5.0 out of 5 stars canon pixma mp270 inkjet printer, June 30, 2010

This review is from: Canon PIXMA MP270 Inkjet Photo All-in-One (3744B002) (Office Product)

Pros:
Unit and ink cartridges are reasonably priced
Easy to learn and simple to use
Fantastic prints

Cons:
Santa should have brought me this for christmas (No cons!)

Comments:
The Canon Pixma MP270 Inkjet printer is one of the best in its class. The quality of prints are superb and the cost of both the package and the ink cartridges are exceptional. I use it daily for college assignments, work projects, pictures and photocopies. I was tempted to buy the lower version (MP250) locally, but after reading the reviews online at Amazon (for the MP250) I decided to place the order for this model and I haven't had reason to regret this decision yet. It cost me a bit more, but in the end the purchase was well worth both the cost and wait.

1Life ""Live life with no regrets" ~ ... (east coast) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Canon PIXMA MP270 Inkjet Photo All-in-One (3744B002) (Office Product)

pros: good printer, very good price (got mine at kmart - in store for $36.00 new), installs easily, and did not need to align printer heads either, printed just fine upon start. prints blk/white very fast. comes with ink (color/black). only takes 2 cartridges - 1 black, 1 color. (i find this to be good cuz it's less costly in the long run to replace 2 cartridges instead of the usual 4 others take.)

cons: DID NOT COME W/ USB CABLE to connect it to pc. You will need this in order to finish installation. So before you cash out, pick up an a to b usb cable. Any universal one should work, so long as it fits a USB 1.1 port, cuz that's what this pixma printer has, a usb 1.1. (i was looking for a universal, but store ran out, so i had to spend some $ on a belkin 2.0. More then what i need, but it's compatible w/ the 1.1) Does not come w/ paper. Make sure you buy a ream. (It has 5 sheets of some very small glossy like stationery, maybe for photo's, not sure. def very small though.)
