Content: My Cannon Pixma MP780 finally gave out after five or six years of good use. I didn't need all the features on the MX850 but it looked like the next generation MP780 so I decided to purchase it.

I believe this printer will give me many years of reliable performance. The reason I say this is that my old Cannon Pixma MP780 is literally in three major pieces now. I disassembled this earlier generation Cannon to see how well it was put together and I was impressed with the internal workmanship of this line of printers possess. I believe the MX850 has this quality of workmanship and it also.

I was also pleasantly surprise at how fast the new printer prints.

I'm hoping that the new printer will allow me to refill its inks cartridges without getting an error message. I was able to do this on the
Cannon Pixma MP780 fairly easily and it saved me a lot of money life for the printer. These printer cartridges appear to be the same size but they have a chip which concerns me a bit.

The only reason I did not give this printer a five star rating is because my lack of experience with it. I believe five years from now I'll be a link of this printer 10 star rating if that were possible.
Summary: happy and impressed with this printer

Content: I love this printer/fax/copier/scanner. Everything functions wonderfully and easily... when it functions! You MUST keep a few extra ink cartridges on hand, because NOTHING will work when one cartridge is empty. Crazy because it requires 2 black ink cartridges - and if one runs out, better have another on hand if you want it to keep printing.

Oh - and when I say nothing works, I mean NOTHING. You can't even SCAN a picture to your PC/Laptop. WHO designed that? So the first time I ran out of ink, I learned the hard way when I went to scan in an old pic.

Like I said, I do love it when it is functioning, just make sure you keep plenty of extra ink on hand!
Summary: Awesome, but one piece of info they don't tell you...

Content: The book which comes with the product stinks. (This is in part because I am dumb when it comes to this type of product.) The serial # which is required when you register the product is "hidden" deep within the "guts" of the product. I purchased this becauese of the Consumer Reports write up on it. I hope I will progress in my knowledge to use it and all of its functions.
