I had an Epson 785EPX photo printer and when it worked, the prints were dazzling. However, my printer heads were constantly clogging and I wasted tons of ink cleaning the heads all the time. The ink is not cheap. So, I started researching for a fresh photo printer. I chose the Canon line because they have a reputation for cheaper ink. I found this to be just when I purchased the Canon i250 to replace another Epson ink hog (the 640) for my general printing. (I hold one printer for general printing, one for photos) The Canon ink cartridges ARE cheaper and last longer. After reading reviews on photo printers I decided between the Canon ip4000 and the ip6000d. The ip4000 got improbable reviews both from consumers and magazines. There weren't a lot of reviews on the ip6000d I protest because it's newer. I decided to risk buying the ip6000d anyways because I really wanted the media input slot for convenience. I'm here to say the photos are Astounding and of photo lab quality. I tested using the included Canon Photo Paper Pro and also my leftover Epson Premium Photo Glossy Paper. Both papers produced the same results. The printer unpacked and installed easily. For printing without the computer, the menu/LCD conceal on the printer is intuitive and easy to exhaust. For printing through the computer, the software program 'Easy Photo-Print' stands by it's name. A couple of mouse clicks and the perfect print came out. If it matters, my digital camera is a Kodak DX6490. There are two things to see for while setting up your ip6000d for the first time. Both have to do with loading paper into the cassette tray. Develop determined you load the paper PRINT SIDE DOWN and peer out for the slight plastic thingy that holds the paper in station. Mine broke off and the spring flew off who knows where. It aloof works but unbiased moves around easily. Since I unprejudiced got the printer today I can't comment on long term spend or ink usage for clear. I've printed about 10 4X6's so far and 3 of the 6 tanks note a very slim line for usage.
After weeks of reading reviews about photo printers, I purchased the Canon ip6000D based on it's high ratings. So far it has been a spacious printer.

Naturally, when you are spending over $150 on a photo printer, you demand an obedient result. This printer delivers. The results when printed on photo paper are indistinguishable from a professionally developed photograph in most instances.
I had some problems getting the printer to work initially; it was tiring, on arrival. This is where I decided I would contemplate what kind of company I was dealing with. I called canon and was, within five minutes, being told I would have a modern printer overnighted to me. It arrived and worked beautifully.
Not only did it reach, it came with a fully paid return shipping sign and instructions that I could preserve all of the extra ink (around $70 worth), the extra print head, the free samples of photo paper that came with the printer etc
I do have four complaints with the printer. First, I have found, that if one is printing extremes of white light on a human face, it tends to print out as a titanic white splotch rather than a finely graded result. The result looks somewhat like the person was heavily sweating and had a lot of glare; this is my main complaint.
Second, the printer requires a USB cable to connect to your computer but does not have one packaged with it. Radioshack supplied me with one for around five dollars; surely canon could have achieve one in the box.
Third, I have a dual boot computer that runs on windows and linux. Setting up this printer was easy in windows and the software it comes with makes it a lumber to print pictures on any size paper. However, canon has no linux succor. If I had known this beforehand, I might have actually gone with an equivalent Hewlett Packard printer as HP has a lot of linux befriend.
Fourth, the software it comes with deals only with .jpg files. If you have something in any other format, for example, you have to have a separate program that can convert it into .jpg format. These are easily available over the web, but it seems like a reasonable oversight that canon doesn't befriend anything else out of the box.
My absolute favourite feature of this printer is the certain ink cartridges: this was what initially made me believe canon above anyone else. The fact that I can leer how fleshy the print cartridges are is a wonderfully liberating feature; I can actually Contemplate what's going on in there. Combined with the fact that each colour is an individual cartridge and very inexpensive, canon have a winning conception here.
In summary, I have to say I am extremely delighted with my grasp. None of the above complaints is anything major, probably the worst is the lack of a USB cable which is easily correctable; I imagine you could order one through amazon so it is delivered simultaneously.
