Canon PRO9000 review:
This is my first Photo quality printer, and is on PC-Photography's best buy list.
Things you'll need to know.
It's big! make sure you have the desk space, you're going to need it. If you already have a canon printer, which I did, when you attempt to load the software for the new printer it may stop at 35%. Don't be alarmed, it's finished because you're system is able to use the existing canon files. Just close it out and print away. Set-up and Printing is easy. I decided to use Kodak... more info

The subsequent replacement ink tanks are not lasting as long so I have to wonder if... more info
A Real Pro Printer!:
Just setup my Canon Pro 9000 printer this PM and couldn't be happier. The setup following the easy install directions went flawlessly. It took about 20 minutes including doing the print head alignment. I am waiting for a Eye-One monitor calibration device to be delivered, but I thought I would just try one of my high resolution prints from my Canon Rebel Xsi camera on Canon Glossy Photo paper for fun. It was unbelievable! The EasyPhoto Pro software is a cinch to use and it makes me wonder if I really need... more info
