Canon lives up to it's name!!
We have wanted to get a Canon Pixma and were just waiting for our HP to break & of course it did before the year was up. This Canon is awesome. It prints and copies very fast and images are sharp and clear. Pictures are great too. We are Mac users and Canon is recommended by Apple first. We love it!! 2008-10-24
Canon MX 850 multi-function printer works great
The Canon printer works just fine. No real problems. I can't figure out how to network the printer, but that is not a real issue as I only have two computers and can access the printer from both. Amazon is great! 2008-10-24
Great Printer
I've been using this printer for a couple of weeks now and I just love it. It does a great job when I print photos and I really like that it has 2 places for paper. I can put photo paper in one tray and regular paper in the other. The printer allows me to switch between the two trays for printing. Prior to this I had a very expensive HP that didn't work near as well. 2008-10-24
Canon Pixma MX850: Genius
The Canon Pixma MX850 is greater than the sum of all its parts. I truly didn't expect to be this pleased with an all-in-one, thinking that you have to sacrifice features for the convenience of having it all in one nice package.
It scans, it duplexes, it's wirelessly networked to all the computers in the home/home office (wire it directly to your wireless router, works like a charm). It's brilliant.
The colors are fantastic, its ink economy seems to be great, setup was a bit involved but worthwhile.

Reasonably good printer
Pros: Easy setup, Good quality prints, Good quality scans, Intuitive menus. I have not tried the fax capabilities.
Cons:
1. Does not come with a USB cable and came to know of this only when setting up the printer. This is pathetic, Canon!. You can get them for about $6.00 retail at Amazon.
2. Test printing accepted paper from the top feeder, but subsequent printing would accept paper only from bottom feeder. There is no automatic sensing. Quit some time was wasted figuring that out.
Conclusion: Overall, a very good printer. It's been only two months since I purchased it and this far I am satisfied. I recommend it.
