Purchased the Canon MP210 Printer/Scanner/Copier and I am very happy with it. I have another printer the Canon Pixma ip 4000 connected to my desktop which I use to print high quality photo's. I purchased the MP210 to use with my laptop and have been very pleased with it. The scanner and copy functions work flawlessly. The printer does a good job but I prefer the ip 4000 for printing color photo's. The set-up worked flawlessly, running Vista Home Premium, but took a while. You have to be patient and wait for the steps to complete. The best feature of all was the price. Unbelievable to get that functionality for $80.00. Purchase of this printer is a "no-brainer" for first time users and anyone with a restricted budget. Just remember, and this goes for ALL THE PRINTER MANUFACTURERS, that the cost of the replacement cartridges will exceed the cost of the printer after just 2 instances of cartridge replacements(its entirely possible that the low cost of the printer is being subsidized by the potential profits generated by the ridiculous prices of the replacement ink cartridges!)

Bought the printer because a relative had had great experiences with PIXMA printer/scanner combos. Scanner works like a charm. Printer is an ink hound. I went through my black ink within 4 weeks of moderate printing. I printed no more than 150 pages. Printer broke on me by telling me that the feeder was "jammed" when in fact there was not one shred of paper in the machine. I must say, Canon customer service on the phone was very helpful and responsive and is in the process of mailing me a replacement(refurbished) printer. They weren't painful about it at all. That said, I'm not too happy the printer broke down. Print quality was a 7-8 on a scale of 1-10. Not as crisp as I've seen, but not terrible at all. Color printing was terrific, ironically enough, but that too sucks up a lot of ink. Speed was not painful at all.

Very happy with this printer - I bought the least expensive version of a color inkjet photo printer from Canon - and don't need the extras such as the slots and so forth. Using on a Mac. Not sure how long the ink will last. Plus the copy and scanning is very good too! So far not a problem. Fast hookup and looks great!

I've had this printer for 4 months and it's Awesome! It prints pictures BETTER than walgreens and rite-aid! Color and Black & White is crisp and clean!
For the reviewers that have commented the pictures could be better perhaps its yor camera! We have a 10mega pixel camera and I can print nice big pictures, hang them on my wall and visitors think they're professional!
I am a chronic printer, I print everything and it has Never jammed or errored. I've printed thousands of pictures and text documents and am just now needing to buy new ink (which btw is cheap on ebay! color & b/w for $35!)
I've owned about 6 printers and this one beats even the more pricier ones!
Installation and setup is EASY, even for beginners.
The ONLY downfall is it doesn't come with a USB cord :(
I am a full time college student and I have a family so between school work and pictures you can't buy a better printer!

Bought this for my Mom since her lexmark all in one died on her. I just wanted something cheap, simple to use, and performed well. I was suprised that the quality was pretty good (especially for the price). AL lin all great deal if you are looking for a simple all in one that does a good job. I have had lexmark and epson as well and I am most impressed with the canon printers.

I only want to use the Canon Pixma MP210 for scanning, but guess what - it can't scan unless there are ink cartridges in the thing! I just confirmed with Canon support - how very, ridiculously sad.

This is a ridiculously good deal. You get a printer, scanner, and copier, all for a very good price. I've had the MP210 for only two days, but I have used it a lot and used all of its features and done quite a bit of printing. So far, so good.

I got my new Dell notebook with WinXP, so setup was a snap. Also, the printer came with both ink cartridges, something other manufacturers do not include. I have been buying Canon printers lately because they have been superior in every way - unlike other brands I had used in the past.

I have had this about a year now, since Spring 2007. I do not use any Canon software with it, but I can tell you that it does a great job at both scanning and printing, not to mention a copier.

While it does not have memory card slots or other features, my computer does. Besides, I wouldn't think of printing anything before retouching it in photoshop or Picasa. I print my photos at Costco, not on an inkjet, due to less cost and much higher quality. But for printing things like maps, letters, and one-off things, it cannot be beat for the price. Scanning is also good, and I even used it to scan our passports and make a PDF with them, then put that on a thumb drive and sent a copy to a family member in case it gets lost.

If you can live with using your computer for card-reading and other duties, you will not feel as though you are missing features. I certainly don't look at the printer and think of shortcomings. Ink is about average price, and lasts a bit longer than others (Epson) that I have used. Also it can take Canon 40/41 ink packs, which are larger than the stock packs included with the printer.

Canon Pixma MP210 Photo All-In-One Inkjet Printer (2175B002) So far I have found this product to be very satisfactory, fine print quality, easy set up. It does seem to take longer than I am used to for it to "warm up" and to "shut down" though, not a real problem

Good Price,free expedient delivery, excellent printing. Good Photos for my useage. I get photos at retail store for larger quantities and quality and save my ink cartridge cost. I'm a happy camper. Thanks Amazon!
