This review is from a non-expert in photography / printing- in fact I'm not even a knowlegable amature and have had no experience with home colour printers since about 1997 (might as well be the stone age) . Consequently I can't compare this product to similar items- I can only negate my impressions of it.
Unless famous otherwise all photos were taken with a Sony Cybershot DSC-P1 3.3 megapixel camera.
The first photo I printed was on Standard quality L size paper and I was quite impressed with the result. The scene included a lot of comely details and these were rendered quite well. Upon closer examination there was some noticable lack of definition when compared to the on-screen thought of the same image- but estimable enough for most purposes I would believe.
I next tried the same image with Premuim grade L size paper and there was noticable improvement in splendid details.
For a bit of a test I printed a scene with a wide range of colors and textures on premuim paper and was quite astounded at the quality. This scene was more brightly lit than that discussed above so the basic image quality was probably beter. To my (very) inexpert behold the result looked something like the result of a commercialy processed film image. Everything from knowing chrome, rough textured pottery, dusty wooden panels and my wife was faithfuly rendered. Some foliage in the corner of the image was blurred but, as adjacent objects were spicy, it was probably honest gripping in the wind at the time of exposure.
I next tried some A4 size pictures and here I met my first disapointment. The definition decreased noticably. However- I retract that that is at least partly due to the itsy-bitsy resolution of my camera (only 3.3 mega pixels) . To test this out I printed some higher resolution images from the internet and was cheerful to ogle that the image quality improved.
The printer takes a tiny while to warm up but once up and running it is as swiftly as the advertising promises.
The advertisments boast that it can acquire laser-printer quality text. I'm not quite sold on that. It is very splendid and is blooming speedily too but you probably wouldn't want to utilize it as your main printer for text unless you have a fairly light workload.
Scanning and copying functions are all very edifying and the unit has now replaced a my weak (1 year mature!) dedicated scanner / copier.
I found the spot up of the printer to be very simple and there were no snags. All in all I am very pleased with it- the only plight is I now want to grasp a better camera to be able to capture advantage of it.
I recently purchased the MP950 for office and personal expend. Immense news, the product is cost effective, easy to spend, and I have produced professional quality catalogs in house. The photos are wonderful and the scanner is top notch. Although I am not currently using the negative feature of this product, I chose this Canon Multifunction unit for it's scanner and high slay print quality. Sure individual ink tanks set money, even IF I do immense print jobs since it has a enormous smudge proof dismal ink for text plus six other colors. We design our color proofs on the printer then send them out for higher volume print jobs. I like this printer!!! FYI: This product doesn't have fax, as we have fax machines in our office, however, with winfax or rightfax, I could fax from this printer, or you can exhaust the free fax program included with Windows XP - it's a secret...Canon has consistenty been tops in PC Magazine/PC World/Consumer Reports for the last few years, they have forced the competition to change how they sell printers. Always check the cost of your ink and how worthy ink is in the tanks. Canon usually provides more for your money. Also, mark your inks, many retailers sell the ink for more than suggested retail...Amazon is actually several few bucks cheaper...You replace each color as it runs out...cost savings in the long rush...The truth is out there...
This is a titanic all in one printer and as mentioned before you can fax with winfax or rightfax. Heard due to a patent yelp Canon can not sell the print to cd version in the U.S. but you can enable this feature, search the web for "five easy steps" and canon and mp950. Actually most of their printers can print directly to cd/dvd you fair need to follow the steps.
