htthach · 29th October 2007

anyone using this printer? how is it? is it good?
look like it's not commonly used as compared to ip4200, 4300?

I am using it and I love it. Its fast and reliable. Colors prints are close to what I see on my screen. Glossy prints are brilliant. No cloggings or other major issues so far. If you print lots of B&W pics, you will be disappointed with this printer though. Other than that, its a great printer to own. Hope that helps. Cheers!

Hi Hazmee,
did you do some calibration to the printer.
The printer is great just for certain colors it will go off.. like woody colors..

I calibrate my monitor to match the colors of my prints and I get really close to what I see on screen. Maybe you should try that one first. Hope that helps. Cheers!

not sure currently what out in the market...but 150 for this baby , to me is a good price. i got it at 300+ but that is abt months back.
You might want to do some research on current models or wait for the coming Sitex show at Expo to see if there is any better deals?

I bought for about S$399 about a year ago. I would consider it a good deal.
