I have had this printer (the 3rd Cannon IP I have had) for about a month and a half and so far it is all that I could expect of it. It prints great and the ink cartridges are reasonable. The other 2 printers are still in service and working fine. I...
I was somewhat surprised at the speed and accuracy of the Canon 4500 printer compared to my previous printer, an Epson Stylus 760. The Epson was new in 2000 and did last a long time before failing. My hopes are that the Canon will follow its quality...
We replaced our Canon S900, which never made good photos, and finally stopped functioning (possibly due to using non-Canon ink cartridges?) with the Canon PIXMA iP4500. Our original concern with going w/ another Canon printer was quickly replaced with...
I've been using Cannon printers for years and have been very satisfied. For basic printing they're all the same except Cannon has always used separate ink tanks for each color. Not to mention they are some of the least expensive cartridges on the market....
A little faster than previous canon. Nice ability to pull from paper cartridge under printer and to print double-sided....
This printer is rather large but it can be all closed up which is great for saving a little space and to keep dust and animal fur out of the internals. It is fast, relatively quiet, and duplex printing is very handy for saving paper without the hassle...
First, the negatives: this printer takes up a lot of desk space. With the front paper tray extended, its about 23" front to back. The front paper tray seems to be a flimsy plastic. Don't know how it would face up to a sideways blow. The software does not...
I had emailed and asked Canon many times to allow user refill the ink. They did not respond to that. This printer in some way allowing the ink being refilled. You still have to void the warranty of the printer head. After that, it will allow most the...
I mostly use the printer for work documents, and the duplex feature is really useful. It's fast when not duplexing, but the slower speed for duplexing is worth it to save paper. The printer set-up quickly on two computers with difference operating...
Canon Pixma iP4500 Photo Inkjet Printer (2171B002) I've gone through EPSON and HP printers and now use a Canon. This printer comes with all you need EXCEPT: the USB printer cable???!?!?? The CANON company NEEDS to include the USB printer cable. It...
The printer was very easy to set up and start using. It's quiet and versatile, with two paper feed modes that make it easy to go from paper to heavier stock. Photo printing is very good, and the print cartridges are easy to load. For the price, I can't...
We looked around a lot at the big box stores. They only wanted to sell more expensive printers that also came with a scanner and a copier. My wife scrapbooks extensively and we already own a scanner which also doubles as a copier. This one is simple,...
Quality of print for a low-priced printer is quite good. It takes a bit of time to get started, but print speed is good once it starts. Setup was a breeze....
I bought this printer to replace a huge/expensive laser printer I bought 5 years ago that stopped working. I am please with the color printing and printing pictures. The black however, seems light to me compared to my previous printer. Overall, I am...
If you are going to buy this printer its cheaper at newegg by about 10 bucks and free shipping unitl the end of march, after that it reverts to Amazons-sales price of around 99 bucks. Amazon you should lower your price....
I have had several Canon printers in the past and each one is better than the other. Photos come out great from my scanner or digital camera in either 4x6 or up to 8x10. Print speed is fairly fast in either color or B&W. Only downfall is no usb cable...
Canon labels the Pixma iP4500 as a premium photo and document printer, and when I bought it in early January my main purchasing criteria was high quality photo prints and the ability to print on DVDs and CDs. The printer itself looks tremendously stylish....
My new Canon iP4500 printer works great -- with the Canon software that accompanies their product. It fails miserably, however, with my Photoshop CS2 software. My third print with the Canon iP4500 displayed a series of parallel lines across the surface....
I've always been an epson printer fan until my Epson c84 clogged it's print head, thus ruining the printer. (I know there are ways to take the printer apart and clean out the nozzles, but who has the time for that?)I like the fact that I can replace the...
Bottom line: for what it costs now, great product. Dependable fast prints, simple profile and easy to use. Great buy....
Great printer, nice color, nice speed. The two printer trays are an added bonus along with the duplex features. I could not find any reviews on this printer before I purchased and all other previous models seemed to have been sold out or discontinued,...
I ordered this printer after researching printers using Consumer Reports...Although they did not review this model,(perhaps it was too new)I found that they really liked a previous model,that I could no longer get (naturally). I checked as many other...
This is my second Canon printer and is a replacement for my 5 year old i960 which I absolutely loved. The print head started to go and I do a lot of fine detail printing so I had to replace it. I chose the ip4500 for a few reasons, One was because it...

Ok, so this is a nice printer. My biggest beef is that it doesn't come with a tray to print CDs and DVDs which is why I purchased the printer in the first place. It was another $22.50 through a reseller on eBay. Someone mentioned that the earlier...

I've only had this printer for a few days. It's a replacement for a Canon Pixma ip3000 that failed after 3.5 years. Given the similarity between the models, I decided to "upgrade" to an ip4500 instead of going for the lower priced ip3500. Both are so...
Make sure you have your own USB cable, cuz it doesn't come with one. It's pretty big for not being a 3-in-1 printer. The instructions for quick start-up aren't great: One instruction says, "Make sure printer power is off before proceeding," and then...
This printer does a excellent job on any type of prints from 4"x6" to matte 8.5"x11". I use Canon paper and inks and the pictures look as though they came out of a photo lab. Colors are very good and you have extensive control over color printing...
I have been very pleased with this printer. My old printer was a HP722C which was 8 years old. I had no problems with the setup other than there was one place the instructions were not very plain on just what they wished me to do next. However, I just...
I am very satisfied with the iP4500 EXCEPT for the Auto Power feature. The Auto Power feature works as advertised, BUT with Auto Power enabled (in the printer's driver), I experience severe performace problems trying to read from other USB devices. With...
This is a good printer. However, it does not come with it's own driver. You have to go back to canon and download a driver for it. This is a good product with a good price and you would think that canon would include the driver with the CD....
I had an IP4300 for 18 months and printed almost 10,000 double-sided color pages and finally ran it into the ground. I just bought the IP4500 and like it as much as I enjoyed my IP4300. The best part is the translucent ink cartridges, which I can...
I've only had this for a few weeks, but so far am happy with this printer. Printing is excellent quality and NO paper jams, which has been a big problem with my last 2 printers. Pictures are excellent quality. Printer is quiet....
I previously had a Canon iP printer and the quality of the prints was excellent so when I went to buy a new printer that was my top priority. After talking to Canon a couple of time & adjusting the parameters, I finally am getting those quality prints...
It prints Very well. Lets you know when on ink your low. Pitchers come out very nice also....
This is a nice home printer that prints good color maps etc. (Of course the ink is a little expensive, but that is normal these days.) These Canon printers seem to clog less than Epson when you use them infrequently....
I love the thing. It's print clarity is better than I expected, pictures turn out great though I seldom use it for that. I think it's a great buy....
