I have purchased numbers of HP and Epson printers over the years but there is no comparison between them and this Canon printer. I should have bought a Canon years ago The ease of use, printing software and ink consumption are so much better than the...
Canon Pixma iP4500 Photo Inkjet Printer (2171B002) Quick and easy to install, with full instructions from Canon. It was delivered earlier than predicted. The print quality is awesome. I use the printer for my everyday document printing and for printing...
I bought this printer a little over a month ago to replace an 9 year old HP Deskjet printer. I was really sad to see it go, and wondered if the new, less expensive printers could match up to the performance of the older one. After much research I decided...
Easy to set-up and use. The printer is fast and has been flawless so far. Used as a general purpose printer for home PC.. Recommended.....
I would recommend this printer to anyone looking for extremely high quality at a modest price. I am truly amazed at the quality of the photos that it produces, and it is very user friendly. It walks you through the process of printing photos and...
The Pixma iP4500 is a great printer for photos and general home office use. Set-up is a breeze. Having two trays for photo paper and 8-1/2x11 stock paper is a tremendous plus as is the ability to print on both sides of the paper. The photos look every...
My Canon Pixma iP4500 printer is really great! Just plug it in and let it do its thing while initializing and then you are ready to go. I really like the auto on and off feature. Both the text and photo quality are top rate. The price delivered from...
Prints photos amazingly. No complaints whatsoever. Not to buyers: You will need to get a USB cable to use this printer....
This printer turned out to be more than I expected. So far it's the best printer I've ever had for printing and photos. The last two have been Epsons [880 and R200]. The Canon out does both with speed. I would recommend it to...
Installing the software was very tricky, but other than that everything has worked fine. No paper jams or errors so far....
i was looking for a printer that would print duplexing. this one certanly did and much more. excelent print quality and fast. price more than fair. glad i did buy it....
what's to review? Canon printers, so far, are the very best I have ever used. And I have used several from HP, Epson and Lexmark. As far as I am concerned there are none that equal the quality and cost of the Canon printers for home use. The ONLY problem...
This product is what I was waiting for. It nice and what I need for my needs in house jobs. Thank...
It is a color printer only with 9600x2400 resolution. It has 5 individual ink tanks and makes beautiful pictures. You can get CLI-8 compatible ink cartages for the printer at a lower cost. An easy to use printer that does not cost over $100....
I got this to replace my Canon I850 which became junk after I started getting the messages about my surplus ink tank being full. However, that printer had performed flawlessly and had bailed me out of my own mistakes time after time. Quality was always...
I was looking to move away from all-in-ones and simply having a good quality easy to use printer. I didnt install the software package, instead I only installed basic drivers. I use this primarily for printing photographic cd/dvd covers (Jewelboxing)...
I replaced a Canon I850 as it was starting to have print quality problems after many years of good service. The ip4500 is an improvement over all in both picture quality and speed in all printing uses. The only negative is that it's larger than the I850....
Item was received on time and performed perfectly. Being on sale at the time, a very good value. Print quality and speed better than my previous HP printer....
This is my second Canon printer and I've really liked both of them. Good document printing and good photo printing....
I've only printed a few photos with it but they turned out fine. I've used it mostly for general office work and it's fast and prints nicely. Only complaint is that it's pretty big and takes up a lot of desk space....
Shopped around for a good price on this model. I am completely satisfied with it. Not being "savvy" about installing computers and printers, I was able to get it up and running in very little time. The print quality is very good, and it's not noisy....
This is an excellent photo printer. I have printed over 400 Color and Black & White photo's in the past three weeks. Mostly 4x6", but some 8x10's also. I would rate the color and overall quality as Excellent. This unit replaced my Canon i860. The ink...
My wife has run this printer mercilessly and it hasn't missed a beat. Because she uses it so much, I purchased a CISS for it so she won't run out of ink. The best part is that it is about nine times less expensive and it prints exactly like it did with...
After my Epson color printer became junk due to clogged heads (something that is common with Epson and one reason I try to avoid them now) I was having to make due with my Canon Multipass MP730 copier/fax/scanner/printer for photo printing. Now the MP730...
I've only had this printer for one day, but I want to do a review before I forget. I've owned nothing but Canon ink jet printers for the past 6 years--S450, S600 & S750. Those were very good printers and this iP4500 is a good unit too. Colors are...
I purchased this printer so I could print off larger photos (5x7, 8x10) and it worked better than I could imagine. I would recommend using premium photo paper for best results....
