The extra tray works just like I needed! I like to recycle my used paper by printing "draft" items or "temporary" items on the unused back side of discarded paper, but I got tired of having to constantly change the paper in tray 1. Now, I load "scrap" paper in tray 1 as my default printer. I load clean paper in tray 2, so when I need a final copy of something, I just select that printer. I find that I''m actually using up more of my scrap paper and creating less of it in the first place. Perfect!

This review is for the 250-SHEET Tray for Officejet Pro 8500 Series, which I purchased May 10, 2010. This tray performed well on the first two printers HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-one Printer, but was not recognized by the software with the third one. It did work fine for copying for all 3 printers. (See my review of the Officejet Pro 8500.) HP does not seem particularly interested in supporting the full functionality of this tray under warranty. In frustration, I have pre-ordered Epson WorkForce 840 Color Ink Jet Wireless All-in-One with Fax (C11CA97201) (from Amazon, of course). The Epson has two trays built into it.

Good news. 1. Low initial price. 2. Good quality printing.

Bad news. 1. One foot long power cord. 2. Very low capacity cartridges (5 ml)mean very costly printing. 3. Only one cartridge (color) comes with the printer you have to buy a black ink cartridge $18. You can still print in B & W, but need to buy the cartidge.

This printer is exactly what I was looking for!!! Not too expensive, but it does the job perfectly! Don''t get it if you''re looking for amazing quality, high-capacity, specialty printing, etc. This is a great printer for regular home printing. It is pretty small, so it fits great anywhere, and it only uses two cartridges. So far, I haven''t had any issues with it, and I''ve printed a lot of different things. Color and black-and-white...not a speed demon, but fast enough. I would give it 5-stars, but we''re not talking the holy grail of printers here. If you need something simple to get the job done, definitely get this model!

it has great print quality and it''s really simple and cheap but the problem is that it runs out of ink really, really quickly so it''s probably not worth it.

In my opinion Hewlett-Packard makes the best printers and they have very good technical support. The printers are very easy to install, operate and maintain. I was especially glad that I bought this printer because it came with the Tri-color cartridge which prints beautiful black and white docutments as well as great photos. What is even better is that the Tri-color is less expensive than either the black or color cartridge. I am very happy with my purchase

I''m now on my 3rd CRG-104 compatible toner cartridge, and if there is any difference between this cartridge and Canon OE, I can''t tell. Note: this review pertains to CRG-104 cartridges ordered from "TheFactoryDepot" -can''t vouch for anyone else''s merchandise.

I was deeply skeptical of aftermarket cartridges, so much so that the first 4-5 replacements I bought were genuine Canon. Still, I print easily 1,000+ pages a month, and at $70 a pop, the cost of Canon OE cartridges for my MF-4150 laser multifunction printer was really starting to add up. I figured that for 1/3 the cost of genuine Canon these cartridges were worth a try. Thousands of printed-pages later, I would never go back to being so shamelessly ripped off by Canon. There is something wrong with this world if this no-name company (I have no idea who actually makes these things) can sell a cartridge this good for 1/3 the price charged by Canon.

One caveat, the cartridge is rated to print 2,000 pages at 5% coverage, but in reality prints only about 1,400 pages. I attribute this to the fact that "5% coverage" is actually pretty skimpy and a typical densly-worded page of text is closer to 10-15% coverage. Anyway, the OE-Canon cartridge turned out roughly the same number of pages before going dry. Now, for the cheap among us (and if you''re buying this cartridge--and still reading this description--there''s a good chance you''re pretty friggin cheap) it''s possible to squeeze out about 150 extra pages after the printer tells you it''s empty by removing the cartridge and shaking it in the same manner as when you first installed it (plus a little side-to-side shake for good measure).

*** June 20, 2010 By way of an update, I''ve now been using these aftermarket CRG-104 cartridges for well over a year and still can''t tell the difference between these and Canon OEM cartridges.

