Canon Pixma iP2600 Photo Inkjet Printer (2435B002)

Ive only used this printer a couple of times, but so far I love it. I love the overall appearance of the printer. The ink cartridges were a little hard to get in the first time, I almost gave up. Print quality is better than the previous printer I had. Very easy to set up. It does take awhile for it to begin printing documents, I wait almost a minute before it begins to print. Overall for the price and quality of printing, I would give this computer a B.

While went to buy the Ink for my HP Photosmart printer, I noticed this printer from Canon for just $30 and bought this one without any second thought ($30 is way cheaper than the HP inks). Installation went without an issue on my Vista PC, and I am not finding printing speed an issue. So far so good. I prefer to stay with Canon than HP for following reasons. 1) HP uses color ink even when choosing black printing. Though I print black and white prints, but HP makes me to buy color inks more often than b&w 2) HP expires the ink after some period. HP wants to generate constant money flow, but IMO this is not a way to do. Thanks Suriya.

I bought this printer at walmart one year they had it for sale at $29.99. it has lasted me four and a half years of printing many pages every week, but it was mostly black and white, so replacing cartridges wasnt that bad. the price of the cartridge sis not terrible compared to some other printers. i probably wouldnt use this for picture printing even though thats partly what its for. the only reason its not working now is because my toddler got ahold of it when i was not looking and somehow messed up the slider thing that the cartridges are on. otherwise it would still be working great for what i need it for.i would buy it again if the price hadnt gone up 5-fold. i think its a good printer if you can get it for cheaper than what its now selling for.

I bought this printer from Walmart for about $30 or so. Canon did a terrible job with this printer! It does print, and it can print some nice photos - not top quality but decent and usable. Its not really fast, but its not horribly slow. One thing to note - it has a design flaw - there is only one side of the paper tray that has a feeding mechanism and its faulty. It complains it has no paper constantly and may print crooked if not babysat. If I had more money at the time, I wouldnt have bought this printer, I would have purchased a different brand or a different model. The saying applies here - you get what you pay for. Ive had it for about a year and Im tired of fighting with it. I hate this printer!

I bought this printer several months ago for thirty bucks at a big-box discount retail store. (Cant remember whether there was also a USB cable in the box; there might have been. I have plenty of them at home so its not a big deal for me either way.) At the time my main home printer was a fancy Canon multifunction inkjet. I got the IP2600 because its small and lightweight. Although not intended for use as a portable printer, it was easy to take along with my laptop, to the home of an older relative for whom I was doing some word processing. Including printing out 5 x 7 updated pages for her address/phone book. It was perfect for that project. Since that time, my older Canon multifunction inkjet machine bit the dust, and the new Canon multifunction inkjet I bought to replace it? Proved to be an unstable ink-gobbling diva and went back to Costco. As a result, this modest little printer has served as my main home printer for several weeks. I recently purchased a

This printer prints quicker than the printer it replaced, however, when it pulls paper from the tray, its quite noisy. The print quallity of color photos are not as good as expected. For a low-price printer, this one is OK.

Mine worked for a while . . . but now the photo stock wont feed at all, and the only message I get is Paper out! Load paper and press resume button. Even though there are 20 sheets of photo stock in the hopper. Update: I adjusted the number of sheets in the hopper and got it to work. Not sure what the optimum number of sheets is - perhaps close to full (1/2 inch space)?

I have a B&W workhorse laser (HP) and didnt use this printer much except for a few color prints once in awhile. If I had, I probably would have run into the feeder issue a lot sooner like many people out there. However, under such little use, it took 11 months for the Feeder Failure to appear. The feeder starts grabbing just the right side only and jams the paper. You can try cleaning it, but it doesnt work. You can Google it and gauge about what stage the printer begins to do this for people--but my guess is about 100 -200 feeds. I got this printer free, but Im still a little disappointed Canon put out a defective printer. The features werent great, it was a middle of the road printer, a bit slow, cheap plastic, expensive ink, etc, but as far as I can tell a very inexpensive purchase price for what you get, which probably explains why they only offered a 90 day warranty: it was made to get past the 90 day mark only.

Needed a decent printer after TWO Lexmark Wally World cheapies refused to work after a while. I just wanted to print out my tax returns and stuff. The Canon was easy to use and setup. Just hope the ink cartridges dont dry up. I keep them in a glassine (dope) sealed bag, with a wet piece of paper. Hope this works. OK printer so far....

tHE CANON IP2600 IS A QUITE SERVICABLE PRINTER. THE PRINT QUALITY IS QUITE GOOD.
