    5 of 5 100% Satisfied Tuesday, April 01, 2008
    Rich from Doylestown, PA  

    My HP printer died after 10yrs. I don't need an all-in-one or even a photo...just need a reliable color printer. CNET recommended this Canon and at $90 it is perfect for me. I like the separate paper feeds and setup was a breeze. Printing is fast and sharp. Haven't used the photo or double sided print features yet but I expect them to be flawless like the other functions. You won't be sorry if you get this printer.

    5 of 5 Very Pleased Tuesday, March 25, 2008
    A Customer from Granite Falls, NC  
    This product was a Christmas gift and I have not used a photo printer before. This was very easy to set up and I began using it immediately. The pictures are wonderful and being able to hook the camera directly into the printer makes it so easy to print the pictures you want. They print surprisingly quick.

    5 of 5 Good value... Sunday, February 24, 2008
    Crispin from North Prairie, WI  
    I purchased the ip4500 printer to replace another Canon printer I owned - the highly rated (but older) i960 which needed a printhead replacement ($70) so the modest difference in price made getting a new printer practical. So far the ip4500 has proved to be a worthy successor to the i960 with a quieter and faster print speed. The photos look like they were printed by a professional photo shop...excellent quality. However the caveat to this printer (versus the i960) is that the ink cartridges have a built-in chip that monitors the ink usage and alerts you to low ink levels and replacement time. This new cartridge design makes it difficult to use third party ink cartridges since the chip is proprietary and can not be duplicated by other manufacturers. There are some work-arounds to this problem if you Google them or you can buy remanufactured ink cartridges or refill your empty cartridges - all of these alternatives are less than desirable (at least for me) and I will likely just stick to purchasing Canon inks.

    5 of 5 Best I've owned yet Monday, February 11, 2008
    David from Pensacola, Fl  
    Nice, really nice. I got this printer to use as a dedicated photo printer. This keeps me from having to change out one cartrage and align the printer head on my Lexmark all-in-one. The Lexmark did a good job of printing but this Canon is a whole other world. My prints on Canon paper look like I ordered them from a pro print shop. It's fast, very fast, even when printing at high resolution.

    5 of 5 CANON PIXMA IP 4500 Thursday, January 31, 2008
    A Customer from SHALIMAR, FL  
    Great printer! Costs a little more than some others, but is very fast,and color prints are excellent. Ink tanks are easy to refill, so much more economical than many other makes. Highly satisfied with the product and would recommend it to anyone that wants a quality printer - not just the cheapest on the market! Don't quite understand all the negative comments about Buy.com, as order handling and shipping was very good in my case.

    5 of 5 Great photos! Very fast printing. Wednesday, November 28, 2007
    Alan V. from Upstate, NY  
    I finally did it. I have been researching printers waaay too long. I really wanted the Pro 9000 but just couldn't justify the $400+. I am very satisfied with this purchase. I have framed two photos and they look photo lab quality. Resolution is outstanding, colors are realistic(I used Canon gloss paper). This is a keeper.
