Canon PIXMA iP5000 Review
|
Review Summary
Reader Score: 6.86 (out of 10)
Automatic duplexing, dual paper trays with a combined 300-sheet capacity, tiny droplets, and decent speed make the Canon Pixma iP5000 a versatile inkjet option for home users who need both text and graphics output. As a four-color model, it lacks the cred and the quality to compete with real photo printers-despite Canon's Pixma marketing strategy-but its photo-printing quality surpasses that of most SOHO competitors, making it a great general-purpose choice. Pity it lacks built-in networking; we might have bumped up the rating into Editors' Choice territory.

| It hardly seems like yesterday when I reviewed my first Canon printer, the Canon BJC-8200 , in fact it was about five years ago. The BJC-8200 offered the user the new BCI 6 ink tanks and an ultra small print dot of about 6 pl. I have tested many Canon models since, and today I am taking a look at the PIXMA ip5000 printer. Interestingly it still uses the same BCI 6 set of ink tanks. That's were the similarity ends. Canon now offer an incredible print drop size of 1 picolitre. This small drop size, is almost invisible to the naked eye, and by using such a small drop you can dispense with the lighter colour inks. So lets take a closer look at this printer. |

| The Canon PIXMA iP5000 is near the top of the line in the PIXMA series, yet falls just under the $200, making it affordable for many consumers. The printer features Canon's next-generation F.I.N.E print head technology along with Canon's ContrastPLUS ink system. The print head and ink system are the same used in Canon's PIXMA MP760 that I reviewed in March, so I expecting a lot from the iP5000. |

| Canon's advanced new PIXMA iP5000 Photo printer breaks the print quality barrier with the industry's first 1 picoliter droplets to deliver the ultimate photo print quality. This PIXMA iP5000 printer has speeds to match it's quality. Print at up to 25 pages per minute in black and 17 ppm in color. Save paper with built in duplexing! Produce a beautiful 4"x6" borderless print in only 36 seconds. The new drive system is also much quieter. Dual paper trays allow you to print from both photo and plain paper. |
