Canon iP4600 Inkjet Photo Printer (2909B002) Reviews
This printer is very much ok. This is actually very good considering most of the printers on the market today suck beyond my ability to describe. Not less than an hour ago, I smashed my Canon MP620 since I was sick of it's malfunctioning BS. I only bought this printer because I have another one just like it in the kids room that has not screwed up for a while. Actually, I wanted to buy an HP but they seem to not have recovered from Carly Fiorina's attempt to run the company into the ground (if you vote for her you are an idiot). The main thing this printer has going for it is that it is not multi-functional (i.e. there is no scanner). It is sad when you have to look high and low to find a product that does NOT include a bunch of crap you did not ask for. If you buy a multi-dsyfunctional printer...you deserve what you get. As such, I deserved the hell I went through with the MP620. As for this printer, it is...meh...ok, which is about the best review I can give a printer these days.
I owned the ip3000 and was very happy with it. The 4600 on the other hand I find to be a terribly defective product. Key failures of this product:
1. An excessive long time before printing the first page (also slow on/off)
2. Severe problems with "intelligently" selecting the paper source
3. Defective bottom paper tray which has difficulty delivering paper
4. A "chipped" ink cartridge to prevent cheap no-name replacements
The ip3000 had none of these problems and was an excellent all-purpose printer. The 4600 has management to ruin every reason I wanted to use the series of printer.
This printer here my friends, is the best printer I've had in a while. The features are good, not the greatest, but it's compact and fast. Not to mention, the print quality is amazing for both Photos and documents. It doesn't have a scanner, like I said, it doesn't have the features of a lot of printers on the market... This thing is just here to get the job done. One thing I love about it is the paper tray, It can be on the bottom of the printer or in the classic position of most printers. (Please see picture of the printer)
Excellent quality for the price. Only downside is that there is no auto power on and off feature, like older model.
I had the Canon Pixma iP4200 -- worked fine until the print heads failed and regardless of maintenance routines, photos printed with horizontal lines. Canon-branded ink cartridges for the 4200 had been costing me $12 to $14 each for the colors and small black tank.
Now, I have the Canon Pixma iP4600 -- also working fine, but............
The ink cartridges hold 27% LESS INK, and you guessed it! They COST THE SAME as the 4200 cartridges!
The 4200 cartridges held 26 milliliters; the 4600 cartridges hold 19 milliliters. I don't even want to think about how much I'm going to be paying for ink every couple months.
Furthermore, the software begins prompting you to replace the cartridges LONG before they are empty, and there is no way to disable this almost constant warning.
Get some ethics, Canon!