*** This is a 9/20/2010 update to my previous posted review ***

I need to echo on the 9/5/2010 review by another user. After 200 pages of print, I start experiencing black dots on the edge of my printout. I will try cleaning my print path, but I am pretty sure that is due to the toner. Amazon, I think you need to do some quality control in terms of the product being sold here. I have to say I am quite disappointing after my initial excitement.

*** This is my original 9/7/2010 review ***

My product is from Factory Depot. I just installed the replacement toner in Canon D480. After one day of use (~80 pages), I cannot tell the difference between the OEM and this toner. Please remember this comment is based on one day of use (~80 pages). As for my starter toner, it only lasts 900 pages. Let''s see if this one can last 1800 pages. If this toner does not live up to standard for 1800 pages, I will definitely update this review.

I''ve owned laser printers since the mid 80s when they cost as much as a small car (really). I have always purchased branded toner from the printer manufacturer. HP printer = HP toner. Canon printer = Canon toner etc.

Until this purchase I had never bought one of these "knock off" compatible toner cartridges. I wondered if maybe I was a sucker, paying too much for toner, so I figured I would give this a try there are plenty of reviews with people saying the quality is the same as the OEM branded product.

Wow what a mistake this purchase was. The first 50 or so pages looked OK but then they started to have a small black mark every inch or so down the side of the paper. Now all of my prints have a thick black smudge every inch down the right side of the printed page.

So, into the trash can with this toner (after only approx 200 basic pages) and off I go to buy the more expensive Canon branded toner that I''ve never had any problems with. Maybe I was unlucky, but I don''t feel like gambling any more.

I ordered two of these cartridges and both had problems. One had horizontal lines every inch or so and the other had little boxes going vertically down the left side.

Abacus was great about delivering and returning the cartridges. I guess I''ll stay with OEM.

I am actually excited to be writing this review.

I bought my HP 6940 on an amazing on-line special/blowout deal (forty bucks with shipping brand new) after seeing the replacement cartridge for my older (and worn out) HP printer was MORE than a brand new printer, shipping included.

I literally thought I would be better off just buying whatever new printer was on special from whomever at free shipping than ever pay for an HP Ink Cartridge again. I was disgusted by the thought of the waste and absurdity of the environmental impact the HP (and all other printer manufacturers) Printer pricing policy whereby they sell their printers at very low prices (with a brand new sent of ink cartridges) knowing once you own their printer, they can charge so much for the replacement Ink Cartridges.

Personally, I am VERY PHOBIC OF: ''Reconditioned'' ''Recertified'' products in general, paying for shipping, as well as on-line retailers who I don''t know for sure have a good return policy.

Given extensive on-line searching for an HP 96 Black ink cartridge, I was on the verge of just finding another blowout of any printer (I saw some other brand recently for $24.99 with shipping) but checked out the ''Other Sellers'' of the same product and the radical difference in price for the ink cartridges from totally unknown sellers who charged shipping and had various ''recertified'' ''reconditioned'' wording (all my phobias together) I gave it a shot, expecting the worst, and prepared to take the loss of $9 over the ridiculous options of paying for a brand new cartridge at the lowest price with free shipping/and or actually buying the $24 dollar brand new printer.

THE CARTRIDGE ARRIVED IN 3 DAYS. POPPED IT IN. WORKS FINE. (I am a very light printer user ... so I can not give any info about how long it will last)

I Semi-Randomly chose ''SOPHIA GLOBAL'' based on lowest price+shipping and customer rating.

After placing the order I got a confirmation including a friendly worded message acknowledging ALL my own personal concerns and phobias (so I gather a lot of people feel the same way).

Even better, when I replied ''great confirmation'', they actually personally replied back.

UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING (I CAN''T IMAGINE), I would recommend trying the option of other sellers and other ''condition'' of the products and I stand behind ''SOPHIA GLOBAL'' among the sellers from my own personal very happy experience (The others may be the same or not ... I don''t know).

