Pros: Fast, sharp images and clear fonts at any size while easy and cheap to refill.
Cons: None found: no glitches, bunching or misprints, and the software is intuitive and without errors.
The Bottom Line: If you have a home computer, local network or small office, save yourself time, effort and expense: buy this printer. Look over the stats and believe them, and me.

| falderal's Full Review: Canon i 320 InkJet Printer |
Whether you're printing your stats in a microscopic font to save paper and ink, or bringing a full color photo image to life to give as a gift, this printer offers affordable quality and ease of use.
Cartridges are quite light in price, and refill in no time, whether by injection or whole replacement. It is unusually easy to maintain in general, and in this way, it is care-free. Color cartridges run about thrice the price of black and white, but refill about as cheaply.
As usual, the print speed is in relation to the desired quality: a quick print zips through, while a dense color print may take longer. We printed nice business cards in short order using Avery's handy printing aids, found on their website.
The networking sets up without a hitch, seemingly designed for this very purpose, despite its "non-office-equipment" price. Within minutes, the printer had printed its first job through the network, saving stress, time and an awful lot of monkeying around.
Finally, I have never bought a finer printer. I am low budget but demand quality. I operate a fairly popular website (about 2 to 3 million hits/year). I need to print my stats for my records, but print in microscopic font to save paper. It seems not all that far from microfilm-level resolution - appearing as a gray sheet from four feet away. This printer, and its exceptional resolution have blown me away several times.
In all, this printer is a dream machine - a modern classic, which, barring some major technological breakthrough, will be kept by many until completely worn out, then replaced with the same model. I doubt any will regret this purchase.
