When you go shopping for printers these days, most of the popular products are "all-in-ones" that integrate the printer with a scanner and even...

Honestly, I was skeptical about this Canon iP100 inkjet printer but when I purchased one and tried it out and I am very happy with it.

Other owners report at Amazon.com that the paper feed jams regularly; for some the problem began immediately, while for others it occurred after a year. Another says the printer continues to work well after 15 months of use, but he had trouble connecting via Bluetooth when he switched to Mac.

Portable and lightweight; Good text; photo prints; Can print directly from cameras