THANKS SOPHIA GLOBAL! Will look to you for all future Ink needs.

oh .... it did not arrive in a box as pictured. it was just a regular shipping bag via US mail and inside was the cartridge in a professionally looking sealed plastic printer ink cartridge. There was a protective transparent sticker across the print head (just like all brand new ink cartridges) and couldn''t be happier (one less box to recycle).

Canon Pixma MP470 Photo All-In-One Inkjet Printer (2177B002)

Canon Pixma MP470 Photo All-In-One Inkjet Printer (2177B002)
  • Versatile unit prints and scans both photos and text
  • Precision ink nozzles for high resolution up to 4800 x 1200 color dpi
  • Scans with resolution of up to 2400 x 4800 color dpi
  • Prints 4 x 6-inch photo in approximately 46 seconds
  • Dimensions: 13.9 x 6.7 x 17.7 in. (WxHxD); weighs 12.8 pounds; 1-year limited warranty

The MP470 is a superb value at under $90 and is a very flexible tool. It has excellent text output, decent photo output and a useful scanner/copier.

* Easy to set up and use

* Great for home and school

* There are better choices for business and photograhpy

* A little noisy

Seriously, the text output is fantastic. I''m back in college and have had to print out over 1000 pages of PDF''s for my classes this quarter. My workhorse 4-yr old Canon i860 printer was fast and could use cheap non-OEM inks but it often made for very hard reading which wasn''t worthwhile. This quality of the MP470''s text on plain paper rivals that of the HP 5000-series Laserjets at work.

I seem to average a little over 220 pages of text (which includes images) from the CL40 black ink cartridge. That''s nearly 9¢ per page, which is not spectacular. For general use I prefer printers which use two cartridges (one black, the other tricolor) as opposed to 4,5, or 6+. It may cost a little more but it''s so much easier to keep track of spare cartridges you will inevitably have to keep on hand.

The LCD is easy to read and the media card slots are handy but as someone who uses Photoshop to at least sharpen the images I print, the card slots aren''t used much at all.

The scanner is OK, not great but not bad. Documents scan and print clearly, photo''s are OK. I have a Canoscan 8400 and it''s much faster and accurate but it cost twice as much as the MP470. I think for school and household use, the scanner is fine. For serious photo scanning, a dedicated scanner will be much better.

My one criticism of this printer is the noise. Not as loud as dot-matrix but it''s louder than any printer I''ve used, including the MP160 (which my partner uses for her work). There is a quiet mode with a timer, so you can make the printer quieter (and slower) during certain hours of the day.

I have a certain disdain for all inkjet printer manufacturers for adopting the "Gillette" model; sell the product near cost and earn the profit on the consumables. Not only is this deceptive model for the purchaser of a printer but I think it encourages waste by making many printers ''disposable'' compared to the cost of ink. My 2¢... Having said that, Canon seems to be the best of the bunch right now. Due to their design, Epson has head-clogging issues and higher per-page output cost. HP has very lightfast ink but their non-business models always have paper handling issues. Lexmark is undistinguished (and Dell inkjets are just Lexmark printers that have no Mac compatibility).

This is an excellent printer for those of you who will only use it occasionally. It has fast printing & the print quality is excellent. If you plan to scan only once in a while this will do the job. If you are a heavy scan feature user look for a printer more specific for that. I use this to print directions, some pictures, boarding passes & to make scanned PDF documents. It has worked great for my needs. If you are a heavy duty printer user I would suggest one of the higher end Pixma models.

Canon Pixma MP470 Photo All-In-One Inkjet Printer (2177B002)

After reading the rave review in one of the leading computer magazines I was anxious to try the MP470. The magazine raved about the outstanding scan results attained by this equipment. Since my primary need was to scan photographs this sounded like the one for me. The MP470 is an excellent printer and produces great results, but its scanning capability is not good. Perhaps my unit was flawed since the results I obtained were poor. I tried various adjustment to improve the clarity but to no avail. I have returned the unit to Amazon and purchased another brand.

