Good affordable photo printer, September 27, 2009

I bought this printer to replace a HPO 1200 all in one that died on me a couple months ago. I hooked the Canon up to Macbook Pro through my Airport Express. The setup was easy and I am very happy with the photo quality. Print speed isn't that great but I do not do too much printing for it to really matter. It is quieter than my old HP. I like the individual ink cartridges and dual paper trays... one for printer paper the other for photo paper.

It's an okay printer, but not great..., September 12, 2009
I bought this picture to print my photography pictures. It's not the quality needed for photography, but it's fine for at home family photo's.
Excellent Purchase, August 30, 2009
This is a very economical printer. It prints awesome pictures and is also great for everyday use. It's nice that there are five individual ink cartridges so that you only have to replace the color that runs out. I love this printer!
Canon iP 3600 Inkjet photo printer, August 11, 2009
I bought this printer to use for text only and it prints out beautifully.I may use for photos at some point and time but the price point on this is excellent for whatever your needs.I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
A very nice printer, July 30, 2009
I really like this printer. The print quality and colors look good.
The only problem I had was how to load the bottom tray, so I switched it to
top load only.

Our Sources

1. About.com

About.com's guide to printers and scanners, Peter Piazza, reviews the Canon Pixma iP3600 after hands-on use and recommends spending about $20 more for the iP4600, which has duplex printing. Otherwise, the iP3600 produces "beautiful color prints" for a cheap initial price. (Note: ConsumerSearch is owned by About.com, but the two don't share an editorial affiliation.)

2. Amazon.com

About 20 owner reviews are posted for the iP3600 at this writing, with two-thirds giving the printer five out of five stars. The two one-star reviews say the iP3600 was dead on arrival, while the handful of other less-than-impressed users say setup was difficult, but the printer worked fine afterward.

3. CNET

This review of the older, but very similar iP3500, says the print quality is great for a cheap, home-use inkjet printer if your needs are basic. About 10 user reviews combine for a lower rating with really no consensus on complaints, although paper jams are the most common gripe.

4. PC World

This review gives the older Canon Pixma iP3500 a "very good" rating despite yellowish skin tones and a lack of duplex printing. A handful of owner reviews combine for four out of five stars.
