Canon PIXMA iP4000 Camera Review

Quote from the review:

“The breadbin-shaped PIXMA iP4000 is Canon’s latest A4 inkjet printer designed for all-round usage. Besides the attractive grey-and-silver enclosure, the printer uses Canon’s ContrastPLUS technology – a five tank ink system that includes an additional dye-based black ink for sharper contrast. It also sports a tiny 2-picolitre ink droplet size, which helps it to output good looking prints on high-quality paper. However, prints on regular paper are very disappointing, with text appearing fuzzy and uncontrolled and images suffering from severe banding. There’s also no built-in memory card slots, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Nevertheless, for just £109 (ex. VAT), you do get dual paper trays, automatic duplex printing, CD-R/DVD printing functions, as well as impressive output quality on high-quality paper, making the PIXMA iP4000 a good value offering if you intend to print mostly 6×4in. documents.”