I don''t have much to add to what others have said about this printer. It truly isn''t as good as a $400 unit, but remember it costs under a hundred bucks, and for that price it is a Very good printer. A few things to watch out for, though. First, in common with a number of other Canon consumer printers, the paper feed is not very good. Specifically, there is no tray. You mount the paper almost vertically in the back, where it is held up by a retractable support. The feed is combination of gravity and internal mechanism. Mounting of the paper is critical, or it will feed slightly at an angle which will be noticeable on your output. Certainly not a show-stopper, but just keep in mind you need to be precise in how you put the paper in. Second, you are guaranteed to break that support I mentioned if you aren''t particularly careful. The paper still feeds OK if you do, but then paper mounting is even more critical and you may have to load less sheets at when you refill. Finally, it takes the printer a while to get itself ready, especially if it was powered up recently. Once it gets going it''s plenty fast, but it isn''t uncommon for that first page to take 15 seconds to come out, and I have actually seen it take almost 60 seconds to start after the job is sent (all were B&W, short text only), which can be annoying on short documents. Once it gets going, though, print quality is outstanding for the price.

UPDATE:

In the above review I talked about the sensitivity of the paper feed and that support in the back that can break quickly. After having used the printer for five months, the output quality remains excellent. However, the paper feed has become a bit more sensitive (and the support did break), so while it''s still a good printer, the annoyance factor is up a bit. Also, still unable to figure out why sometimes it prints instantly and sometimes you have to wait 25 seconds for the first page to start (even same document on different days). While I''m not so upset that I would dump the unit, this does wear on you at times, so be aware. Still, it''s only 90 bucks...

Okay, so I had 2 all-in-ones, both HP''s, in the past. Both of them lost their ability to scan and copy, so the all-in-one became a one-in-one. HP''s customer service dept. claimed that they had corrected the problem on their newer products, but wouldn''t/couldn''t refund or exchange these 2 broken ones. I hesitated on the Canon for that reason, but after seeing the reviews and witnessing what it could do, I have to admit that I am IMPRESSED!

The first thing I printed was a color photo from a file on regular paper, regular quality and it is sharp, yet the colors are beautiful and it was instantly dry a perk for the home user! The second thing I printed was a scanned black and white photo (at an impressive 1200 dpi) on glossy Kodak photo paper and it looks like the professional photo I scanned! I was able to make wallets from a 5x7 and no one would ever detect that I did it from home.

I did print some black text on regular paper and the quality is just about laser.

I am SOLD! I highly recommend this for your photos, flyers, invites or anything that you print from home and people will think you had them professionally copied.

The style of the machine is sophisticated and sharp and the BEST THING IS there are no buttons for my 2 year old to push!!! Until he finds the door for the LED, but that hasn''t happened just yet. ;)

This printer does NOT print this size, which was a real disappointment but has nothing to do with the paper. But you will likely not find a printer that prints borderless 11 x 14 so this paper may not be for you. A real surprise to me...check your printer specs before buying. But the quality is very good....nice lustre and weight.

Very nice off-brand, moderately priced paper I truly appreciate the "luster" finish (semi-gloss) of this inkjet photo paper great quality for the price. I use the Canon color profile settings (Pixma PRO9000) although Inkpress has their own settings for this paper available online, the Canon''s rendition is better suited for quality photo printing.

