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 S520 (From
the Manufacturer, Canon)
The Canon S520 color bubble inkjet printer provides flexibility with refined
color, precision, and detail for photo printing. The S520 uses four
individual ink tanks for cost savings, and with both USB and parallel ports,
it's a suitable match to your Mac or PC.
Canon's trademarked MicroFine Droplet technology ably provides crisp clean
black text in 600 x 600 dpi and color prints at 2,400 x 1,200 dpi, on a wide
variety of media. Rated speeds are up to 14 pages per minute for black and 9
ppm for color. Canon claims you can even get 4-by-6-inch borderless prints
in less than a minute.
This quiet printer (only 42 dB in best quality mode) will suit most
light-duty tasks in small offices and at home. When ink levels are low,
simply drop in the single color cartridge you need, reducing waste. Software
includes the printer drivers and the BJ Solution Disk CD-ROM. On the latter,
titles for Windows include PhotoRecord and ZoomBrowser; for Mac,
ImageBrowser; and for both, PhotoStitch. Canon offers a one-year limited
warranty on parts and labor.
