FINE Technology
What's the key to the iP1600's impressive performance? Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) uses an innovative print head with 1,472 nozzles that eject consistent, precise ink droplets as small as two picoliters. It's a simple formula: more nozzles with higher accuracy equal amazing results. This patented technology produces an outstanding color resolution of up to 4800 by 1200 color dots per inch (dpi), and 600 by 600 black dpi, for exceptional detail and photo-realism. At the same time, the Canon ChromaLife100 system, combined with the iP1600's FINE print head technology, newly developed inks, and select Canon photo papers, yield long lasting photos that will retain their beauty up to 100 years when stored in an archival quality photo album.

Sharp, Clear Photos and Graphics
To further enhance printing quality, the PIXMA iP1600 Photo Printer uses high-intensity ChromaLife100 color inks for sharp, clear photos and graphics. Plus, its special pigment black ink delivers laser-like text, as well as a higher resistance to smudging when you're handling or highlighting a printed document. When it comes to speed, the iP1600 is equally impressive; it produces a 4 x 6 inch photo lab quality borderless photo in approximately 70 seconds. Print speeds range up to 19 pages per minute (ppm) for monochrome and 16 ppm for color. This machine is also versatile, and lets you print on a wide range of materials. Rather than limiting you to just standard photo-sized paper, the iP1600 can handle sizes from credit card to legal size, plus envelopes, in a wide variety of weights and finishes.

Canon Software Makes Customization Easy
The iP1600 comes with software to help you customize your prints so you get the exact results you want. Easy-WebPrint software enables Windows users to properly print web pages in full color and without losing information off the right edge. For added convenience, Easy-PhotoPrint version 3.3 software delivers professional looking digital photos in 4 x 6 inch, 5 x 7 inch and 8.5 x 11, perfect sizes for framing and sending to family and friends. Together, these Canon applications give you the high-quality results you expect without having to worry about complicated or confusing instructions. With the iP1600 it's always a snap to produce brilliant, edge-to-edge borderless photos.

Compatability and Connectivity
The iP1600 is designed to integrate seamlessly with your current network. With its straightforward USB port, connecting the printer to your computer is quick and easy; the iP1600 is also compatible with both Windows and Macintosh operating systems.

The iP1600 comes with a one-year limited warranty covering parts and labor.

Good basic printer.......2007-06-22

If you don't have a high printing demand, this one will do fine. Had no problem with installation. I suggest buying extra ink. I printed 4 photos, and the color ink ran out.

good deal.......2007-05-15

Good price, high quality prints, affordable ink make this a goodd deal to have for your home office. It is compact in size and can be squeezed into tight places. Light weight makes it easy to move.

Great for the price.......2007-02-01

We have had this printer (actually two of them) for several months now, and they perform well. The photo printing is good, but not the best, but it's a fast b & w printer with good quality and replacement cartridges are reasonable. The main drawback is no output tray. These don't get heavy use, so I can't say they have been put to the test.

Not happy with the quality.......2007-01-31

When it was time to buy a new printer, I used to buy a bit higher quality than I really needed - and then I never used those extra features, I didn't make color pics nearly as often as I imagined I would, and b&w text didn't look any better just cause I spent an extra two hundred bucks on the printer.

So when I went to buy a few months ago, money was tight and I figured I'd try out my new theory. I purchased the very cheapest printer I could find: the Pixma ip1600. Yes it goes through ink quickly, but since the ink is cheaper than some other brands I didn't worry about it. What has bothered me is the relatively poor quality of the printer itself. Paper feed is clumsy - sometimes it takes a couple of minutes to grab a sheet, or it grabs more than one, or feeds it through crooked. The finised printed sheet exits from the bottom front of the printer. If there is the *slightest* resistance against the exiting paper (eg. you take hold of the paper as it is going through) the print quality is flawed. I've had pages ruined simply because the top edge of the paper hit the desk, rather than sliding smoothly over it. I'm a college professor, so my students don't complain if my exams have a stripe at the top, or what-not, but I can imagine the frustration trying to use this printer for an important proposal where perfection mattered.

So I think I went too far the other way. This is a printer that is too cheap even for my simple needs.

good for home use.......2007-01-17

Great little printer, if you don't mind paying for the ink cartridges. Compare the PIXMA1500 ink prices to the PIXMA1600. Same basic print quality, but robbery for 1600 ink cartridges.
