Summary for Canon PIXMA MP450 All-In-One Photo Printer ...- disappointed and frustrated with this printer!
Notes on Canon PIXMA MP450 All-In-One Photo Printer ...- Bought this about 1 1/2 years ago and wish I didn't. Almost immediately I had problems with the print quality, then it suddenly stopped working altogether. The closest repair facility is over an hour away in another state so I called tech support. The guy was friendly and we tried a bunch of things that didn't work. He sent me a "new" printer for free and I sent mine back in the box the new one came in. Turns out the "new" one didn't work (after a couple hours of trying to figure out what I did wrong I finally realized it wasn't me).
So I returned that one for #2. That one lasted two days and stopped working too! So I gave up. I bought a different brand and won't buy a Canon again. Thought they had a good reputation but there are many other brands out there. Keep looking!

Summary for Canon PIXMA MP450 All-In-One Photo Printer ...- Only lasted through ONE set of print cartridges!
Notes on Canon PIXMA MP450 All-In-One Photo Printer ...- I was excited to get a good deal on this printer through Amazon with my rebate. As a photo printer, I noticed that the colors were yellowish. I used it for scanning photos (which worked very well) and printing documents. It was fast with documents for a while, but right after I put in the second set of cartridges - and we all know how expensive those are - the take up reel quit. And that was it. So now I'm stuck with a huge, broken printer and a full set of cartridges. I know printers are kind of expected to be disposable these days, but this was ridiculous.
I have an older HP PSC 2355 that I use for my digital scrapbook pages. I have literally printed several hundred full color borderless color pages on this thing. The prints are beautiful - colors gorgeous - and I have probably run 10 sets of cartridges through it. It's still going strong.
I am highly disappointed in this Canon. Will never buy one again.

Summary for Canon PIXMA MP450 All-In-One Photo Printer ...- I love my Pixma MP450
Notes on Canon PIXMA MP450 All-In-One Photo Printer ...- Pros:
1. I bought at a local store,with discounts I paid, $70.00. Loved the price.
2. The software that came with my printer/scanner/copier is top notch.
3. The ink seems to last me for a very long time. The price is close to what all ink for other printers cost. No complaint here. ;)
Cons:
1. Is a bit loud when feeding paper, but I can live with it. I am going to set the quiet mode as soon as finish here.
2. The paper does seem to need straightening up pretty often, but hey that's minor. Would be nice if it held more paper in the tray.
I am very pleased with my MP450. I even bought me an extra one for when this one poops out.
I recommend this unit to anyone that needs a printer that wants to print your own photos. Use the Canon paper and you will get fantastic prints.
