Worst buy in the world; machine is slow and expensive

Pros: photos are fabulous but

Cons: Expensive ink tanks are empty within days; you can only print 1 document at the time, then wait for 10 minutes for the next.

works so well in every way

Pros: fast, high image quality, easy to use, its never jammed on me

Cons: ink tanks dont last long but thats the same with all printers. i got the printer for $150 and it cost me almost that again just to re-fill all the ink tanks!

Excellent printer

I am very impressed with this printer. It produces great print quality (provided you have a decent camera) and is very quick. It is also very quiet. I would recommend this printer to anyone..great value for money!