  • Up to 2,880 x 720 dpi resolution
  • Uses 6-color quick-drying inks for smudge-free results
  • Prints directly from digital camera memory cards
  • Standard USB interface; PC and Mac compatible
  • Supports a wide variety of media including roll paper

The 785EPX was very easy to set up, I followed the simple "poster fold out" instructions. I hooked the 785EPX up as a second printer for printing photos using a USB cable (you will need to purchase one). Took less than 15min to set up. I have not used photo software in the past so the included software seemed just fine. I was able to easily manipulate pictures, create greeting cards, calenders, etc. The price of the 785EPX is very competitive! Okay last but not least the print quality is excellent! It is very difficult to tell the difference between the 785EPX prints and photo shop prints....these may be even better! A couple of side notes: I did a great deal of research before buying, the 2 most common "cons" were: 1) printer drinks lots of ink, and 2) printer is noisey. Don''t let this deter you.....printer cartridges for the 785EPX are very reasonable, and as far as noise....it''s an inkjet printer.....it should make some noise!

FYI I Ordered the printer from Amazon Sunday evening, received it Wednesday morning, great service thanks Amazon.

Buy Epson Stylus Photo 785EPX Inkjet Printer Now

This is my second Epson printer. My last one, before purchasing the 785 EPX, was the Stylus 850. I had no problems with the print quality of that printer, but the printheads clogged on a regular basis. Just after the warranty expired, the printheads clogged for good, and the printer was rendered useless. I brought it in for repair at the computer store where I purchased it, and was told that the heads could not be unclogged. I decided to try once more myself, before throwing the 850 out, and low and behold, it worked perfectly! I used it for a few months afterwards, with no problems, then I moved, and put the printer into storage for several months. Of course, after not using the printer for a while, I experienced the same printhead clogging that I did in the past. I decided that it was time to buy a new printer. This burned me up. The thought of shelling out more money to replace a printer that went bad from NON USE! After extensive research, I chose the 785 EPX. I was amazed at how much ink it consumed, after only a couple of days of use. After I printed only 8 prints (8x10''s) the color cartridge was near empty. Epson puts a computer chip in their new cartridges, which makes them very costly (in my opinion). I did find after market cartridges for the EPX for (dollar amount) (...), but this is still way more than the (dollar amount) I paid for the 850 ink cartridges. One month after getting this printer, I went on vacation for 3 weeks. Now, the printheads in the EPX are clogged. I am livid! I performed 12 cleaning cycles with no luck. I do not like the fact that both the black and the color cartridges are cleaned together...no option to clean them separatly, using more ink than need be :( I called Epson, and the Tech person immediately offered to send me 2 free cartridges to help remedy the clogged printhead problem. I was happy about that, but still angry at the fact that I have to be a slave to this printer (all Epson printers?) for it to function. I don''t do a ton of printing, just occasionally. It''s my opinion, that this printer is not made for occasional use, however. I guess if you don''t mind starting the printer up every few days, to keep the ink flowing, all the power to you. Just hope that there is still ink left in the cartridge when you want to make a print, as just turning the printer on uses ink to prime the heads. What good is exceptional print quality, which this printer supposedly has, (I have not seen it yet) if you can''t get the printer to work? Good luck to all the Epson printer owners out there. I will look for another brand.

Read Best Reviews of Epson Stylus Photo 785EPX Inkjet Printer Here

I recently purchased the Epson 785EPX following a positive review in "Outdoor Photography" magazine to replace my HP 952c. I''m a semi-professional photographer starting to do more work in digital, and like to use the ink jet copies as proofs to see how images will print. The quality of the images is very good. I haven''t had any problem with color matching, poor printing (vertical or horizontal lines) or jamming. If you really want photo quality you have to use photo paper. I mention this in case someone is just starting and is unsure about the difference. I''ve also done a fair amount of "regular" printing, and have been very happy. While photos print slowly (the HP was a bit faster, but the Epson''s quality is better), letters and pages from the web print very fast, and are quite clear and professional looking on regular ink jet paper.

The ability to make prints directly from the printer without using the computer is very cool. You can easily make an index print (thumbnails) of all the images on your card, or a selected folder. I did find these images to be a bit too small to be truly useful, but I''m sure there has to be a way to change the size (I hope!) It comes with a PCMCIA adapter for a Compact Flash card which plugs into the printer. If you use different media, Epson will trade you the CF card for what you need.

