4 out of 5 stars A Quality small printer.   November 23, 2009
Paul S. Boyd Batstone
I needed a printer to fit in a tight space. I would like to have a printer with more features and possibly higher quality photo printing like some of the higher end Canon printers. Nevertheless, Canon makes a high quality printer even at lower ends of their spectrum.


5 out of 5 stars Canon Pixma iP4700 is a winner   November 23, 2009

Looking for a printer that just prints, without scanners, faxes or other unnecessary and expensive distractions, I found this jewel. Excellent photos, very good text at a reasonable price and with reasonably low cost of operation.

I purchased this printer after a lot of research here on Amazon and elsewhere. This printer is replacing an old Epson Stylus Photo 780 that I've had for years. I was really unhappy with the Epson because the ink heads clogged up constantly. I also wanted the newest printer possible, since I've had problems with other devices not updating their drivers, so this printer fit the bill.

The Canon printer has been wonderful for me so far. It was easy to set up and install and worked right away. I'm using Snow Leopard on a Mac, so I had to download the actual driver from Canon's web site, but this is easy to do and pretty self-explanatory.

I love that the printer is all enclosed. The regular paper sits in a tray at the bottom, and everything can be closed up so that dust doesn't get into it. Photo paper is loaded at the rear.

This printer has individual ink cartridges, a plus in my opinion.
I am using it lightly (10-15 regular color pages, 1-2 photos per week) so I have not dented the supply level on the ink cartridges, and can't really comment on how fast the ink runs out. The print quality is pretty good for the regular paper, and very good for photos. I was very impressed with the photos that I printed, they were sharp and the color was great.

The software drivers are adequate and not too confusing. I found this printer very easy to use and of good quality. I'm very happy with it, and it's miles better than my old Epson.




1 out of 5 stars A Great Printer brought low by cost of ink and rate of ink use!   November 12, 2009

The quality of the printing from this printer is as good as any I have seen, which makes it all the worse that I still can't give it better than one star. The fact is that if it were a car, it would be the number one model traded in during Cash for Clunkers, since this printer eats ink like Al Gore wastes fuel flying everywhere, and than some. It isn't just on the high end settngs either, as even on fast quality and with standard paper it drains both your ink and your budget. If you have the money to burn, you'll get great prints. If not, look for an older model like the 4200 or 4300, both of which I've owned (the 4700 was a replacement for the 4300 that lasted years and printed thousands of pages per month without sending me to the poor house over ink). After years of buying Canon, my next printer isn't going to be from them without some serious research into ink consumption on their and other brand models. Too bad, I realy like the way this printer prints, but my old 4200 will be getting more use, with the 4700 saved for those rare times I can justify the cost.


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic, affordable printer   November 10, 2009

My old Canon i960 was dying, and it was time to purchase a new printer. After loads of research, I chose the Pixma ip4700...and it completely lived up to the high expectations I have for Canon photo printers. Prints are crisp and colors are fantastic. Plus, technology has improved so much since I last purchased a printer--dpi is better, and print speed is much, much faster than my old i960. For around $100, you can't go wrong. People are always amazed when they see prints I make on Canon printers...the quality rivals and possible even surpasses print labs.
