I purchased the Pixma MP240. After printing no more than 1,000 copies the printer's paper feeding system stopped working. Since the warranty is only 90 days, I am just out of my money. This means those copies were very expensive since I now have to purchase another printer. Canon wants me to consider purchasing from their Loyalty Program but I can't see having to purchase a new printer every 1,000 copies. I would not recommend this copier to anyone. Customer service was very polite when they told me I'd just have to purchase a new printer. It's the product that apparently cannot hold up to even minimal work loads.

If you like printing things then don't buy this printer. It is garbage. The printer jams 20 times for every one page that prints, so it takes about an hour to print a 5 page document. Once I get a new printer, this thing will go out the window.

Pros: reliable, Compact Design, Easy Setup, durable, Low Ink Consumption, Lightweight/Portable, Sharp Tones & Colors, fast print speed, easy to use, well laid out controls, overall design is very sleek
Simply put, this is a very good printer for the money. Lots of nice features in the software, the orignial cartridge lasted longer than the other printers I have owned. It has seperate cartridges for color and black (nice) or you can only install only black if you so wish. The printing is quieter than most. The best, the print quality is great. Just loves it.

I've gone through 2 black ink cartridges for far less pages than my old printer.
Bought this printer to replace the high cost of Ink cartridges for my old printer, and that my old desktop was starting to fail more. Needed printer for my laptops.

This printer does great just printing out an e-mail, etc. I bought this basically to upload designs and save. Nowhere in the pamphlet I received with the printer does it tell you how to scan and save a document to your computer. No specifics given.....I prefer simplicity....and this printer is anything but simple and easy to operate. I give it a Zero rating.

Cons: Heavy/Bulky
price was reasonable, functions very well, prints very well. i was very satisfied with this printer. i did have trouble with the sheets getting stuck once, but it was because i didn't have enough sheets in. other than that i've never had any problem using this and the ink lasts a while: i'm a college student so i print a lot of documents... even after it said it was low on ink, the printer lasted for another month after the warning. not sure how well it prints photos tho, never tried it.

This is a great printer for the price. The color and graphics are comparable to my color laser. Of course this means high ink use, but still a good value!

Cannon products are easy to setup and the quality of printed pictures surpass other printers. This printer is easy to use. I like that you can scan and print in color or black . This is the third Cannon printer I have puchased. I am upgrading from another older printer.

Pros: Compact Design, Lightweight/Portable, Easy Setup, easy to use, fast print speed, reliable, Sharp Tones & Colors, dont know ink consumption
Cons: not hardened construction but not weak!, dont know ink consumption
I have only been using this printer the last few days, but it is great. All my prints have been beautiful, my pictures turned out outstanding. The only thing I havn't tried is the scanner but with the progress of the way everything else has been going, Im not worried. The only thing I would have liked better would have been if it had the memory card ports! And a thing i dont know is how it is with ink, which i will update later. Its a great deal...

Cons: Slow Print Speed, High Ink Consumption, loud when it prints
I bought this printer because my old one was too slow. I was guaranteed this would be faster. Well it's not. It's too slow and it's very loud. Once I hit print, it takes about 15 seconds for it to set itself up before it prints one piece of paper. It does this setup thing every time I print something. The time of the actual printing is slow too. The print quality is good, but it seems to go through the ink quickly. I did try to return it, but I waited too long, so now I'm stuck with it.
