Canon PIXMA iP2000 Photo Printer

The printer was inoperable when I received it. After looking under the hood I discovered that the drive belt for the printer head was off its rollers and twisted around the printer head. There were no cables included. Clearly the seller was hoping to unload a defective printer. In order to get a refund, I had to ship it back to the seller at my own expense. And because it was selling for $100, I had to insure it. Thus I was out a little over $20 on this purchase.

My version of this printer was pretty much useless because everytime I went to print, the paper would get jammed. This happened over and over and over and over and over again. I was not doing anything fancy, simply printing black/white documents. This is why I rank this product as utterly useless. Canon should devote some serious attention to their paper feeding system on this printer.

I will start by saying I buy cheap ink for my printer. And I will follow that by saying HOLY COW can you get some SUPER CHEAP INK for this printer!!! (generic, of course). The photos that print look good and I dont mind the quality, but they certainly arent comparable to real photos from a lab. But it works for what I need it to, it prints normal text really quick, and I couldnt be happier (mostly b/c the ink is soooooo cheap!)

Loved it however had it only for four years and had to replace it as ink well overloaded.

Worst product ever!! Im tired of companies which force you to take bundled software- Cannon, Hewlett-Packard, Compaq, are huge offenders!! You should boycott the above companies!! When you buy their printers you have to download tons of extra crap into your computer that you dont need all just to print something out- extra programs, junk. Its all junk they force on you. The the printers break down right after the 90 day warranty period and you have to get another printer/scanner! These companies purposefully employ planned obscelesence on you!! Stand up!! Fight back! Boycott the bastards!! Go find other companies to support who dont hijack you like that. Use companies who are not so predatory & pernicious through their business tactics!! Boycott the bad companies, force them out of business! Imagine how cocky and arrogant they have to be to give you products like that, just because they know people in Congress to keep them in business!! So they just piss on people like you!! Drop those bastards & nvest in good companies like Apple!!

The iP2000 from Canon is a capable photo printer for occasional use. It boasts high speed and excellent photo quality. In the end I paid $20 more and got the iP3000 instead because (according to my Staples sales guy) the iP3000 allows individual color tanks, so when you run out of one ink you dont need to replace all the colors. Of course, in reality the colors tend to run out more or less at the same time.

I got this printer on clearance... Even at full price its about a thrid of my first one! Great borderless full size 9x11 color prints in about one minute! YIKES thats FAST! Its really quiet too! I just love this thing! Get one now!

This printer replaced my Lexmark z45, which had very expensive toners. I have printed over 300 pages in black with this printer, only using half of the $8 black cartrige. This printer prints excellent borderless photos, transparencies, tshirt transfers, etc. This printer is VERY fast. If you want affordable quality printing, GET THIS PRINTER!!!

works great no problem what so ever with it and i would recomend this product
