I dru (e) ck one eye to

after 6 years, my old Canon printer has adopted, which was always operated with foreign cartridges. These were at the end but then his "death".

Can go well, but it does not have ... a new was needed.

Criteria:

Occasional use, mainly black and white documents, but sometimes color and one or the other photo. 'm Rather a small user, but you need something like that nowadays. Budget from 50 - 100 Euro. Mac compatible.

So far I have good experience with Canon and made for my needs enough.

What has struck me so far ??

Positives:

- Compact housing and does not weigh much (yes we transported rare but worth mentioning)
- Has many features for the price, including wireless internet, control over the cell phone, duplex printing! etc.
- The menu on the screen is well-structured and readable, and extensively in his ways .... user friendly it can be said
- - The controls are to be understood quickly and whoever Canon had previously found an even faster
- Print speed is good, especially for documents that I have not yet tested Photos
- Scans very good, it did with several templates tried and it was always a wonderful result
- Price is reasonable
- Energy saving mode is handy
- Discreet LEDs
- Super device as a standalone
- Replacement of the cartridge is very easy
- Is prepared for all possible types of connection

Negatives:

- The processing is mediocre, what one notices especially in the moving parts
- Why is there no paper cassette ??
- So 3 color cartridges are ne controversy, now I finds not so great, that there may be other opinions prevail
- No Leisetreter whether scanning or printing, often makes this device also "the sounds" without any jobs
- WLAN can not be turned off ... why ???

Printing costs and usage, I can not judge, but according to various magazines seem to be mediocre. But the small user tuts as hurt less.

So as my title says ... I turn a blind eye to. Give more so 4 Stars (3.5 is not so). Especially with the volume and the lack of cassette are already for me hard criticisms. Why do I but keep him? I like to orient to trade magazines and there is noticed again. In addition, duplex printing is not a foregone conclusion, and definitely a very positive feature! With a small budget, one tries to get the best and that I hereby. The pluses have just convinced me. Sound for home users.

Hope I could help.
