User Reviews for Canon PIXMA iP4000 Inkjet Photo Printer

Strengths: There are so many: Two paper locations (bottom tray and top sheet feeder); excellent quality printing of photos, charts, text--even in draft mode! Ink is cheap, 3rd party ink seems to work great too.

Weaknesses: None. The paperfeed switch takes some getting used to (make sure you've selected the right tray for the media you're printing).

Overall Evaluation: I've been using Epson inkjets since 1997--maybe because I didn't know better. I finally got sick of all the problems, ink clogs, cartridge prices & 3rd party incompatibility, so I went to Canon. The ip4000 is a solid, fast, quality workhorse that prints at speeds I thought were only obtainable by lasers or very expensive inkjets. I've only had to clean the heads twice and change cartridges once, yet I've easily printed close to 1000 pages--most color. Does great with 4x6 photo paper and gives you great borderless prints. Great driver options for enhancing lower-quality photos to get great prints. Best $120 I've spent!

Strengths: prints text and pictures beautifully, duplexing option wonderful

Weaknesses:

Overall Evaluation: I love this printer. Of course coming from an Epson almost anything is better, but the ip 4000 prints beautifully. My only problem is that in Outlook, my left margins gets cut off about 1/2 an inch. I have adjusted margins, called Canon and no one seems to be able to fix this problem. Did anyone else have this issue? I had a ip 3000 and then upgraded in case I got a dud, but no such luck. In spite of this issue, this printer brought tears to my eyes, it is so wonderful and a good price too. Just this one pesky problem...
