GREAT & FAST PRINTER
- Pros: I was planning on investing in two printers...one for text documents and the other for photos. However, this printer does both...extremely well.
Print Speed - compared to other photo printers...this printer is FAST!. The iP4500 has a seperate black ink cartridge that is used for text printing...and prints text at a lower resolution(but still laser quality) in order to increase speed. I can get a full letter size page in 2+ seconds. 4x6 photos in about 40 seconds when set to "Best" quality.
Photo Quality - I printed 36 photos at my nearest Walgreens the day before I purchased this printer. The next day I printed the same pics on the Canon iP4500. The print quality is the same. The only way I could tell which was which, was by the watermark on the back of the photo paper.
Duplex Printing - this feature was a must for me. I print a lot of text and I get tired of wasting paper. The printer can print on two sided photo paper without swearing the print.
PRICE - < $150.00!!!
- Cons: None really...but I will make these comments:
Paper size limited to letter. But it does print full 8x10 photos. If I need to print larger photos, I will send it out and have it done at a photo lab.
No cute buttons...no flash card slots...no image viewer. But who needs these features when all your work is done from the PC. I prefer the simple and clean look and I never used these features on my last photo printer (HP).
- Other Thoughts: If you need fast duplex printing, GREAT photos, and you don't need prints larger than 8.5 x 11...then this is the printer for you!!!
- Pros: The print quality on full page pictures rivals that of more expensive photo printers. I love the fact that you can keep your photo paper in the cassette so it won't get dusty. Ink lasts a long time as well, more than 30 8x10 pictures before I ran out of magenta.
- Cons: Only handles up to 8.5x11 paper, but I don't need to print anything larger at this time.

Very nice!
- Pros: Duplexing, has a cassette tray, prints very fast, cheap ink, separate ink cartridges, separate blacks (one for text one for photos), prints very nice photos, feels very durable, was simple to setup.
- Cons: Doesn't print on CD/DVDs out of box, but that isn't entirely Canon's fault as there is some licensing problem. Also there is a way to make it work, just search google for "Canon Pixma iP4300 CD Printing Instructions" (yes iP4300)... You'll have to buy an extra piece on a auction site but it'll work.
- Other Thoughts: I had a old HP (worked fine, but it was old), it printed really slow so I needed a upgrade. I wanted a printer that could print photos but had low ink costs and separate cartridges. I've always liked Canon so I started searching and found this printer. After researching a bit more it seemed like it would be a good fit.
Overall I have loved this printer. The duplexing was a surprise, I didn't know it did that when I bought it, so that was very nice. Some may complain about ink costs but that is bull. $30 for all three color cartridges is a great deal considering they last a pretty long time. If you figure a good quality 4x6 costs .20 to be printed somewhere it is around .05 for ink costs and around .1 for paper. Seems like a pretty good deal to me.
What was I waiting for?
- Pros: This was an upgrade from an old hp720 that was over 6 years old.
DANG! My wife was about to choke me out for making her suffer with our old slow HP. (I still LOVE HP btw)
I like the dual tray feed option. It prints very fast.
I've not used photo paper yet but what I've printed on stock paper looks amazing.
Included software is acutally quite useful, I was surprised.
- Cons: Setup takes a bit longer than I would like. It seems to think..and think...and think when first getting installed and auto-calibration takes some time. But I'm just picking nits at this point.
- Other Thoughts: My HP was still working when I got this. I hope I get the same lifespan. But sheesh, for the price of 2 sets of ink you can buy a brandnew printer so I guess I can't complain if it bites the dust after a couple years.
Disappointed by Canon Pixma iP4500
- Pros: Slick in appearance and shoots out copies quickly, but only once it starts to print them.
- Cons: This item is needlessly oversized. It cleans itself after every printing job, which slows down production of subsequent print requests. The self-cleaning sounds like I have, under my desk, a cat who is constantly liking her paws, CONSTANTLY. The blank paper bed is far too small.
- Other Thoughts: I purchased this because Newegg, C-net, and Consumer Reports all gave it a high rating. I am scratching my head over this one.
