Amazon.com Item Description:The Canon Pixma iP4500 is a stylish unit that boasts both a five-color ink system and a 4,608-nozzle print head to deliver wonderfully lifelike color, along with bold, laser-quality text. How does it work? The print head ejects precision droplets as small as one picoliter, resulting in a breathtaking 9600 x 2400 color dot-per-inch (dpi) resolution as well as a truly exceptional level of detail. Remarkably efficient, the iP4500 also will print a borderless 4-by-6-inch photo in only about 21 seconds. And you can store both photo paper and plain paper in the two paper trays at the same time, so you're always ready to print exactly what you need.
The user-friendly iP4500 provides lots of options, so you can indulge your creativity. With this system, you get four dye-based inks plus a pigment-based black ink, the option of printing two-sided documents to save paper, and the ability to print right from your infrared-enabled mobile camera phone. Simply capture an image with a PictBridge-ready digital camera or DV camcorder, then connect and print--it's that simple. And to make sure your favorite shots look their best, the built-in automatic image-fixing feature via Easy PhotoPrint EX also helps ensure that each image is as clear and vibrant as possible.
What's in the Box Pixma iP4500 photo printer, document kit (cross sell sheet, easy setup instructions, quick start guide), setup software and user's guide on CD-ROM, PGI-5 pigment black ink tank, CLI-8 (black/cyan/magenta/yellow) ink tank, sample media (five 8.5-by-11-inch sheets and four print alignment sheets), power cord, and print head.

Good Home Printer
This is a nice home printer that prints good color maps etc. (Of course the ink is a little expensive, but that is normal these days.)
These Canon printers seem to clog less than Epson when you use them infrequently.

Service beyond belief
The reviews describing the Canon iP4500 on Amazon's Site were concise and detailed and easily enabled me to make my choice of this printer. Ordering was simple and the price was very good. The delivery was fantistic (3 days), I couldn't have obtained this printer locally nearly this fast. Thank you Amazon for another excellent buying situation.

Worst printer ever
I have used many printers in my life and this is, without a doubt the worst printer ever. I attempted to make it work for 6 months and finally gave up. On a regular basis, it would not print and bring up various error messages. I tired better paper, but that did not help. It would print okay for a few days and then just bring up an error code on the next print. Plus it ate ink, I was constantly buying one of the 4 cartridges. I have never written a review of anything before today,but this printer was so bad, I had to let other people know.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRINTER.

good printer for good price
I bought this because of suggestion from Red River Paper and because of reviews from customers. This printer was not hard to set up and worked like a charm. I print photo cards and the quality is great, good printing speed also. The only downside is having to provide your own USB cord. I would recommend this product.
