Canon Pixma iP3500 Inkjet Printer Review

by Melissa Riofrio

- The Canon Pixma iP3500 inkjet printer is ambitious, squeezing a lot of printer functionality into an inexpensive package. While it falls short in some ways, it's still a great value.

User Reviews for Canon Pixma IP3500

Reviewed by: rperry0220

Duration of ownership: 8 Months

Strengths: compact good looks

Weaknesses: Frequent jams, high ink costs per print

Overall Evaluation: Poor ink management makes this a cheap printer to buy, but an expensive printer to maintain. Photo reproduction is mediocre, even when compared to other budget printers. I've experienced frequent paper jambs, particularly from the front loading tray. It does have crisp black ink printing, but the cartridges are expensive and an internal chip prevents them from being refilled.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Fast, great printing quality, low price, auto-power on/off, 2 paper feed directions, and separate ink cartridges(interchangeable with other Canon printers).

Weaknesses: Basic features.

Overall Evaluation: I bought this printer to replace my two old Epson printers because the ink cartridges for them were becoming costlier and harder to find. I'm glad that Canon has one uniform line of ink cartridges for most models so that I don't have to worry about its cartridges running out of production for quite a long while. The printing quality is definitely outstanding, at least, compared to my other two Epson's. Very clear text printing without smudges. Beautiful photo prints especially with the photo glossy paper included in the box. Overall, very satisfied.
