Great printer08/16/04
- Pros:
- prints fast
- Cons:
- none
I purchased this printer a few weeks ago after deciding to upgrade to a better color printer from an Canon Multipass C5000 that is about 5 years old and reading some reviews about this printer. I was truly astounded by the quality of the prints. Eventually, I want to get an Epson 2200 to do archival prints for art work, but I thought this printer would be good to use to print reference photos and for other less permanent color prints - the printer has 6 color inks rather than the normal four which makes the print image that much more vibrant. I've tried printing photos on both high quality photo paper and also just plain paper, and have been pleased with both results. The ink does seem to be water resistent, although, I would use a suitable fixative on it if I felt I needed to. It also prints text well. The printer is fast and quiet, and I am truly happy with it.

At Costco07/05/04
- Pros:

I thought I'd mention that I looked this up at costco, and it is available for about $64 after a $20 rebate that is available until 7/31/04. This appeared to be the least expensive option I found.
