"Great features for the cost."
Pros: Does a lot of functions and has a small footprint.
Cons: Doesn't have individual ink tanks for each color.
Summary: Australia CNET staff reviewer states it has a autofeed scanner. It definately has a flatbed scanner, much better for photos.
Just bought one for my son for Christmas. There's three colors in the color cartridge. My more expensive canon printer has 5 individual color tanks (photo cyan and photo magneta, the 2 extra) which I believe could out perform this printers photo quality and waste less ink. These new inks in the MP450 are suppose to make 100 year archival photos, so that's a plus. The high capacity color cartridge has 7 ml. of ink per color and the lower capacity cartridge has 4 ml. of ink per color. Office Max had both cartriges and the difference in cost was about $10 more for the high capacity catridge which was $38 but only $29 on Amazon.com. Canon printers do much better with thier own brand of photo paper. I think this is a great value for this printer, it's a sweet spot for someone on a budget who wants quality, compactness and ease of use.
