+ Having updated from the Pixma IP1500 which was also an extremely good printer I am still pleased that the quality is as good in the IP1800 if not better.
- The only bad point with this printer is the very highly priced inks compared to the IP1500 which I found relatively cheap. The printer was quite cheap to buy and I thought the inks would be a similar price to the IP1500 and was quite shocked when I did a search for inks for this printer as they worked a lot more expensive than my previous printer.

+ looks good ink lasts especially if you ignore the warning message that it is running low which comes on too early good print quality at the price easy ink refill procedure
- lacks print tray did not come with connection cable to pc which is very annoying after purchase

+ I bought the printer because reviews I had read were good for the use I wanted to put it to and I have found that it does everything I had expected. The print quality is average and the speed is slow but to print up the occasional directions, recipes and instructions it is excellent value for money and very easy to use.
- Noisy and slow to get started but fine once it does

+ good standard of printing at a decent price; colour cartridge is all in one rather than three seperates - for me thats better
- its not top of the line, all singing all dancing, but if you want that spend more moeny on a different printer

+ The print quality is ok and it was a cheap printer to buy
- It's noisy, takes a long time to print even black text documents and the ink cartridge doesn't last very long at all.

+ When it does start to print, it's extremely quick. It is also very quiet, unlike my previous printer.
- It seems to want to whir backwards and forwards several times before it will start printing. It could also do with a paper tray.

+ It's very good value for money, especially if you refill the cartridges, (it's so cheap to replace the printer you don't have to worry about negating the warantee by not using genuine cartridges).
- The print quality isn't as good as the pixma ip1500 but that model no longer seems to be available.

+ it's nearly a desktop printer - if there's nothing else on your desk
- its "footprint is way bigger than it need be; its "case" is shiny black, which shows EVERY possible fingerprint & speck of dust, the printer ink cartridges do not fit as one would expect, which is bound to lead to force being applied
