NOT built to last1
Print quality is fine, but the printer died within one year of use. It wasn't over-used. It's just not built to last.

Dies soon after 1 year warranty2
I am frustrated with this printer and many others. They seem to die on me soon after the 1 year warranty is past. Printer says yellow ink tank is out when, in fact, it is full, and it's the second new tank I've tried. Every print job stalls: I have to open the cover, reset the tank and start again. I read online that soon it will die completely. Customer service suggests taking it for diagnostic review at unknown cost--closest place is 1 hour drive. And then to replace the print head would be almost as much as a new printer. This is apparently a common problem.

Quality of prints was very good but I am so annoyed with the planned obsolescence on these products, especially considering how expensive it has been to keep replenishing ink tanks.

Works for me!5
I've had this printer for over a year now and have had no problems with it at all. Because I like to print things other than a standard size (envelopes, cards, etc.), I wanted a straight paper feed for less jamming and I have not had one jam in all this time. The colors are vivid, especially photos. When I print a flyer or photograph on glossy paper, it truly looks professional. If I spray it with a fixative, it lasts forever. I have not had any issues with the ink tanks but I do search the web for the cheapest prices, as long as it is actually Canon. Easy to set up, pretty quick printing of photos or text, but I am a dinosaur from the printer stone age so my viewpoint may be skewed. It also prints quietly and has cleverly designed input and output trays. I have not used the auxiliary lower paper tray very much at all but I'm glad it's there. I do notice a slight pinkness to black and white photos but it might be my software - it is less noticeable with Elements than with Digital Image. The same photos have a green cast at Walmart. I would buy this printer again if it broke tomorrow.