One minor problem with printing is that it uses ink at a much faster rate than my HP did. Plan on buying a replacement cartridge soon. Epson gives you the ability to order supplies through the printer software; clicking on the appropriate button takes you to Epson''s web site. A replacement cartidge from Epson is about ($$$).

The software that comes with the printer is excellent. There are, as always, some extra programs you may or may not find useful. The printer''s software controls are very clear, easy to access and provide many useful printing options, such as easily being able to change the type of paper being used (regular paper, matte photo, glossy photo, etc.)to maximize results.

I really have only one big complaint: This thing is noisy. All the ink jets I''ve ever used were whisper quiet. This is loud enough to interfere with conversation, and it makes noise for a while when first started, before printing and while printing.

In brief, if you''re willing to deal with the noise (I am, so far), this is an excellent machine for the price. Because it has features that I haven''t explored yet, I think that it has enough depth to please all but those who demand high end performance.

This is my third printer and my first Epson and I bought it based on the reviews on Amazon. My other two printers were HP''s and I still have my Deskjet 952C but I do considerable printing and I wanted the Epson for the increased flexibility the second printer brings. The Epson was very easy to set up but remember it only uses USB cable to connect to the PC. The printer is a little bulky compared to some of the newer printers on the market today so be sure and check your available space for the printer. Photo quality is very good and is better than the HP 952C with the colors deeper and prints photos with surprising speed. You can print from the PC or from a compact card from your digital camera. The printer comes with a PCMCIA adapter and Epson offers to exchange the adapter for a SmartMedia adapter or a Memory Stick adapter. Printing envelopes is a snap but you do have to take the paper out but I think it''s a minor inconvenience. You can print up to 52 borderless snapshots at a time on roll paper and the printer comes with a roll paper adapter. I''ve not had an opportunity to try out the roll paper yet but I think the concept of roll paper adds increased flexibility to the printer. Black and white document printing speed is acceptable and is about as fast as the HP 952C. The only downside to the printer is the noise the printer makes while loading paper and printing or, perhaps, I didn''t realize how quite the 952 is. At any rate, the noise was not such a problem that it caused me to deduct a star on the rating. I''ve not had the printer long enough to develop an opinion on ink usage. Inkjet cartridges for color and black ink are reasonably priced on the Epson website and are less expensive than HP products but I''m still unsure of overall ink usage. I''ve had no problems with the printer since sitting it up and feel it''s a very good all round printer and would recommend it for the home/office user.

I''ve been a happy Epson customer since 1997, and when it came time to look for a photo printer I really only wanted to look at the Epson line. I did research others, though, but I kept finding excuses to favor Epson over any other brand.

And I''m not disappointed. When matched with Epson papers (especially the Premium Glossy Photo Paper), the output is better than all but the most professionally produced studio prints. And I can do it myself.... easily.

The internal card reader is a nice feature if you want to print directly without waiting for the PC to boot up, but it also transfers the photos to the PC without the need to hook up your camera.

All in all, it''s worth every penny!

HP Photo paper is by far the best of all the paper I have used, and not just in HP printers. My ... Epson Stylus, when set to its highest resolution, prints just as well as my ... HP photo printer on this paper, although not nearly as fast. The paper has far more to do with the quality of the image than the printer, and this is the best paper you can get.

You can not get better color from your computer printer for pictures then by using Hewlett Packard Glossy Paper. HOWEVER

unless you live in 30% Relative Humidity year round it will wrinkle like a lasagna noodle. Bite the bullet and buy the much more expensive Premium PLUS Photo Paper unless you want to keep your pictures under glass or only show them in the winter. Please note, under glass does not mean in a frame, they will wrinkle there also.

