Canon pixma MP530 —

This printer will blow your mind, if you been using an HP, Brother or Lexmark PRinter lately. The quality of and speed of everyday printing is awesome and the option to print color photos, is well most excellent. Photos are very crisp and look just like store quality thanks to a pigment ink tank and the Candon proprietary enhanced color inks. the printer has five ink tanks including a super sized standard black ink tank.

The printer monitor shows on screen when your ink level and alerts you to when you need to go buy a new one. Further the printer features built-in scanner, fax and multi-feed paper slots. You can even print on both sides of the paper, thanks to the built in Duplexer (ie auto paper flipper). There is a view screen which is 2 line and also offers a low power saver mode.

Printing with this printer for everyday is even more helpfull with the ability to print more than one page of information on one sheet of paper, such as 4 pages on 1 sheet, you can also enlarge and reduce the size of a copy as well as print mulitple copies with one print request.

The printer sells for around $179.00 and comes with a full set of ink tanks( and they are full).
