This is a great affordable introduction to Medium Format Printing, for the keen amateur/professional

My third Canon printer. this particular unit was to replace my my aged HP1220C which has been an excellent unit. Eventually it ceased to work in the yellow spectrum and subsequently other areas. Mother boards are impossible to find.

I have a Kodak hero 7.1 for general printing and scanning and I only got the Canon for printing photo,s ,this it does very well. I printed a photo on both the kodak and the canon and boy what a difference canon wins hands down, Very pleased with printer.

Great photo printer

Nothing so far

This A3+ printer replaced my old HP 1220C which drove me mad with paper feed. Eventually it would only accept lightweight copy paper and was useless for coated photo paper. The Pixma only prints which is all I want it to do: doesn't include fax or copier: I dislike these multiple work stations.

Durable; Easy feed; Great Picture Quality; Lightweight; Simple Controls; Small footprint for an A3

Compact; Good print quality

No networking; Flimsy plastic build quality
