Canon Pixma iP4600 - Best for pictures October 12, 2008
Noah

Having sworn off HP and Epson printers years ago because of problems with reliability and service, I decided to give Canon a chance. Based on the mostly stellar reviews of the iP4500, I decided to purchase the slightly cheaper successor model, the iP4600. I was particularly interested in the duplexing option for printing out longer documents, and the high-quality photo output.
The directions for setup were easy, although the entire process took close to 20 minutes, with all the packaging and cartridges, etc.
I've used the printer now for nearly two weeks now, and here are my initial impressions:
- Photo quality is excellent! I haven't had an inkjet printer in several years, but this thing blows away anything I've had before. If you don't look too closely, the prints on photo paper could fool me into thinking they came from the store, rather than my own printer. I also tried some off-brand photo paper, which seems to use a different printing preset than the Canon paper, but quality was comparable once I figured this out. Borderless printing seems to work as advertised, although I personally prefer a bit of a border.
- Speed is okay. I've only printed photos on the included 4x6in photo paper, but it takes less than half a minute per picture, which seems fast. Single-sided printing speed is acceptable -- about 15-20 seconds per side of text.
- Duplexing is slow -- the printer lets the front of the page dry before moving on to the back, and this takes an additional 5-10 seconds per sheet. This nearly doubles the printing time. [As noted in the comments, you can apparently adjust the drying time to reduce this wait.]
- Text quality is reasonably good, nowhere near laser-quality, but eminently readable.
While the printer has a relatively large footprint, it is nice that I can load paper into the cassette below the printer (which extends slightly from the front of the printer) or the rear tray, which I prefer for my desk setup.
All in all, I think everything I saw in the reviews of the iP4500 applies here. I am quite satisfied with the printer so far.

I just replaced my 1999 vintage hp 970 Cse inkjet with duplex accessary with this new Canon ip4600 that automatically prints on both sides of the page , and couldn't be happier. I have grown to appreciate the Canon product line of cameras and now their printers. It is about twice as fast as the old hp 970, but the colors not quite as vibrant until you print out a glossy photo, and again I was impressed with the speed for a 4"x6" glossy print that looks like it was developed at Ritz Camera. The print was done in like 15 seconds!
I use this printer in my office for a lot of color graphs and two sided reports and reprints. The foot print is about right and looks great on my countertop return. I'll let you know if I can get 7 years out of this one like I did with the old hp. Also Amazon got this to me within 24 hours delivery with no hassles. Good choice and good service.
 Excellent Photo Printer With Minor Problems October 26, 2008

First the good points of the IP4600; The photo print quality is excellent. The setup is easy. I am pleased with the operation of the printer. On the down-side; The IP4600 DOES NOT print CDs/DVDs even though several retailers (including Amazon) states that it does. Canon Tech Support seemed very surprised that the feature was given in their specifications. I have a problem with some incompatability between the Canon On-Screen Manual software and software installed on my computer. The manual would open once after a boot then fail on subsequent tries. Tech Support has no software fix, but are mailing a hard copy. ON the first print job after power-on the printer goes through several seconds of clicks and hums before it will feed paper and print.

Canon have outdone themselves in diservice to their customers here. I have been a loyal fan for some years but after my i860 died I replaced it with the ip4600. I have only had it a couple of weeks and the ink has almost run out. The ink tanks are sooooo small.
I have printed 1 A4 photo and 2 postcards. The color tanks are 60% empty. I am an occasional user turning the machine on and off when I need a print, mostly for text. All the noises that it makes on startup I can only presume are cleaning routines for the print heads. So even if you don't print much you will be replacing the ink soon. As the ink replacements are half the cost of the printer I have no doubt that this model will be stoking the landfills in abundance.
Good print quality.
MEAN, shame on Canon.
The Canon iP4600 is a high quality product. January 11, 2009

If you want a printer that produces high quality photos, including black and white photos, then this is the printer to get. It's user friendly to install and to use. It prints photos fast (less than 20 seconds), but it take a shorter time (average of 10 seconds) preparing to print the photo. It does make mechanical sounds and noises while it's preparing to print. That surprised me the first couple of prints, but any concern faded away when I got a quality print. I suggest using the Canon photo paper. I tried other photo paper, but was disappointed with the results. Oh yes, the iP4600 is not an ink hog. This was a nice surprise. For the cost, you can't beat the quality of the iP4600.