Sharp AL2040CS Digital Laser Copier, Printer, Scanner Save 40% off

Sharp AL2040CS Digital Laser Copier, Printer, Scanner
  • Up to 16 prints per minute via USB or network connections.
  • Two, 250-sheet paper trays to easily handle multiple paper types and sizes.
  • 50-sheet automatic document feeder for quick duplication of large documents.
  • Full color USB scanning up to 9600 dpi for accurate image scanning.
  • SharpDesk is an innovative software solution for managing scanned documents and images.

The sharp AL series copiers are a fair bargain for the price, have good print quality but fair reliability. I have purchased three of these types, and they last 2-3 years of heavy used before dying, normally a gear strips out.

Toner cartridges are incredibly easy and cheap to refill, and the drum lasts forever, just look up the reset code for your model on the internet when it wants to be replaced.

For the cost, its a great buy, but think of the printer as a consumable if you are giving it heavy use. For home use it should last forever.

I love this copier. This is our second Sharp copier. It is a great value and the options have helped me to efficiently manage my time. The document feeder, two side copying, full color scanning feature, etc. are excellent! This has been a great addition to our small business. I highly recommend this Sharp copier.

This is one of the noisiest, most annoying printers I''ve ever had the displeasure of using. The guy next to me has one. We joke about the squirrel inside. It is always chirping and grinding. I despise the thing. Most everyone here does.

Print quality is fair. Speed is not good. The dumbest thing is the wake up/sleep button is the same as the copy button so if you are a little impatient like me you''ll end up putting it to sleep rather than getting the copy you need. If It were up to me I''d throw it out the window.

Our Dell blows this one away.

This is a fair copier, print is good, not great. Works as advertised.

However, very slow to warm up, and very slow to make copy after the copy button is pushed. Even if you just made a copy 20secs ago it will still sit there for 10 or more seconds warming up before scan and copy begins again.

Second big pev is curled paper, yuck!

these two problems are enough to drive me crazy!

I bought a Sharp-AL2040CS. Besides being advertised as a multifunction device, it also serves as a print server, a feature that makes connectivity much easier. But while the manufacturer claims that this device is a multifunction printer, copier and scanner. they should label it as a copier, maybe a printer and possible a scanner.

It can copy. Printing drivers are for windows (sorry, no Mac drivers) including Win 7, NT, 2000, etc but NO 64bit, so if you have a 64 bit OS you will NOT print, simple as that.

The web access software is so primitive that is useless. Scanning is impossible unless your are connected through its USB.

My advise, if you just want to copy, buy a simple copier; if you just want to print buy a laser printer, if you just want to scan buy a scanner; but if you want to do the three tasks with a single equipment DON''T buy this one.

Avery Easy Peel Address Labels for Inkjet Printers (08660) Save 45% off

Avery Easy Peel Address Labels for Inkjet Printers, 1 x 2.625 Inches, Clear, Pack of 750
  • Only Avery offers the Pop-up Edge for fast peeling - just bend the sheet to expose the label edge
  • Clear labels virtually disappear when applied to white and colored surfaces for a professional, custom look
  • Use Easy Peel mailing labels for your return address or as identification labels for photos, folders and books
  • Avery Wizard Software for Microsoft Office allows you to easily import data from Excel, Outlook and more
  • Only Avery offers the Pop-up Edge for fast peeling - just bend the sheet to expose the label edge

We bought these to use on our save-the-date cards and wedding invitations, and they worked out great. Just the right size for regular envelopes, and the look was exactly what we were going for.

One suggestion if you''re not using the whole page of labels, and want to use the remaining labels later, take a piece of white paper, and tape it over the labels you are not using. The labels get darker every time you run them through the printer. It''s hard to notice on the page, but once you affix them to the envelope, they can look a bit dirty.

This size of address label has many uses. Of course, they can be used for addresses on packages and envelopes, but also as identification labels. I printed a sheet with my name, address and phone number to attach to things I take on vacation. The print on my inkjet printer was clean and crisp, the ink dried quickly (no smudging), the labels indeed do peel easily and I like the translucent background that works with many surfaces. Word 2010 had the format in its list of labels and each label was perfectly aligned. You can also download free templates from Avery''s web site.

