User 1: If you are looking for a unit that will handle document and photo printing plus scanning, then this is a good option. However, consider the points I raise in this review before you make your final decision…
*Installation isn’t easy and, if you are NOT very computer savvy, you will have a hard time getting everything set up — Especially getting the wifi to work. Here are other things you should bear in mind…
*This is a competent document printer. It also does photo printing very well. The quality I got from it was better than what I got from HP Photosmart 385. Add to this the fact that it also does it faster and you will agree with me that this is good performance. The scanner has an average software that does the job. It delivers good image quality and does it in good time. It takes about 20 seconds from initialization to completion.
The wifi is a very good feature but like I pointed earlier, setting it up isn’t easy. So I’d recommend that you get a competent computer person around. But once you get it configured, the convenience and benefits are quite worth it.
The running cost is something you need to be very mindful of. By my calculation, I sawa that it cost me around 19 cents per photo (That’s NOT adding paper cost). Yes, it the photo prints are excellent quality but you could print your photos online for as little as 5 cents per photo.
Another thing I think you need to factor in before deciding to buy this unit is if you can handle the configuration or are willing to get a computer geek to do it for you.
The Canon PIXMA MP495 is great as a product and does what it does very well but you just have to bear in mind the cost and setup difficulty. If you do then you’d be very happy with your purchase.
User 2: This unit definitely comes at a great price and delivers top quality prints. This would easily have got a five star rating from me but for the difficulty in installation partly due to a lot of unnecessary software loading up and making the entire process a pain.
I hate the bubble that sits permanently on my desktop. It would have been a great idea if they gave me the option of having it there or NOT. Another annoyance has to do with the settings for printing. It prints in reverse order and NO matter what I did, I still can’t get it to print in the order I want.
The print you get from this is good and the cost is very enticing. If you have a way of coping with the software then this would be a great purchase otherwise you’d better stay away from it.
