3Great Manual
By Harry M. Joseph
I purchased the iP90v in the hope of using it at Special Events and Fairs. I needed a photo printer that was relatively light with the added option of being able to print directly from a camera. The iP90v certainly lived up to my expectations when it came to those two options. With a 'Picbridge' compatible device like my Canon 30D I can print pictures directly from the camera without using a heavy laptop computer as the middle man. The iP90v also comes with computer software that let's you print from a computer if you wish to to do so.I'm not sure if others had the same problem, but downloading this software was extremely difficult and complicated. It took me a few hours just to get it right compared with my other 2 printers which were pretty much plug and play. Luckily this printer came with a very good 'English' only manual that did a very good job of pointing out mistakes. The computer software gives you the options of organizing your photos, and minor editing features such as color balance, red eye removal, brightening or darkening of the picture. There are very few options when printing from 'PicBridge".This was my main gripe about this printer, because I read that PicBridge does give you the option to edit photos inside the camera, but NOT with this printer ! The printer came with 1 pack of 25 sheet 4X6 paper, but I ordered 3 more packs - 50 4X6, 25 5X7 and 25 8X10 Glossy sheets, because I wanted to see how the printer performed under different conditions. For plain old text this printer is great, very fast and very sharp. You can get an A4 in about 1 minute.For photos, this printer has a tendency to underexpose(darken) your pictures. My best prints are the ones that were originally over exposed by about 1 stop. I called Canon about this and after the service Rep took 3 minutes to read the manual over the phone, he told me that my best bet would be to over expose my pictures by 1 stop when using this printer. I figure I could live with that since my camera has automatic over/under exposure compensation, but it's still a hassle.How did the prints come out. I would say I got some very acceptable looking pictures in all three formats 4X6, 5X7 and 8X10 in about 4 minutes. The colors match up well and there was no smudging even when using Glossy paper. I would say that somebody at a Special Event, or at a Fair might find the prints from this printer very acceptable indeed. Whereas someone paying for a professional portrait, or fine art work would not. The minute details are just not there. To be fair, however, I have not tried all the types of papers this printer can handle and which might give me better results than plain old Glossy.Durability ? The printer is solidly built. I wouldn't call it a Tank, but it does feel pretty solid. I still think that for travel, a padded case or taveling bag would be a very wise purchase. One thing though the paper feeder door latches are made of flimsy plastic and don't look durable at all. I figure they are going to be the first to go.I haven't used this printer much to say whether I love it or hate it. So far it does a pretty good job of printing Color and B&W prints on the go. You can also print custom made stickers and labels with it. Not bad especially the stickers part.One thing the manual does not mention is the amount of prints you can get from a single ink cartridge. I called Canon about this and they were pretty evasive about it, rather stating that it depends on the situation. Finally a rep told me that you could get about 185 4X6's on the Black ink catridge. About 400 4X6s with the Color ink cartridge. I found those numbers astronomical since I dont think my much bigger Epson printer can get as many prints from a single cartidge. Maybe the rep though I was talking about Text ? I'll just have to wait and see.

4Pint-sized Printer Packs a Punch
By carmelinmist
This printer is great for light volume, high quality printing. What I love most about it is that it can print 8.5" x 11" sheet and it is only the size of a book. It is lighter than a dictionary. It does not print as fast as a Laser Ink Jet but fast enough.The ink cartridges are small, but it was expected because the whole printer is so small! The black one lasts 2 to 3 months before we replace with a new one. We only print on the average 4 pages a week in our household so it has not been a problem for us. My experience is that one black ink cartridge is good for printing about 60 to 70 pages of average contents such as expense reports, boarding pass, maps... Not too dense. Our color ink lasts a bit longer because we seldom print photo. It does have a low ink warning which I often ignore till the print becomes too faint. And I wish the blue tooth adapter was built in but you have to buy additionally.I got this printer from another online retailer at a great price but it arrived not working. The printer head refused to feed paper. We went to the Canon website and found out our local Canon authorized service. We took it in and they fixed the problem within 2 or 3 days free of charge. The cost was covered by warranty. We are quite pleased with the product and the service.

5Mobile convenience
By Christopher Roe
This printer is pretty pricey at retail compared to other offerings on the market, especially when coupled with the LK-51B battery and the BU-10 Bluetooth adapter. However, it's a very compact, lightweight, and rugged printer that fits nicely in my backpack, and can print on full-sized 8.5x11 paper. Buying from Amazon during a sale netted me a very decent savings off MSRP.Photo quality on photo paper is very, very good. Text quality on normal inkjet paper is not perfect, but is more than adequate for most purposes, and is comparable to that of my larger Canon Pixma iP6600D.If you buy it to use with a notebook on the go, get the LK-51B battery. With the battery, I was able to shoot digital photos for damage reporting, download them to my notebook, and then print them off on 4x6 photo paper at a lease signing in a house with no electricity. Very convenient!
