Advantages: quick and reliable

Disadvantages: manual duplex only :(

This is by far the best printer system Ive ever used. So many printers start out well but get through ink too quickly or get soooo slow at printing/scanning. Well the Canon Pixma MP460 does neither of these things, it actually does many things I didnt even realise when I brought it. Like when you scan a document in, the software that comes with the system can recognise font and letters so you can edit what the document says then print it out. As you can imagine this is great news if you've spotted a misprint and forgot to save or if you just fancy changing the headline of a newspaper. The scanner is amazing honestly I scanned something the other day to make a copy of it and I could not tell the difference between the copy and original (luckily the original had a fold in it). One thing I think could be improved is that to duplex print, ie print on both sides you have to take the printout and put it back into the papertray which is a little inconvenient but hey. All in all a brilliant printer system for family use and includes some great software to boot.

Summary: very efficient and non-computer people friendly
