First off, if you're in the market for a printer, you can't go wrong with a Canon. Canon printers consistently beat out the competition in independent tests for print quality. Their items are elegant, well designed, and most importantly, ink is affordable.We all know the razor and blade scheme: sell the printer below cost and make it up with pricey cartridges. Canon, however, saves you a lot of money by including the print head with the printer and not on each cartridge. Because of this, genuine Canon cartridges can be had for around $12, while 3rd party cartridges, which many claim work just as well, can be found for as low as $2.If you've already decided on a Canon multifunction, lets see which model is right for you. Canon's current market list is as follows:MP130 - New model, and the most affordable yet. Copy/Print/Scan 18ppm black, 13ppm color 2 ink tanks No auto sheet feeder! Card slotsMP390 - Has a fax, About half the cost of the MP7xx's. Copy/Print/SCan/Fax 18ppm black, 12 ppm color 2 ink tanks card slotsMP750 - Older model - exactly the same as mp780 but no fax. Copy/Print/Scan 25ppm black, 17 ppm color 5 ink tanks Built in DuplexingMP760 - New Model - geared towards photo enthusiasts. Copy/Print/Scan + Special Photo Features 25ppm black, 17 ppm color 5 ink tanks No auto sheet feeder! Built in Duplexing *Unique photo features: 2.5 inch lcd screen Built in film adapter for 35mm slides or negatives can print directly from negatives Card slotsMP780 - Does it all except for the mp760 photo features. Copy/Print/Scan/Fax 25ppm black, 17 ppm color 5 ink tanks Built in DuplexingNow, let's look more closely at some key differences between these models:*Fax: The first thing you should do is decide if you need a fax or not. If you do, you should choose between the MP780 or the MP390. If not, don't rule those two out just yet, they may have have other features you can't live without.*Note: There is NO auto fax/telephone switching on these models if you wish to use the same line for faxes and voice calls.*Number of ink tanks: The next important thing you should look at is whether you want to be able to replace each color individually or not. The MP750, MP760 and MP780 all have 5 individual ink tanks (photo black, black, cyan, yellow, magenta), while the MP130 and MP390 have only 2 (black and tricolor). The cost of each cartridge is about the same, but you will waste some leftover ink by throwing out the MP130 or MP390's color cartridge when just one color runs out.*Photo printing: If you're planning on printing a lot of photos, you should probably go with an mp7xx. These have a superior print head, as well as the 5 separate ink tanks. The MP760 is especially noteable with all the features Canon has added specifically for photos. These come at a price however, as the MP760 does not share the auto sheet feeder of its MP750 and MP780 cousins, or the fax of the 780.*However - If you plan on printing directly from memory cards, beware! The mp750 and mp780 do not have card slots! The 2 cheaper models and the mp760 do.*Auto sheet feeder: The mp130 and mp760 do NOT have an auto sheet feeder. All 3 of the others do. An auto sheet feeder is very useful when doing a lot of scanning or faxing.*Duplexing: The mp7xx models each have built in duplexing.*Size: The mp7xx models weigh around 30 pounds and are quite big. The MP390 is a smaller, and weighs 18 pounds. The mp130 has a tiny footprint for a multifunction printer, and weighs 14 pounds.Some features that all of Canon's current MFPs share:*Copying: Each of these models has a copy function, and all have the same resolution (600x600 black, 1200x1200 color).*USB 2.0 connection*Pictbridge direct photo printing support*All 5 models are great looking and will complement almost any decor.My recommendations:If you want a great price on an excellent printer and don't need a fax: MP130If price is an issue but you still need a fax: MP390If you can afford an MP700 series and don't need a fax, card slots, or the MP760's photo features: MP750If you need its exclusive photo features (but no fax or auto sheet feeder): MP760If you can afford an MP700 series and need a fax (but no card slots and none of the MP760s photo features): MP780

We simply love this thing. We had been looking for a all-in-one for a long time. Late last year, we settled on the Canon MP730, only to find out that it had been taken out of production. Then we saw pictures and stats for the MP780 on Canon's website. Well, after several months of waiting (due to production issues I believe), we finally got ours a few weeks ago. It is amazing in every way. First, it really looks neat. Like another reviewer mentioned, the automatic door for the paper is kind of neat (I just wish it would close when the printer goes into sleep). Scanning and printing quality is fantastic. The document feeder is a godsend (nice for scanning stacks of documents). And to top it all off, the machine really feels solid. Not like some of those creaky models by other manufacturers. I really recommend this printer.

After owning a Brother MFC (garbage) and a HP D145 (a work horse but mediocre print quality) I decided to upgrade to the Canon MP780. What caught my eyes was the double sided feature that until now was exclusive only to HP machines.Print quality is excellent as the MP780 is basically a Pixma photo printer. The borderless feature is great. It accepts paper from two (2) sources. From the back, in almost a straight path which allows you to print on heavy card stock, and from a cassette. This is a rather big plus.BUT the MP780 that is sold in North America is crippled because the ones that are sold in Europe and Asia can also print directly on CDs/DVDs. I looked inside the machine and I believe that mechanically the machine should be able to print on a CD (even though the special CD tray is not provided it would be easy to make one) but the driver does not come with this option (I tried using a UK driver but it recognized that I have a US machine). Maybe a creative programmer can un-cripple the drivers? That would be awesome!Scanning is good, not the fastest in the world but acceptable with good quality.Copying, which is a factor of scanning, is also good in quality and descent in speed (but I've seen faster scanners)One small issue is that black copying in draft (fast) mode produces a faded result. I suspect this is because the unit is using the dye-based black cartridge as opposed to the pigmented black cartridge (this machine has 2 black carts) . Since I am a refiller of carts, I plan to refill both black cartridges with pigmented ink which I believe will significantly improve the faded look.For non-refillers simply copy in normal quality and you'll get excellent results.Faxing is fast and beats my HP D145.This is a multi function with emphasis on the multi, and can multi task where possible. For example, while faxing you can also make a copy or print etc, while my HP D145 can't chew and walk at the same time.The only other significant issue with this unit (other the crippled direct CD printing) is the software. It is short of acceptable.For example you cannot setup the fax from your PC. You have to use the machine and the tiny LCD display to set it up. Because the LCD is small instead of using full terms they have codes for everything and one ends up getting lost in menus and submenus with weird codes and terms. The question is why? Why can't I set the darn thing from my PC? Also when faxing from the PC the address book is paltry and does not provide an option for a cover page or to look at faxes I already sent.Hopefully someone from Canon will read this and maybe will decide to write better software. It's not too late just release an update.Canon includes additional software to browse and print photos and documents but I don't use it.Finally it does not have flash memory slots. It does have a USB slot in the front but it is only compatible with Pict-Bridge cameras. Regular USB devices cannot be connected. Thumbs down to Canon for being proprietary.Best of all the price is surprisingly low especially for all the features.All in all I would give it 4 1/2 stars, but I gave it a 5 since Amazon does not have 1/2 stars.
