Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

For printing standard office documents and glossy family craft projects, the Canon S300 printer delivers outstanding quality and value. Sized at just 10 by 15 inches, it was thoughtfully designed for comfortable use even in cramped home offices. (In this case, good things definitely come in small packages.)

Color prints are churned out at up to 7.5 color pages per minute, with a color-saturated 2,400 x 1,200 dpi resolution. Canon's bubble-jet technology supplies 128 nozzles for each color, all of which originate from the same compact cartridge. Monochrome print jobs are processed at up to 11 pages per minute, and receive a letter-perfect 600 x 600 dpi resolution.

The S300 can produce exceptional, photo-quality prints, including edge-to-edge, 4-by-6-inch photos. Paper-handling possibilities include envelopes, transparencies, glossy photo sheets, and banners, as well as plain paper in letter and legal sizes. The printer connects to your system via a single USB cable, making installation simple and keeping your desk free of clutter.

PhotoRecord image processing software is included, along with drivers for both Windows and Macintosh systems. Canon provides a one-year, limited warranty with instant exchange service available as an option.

From the Manufacturer

The S300 Color Bubble Jet Printer is designed for quickly and brilliantly printing the projects that families create most, from super-sharp letters and reports to incredible greeting cards and posters. Plus, thanks to Canon's expertise in image reproduction, it gives you the ability to print spectacular color photos. With the included photo software, high-intensity ink, and Canon's exclusive advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology, you can print picture-perfect photos that last for many years.

Speed through projects at up to 11 ppm in black and up to 7.5 ppm in color. And when printing in color, you will get a remarkable 2,400 x 1,200 dpi--38 percent greater than 2,880 x 720 dpi printers. That's high-performance printing, so you can output projects with ease and confidence.

Canon's leading image technology ensures exceptional photo-printing performance. Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology precisely applies microscopic ink droplets, resulting in reduced grain, richer tonality, greater contrast, and higher resolution. Canon's high optical density ink produces brighter, more vivid colors and crisp, laser-quality black. Plus, the included PhotoRecord software enables you to print edge-to-edge, 4-by-6-inch photos.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great printer, a great price., February 11, 2002
By 
Peter Hunt (Mountain View, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Canon S300 Color Bubble Jet Printer (Office Product)
I can't praise this printer enough. I haven't owned an inkjet printer, so maybe I'm easily impressed. But from the moment I brought it home, this printer has exceeded my expectations.

The S300 is quite small, so it fit easily into my (somewhat cramped) office. It was very easy to hook up to my computer and install the drivers on Windows. The written instructions were clear, and the driver installation program guided me through the head calibration task in no time.

After that, everything just worked. I printed out a few color images and web pages just for fun, and have since used it quite often to print out verious tax-related documents and letters. The print quality is impressive, even on plain paper. The printing speed is fine for most documents. And the little extras like automatic power on/off make the printer a joy to use.

I expected to have to pay twice what I did to get a printer I was happy with. At around $100, this printer is astoundingly good.

A word of warning: the ink cartridges for this printer are quite small, so if you're looking for a home office printer, you should probably get something more industrial-stength. However, if you only need to print a few pages every now and then, but still want reasonable print quality, then the S300 is ideal for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars very nice printer- but needed new ink after ~100 pages., December 31, 2001
By 
This review is from: Canon S300 Color Bubble Jet Printer (Office Product)
setup was easy. print beautiful, quick. price great. after having lexmark printers, i shopped with regard to replacement ink prices. canon replacement ink prices seemed reasonable. after purchase, i saw the ink tanks were tiny (9ml black, 5mlx3 color). my old lexmark tanks don't indicate volume, but they look to be 3 times larger than the canon. with the lexmark, i was getting 6 months(about 1000 pages) of printing. with the canon, i used up the black ink after only about 100 pages (half of them cd covers) in 16 days. print quality was set at "standard"- and did not "clean heads" or do other ink-wasting activities. i got far less than the 300 pages the manual says you'll get, esp. when you consider the number of pages that were plain cd covers. i used the tank until it failed- did not replace when the warning came up (worked for about 20 pages). i haven't done much color printing yet, only a few photos and mixed documents. i'm sure the color won't last long, either (manual says 170 pages). i recommend the printer, but be sure to have replacement ink tanks on hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Canon S300 Printer is Very Good, November 27, 2001
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Canon S300 Color Bubble Jet Printer (Office Product)
This is an excellent printer for the price. I print text, graphics and photos and it does a very good job and is fast. The ink lasts surprisingly long given the size of the cartridges. I expect you would really have to go to the high end (...) before you would see a printer significantly different for the price (I looked around quite a bit). I am satisfied and recommend this printer.
