Canon PIXMA iP8720 Wireless Inkjet Photo Printer

I've only been using this printer for a week or two and so far I'm really pleased with the photos it prints. I've printed 7 or 8 8x10s out of Photoshop Elements and they are as bright and clear as anything I've ever gotten from a commercial lab.

I bought this printer because it had double the resolution than my old Epson Artisan 837, and can print 13x19. I've had my eye on the pixma pro-1 for a long time, and now there's a model even better, but the pro models are just out of my budget at this time so I settled for this printer.

I've now had this printer for about two months, and am pleased with it so far. I did not have the problems others reported in setting it up with my Apple desktop.I get very good enlargements to 13x19 and use the printer along with another smaller Pixma MG6320 for different kinds of jobs.

I've had this printer for over a year and the prints are great, easy wifi set up too :)
