5 of 5 Excellent Buy! Friday, September 19, 2008
GG from Los Alamos, NM  

I researched scanner-copiers through CR first. Got the best deal and received it oh so quickly. This is the best copier I've owned by far. A home or small business must!

Nancy from St. Augustine, FL  
I purchased this printer based on the Consumer Reports review. It was easy to connect to my printer and has good quality print. I would highly recommend it.

5 of 5 Great value for the $$$ Wednesday, June 18, 2008
Eastwood from Chicago, IL  
I've been wanting to get a Photo printer for some time now, and, luckily, I found this one. For the cost, I think it's pretty damn good. It prints much faster and looks way better than I expected (can't wait to upgrade). The only con I have is that when I hooked up my digital camera to the printer and printed directly from it, the photo was horrible. Now, it could've been my digital camera, or even the regular paper I used, so I'm not letting it knock down my ratings for this item. Excellent purchase.

5 of 5 Canon MP520 met my needs Thursday, May 01, 2008
dzalar from Naperville, IL  
This is my first Canon Printer and first all-in-one. It was easy to set up and while I haven't tried all of the functions, it has so far been very good as a printer and copier and appears to be very intuitive in operations. I've been a historical HP printer person but the price from Buy.com and the rating of the product in Consumers Reports got my attention and so far it's met my needs.

4 of 5 Great printer, no Linux support Wednesday, November 28, 2007
A Customer from Polk City, Florida  
A major drawback to this printer is Cannon's total lack of support for Linux-based operating systems. Come on, Cannon, how much would it cost you to have a programmer write a Linux driver? When a company refuses to support this segment of their customer base, it make you wonder about their commitment to the rest of their customers.
