  Nice printer October 1, 2008 This printer is quiet, quick and high quality. The set up is reasonable but not foolproof. It works well in a wireless environment shared between several printers.
  Great Printer September 30, 2008 I ordered the MX850 to replace my Pixima 780 which I loved because I needed the printer to be on the network. I read several reviews of people who had problems. A few things to note: 1. You will need a USB cable (that isn't included) to setup the printer on the network the first time. 2. Make sure you install the software PRIOR to connecting the cable.
If you do this, then you shouldn't have any problems. I love the printer, it is smaller than my old 780, and it produces better quality prints. The printer is a little noisy, but I expect that from a ink jet printer.
  Awesome printer... September 24, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think the Canon Pixma MX850 is great. There's a bit of a learning curve to figure out some of the features and somethings you may have to refer to the manual in order to use them until you familiarize yourself with the printer. I made sure I used all of the functions of this printer and everything works well. I'm really impressed with the speed in which all the functions are carried out and the print and scan quality. The Canon Pixma MX850 has a lot of positives but this product is not perfect so of course it has some negatives.
Positives: - All the controls are in the front. You don't have to get up out of your chair to do anything. Everything is at your fingertips. - It's wireless. I've got my MacBook hooked up to this printer wirelessly, though it wasn't an easy setup. However, the Canon rep. I talked to was very helpful in walking me through the process. Once it was set up, documents print out flawlessly just as if it were connected to the printer via a USB connection. I also have my HP desktop computer hooked up via a wired network connection. - It takes most types of media cards so if you don't want to hook up your camera via USB cable and you would rather take out your media card and view and print your pictures that way, you can. - Prints quietly - The printer has a bright color LCD screen, which is especially useful when you put in your media card and you want to view or make any adjustments to your photos before you print them. - Fast 20-22 sec. 4x6 photo prints - Photos print out beautifully - Prints documents almost immediately, no long thinking or waiting time and they print out fast. One color documents print out fast even in the standard setting. - The text prints out clear and crisp. The ink drys fast so there isn't any smudging. - Auto two-sided printing(Duplex printing) - Comes with software that allows OCR(optical character recognition) meaning you can scan a document then the program will translate it into editable format. In other words, the document you scan in will become a text document that you can edit. Instead of having to type over a whole document, you can scan it and make changes to it once transformed into text format. This program is a part of the Canon Utilities bundle that is included with this printer. The bundle also contains other neat programs with a variety of features. - Too many other great features to numerous to name
Negatives(a very short list): - The size. The Canon MX850, as has been said, is enormous and very heavy. This printer takes up quite a bit of space on my small desk. Though this wasn't a deal breaker for me, I do wish it was smaller. Canon really has to work on reducing the size of their all-in-ones. - I also don't like the fact that when I open the lids of the print, whether it's the scanner lid or the cover that you have to open to put in the ink, doesn't slam down softly or smoothly. I always feel like I'm slamming them down even though I'm not plus the lids are not exactly light either.
Despite the size of the Canon MX850, it's very attractive looking and pretty easy to use. There are plenty of menu options for you to adjust the printer the way you want it to function. I even got it to work as a CD label printer by hooking up a a removable CD label tray. This can be purchased on the net. All in all, this is a fantastic printer with excellent features and I'm glad I decided to purchase it.
  Canon Pixma MX850 September 24, 2008 The printer worked well. It prints well and is very quiet. The scanner is not as good as some I have used before (HP). The set up took a while and when I was done I found the updates and had to do it again. So check for updates first. Needing a USB cable (not provided) for network setup seems inconvenient. The sheet feeder and the 2 sided printing are great features. I have not yet found a way to create a fax from a paper document and quickly combine it with an electronic cover sheet (something my old HP did). I would recommend this printer for the quality and the lack of noise.
  Great All in One Printer September 23, 2008 I am a fairly heavy user and have been very happy with this product. I print about 1500-2000 pages a month including fax. I have had the printer for about a month and have not had any problems. Set up was very simple. Print quality and speed are both great. It goes through ink pretty quickly - I just put in my 3rd black ink cartridge - but I don't think it's any worse than most ink jet printers, and definitely better than some.
The only negative I have found is the auto-doc feeder is incredibly noisy and sounds like it is falling apart. But it works fine.
This is by far the best All in One printer (in this price range) I have owned in the 10 years I've been in business.
