MP 560

Purchased in 2010, MP 560. Runs perfect. Never had a bad page and always use genuine canon ink. The printer gets maintence from internal program every few months and still works like brand new. I would highly recommend.
Buy this once, and not have tto replace your printer for many years to come.
Pros: reliable, Easy Setup, durable, High Quality Output, easy to use
Cons: fairly large...
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent printer

I have used this printer wirelessly in my home office from several different networked computers running Windows versions XP Pro,7 Pro, both 32 and 64 bit versions, and Windows 8.1 Pro. I have never had any problems whatsoever with any wireless connection from any of the six computers I have up and running in my office. I print a lot since I am running my businesses with all these computers, and depend upon reliable printing of very good quality, both for photos as well as graphical letters, bills, brochures, etc. It seems to be quite conservative with ink usage despite what another reviewer has said. I never have connection problems even when re-booting a computer or after shutting everything down during a power outage.
I would recommend this printer to anyone needing a good color inkjet type printer. It's picture quality, as well as graphical capabilities, are very good, making it suitable for all my needs except printing large format items. I have a second Canon for printing on photographic or production media up to 13' x 19".

Has many drawbacks

I researched a long time prior to buying this all-in-one. I must say I'm disappointed. Not only is there not a back feeder for scanning so that you have to scan one page at a time, the scanning is very slow and the software is not as user-friendly to find what you just scanned.
The ink - there are numerous cartridges so that if ONE runs out, you can't just print another color. You must replace that one before printing anything. And they run out a lot...
Then there's the bottom paper feed, which is a PART of the bottom. You basically have to pick the printer up to slide it back in with the little amount of paper it holds.
The wi-fi is good, the menu is good, but otherwise, it's heavy and inconvenient. I wish I had saved the box and taken it back....

Can't print black with low color cartridges
on August 18, 2012
Posted by: jimbo
I ran out of color ink and wanted to print a document requiring black ink only. It won't let you do that until you replace the color cartridge, despite the fact I have plenty of black ink.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

can be hard to use w/ Windows Parallel via Mc

love this machine. The only problem I have experienced is printing from my MAC while running Windows Parallels Machine. I have had hit-and-miss success with printing from this program, so it's more frustrating that is SOMETIMES works, and sometimes DOESN'T WORK.
Honestly, I think the fault lies with the Windows Parallels program-- so buy this machine if you never have to use that program... This is super easy to set up, so wonderful to have wireless printing, and it's great for photos, too!
Pros: reliable, Easy Setup, easy to use
Cons: Slow Print Speed, Heavy/Bulky
I would recommend this to a friend!

nice and easy setup, but don't like the ink life

Very simple to setup, even had no challenges setting up with WiFi on the first run.
Just amazed at how quick the large black ink ran out. Not looking forward to changing it this often.
