Product Description

The Canon Pixma iP3000 Photo Printer delivers speed, quality and convenience in a stylish package. How fast is it? It produces up to 22 ppm in black and up to 15 ppm in color and a beautiful 4" x 6" borderless print takes only 36 seconds. Plus, you have the convenience of direct photo printing: simply connect any PictBridge-compatible digital camera or DV camcorder, and print! This PC-free process eliminates the need to be tied to your computer saving you time.But the Pixma iP3000 Photo Printer isn't just fast. It also achieves impressive detail and clarity, as a result of Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE). This technology features an upgraded 1,600-nozzle print head that ejects precise, consistent droplets as small as 2 picoliters, for amazing photo-realism. This high-efficiency printer also uses a specially formulated black ink for laser-like text on reports and letters, along with high-intensity color inks for brilliant photos and graphics. Your borderless photos, from 4 x 6 up to 8.5 x 11 in., will have the look and feel of traditional photographs.To help reduce printing costs, this efficient system has four individual ink tanks that let you replace only the color that runs out, rather than an entire cartridge containing unused ink. Plus, a unique low-ink sensor alerts you when ink levels are low, so you are prepared to just drop in a new tank when needed.

Amazon.com Product Description

High speed, sharp resolution, and economical ink refills: Could you ask for more in a home printer? The Canon PIXMA ip3000 is designed with 1,600 nozzles that produce tiny 2-picoliter droplets, resulting in finely detailed images that are worthy of saving in your family photo albums. Pigment-based inks insure colors will stay true, and the prints are resistant to water, fading, and smudges.

<b>Precision Color Distribution Technology</b>
<img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/ultraprechead.gif" align="right" border=0> Unlike other systems, nozzle configuration in Bubble Jet printers is simple, so it is easier to make them smaller and more dense. Using its superior semiconductor manufacturing technology, Canon has succeeded in developing an ultrahigh-precision, multinozzle print head. The problem of color inconsistency has been solved by positioning a mirror-image line of 128 nozzles (600 dpi pitch for each color) at a half-pitch offset from the existing line. This configuration also provides the added advantage of enabling high-resolution printing at 1,200 dpi.

<b>Easy-PhotoPrint v3.0</b>
While most photo-editing software applications will brighten the entire image, Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 accurately detects the subject's face and adjusts the skin to the optimum tone. Brighten dark faces caused by bright backgrounds. Choose from one-click automatic to correct the entire image all at once, or manual to correct just a selected area.

Easy-PhotoPrint 3.0 also lets you select and print any image on your PC, perfectly trim images, correct images using lab-quality retouching features, correct red-eye, smooth facial lines and skin tone, sharpen faces, remove blemishes, and print in a variety of sizes and layouts.

<b>Exif Print Technology</b>
Exif 2.2 is the worldwide printer independent standard for digital image processing. Under Exif 2.2, the digital still camera can record data tags for specific camera settings and functions such as whether the flash was on or off, if the camera was in landscape, portrait or night scene mode, etc. Referencing some or all of this information, an Exif Print compatible application can process digital camera images intelligently based on specific camera settings and the shooting environment.

Great double siding printer.......2007-06-08

This is my low cost travel printer that double sides like a champ. I highly recommend it.

By Far The Best, The Most Reliable, The Most Cost Effective Printer I've Ever Had!.......2007-04-06

I have had about 6 printers before this one. This is the only printer I've had that is easily refilled, no hiccups, fuss, error messages. In addition, the printer has the quiet mode option, which significantly reduces printing noise -- comparable to laser printers. I am a student, and I use PowerPoint a lot; I use the alternative sheet feeder from the bottom, loaded with 4x6 index cards, to print lecture slides. Even more, with duplex on, I am further able to print two lecture slides back-to-back of the index paper. Wow!

In 3 years, I never had had to buy any additional ink cartridge.
The ink refill bought for only $32 at Costco has taken care of all my ink needs.

This product has paid for itself many times over.
Boy was I lucky to have stumbled onto this product.

Unfortunately, the news is up; currently the going price on eBay for this printer is around $200. That's ironic, considering that printers usually depreciate, not appreciate in price. [grin]

Excellent Printer.......2007-03-10

Great Prints - all kinds of paper. Printing on both sides is awesome! Ink cartridges are cheap to buy, it almost doesn't pay to re-fill - but I do anyway.

Great printer but getting expensive to buy on eBay.......2007-02-21

I bought one of these for my daughter's homework needs as well as for the CD printing ability. Delighted with the purchase. The US printers will not print to CD as default, you need to do a quick Google search to learn how to do it. Ink is cheap, especially if you refill yourself (maybe $0.50 a cartridge). Print quality is excellent. Outside plastic case looks like junk, but the inside is what counts, right?

I'm now trying to buy another one on eBay, but everyone is getting wise to the value of this printer. Many of them are now going for $200+ and that's a little rich for my blood.

So:

excellent print quality
CD printing
cheap ink
replaceable nozzles
duplexing

A great machine. I have to scratch my head when I read some of the negative reviews on this site...

Canon's dont last.......2007-02-09

This is the 3rd Canon printer I have bought in just over 3 years and it is the last time I will ever buy one. At just over one year of owning each printer, I had different problems with each one, too expensive to repair, so ended up just buying another. But after this one, I will never buy another Canon. They work well for about a year, but after that they quit running. I used to have high regards for Canon products and I always bought one because of the multiple inket refills but it is worthless to me if I have to buy another every year and just after the warranty runs out.
