  • I'm tickled pink with my CANON i550 Personal Color Printer

    Mar 11 '03
    Pros: Great quality, good price, good brand name!
    Cons: ~none~

    Summary: We recently purchased a new CANON i550 PERSONAL COLOR PRINTER. My two sons convinced me that we really needed one and come to think of it, we did. Our old printer, a Lexmark, was about 8 years old, unreliable, and slower than molasses ... read more

  • Good Print Quality and Reasonable Ink Cost: The Canon i550

    Nov 25 '03
    Pros: Good print quality, inexpensive ink cartridges, reasonable price.
    Cons: Somewhat noisy, initial delay before printing the first print job of the day.

    Summary: About five months ago, I faced a most unfortunate occurrence. Both of my Lexmark printer cartridges had run out of ink at the same time! If you have ever had the unfortunate experience of buying print cartridges for a Lexmark, you will know that they ... read more

  • Amazing Features & Quality at a Low Cost!

    Jul 02 '03
    Pros: Affordability. Speed. Simplicity. Print quality. Quietness. Ink-replacement ease, affordability. Parallel-port/USB options.
    Cons: Not the tiniest desktop footprint. Capable of jamming (albeit only when pushing your luck).

  • This may be the one!

    Jun 28 '03
    Pros: Great photo quality, cheap ink, good speed, fairly quiet, economical use of ink
    Cons: no USB or parallel cable included, fairly large footprint

    Summary: A Sad Tale I have been looking for a fairly affordable printer that will last for more than a couple of months. I have had such terrible luck with almost every major brand out there. I have been through an Epson, Xerox and an HP in the last year a ... read more

  • HP Canon i 550 Ink Jet Printer, "Print In Color, with Style!!"

    Jun 12 '03
    Pros: Quiet, Fast, Compact, Individual Color Ink Cartridges.
    Cons: Initializing of first print page really slow.

    Summary: I have had a Hp Desk-jet 610c Color Printer for the fast 2 years. A great printer, never had a problem with it, but it printed extremely slow, and the picture print quality was really poor. Now that me and my future wife, had decided months ago, that we ... read more

  • Well worth the bucks.

    Apr 09 '03
    Pros: Quiet (really quiet). Separate ink cartridges
    Cons: Could be faster in high quality modes. Bangs around a bit in high speed.

    Summary: Let's face it, there is not a lot of slick things to be said about any basic ink jet printer these days. I just tossed my Epson C60, after I let it sit and the ink dried in the jets, necessitating a $80.00 repair (would have been nice if Epson ... read more

  • High quality printer at a low price

    Apr 06 '03
    Pros: Fast, high quality, attractive photo output, driver stability, inexpensive ink replacement
    Cons: Long initialization time before printing of first page

    Summary: The Canon i550 is a reliable, easy to use, high quality color printer. Canon's four cartridge system allows to replace only the color which is low, saving you money on ink cartridge refills. Print quality for both text and photos is excellent. Canon ... read more

  • Great Quality at a Low Price

    Pros: USB 2.0, Price, Quality, Seperate ink tanks.
    Cons: No USB or Parallel cord provided.

    Summary: My father purchased this printer last night. I urged him to go with Canon (I have the S750, check my review) since I really like mine. My father does some digital image stuff on the side so having a printer that prints good quality was important. ... read more

  • Almost as good if not better than Wally World's photos!!!!!

    Feb 13 '03
    Pros: Relatively fast printing, Quiet, Nice Conservative Styling, Ink Tanks
    Cons: Didn't buy it sooner

    Summary: Recently, I sold my old computer after getting a new one and gave my printer away with the old computer. I took advantage of this time away from a noisy printer with print head problems to look and compare different printer models. After checking on ... read more

  • Inexpensive doesn't mean Cheap

    Dec 17 '02
    Pros: Low Price, Cheap to Run, Good Quality Printing
    Cons: Slow Photo Printing

    Summary: Finally had to replace my dead 5 year old Epson 600, it's inkjets were clogged beyond all repair. After MUCH research on the Web, I had narrowed my choices down to just a few printers with a Max. Price of $150 give or take a few. So it was off ... read more

  • A great printer at a great price!

    Sep 24 '03
    Pros: Excellent printer, four separate ink tanks, Great photos!
    Cons: None

    Summary: I recently changed from being a life long Epson user to the Canon i550. Although my Epsons have always performed routine printing functions well, my interests have moved to digital photography and the Epson C60 that I had performed adequately. However
