"A small wonder - Splurge yourself, go for it!"
Pros: Sleek, small, fast and work wonderfully. Excellent printer, excellent scan and copy fonctions, enven print double side. Love to have only 2 cartridges to change (so less fuss)
Cons: Did'nt found any yet. Wish canon give more info about High capacity cartridges...
Summary: This is not my first Canon, I used them for years and they seem indestructible. I get this MP 450 from Amazon, before it get on the market, and just love it. It is a beautiful little thing, sleek and shiny in black and silver, white a nice adjustable LCD in full colour.
This multifunction is quite small (nice feature if you don?t want to clutter your work space) and it does everything his big sister do (I had the huge mp 780 which I was not so found of). The MP 450 works nicely, smoothly and even faster. Scans and copies are sharp and clear, printing is crisp, it's a real pleasure to use.
Often one says it?s better to have a cartridge for each colour, I am not so sure: when one is empty, the others follow shortly after. I love having just 2 cartridges to watch and manage (dealing with 4 or 5, you're always running at the shop unless you store a lot). By the way it is really a two (2) cartridges printer (event though I read otherwise on some websites. Furthermore, every time you change one of these, you get a new head, (that means sharp printing). But, even with that, the ink cost is quite low, a very important feature for me as I print a lot of text. It even "duplex print, so you use both side of paper. Furthermore, included are two high capacity cartridges , but I didn?t compared theses the regular ones, or found any info on theses, but this is a nice little plus.
Photo and colour printing are astounding, you can modify the setting to your own tastes. The software bundle is full of nice surprises, like Arcsoft photo suite, which reassemble a little to Photoshop but is far much easier to use) , and two scanner utilities.
So I am very glad to have wait for the MP 450. And hope you?ll enjoy it as much as I do. Good luck!

I really like the 2 ink suppliers and the cost of ink is better than I had been paying. So far, 2 weeks, it has done everything well. The picture program that comes with the MP450 is great and easy to use. I'm happy!

Nice narrative. I am thinking about purchasing this product as a Sony package. I will post my own review when I get everything set up.
