Fantastic value printer
Reviewed by Eric Eisenhandler. Review Posted 14/12/2009
I've had an Epson photo printer for many years. Good quality, but slow - and if you don't use it for a while you have to waste a lot of ink and time cleaning the nozzles. I was thinking of a very much more expensive Epson photo printer, but reviews say that nozzle clogging is still a problem. So I thought I'd try the Canon iP4700, but I was worried by the relatively low price. What a nice surprise! It's fast, and the print quality is very good. Of course genuine Canon ink and paper are expensive, and that's how they make a profit. I might try other types of paper, but will stay with Canon ink - I don't want my prints to fade or to compromise print quality. (I do ordinary b&w printing on a cheap monochrome laser printer.) I just did some A4 prints of photos I took at a concert - the colours are excellent and the black backdrop is jet black. Canon's printing software for Macs was also a pleasant surprise - works well and is quick and easy to use for a variety of standard formats.

Keep it green
Built-in 2-sided printing can cut your paper usage by up to 50%, helping the environment. -
Auto Photo Fix II
This built-in technology automatically categorizes your images into one of five types - portrait, scenery, night scenery, snapshot with scenery, and snapshot with night scenery - then applies optimal image and multi-zone exposure correction. So, unexposed areas of the photo will be optimized, area by area and faces that are backlit and under-exposed will automatically be brightened with correct color cast to help ensure more accurate skin tones for gorgeous images. -
USB 2.0 Hi-Speed
Plug the cable into your computer for a super-fast connection for your data transfers.
