Canon Printer - PIXMA ip1800 review

May 21, 2008

Canon Printer - PIXMA ip1800 review The Canon Pixma ip1800 is a low cost entry-level printer that the sale to a mere 39 pounds, but instead of resolving a cover cream humdrum, Canon has designed an elegant black mirror finish to a case that remains relatively compact (442 x 237 x 152 mm) and weighs 3.3kg.

This is a machine that has been stripped to the absolute essentials. There are only two buttons - on / off and feeding paper - and a USB 2.0 port for connecting to your PC. Curiously, there is even a tray out (so you’ll have to allow enough space for desktop paper ejection), no memory card slots and does not support PictBridge.

You have at least one cover page of rest and a page Sizer which can accommodate from 10 x 15 cm (4 x 6 inches) to A4 borderless photos. Although it is a perfectly repairable printer paper, you certainly get the best reward when creating your photo album.

Once the software instead’re ready to rock. There are only two ink cartridges to install a black cartridge and a fine color that combines three colors. This is where you start to be impressed, as printing technology uses micro-nozzles fire drops of ink as small as 2pl on the page. By the end printhead resolution is 4800 x 1,200, resulting quality is surprisingly good.

The shades of black, both in normal photographic paper and leaves are gray in the face of pure black, but certainly acceptable for processing normal holiday snaps or multi-color documents. The colors are vibrant with a higher degree of clarity and detail, and as cartridges employment Canon ChromaLife100 system, the photos are guaranteed 100 years in a lifetime. Not that it is highly probable that around contest that guarantee, of course.

The Canon Pixma ip1800 is not a slowcoach, managing to deliver a 4 x 6-inch borderless photo in just 70 seconds. Quoted print speeds documents average of 20 ppm mono and 16ppm in color.

The software package includes the excellent Canon Easy-PhotoPrint strain that has one or print multiple images on a wide range of formats and sizes, as well as Easy-LayoutPrint that lets you create your own album, calendar and stickers. There is good news for users of Windows Vista also, as you will not have to download the patch or add-ons to begin. And it is compatible with Mac.
