5 Star Rating  "Great printer, with solid customer service experience"2008-08-11
- Reviewed By arcaico-jake
I have had this printer for about 2 years. It is a realy workhorse, printing lots of photos and text for myself and my wife. This thing does a great job with both. Also, despite what some reviewers on here say, the separate ink tanks have the potential to save you considerable amounts of money. Much better design than a single tank model.

Although I've never tried to refill ink tanks or use after-market tanks in this printer, I did run into the plague of ink tank error messages that many reviewers have described. Turns out I had not one, but two defective ink tanks in the printer. After discussing the issue with online support from Canon, they sent two new ink tanks at no charge. They arrived within 3 days.

- Reviewed By User: A17M3QAEY5IP8R
Sure, it's cheap, but you'll quickly make up for that in buying ink. This printer takes 5 separate ink cartirdges, 4 of which must be bought in a pack, so you end up with extras you never use. It will refuse to print if it thinks any of those 5 cartridges have unacceptable ink levels. This has happened to me even on a fairly new cartridge. Even worse, my particular machine often gets confused and tells me I have more than one of the same color installed (I don't). Again, because of this, it refuses to print. I wish I'd never bought this printer.
 
5 Star Rating  "Fantastic Photos"2008-04-22
- Reviewed By User: A35ZUE1FL2PTTM
When I was shopping for a new printer last year. I looked at many brands for consumer evaluations. Canon got the highest rank over all and the price was within my budget. The photos are clear, clean and beautiful. The paper doesn't take long to dry as with many printers and you only have to replace the cartridges individualy, nice when you only run out of one color. I also like the fact that when not in use you can close all trays, no dust build-up and things don't get dropped inside. The availability to print quickly or quality and two paper trays that can be changed in an instant, just push a button.
 
5 Star Rating  "Great buy! Beware about generic ink"2008-02-29
- Reviewed By User: A3UJTP53I8YQGO
I bought this printer about half a year ago because I wanted to get a better photo printer than the hp I had. Photo prints are wonderful and I could not detect any grainyness to them. The printer has a duplexing option (that I love), auto-alignment, and a quiet mode that you can set for the times that you want. You can also set it so that the computer turns the printer on and off when it needs to rather than just leaving it on all the time. Having two paper trays is another useful feature.

I bought some of the generic cartridges from ebay (note: voids warranty) and they seemed to print ok for emails and such but not so good for photos. I switched back to the OE cartridges after they were used up and can't get rid of the white steaks in the blue. So it seems that a new printer head is needed (will buy a new printer because it comes w/ ink & warranty).

The printer makes great photos just don't buy generic cartridges (didn't work for me at least).

Very good color printing. I am surprised to get such good quality for such a small price. It prints much better than my other more expensive one. I would highly recommend this product.

This is a wonderful printer. I bought it to print edible images (with special ink of course) and it really exceded my expectations. The images come out very sharp and very clear. They really have a photograph quality. I'd recommend it to every one looking for a Photo printer. The down side might be the price of the ink cartridges. But as I said before I use it with specialty cartridges so I can't really comment about it.

- Reviewed By User: A7CLORQ53QHK6
It's hard to believe this printer is so inexpensive, and if you need a decent printer at a low cost, by all means the ip4200 is excellent. Based on the reviews I was prepared for two things: 1) it could be a lemon, and 2) it would be an ink hog. After 4 months, so far so good on both counts. I print primarily documents (not photos), and it does great with everything EXCEPT envelopes. That's a little disappointing, and I've wasted a few envps because the printer pulls the envp in real fast and ALWAYS leaves a smeared ink blob on the return address. I can minimize it by using "draft" only.

As for ink, I did learn one trick: a few weeks ago the printer message said I was out of black ink. But I just closed that window and kept on printing. I am STILL on that cartridge (the original one), and the only problem is that I can't print a 6-7 page document without the printer "out of ink" window popping up again. So I figure I've saved a few bucks already by waiting until the ink is REALLY gone. So far the documents still look perfect, and again, this is after a few weeks of additional printing, beyond when the message first came up. This technique of putting off changing the cartridge can definitely help avoid the ink-guzzler-image this printer has.

- Reviewed By User: A317PN3JM4I685
This printer is driving me up the walls. You can buy and install generic ink, but it won't work as it does not have the chips. I tried everything i can find online regarding resetting the printer. Nothing worked. Finally i took out the generic ones, leaving only the Canon black ink (which is full) and it still won't work. I called tech support, only to find that you need all 5 ink tanks in for it to work, otherwise it will damage the print head. All i want is to print black and white copies!!! THe color ink costs about $45. Almost the same price as the printer when on sale. I'd suggest getting a different printer. Read up on the consumer guide or maybe check out that kodak printer that was on the Apprentice.
 
5 Star Rating  "Ink Refills & CD Tray"2008-01-07
- Reviewed By User: A96SQY96WM076
This is our second Canon. We ruined the first one (ip3500) our fault.

1. This printer is capable of printing directly on CD's. Go to ebay & do a search for Canon CD Tray. There is guy there (for years now) that has the trays, a link to instructions for activating CD Printing, & a link for instructions on how to set up your Canon IP4500 for CD Printing. It is very easy, & you can revert it if you change your mind. No worry about hurting your printer. You used to be able to buy the CD Trays on Amazon???

2. Ink refills: We use high quality ink refilling on our Canon. If you get ink from a RELIABLE dealer, you have NO problems. Do NOT use a 'generic' all in one ink refill kit. They WILL mess up your printer!!!

3. inkjethelper dot com for general nfo.
4. inkjet dot cfriends for your first refill kit.
5. inksupply dot com for just ink after you already have a refill kit.

You can also get newer/updated drivers & easy photo print OR easy photo print EX from the European Web site. The guy on ebay has the links for you.

The very first Canon we bought was defective, & Amazon replaced it even before we got the defective one mailed back to them. The replacement has been working fine for years now. Amazon made it extremely easy to do the exchange. Sold by Amazon from Amazon are good ones to watch for, even if the price is a few more dollars, it is worth it.

Canon 4 Cartridge printers & up are great. The IP3500 had to have the 'Prevent Paper Abrasion' turned on all the time, but not this one. If you have problems, it is more likely a defective printer. If you get one that is not defective, the colors & printing are Excellent.

Using ink refilling, you have to manually check ink levels, & turn off the automatic ink level checking. Refill BEFORE you run out of ink completely. There are defective ink cartridges!!! Canon will usually replace them for free. Once you know you have good cartridges, then just refill them.

If you have problems with paper or envelope feed, or some such, then you pobably have a defective printer. Exchange it. It is worth it.
 
2 Star Rating  "Not good for the long haul"2008-01-05
- Reviewed By User: AFSZN8WDF7FSB
I bought this printer about 1½ years ago. I bought it partly because many family members/friends recommended a Canon printer. Another factor in my decision was that it has separate print cartridges for each color.
Still, I was never been completely happy with it. I thought the print quality was adequate but not great.
After about a year, I started experiencing problems with paper feeds in the back paper tray. Paper in this feeder started to misfeed with increasing frequency and failed completely a few months later. Now I am relying completely on the lower paper tray which is cumbersome at best. After conferring with my friends and family who all had Canon printers before, I have learned that they have all switched back to HP! One commented that she, too, had experienced problems with the paper feed mechanism.
To be fair, I do use my printer a lot. Nevertheless, as soon as the current ink cartridges run out, I will be buying another printer and I, too, will likely switch back to a HP!
