Steve's Digicams Review
Rating: N/ALiked: The ultimate paper saver - the iP4000 features a built-in duplexer. It can easily print on both sides of plain paper or 2-sided photo papers....Not only can the user replace the individual ink tanks, you can also replace the entire print head if necessary....Looking at the printed output it's difficult to justify buying a dedicated 6- or 8-color photo printer, it's amazing what Canon is doing with just three colors.
Disliked: None
In Short: For your everyday text and color document printing tasks the Pixma iP4000 is an excellent printer and it's very fast. It's also very quiet and one of the most versatile printers that I've used in some time.
Bios Magazine Review
Rating: N/ALiked: Dual paper trays; automatic duplexing; CD/DVD printing
Disliked: No Bluetooth or memory card readers; poor on regular paper
In Short: ...you do get dual paper trays, automatic duplex printing, CD-R/DVD printing functions, as well as impressive output quality on high-quality paper, making the PIXMA iP4000 a good value offering if you intend to print mostly 6x4in.documents.
Pocket-lint Review
Rating: 8 out of 10Liked: Its appeal is that it prints photos and documents well without making your home look like the local branch of Prontaprint....Testing the iP4000, we managed lab-quality borderless photos to A4 size.
Disliked: The U turn tray works less well with A4 because it has to be extended to take the paper and so sticks out beyond the front line of the printer which spoils the minimalist lines of the printer....Printing with the default settings gave us fast results but the quality was poor. Fonts were breaking up around the edges, particularly so with bold type.
In Short: This good value printer should be popular with home users. It handles two everyday, essential print jobs - photos and documents - as well as being designed to fit snugly onto a bookshelf. We don't think PIXMA will become the design icon that the company's IXUS cameras are, but Canon has started the ball rolling and there should be plenty more colourful printers in the future from all the manufacturers.
