I have a Canon Pixma iP4000 and am very pleased
with it. Its score and parts output is fine -- not
anything extraordinary, but for an inkjet I'm very
pleased. The carts are pretty inexpensive and the color
carts are individually replaceable, which is a nice plus....and the speed is
GREAT!
My previous most-used printer was an HP
(Photosmart 1215) and it was very unreliable - among other problems, the
connection was constantly (and suddenly) lost. I replaced the
cable more than once but the problem never changed. The
only solution was to restart the computer and that would be a little annoying if
in the middle of a large job. And after another part or two, the
same problem might emerge. Changed drivers. No
solution. When I upgraded to XP Pro, the HP 1215 began to have
a number of erratic problems and even after I found and downloaded a new driver
claimed to be the solution by HP, things only got worse..... I
ultimately found many references (though apochryphal) which perfectly
described all the symptoms of my troubles. The upshot of
all the references was that the HP 1215 - though a relatively recent model - in
many cases simply was incompatible with XP. Whether it
was a decent printer aside from the ongoing battles between it and the OS:
dunno. I replaced it with the absolutely trouble-free Canon and have
been really happy with the results.
Best,
