" ... I’ve had several “prosumer” photo printers. ... A Pixma 9000, Canon Selphy, various HP photo printers. ... But lately I wanted to print some 8 x 10 and or larger photos. ... I found this printer extremely easy to set up and start printing with. ... "

" ... I love this printer. ... Using either Canon or HP Premiere glossy papers I've been getting outstanding results. ... I've used professional lab 13X19 printers and roll printers up to 60" for years, and I find this Canon iP8720 a satisfying printer for hobbyist use. ... "

Since I started shooting again, I thought I would look for a photo printer. ... TKeep in mind this thing prints up to 13x19. ... as a i started to print more and more photos i started analyzing each print. ... The fact it has 6 inks helps, and it is a dedicated photo printer, doesn't make it a fair comparison. ... While i'm very happy with the cheap epson i purchased, which is very feature rich for the price, this is my photo printer now. ... At the end of the day This printer is designed for one thing, PRINTING PHOTOS. ... (and maybe high quality media such as flyers, etc) Yes you can use it for color printing, and basic printing, but without a scanner or an LCD screen, it makes this thing pretty cumbersome for an everyday printer if you don't plan on using it for larger format media or photo printing. ... Its definitely best suited for high quality color prints and photos. ... "

" ... The gray ink tank made a major difference in my B&W print output, I have little to no color cast common on printers with color + black ink cartridges. ... "
" ... I prefer changing individual cartridges as I tend to use a lot of magenta, so the cost is less than my last printer. ... "
" ... What was so amazing is how bright and glossy the ink was, compared the epson on its highest setting on the same paper. ... Which will save me ink on my epson. ... "
" ... I have to say that I like this printer better than my HP printer. ... "
" ... While ink is just about the same price. ... "
" ... I ordered this because of it's reviews and consumer reports (many different ones) and because I needed to replace my HP Photosmart printer. ... The ink cartridges are reasonably priced, and I've gotten about 100 4 x 6 photos printed so far and haven't even used half the ink that came with the printer. ... It seems like the gray cartridge will have to be ordered separately, but I'm expecting that I'll probably be ordering many cartridge colors individually depending upon usage. ... "
