Good printer but not great on ink or with Windows Vista July 5, 2010 Eugene Hemrick The Canon MP600 is a printer I've owned for maybe a year and a half now. It's a reliable printer that makes good printouts but is not without its flaws
Pros:
- Good print quality, both black and white and color
- Excellent scanner quality as well
- Very reliable so far
Cons:
- Windows Vista has trouble recognizing unit initially, need to play with drivers a bit to scan properly
- Ink is expensive. You can buy generic chipped ink from Amazon but then color printing quality suffers
- Color ink goes fast! Black a bit better with maybe 80-100 printouts per larger cartridge
- Bulky! Check the specs but this will take up some desk space
Overall a good printer. There's probably something better out there for the price but as mine still works fine I'll let it run its course.
Money Pit June 13, 2010 Nylox (Kansas City, MO) I was initially happy with this printer. I paid a few more dollars expecting the payback in the cheaper ink tanks vs the ink cartridges found in a lot of the cheaper printers. It had all of the features I was looking for in a home use printer and I had high hopes that I would get my hard earned moneys worth out of it. It put out pretty decent print quality and the scanner did it's job. The included software was very easy to use and works very well. Now for the not so good part:
Well, to make a log story short, one minor paper jam rendered the print head useless. The printer gives an error of "The wrong print head is installed, please install the correct print head". (This is the original print head that came with the unit). Of course I went through all of the usual steps of removing the ink tanks and pulling out the print head to check for contamination or damage. The print head looks perfect and clean yet still gives an error that it is the wrong print head. The paper jam cleared itself out after cycling power and it could hardly be called a serious jam as only the corner of the page was bent up and there wasn't even a hint of a tear. Oh yes, before any smart comments are made I have never refilled or used after market ink. It has never been run out of ink either. I learned that lesson a couple of printers ago. It has always been genuine Canon ink. Did it's internal timer run out Canon? This printer hasn't seen a lot of use yet the print head is dead already with less than 1000 sheets? I've heard stories about these kind of tactics. I have always thought it was the usual disgruntled customer trying to find a reason to give a bad review and stretching for a reason to dislike or badmouth a company. Now I'm believing that there may be something to this as this is the 2nd Canon printer that has failed with very little use. Both printers have lasted just over 2 years before the print heads failed with very little printing. Is this just a coincidence? It's funny that the print head is priced so high for the MP600 yet it does exactly the same thing that almost all inkjet printer cartridges do in the higher priced inks since the print head is built into those cartridges. Was it worth paying the extra for the printer so I could by cheaper ink tanks and replace them individually? NO!
Now here's the kicker, you can't even use the scanner when this happens. That's right kiddies, this thing is rendered completely useless and I can't even scan a document and send it to another "working" printer. After reading similar complaints it turns out that the MP600 is rendered useless when one of the ink tanks runs out too. Now what does Ink have to do with scanning Canon? Shame on you. Multifunction inkjet manufacturers are literally raping the public with these tactics and Canon isn't the only manufacturer playing these kind of games.
So here I am with a decision to make. Do I spend another $75 + shipping on a print head just so I can use the spare Canon Ink tanks I have sitting in my desk. Do I chuck this thing in the driveway and see what 35" tires will do to it? Or do I just bite the bullet and buy a laser printer so I won't have to deal with these issues any longer. (One toner lasts 2500 sheets and costs $70) Laser printers are built much better and last a very long time although the upfront cost is a bit more. After putting all of the figures together with the original purchase price, ink used, and a new print head this wonderful piece of technology "MP600" would have cost upwards of $650 total invested. I have put less than 1000 sheets through it so this thing has basically cost me almost $.07 for each page I have printed. Most of which have just been black and white text documents. I have only printed maybe 20 pictures total with this printer during it's short life span. I can have photographs printed professionally for about $.07 each at the local wholesale club so what does this say about this money pit of a printer.
To make a long story short, stay away from this printer and if you do your homework you'll find that inkjet printers in general are total money pits that will end up costing a fortune in the long run!
If you do find one with cheap ink chances are that the printer will break down before you ever get your dollars worth from it. There is one manufacturer that claims cheap ink (I'll let you figure out which one but they are known for photo paper) but it turns out that you have to print over 5000 pages before you'll ever see a break even point. Good luck getting an inkjet printer to last that long and if it does it will most likely break down just as soon as you fill it up with new ink or buy spare cartridges.
The days of throwing/giving away your cheap inkjet printer and just buying another one rather than buying ink are over too. The new printers come with barely enough ink to get you by and force you to buy their expensive ink almost immediately. Granted even new laser jet printers will come with a "low yield" toner but you'll definitely be better off in the long run.
Bottom line: Stay away from these printers unless you feel the absolute need to print in color!
defective product ... January 19, 2010 ---- (Los Angeles, CA United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As many other reviewers pointed out the printer will stop working after a while. I bought it about 2 years ago and used it very lightly (only changed the black cartridge once in 2 years) and it stopped working. The display screen shows an error (paper jam of some sort) even though there are no jams. This is a known defect by Canon but they will not fix it. I had to dump the piece of crap in the garbage.
Works great! December 10, 2009 Kenneth Martin (Rapid City, SD United States) I have had this printer for quite some time now and I can't find any major flaws. It prints quickly and quietly. The photo quality is excellent. I have scanned over 1000 photos and have been very happy with the scans. The ink is somewhat expensive, but there are generic alternatives out there. I don't think anyone can beat Canon quality. Best multifunction printer I have ever purchased.
worst printer ever November 12, 2009 Claudio Calle (usa) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i bought this printer couple years ago
i barely used it
couple of months ago i tried to turn it on
and it wouldn't work
after i unplugged it couple of times it finally turn on
but the printer never worked
it showed on the screen that there was an error
i called canon to see if they could help me but they told me that the error that i was getting it was because some printers came out with some defects and that i had to return it to them if i wanted to get it fixed but since my warranty had spire i had to pay
i mentioned that if it was a manufactured defect they should fix it but they refused
it was almost brand new and a had to throw it in the trash
i read some info online about it and i realize i wasn't the only one having this problem
my advice is buy anything but canon it's the worst printer
unless you want to throw your money in the trash the way i did
