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.

ProductDescription for Canon S400
(From the Manufacturer, Canon)
With innovative features, solid performance, and a low price tag, the
Canon S400 Color Bubble Jet printer is all you need for your home or
office. Its patented Think Tank System efficiently manages ink use,
reducing waste and saving you money. Rather than replacing an entire
cartridge, the S400 allows you to change individual ink tanks. This
system also gives you the option to switch to Canon's IS-32 Color Image
Scanner cartridge, allowing the S400 printer to work as a 720 dpi color
sheetfed scanner.
At six pages per minute (four ppm color) and 1,440 x 720 dpi, the S400
combines fast printing with crisp graphics and professional documents.
It handles a wide variety of paper types and sizes, including glossy
photo, transparencies, envelopes, and T-shirt transfers. Built-in USB
and parallel ports make connecting quick and easy for both Mac and PC
systems.
Street Price: $365.00 - $1.047
PCWORLD.com Editors' review: WHAT'S HOT: The S400's $79 price tag makes it the least
expensive ink jet that PC World has reviewed in a long time. Despite the
low cost, it is well designed and fairly versatile, with support for
both standard ink and optional photo ink. The S400's ink prices are
quite modest, at 2 cents for a page of black text and 11 cents for a
page of color graphics. Also, each ink color comes in a separately
replaceable tank, so if you deplete one color before the others you can
replace just that one; on most other printers you have to replace all
the color inks when one color runs dry. WHAT'S NOT: The S400 prints graphics at a
run-of-the-mill 0.6 pages per minute, but it prints text at only 2.3
ppm, about half the speed of many printers on the chart. Plus, its print
quality on ordinary paper didn't impress us; text showed some shadowing
or spattering and was somewhat rough on big letters, while graphics
looked very dotty and didn't have much detail. (Note that on coated ink
jet paper the S400's print quality takes a big jump in quality.) A minor
detail: The output tray sort of leans against the printer instead of
attaching snugly. That's fine until you move the printer, when the tray
can easily slip off. WHAT ELSE: You can remove the S400's print head and
replace it with a gizmo that turns the printer into a scanner. The IS-32
scanner head captures 24-bit color at 720 dpi, similar to a low-end
flatbed scanner. But it costs $69, which is only a bit less than an
inexpensive scanner; considering the inconvenience of swapping heads and
not being able to print while the scanner head is installed, it makes
more sense just to buy a stand-alone scanner for your desk. We did not
test the IS-32 scanner features. Canon really outdid itself on the
S400's documentation: The excellent and detailed 500-page manual would
probably outweigh the printer itself if Canon had decided to print it,
but it is only available on the CD. UPSHOT: The S400's low purchase price and relatively
low ink costs might make it a good choice for casual users, though
less-than-stellar print quality and slow speeds will probably discourage
anybody who plans on doing more than occasional printing.
