Canon PIXMA iP4000
We bought a new printer for our SOHO a while back. It’s a Canon PIXMA iP4000 and we love it.
It’s the first Canon we’ve owned and our next one will be a Canon, too, if this one is any indication of the type of output and reliability that Canon is pimping to the world.

From their website:
If you’re looking for outstanding quality, high speed and advanced convenience features, the Canon PIXMA™ iP4000 Photo Printer is ideal. Its ContrastPLUS 5-color ink system with four dye-based inks plus a pigment-based black ink produces true-life photos with improved color saturation and contrast along with laser-quality text. Plus, it achieves a resolution of up to 4800 x 1200 color dpi1, for exceptional detail and photo-realism. Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) uses a high-performance 1,856-nozzle print head that ejects consistent, prescribed-volume droplets as small as 2 picoliters. Simply put: more nozzles with higher accuracy equal better results at impressive speeds. You can even produce edge-to-edge borderless photos in 4 x 6, 5 x 7 and 8.5 x 11 in. sizes, with the look and feel of traditional photographs.
Using the PIXMA iP4000 Photo Printer is fast and easy. How fast? It can produce up to 25 ppm in black and up to 17 ppm in color, and a 4″ x 6″ borderless print takes only 36 seconds2. How easy? With direct photo printing, you can even print without a computer: simply connect any PictBridge compatible3 digital camera or DV camcorder, and print!
To help keep printing costs down, Canon has developed an efficient system that has five individual ink tanks that let you replace only the color that runs out, rather than an entire cartridge containing unused ink. Plus, a unique low-ink sensor alerts you when ink levels are low, so you are prepared to just drop in a new tank as needed. They call it ” Canon Think Tank System ”
The iP4000 has several unique features that make it a winner:
1) ContrastPLUS ink system for true-life photos and laser-quality text.
2) Up to 25 ppm black/up to 17 ppm color.
3) Dual paper path with built-in 2 sided printing.
4) Maximum 4800 x 1200 color dpi with microscopic droplets as small as 2 picoliters.
5) Direct photo printing from PictBridge compatible digital cameras & DV camcorders.
6) Borderless 4″ x 6″ photographs in approx. 36 seconds.
If you need a quality inkjet printer, give the Canon PIXMA iP4000 a try. It’s working for us.

Cool…I’m gonna’ have to check one of these out. I’ve always been an Epson man, but I’m up for taking a look at something new
Dude, there’s no clean link back to the source - the Canon website, except through an ad.
My bad.
Sorry, I’m getting better, but I miss things on occassion.
No harm intended.
I’ll go fix this right now.
Thanks for pointing that out.
Lesson learned.
There’s now a link straight to the product website.
My apologies to all concerned.
Hi Mike,
There’s a purpose to it
Anchor text in outgoing links helps with on page SEO, plus, linking out to sources of more info on a topic sets up your site as an authority on that topic. By referencing other related sites or pages your page is now worth more to a visitor in the eyes of the SE’s.
You can keep your above-the-fold non-paying links to a minimum by crediting sources the way I do on most of my blogs (most of the time) by including the links in the last few lines of your content, or as a keyworded source link.
You can delete this comment if you want, I won’t mind
Paul, my friend, I wouldn’t dream of deleting good info.
I appreciate the education.
Thanks again for helping us out !
