FEATURED REVIEW
Wish I had found my MX700 sooner!!
Date: July 30, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, Lightweight/Portable, durable, Easy Setup, easy to use, fast print speed, Low Ink Consumption, reliable, Sharp Tones & Colors, i know that when i turn it on it will work fine Cons: no cons for this machine
My previous photo printer, that I had for 12 years, I thought was the best ever, until I bought my MX700. I didn't really want a multifunction machine, but in looking at many different products and reading tons of reviews, I decided that this machine was the top of the line and bought it. I fell in love the first day, when I hooked it up and installed the software. Probably the easiest hook up and install job that I have ever done.
Canon outdid themselves with this machine. Very user friendly, easy to follow instructions for each use, and the photos quality come out the best that I have seen. Very efficient use of ink. I can print 75+ full sheets of 8.5 X 11"photos before I have to think about replacing an ink tank. The ink tanks are not expensive, and compared to my last printer they are about one third the price. Price for ink cartridges and amount of use from them is one of the factors that helped me make the MX700 my choice. Very quiet when printing, and doesn't shake the computer table and desk.
I didn't think that I would use the other functions but little, if at all, but I found that I had a use for every function, and each easy to use. The stand alone ability of the MX700 makes it even more useful for me. Nice to have camera memory chip ports on the MX700.
I convinced my older sister and brother what a wonderful machine this, and they have each purchased one for themselves. They bought theirs a year after I purchased mine, so they got the benefits of a later version of the same machine.
I speak very highly to friends and acquaintances about my MX700, and recommend it to them. I explain to them the advantages of having a quality piece of equipment, over a low end machine.
Thanks Canon!!

Dont' Go There
Date: November 9, 2009
Cons: Large Footprint, Slow Print Speed, unreliable, Dull Tones & Colors, very poor print quality, grainy off-color scan quality, fax comes on when phone rings
My MX-700 never gave what I consider to be Canon quality service. From the beginning the print colors were inaccurate and dull, the scan quality was unacceptable and using the advanced scanning options didn't produce any significant improvement. The fax came on when the phone rang for regular phone calls. A definite pain. I returned the unit for a refund.

I bought this All-in-one primarily for Scanning. I have a laser printer for my daily printing unless I need something in color. Today I have a very important report due in acanning and the machine won't let me scan because it says it's out of black ink. So I call around town, finaly find someone with a black cartridge and now it says the yellow cartride MAY be out of ink and has again locked up the machine. What does scanning have to do with ink?

Solid Multifunction Printer
Date: October 4, 2009
Pros: Easy Setup, easy to use, Low Ink Consumption, reliable, ethernet, adf Cons: Large Footprint, slow first page
I purchased the MX700 almost 2 years ago. I wanted to be able scan, fax, and print documents and photos. It also had "straight through" paper path which is required for working with heavier papers such card stock and good photo paper. It was critical the whole family could share it via ethernet since Windows print sharing requires the "host" computer to be up and running. The ADF allowed me to use it as reliable fax machine. The latest BIOS update fixed the problem with it grabbing and holding the line. Based on the reviews online (e.g. PC Mag), it had the lowest ink cost per page and does seem to be reasonable in its consumption. I prefer the approach of replacing ink tanks rather than making cartridges with disposable ink jets. It allows the vendor to engineer in better quality in each head (2 picoliter was the smallest drop at the time) . In general, if you pay for the printer, the consumables will be less expensive (nothing is ever free).
I have also been pleased with its capacity for photos including being able scan 4 - 4 x 6 photos in single scan and then have the software break them each into individual photos. The scanning and faxing can also be done via network which a nice feature. The scanning software is not high end, but it does get the job done. You also can take items directly to PDF files which I use for historical records.
The only negatives are minor. It can ocaisionally jam although it has only required removing the jammed page and restarting the printer. It also will occaisionally go into a "think mode" where it seems to play with the first sheet of paper. My assumption is this is the printer aligning its heads and the piece of paper from the sheet feeder. It generally only occurs when it is the first printout of the hour and only on the first page regardless of the length of the document.
My family has used the printer to make invitations, photos, greeting cards, professional presentations, and print out large (>50) page reports. Overall, it has worked extremely well and I'm pleased with the printer. At this point, I would simply replace it with another similar Canon printer should it fail.

GREAT PRINTER!
Date: October 3, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, durable, Easy Setup, easy to use, fast print speed, reliable, Sharp Tones & Colors
I have owned this printer for almost nine months. I bought it after doing extensive on-line research.
All of the print, scan, copy and fax function work great.
Text is clear, photos are sharp, even on plain paper.
Ink consumption appears mormal to me. If you set the "print quality" to Standard or even Fast you get very acceptable density> I print everything for self use on "Fast".
No complaints here at all.

