Printer Reviews – Hp, Xerox, Dell and More

One look at the Canon PIXMA iP100 color inkjet printer, and you might mistake it for a chunky netbook or some other device.  Its ultra-compact frame and sleek silver design makes it nearly unrecognizable as a photo printer.  Make no mistake, however, that this is an excellent machine designed for the ultimate portability.

Measuring only 2.4 inches by 12.7 inches by 7.2 inches, the PIXMA iP100 inkjet is small even by portable standards.  It can easily fit into a medium-sized laptop bag or carry-on, making it ideal for travel.  Despite its small size, it is capable of printing in all major photo sizes, up to 8×10 prints.  Most users will probably print mainly borderless 4×6 prints, however.

With such a tiny machine, you might think that Canon sacrificed speed, but you would be wrong.  It can print at up to 20 pages per minute for black and 14 pages per minute for color, making it faster than many desktop models.  Setup is very simple.   Just insert the driver disc, follow the onscreen prompts and connect the cable, and you are ready to go.

All of these benefits would be for nothing if printer ink was too expensive, and luckily Canon iP100 ink cartridges are very affordable.  Since PIXMA iP100 ink cartridges are also easy to find, users don’t have to worry about finding replacement printer ink when traveling. 

Users who reviewed the Canon PIXMA iP100 inkjet give it very high ratings.  They mention its ease of use and its excellent portability.  The main criticism against the unit is the lack of a USB cable in the box.

Travelers, photographers and others who need to print on the go will find a lot to like about the Canon PIXMA iP100.  It is a compact and reliable machine that can follow you virtually anywhere and doesn’t sacrifice printing speed.  With a low upfront price and affordable PIXMA iP100 ink, it is a great value.
