxing, and its 33.6 K modem speed results in transmission speeds of up to 3 seconds per page for black and 1 minute per page for color. Up to 40 speed-dial entries can be programmed into the fax memory, allowing you to easily recall frequently dialed numbers, while a 200-page transmission memory means that you never miss an incoming fax, even when you run out of paper.

    Thanks to built-in memory card slots and compatibility with Bubble Jet Direct and with PictBridge digital cameras and DV camcorders, the MP390 provides a quick and convenient way to print high-quality borderless photos in popular sizes--from 4 by 6 to 8.5 by 11 inches. A photo index sheet helps you select your photos, set print sizes, and choose the number of copies, all without turning on your computer. Additionally, the included software bundle helps you get the most out of your photos, with tools to reduce red-eye, adjust brightness levels, and more. The 100-sheet input tray can handle plain paper, transparencies, envelopes, and professional-quality photo paper in sizes up to 8.5 by 14 inches. Compatible with Windows operating systems only, the MP390 comes backed with a one-year limited warranty.