The scanner is great, but the price of the ink cartaiges are so expensive and they have a rather low amount of ink, a lot dried up inside the plastic packet. although the printer-sccanner is cheap for the quality it shows. I do recomend that.

GREAT APPEARANCE. HOWEVER, CONSTANT PAPER JAMS. CONSTANT CLEANING OF INK HEAD. HEAVY INK CONSUMPTION. LOOK ELSEWHERE IF YOU WANT A HASSLE FREE PRINTER/FAX. A VERY BIG HEADACHE.

I had been expecting a multi-function printer to be somewhat lacking in quality, but the first time I tried photo printing on this machine I was blown away. By far the best quality I have had from an inkjet printer. I use all the features, and things like the ability to scan a bunch of pages into a PDF are just great. I have it plugged directly into my router now instead of tied to a PC which is very useful. Had a problem with the fax cutting in when I was on the phone but quickly found the firmware patch which solved this. Very satisfied.

Great Christmas Present
Date: July 31, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, Lightweight/Portable, Easy Setup, easy to use, fast print speed Cons: difficult fax setup
I wanted to wait a while to write a review so that I had time to actually use the product. I am a student at a local university and have had no problem with my printer to date. I have gone through 1000 pieces of paper and am now just replacing the color ink as well as the black and white. I have used all the other features and have had no difficulties except for getting the fax and my phone to work. But I was told by my phone provider that it is a problem on their end with compatibility (I have cable phone). Other then that I am glad I asked for this model for Christmas and look forward to getting much more use out of it.

Excellent product
Date: June 15, 2009
Pros: durable, Easy Setup, easy to use, fast print speed, reliable, Sharp Tones & Colors Cons: Heavy/Bulky, High Ink Consumption
This is the second Canon printer I've bought and I have nothing but positive things to say about it...except two things: The ink runs out fairly quickly and the refill cartridges are quite expensive. Other than that, it is a very high quality printer with a lot of features that are easy to understand the use of.

The best networked all in one
Date: June 10, 2009
Pros: Compact Design, Easy Setup, easy to use, reliable, networked
I have installed two of these for family and they love them. A friend installed one and also likes it. It jut works over the network and that is great for the typical home with laptops and wifi. It should come with a USB cable that is required for the initial setup.

I will only buy Canon Printers and the MX700 is a great printer, I've owned 3 canon printers and work them to death. The only reason why I upgraded, Ink was hard to find.

Poor design, poor support
Date: May 11, 2009
Pros: durable, easy to use, fast print speed, reliable Cons: Large Footprint, Difficult to use, High Ink Consumption
The MX700 does a good job of printing, faxing and copying. NO problems there. My real complaints have to do with its design, its operating expenses, and its lack of support.
The major design flaw is that all offsize paper (such as envelopes) must be loaded thru the feed slot in the back of the machine. To save space, my printer is on a shelf over my desk, five feet off the floor, against the wall. I cannot see how to load envelopes without crawling on my desk on my knees and trying to see over the top of the machine. So I never use it to print anything other than 8.5x11.
Next problem, the ink cartidges are tiny, so they must be rreplaced often, and very expensive.
Finally, I am trying for the first time to scan doucments into my computer, but Canon provides no support at all. The paper manual has one page on scanning photos, nothing on scanning documents. The application itself (the window that opens when you click on Canon Printer)is equally useless as it contains only printer options and information, nothing on scanning documents. I haven't found anything on their website either.

Good Replacement Printer
Date: May 8, 2009
Pros: fast print speed, Sharp Tones & Colors, cheap ink
The color print speed is relatively fast, even with full color copies. This printer lets you print when it thinks the ink is gone. These cartridges are very easy to refill.
This printer often needs "mental preparation" when you first turn it on and print. It will make a few noises, move the print head back and forth a few times, then print/copy.
The software works well with fast (3GHz) and slow (400MHz) computers running Windows XP. I have not tried Vista because it needs 2GB of RAM.
When using the LAN, you need to do it in 3 steps.
1:When you get to choose the connection type pick the last one and cancel the part when it tries to find the LAN connected printer because it won't find the printer.
2:Go to printers/faxes and choose add a printer. Select local printer and uncheck the auto detect. Choose create a new port and select "Canon BJNP". Then type the IP address. When the setup asks if you would like to override the current driver choose yes. If you choose no, the setup won't work.
3: Go back to the canon CD and navigate to CanonCD\Win\Lan\English\Setup.exe This is the setup you canceled in step 1. Now, it should find your printer. Choose it and all the scanning/printing will now work.

Told black ink is low. Changed out half full cartridge. Tried to print black and white page and refused to print because red is getting low. Can't override this when color is not needed.
