If you need an inkjet printer that can also scan and copy, but you don't need to fax, reviewers consistently favored the Canon Pixma MP610 as the best choice in its day. Canon since has released the updated Canon Pixma MP620 (*Est. $140), which adds wireless networking. Experts said that the Canon Pixma MP610 outputs outstanding photos and documents, making it suitable for all-purpose use. Duplex printing is slow, say reviewers. And scan quality, while adequate, doesn't match what you'd get from a standalone scanner. If you need to send and receive faxes, the HP Photosmart Premium Fax C309 (*Est. $250) is best-reviewed.
PCMag.com delivers the most thorough, balanced and comparative review of the Canon Pixma MP610, featuring a standardized approach to printer testing. TrustedReviews.com's report is similar in length but lacks the substance of PCMag.com's. About.com and PC Pro both provide subjective measures of output quality. Amazon.com rounds out the review sampling, providing a cross-section of real-world performance with user-contributed evaluations.

M. David Stone delivers the most detailed coverage of the Canon Pixma MP610. He provides concrete performance measures and pits the MP610 directly against its predecessor and other current multifunction printers. In tests, the MP610 handily outperforms its competitors and earns an Editors' Choice award.

Simon Williams' evaluation is largely a descriptive summary. At one point, the Canon is deemed "better" than another multifunction printer, but there is no elaboration. Williams finds the MP610 to be nearly flawless, except for slow duplex printing, and recommends it.

Peter Piazza doesn't particularly like the Pixma MP610. He concludes that similarly priced competitors perform just as well and are more user-friendly, but he doesn't specify which models those might be. (Note: ConsumerSearch is owned by About.com, but the two don't share an editorial affiliation.)

4. PC Pro
In a one-paragraph summary, Dave Stevenson reviews the major performance points of the Pixma MP610, but he doesn't describe how the printer was evaluated or provide comparisons with other multifunction printers. He characterizes Canon's Pixma MP610 as virtually identical to the earlier MP600, still finds it "a fabulous buy" and makes it a PC Pro "Recommended" product.

5. Amazon.com
More than 250 user reviews combine to give the Canon Pixma MP610 a very high average score, with about two-thirds giving it the maximum five stars. The handful of negative reviews focus on printhead/cartridge errors in which the printer doesn't recognize an ink tank.
