What You Should Know about the PIXMA iP6600D Photo Inkjet Printer (2400x9600 DPI, Color, 42KB, PC/Mac)

Duplex Printing a Must for Busy Offices

A printer with duplex capability contains an internal mechanism for turning the paper over to print on the other side. (This is not to be confused with the manual duplexing that some printers offer, where driver software walks you through the process of turning over the paper yourself.) Any high-volume office should seriously consider this feature. The duplexing process slows down your print job a bit, but it also immediately cuts your paper use in half -- good for your budget, good for the environment.

Strengths: Looks- cost- printing quality is awesome.

Weaknesses: Price of the ink cartridges

Overall Evaluation: This printer is great - very quite- pretty fast. I have printed many images and they look awesome. I have a few other ink jets by differant manufactures and this is hands down the best in terms of image quality.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Great printer. Speedy. Quiet. Paper feeds properly every time.

Weaknesses: serious: red blotches on faces of subjects

Overall Evaluation: Colors are good and very vivid.Howver, occasionally, red blotching on the forehead, cheeks, nose, chin on my prints. It was serious enough to call Canon support.They had me print one of their own jpg -- which printed very well and beautifully. Therefore, Tech said: My jpgs must be corrupted or it should print as good as their sample jpg.Subsequently, I uploaded my jpgs to Costco and ordered prints. NO problems. No red blotching.I had a friend print my jpgs from his HP printer.NO problems.Canon refuses to deal anymore with this problem and Best Buy will not accept returns over 15 days.