Second Canon printer we have owned - this is even better than the first (i850). Simple to connect - everything is automated (lining up print heads etc.). You cannot beat the quality for the price....
I have owned 2 860i Canon printers and they were great, however iP4500 is outstanding in quality. I print 100's of images and they rival all professional prints. You cannot go wrong with this printer....
Like all canon products, great product. Great definition on photo printing for a printer under $100. It has two trays of papper, with makes it great to shift from printing a document to printing pictures. You won't be dissapointed....
I own one, and I've bought half a dozen for clients [I run a computer and photographic services company]. Lovely printing, fast, good job on photos [use Canon paper and inks], economical [for a small inkjet]. One gotcha: software/driver installation may...
First, let me say that I'm using both the HG10 and the iP4500 printer within an All-Mac environment (10.5.) I was ecstatic about the hi-def movie results from my HG10 camcorder. But the results from printing the photos from my HG10 to my new iP4500...
I used a Pixma iP4000 printer and was satisfied with it until it broke down about 2 1/2 years after I bought it. I have just purchased the iP4500. Essentially it about the same as the iP4000 and am quite satisfied with it. It seems to be faster than the...
Replaced this printer with a not-so-working-right iP5000. Just as good, and a better price than I paid for the other printer. I highly recommend this printer. Has the best printing resolution out on the market....
Printer has worked fine so far - fast printing, great quality text and photos, lots of printing options available. I've yet to try all its bells and whistles, but have no doubt they'll all work as advertised. And the price was...
I have a 7.1 megapixels camera and have taken many photos. I have started to scrapbook and needed a good photo printer but wanted versatility to print other things. This prints excellent copies of my photos, the images are clean and clear. The only...
I bought a model 4300 about 8 months ago. I am pleased with the performance of this printer. It is easy to use. It makes sharp documents and good photo prints. I feel the ink cartdriges last a long time. When I needed to replace my wife's printer,...
Worked perfectly right out of the box. Very fast and does a wonderful job....
This is an outstanding printer. Switched over from a color laser that was died and have not been disappointed. Setup was easy and fast. Printer performs as advertised. Auto duplexing lets you print on both sides of a sheet of paper, saving trees and...
I don't normally write a notes to people about a product but I just have to tell you all about my new Photo Printer. After months of research and reading reviews and product testing etc. I settled on a new Canon Pixma iP4500. After printing Two photos I...
I had been designated to research and choose a printer for our Church Library. This iP4500 was highly recommended on several sites, including Canon. My Canon printer at home has amazed me for years! The price, came up as a 'special' at Amazon, right in...
have had the printer for a few weeks now, it works great and prints great, but it will not print directly on CD/DVD discs directly. canon support even suggested it is best not to print on the paper labels. did not say never do it, just suggests not to....
Love the new printer. Easy to install. Prints beautifully. Fits nicely on lower shelf. Bottom paper feed permits storing open pack on top of printer for convenient paper reload....
So far, its been everything good the review said it was. The photo print quality is superb. I've had half a dozen Epson printers in the last ten years, but decided it was time to try something else. If the Canon's ink use and cost matches the rest of...
This is our second Canon. We ruined the first one (ip3500) our fault. 1. This printer is capable of printing directly on CD's. Go to ebay & do a search for Canon CD Tray. There is guy there (for years now) that has the trays, a link to instructions for...
This is the first photo printer I've ever purchased, and so far I've been amazed with the quality. For the money, I don't think you can get any better. I will buy more Canon products in the...
This is my second Canon printer. I had a Canon I900D which was a great printer but alas it was very slow. The IP4500 has two paper sources, one for copy paper and one for photo paper. This is a great plus. All you have to do to change sources is press 1...
I owned Canon ip6600D, ip6700D and they were very good and now this fantastic printer. It prints gorgeous photos and good text and graphics. I use it as my primary printer for everyday use printing photos, text, graphics and everything. My only complaint...
I got this printer for Christmas and I'm loving it! I am amazed at how fast it can spit out smaller prints. I've yet to print anything bigger than 5x7 but nonetheless I am extremely satisfied so far. This printer is great, it looks very nice when its all...
Great photo printer. I don't see the difference without the photo cyan and photo magenta inks my old Canon S900 had. Very fast text and photo print speed. The pigment black ink drys a little slower than using the dye based ink, but excellent quality....
This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a review and I have bought probably 75-100 items on amazon.com over the years. This is a great printer. I researched for several days, read the non-profit consumer reviews, etc. I finally decided on...
