Canon i550 ... capacity: 150 sheets - parallel, USB / The Canon i550 Color Bubble Jet Printer delivers professional-level performance with the ultimate home-printer value. Speeds of up to 18 ppm in black and up to 11 ppm in color will let you race through Web pages and documents faster than you ever thought possible. Quality is amazing with an ultra-high resolution of up to 4800 x 1200 color dpi. The i550 printer even turns your desktop into a virtual photo lab-enjoy stunning borderless 4" x 6" prints in less than 48 seconds and photos in sizes up to 8.5" x 11". The i550 printer features the unique Canon Think Tank System that combines individual ink tanks with intelligent ink management for ease-of-use and lower printing costs.

The i550 printer features several Canon exclusives: advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology dramatically improves resolution and detail. It has a revolutionary nozzle system that ejects consistent prescribed-volume droplets in ultra-fine sizes with remarkable accuracy. Precision Color Distribution Technology features a symmetrical printhead design with 1, 088 nozzles to virtually eliminate color variance and banding problems typically found with conventional high-speed, bi-directional printing.

The i550 printer supports Exif 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File), a new worldwide standard for higher quality digital photos, and features exclusive Canon Easy-PhotoPrint software that delivers the potential of Exif Print and more. When an Exif compliant digital camera captures a photo, important camera settings and shooting conditions are saved in the JPEG image file. Simple-to-use Easy-PhotoPrint analyzes the recorded data then automatically adjusts printer driver settings for optimum image processing. The result: digital photos that more closely match the photographer's true intentions.

 ... insert the disk and the software literally talks you through it. Which I think is a dodgy use of the word *literally* as it didn't actually speak. That would be scary. Anyway, the whole process was 5 mins fro start to test page printing. Print quality - is good. Now were a school so to be honest it isn't the most important factor. rarely do we have a 5 year-old criticising us for the dodgy quality of our printing on displays. Not living ones anyway. But, at the time it was the best Id seen from a *school* printer and I s...more

Premium Review Canon i550: ICT co-ordinators little helper (713 words)
by - written on 11/01/08 (Very useful, 123 readings)

I'm actually a teacher but for some bizarre reason a few colleagues think because I'm in charge of the teaching of ICT I am by default the bloke who knows where every cable goes, where to put the ink, how to reassemble a network and how to program Artificial Intelligence into children. Thank god then that at least one piece of wired hell in our place doesn't need constant nurse-maiding. This is it. We have six that have been running practically without attention for 3 years now, apart from one runt model that decided to sacrifice itself and martyr its functionality for the good of the others. It seems to have died for their sins so that they might live. ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Canon i550x (127 words)
by - written on 07/01/06 (Somewhat useful, 1009 readings)
Rating:

I have owned a 550 for 3 years. We purchased it after our honeymoon to print out our favourite images. It is a well built printer in a quality silver finish. The pictures it produces are of a high standard and text prints are fast and clear. Compared to early bubble/inkjet printers this one is exceptionally good. I see no reason to change this printer even after 3 years heavy use. The footprint is pretty small with the paper loading and delivery tray folding away neatly leaving the unit about the size a large shoebox. Installation is very easy, with clear instructions provided. The supplied software is also useful without being too ...  Read the complete review