These address labels are such time savers! I am getting married and was thinking about paying a lot extra to have the company print my return address on the backs of all the envelopes but figured I''d give this a shot before ordering. I''m so glad I did!

I thought figuring out how to line everything up on microsoft word would be a huge hassel but if you go to www.avery.com all you have to do is look up the labels you are purchasing and they provide a free download of "avery wizard" which allows you to simply input whatever addresses you need printed and configures microsoft word accordingly. It also has the option of either filling the whole page with the same address or putting a different address in each block. No hand writing a million addresses for me!

I have to give this product 3 stars because these labels are not "super clear" more closer to "clear-frost". My definition of "Clear" is, whether the envelope is pure white or colored, you should be able to apply this label and unless you catch the address at just the right angle, you may or may not see a glossiness where the label has been affixed.

Why is this such an important point?? Well, we used these labels for our wedding invitations and RSVP cards. We spent top-dollar on some premium cream-white envelopes and expecting the label to mostly vanish since it was clear, it did not. It leaves a "clear-frosted" solid-rectangle of the entire label. I''ve seen other types of "super-clear" labels and you can barely see the edge of the label and the rest of the "truly transparent" label simply vanishes, except for the printed address. These exact labels are not like that, they are not truly transparent. We felt the appearance "cheapend" our hard work on the invitations and premium envelopes we purchased. We felt it was somewhat false advertising for the ''clear'' part.

Also on the easy peel part, these labels were no easier to unpeel than any others we''ve used, in fact, all of the constant "easy peeling" somewhat crinkles the rest of the labels. The description for this product says, "... bend the sheet to expose the trademarked Pop-up Edge for fast peeling and fold the sheet back to flat" yea, do this 20 times and you''ll no doubt have crinkles in your other labels. So I somewhat disagree with the "easy peel" marketing.

So my rating of 3 stars is for my comments above, the rest of my review is to help out fellow Amazon-ers and is NOT related to the 3 stars above:

Note: if you are using these with standard white envelopes, yes you''ll be fine, just be forewarned if you use non-white envelopes.

I did ruin 2 sheets because they misfed, even though they were perfectly aligned in the paper tray, so I''m not blaming Avery, as it could have been the printer''s paper-feed mechanism. To save you from ruining a sheet, I found the best way is to select Manual Feed and print only ONE sheet at a time; do not load multiple sheets as they could get misfed. Once we loaded one sheet at a time, we were fine. I was careful not to force the paper into the paper-feed, rather, allow the printer to gently pull the individual page of labels.

I did use the 8660 code inside of Microsoft Word and the template of labels was a perfect fit when printed (and when I fed the labels correctly).

These labeels are easy to print and if you follow the avery formatting you have no prblems in using them. They do not distract from the envelope and can be used for multiple purposes.

Inkjet Station Satin Canvas Glossy, 13"x19" 20 sheets

Inkjet Station Satin Canvas Glossy, 13''x19'' 20 sheets
  • Includes 20 Sheets of 13x19 Inch Premium Satin Canvas
  • 350g/19mil.
  • Bright White Base Creates Highly Saturated Images
  • High Resolution Coating Providing Photographic Quality
  • Compatible with aqueous wide-format inkjet printers (Thermal and Piezo) including Epson, Canon, HP, Roland, Encad, Novajet, ColorSpan, Mutoh, Mimaki

You can get some spectacular results by increasing saturation &/or vibrance a little in your photos prior to printing on this canvas. This canvas provides a startling level of vibrance making photos printed on something like canon''s platinum papers look flat and dull, whereas images printed on this product just POP off the canvas! I HIGHLY recommend this paper to those looking to print on canvas! (I used a Canon ix6520 printer to print on this canvas).
