  Strengths: Great text and photo quality, inexpensive ink, reasonably fast, convenient 4x6 photo paper holder.

  Weaknesses: Sometimes takes a long time to start printing

  Overall: I bought this printer looking for solid text printing at a reasonable speed and good quality photo printing. I am not disappointed. The removable 4x6 photo try is very convenient, although on occasion it can get in the way when trying to load regular paper. The print quality is outstanding, I have never had any complaints. It print speed for plain text is impressive, although it does have an annoying habit of sometimes taking up to 30 seconds or so to start printing.

  Strengths: Economic, excellent quality for photo printing and documents

  Weaknesses: Head needed to be replaced after 2 months

  Overall: Had high expectations, which came thru while the unit worked. No problem with paperjamming, high quality photo printing. Cost and use of ink is very reasonable.Printer has been used very moderately sofar. It's not being used in a office setting. Just for personal use.Photoprinting caused the printhead to fail. Had to be replaced. Was under warranty so there were no cost to me. However, I would not buy this product again after this early failure.

  Strengths: Fast

  Weaknesses: Paper will not feed. Paper is crumbled every time.

  Overall: After using the printer for about 2 months, it quit feeding paper through. Also, I sent Canon Support an e-mail. After two weeks, I still have not heard from them.

  Strengths: fast quiet excellent photo quality

  Weaknesses: absolutely none

  Overall: after owning a canon BJ6000 I knew I wanted another Canon printer-this printer is so fast and so quiet it's unreal-so is the low price! extra photo ink assures high quality-and the ink is less expensive than most. Software is easy to use-I was afraid I'd never find a printer that was as good as my last Canon-but this one surpasses it!
