as already described on the Internet more than once, the printer is noisy, it needs minutes long start-up time, until he finally prints. The amount of ink is getting smaller, it uses more ink for flushing as the actual printing. I have the Canon iP 3000, the IP 4000, the iP4600, the iP was introduced 4700 and now the iP 7250 bought because I want to print on CDs and DVDs but since the chip can forget this printer from above reasons.
Itis a tragedy that no device is made with the customer requests.
