Reviews of the PIXMA iP90v Photo Inkjet Printer
-
CNET Review
The Good: Text quality has improved over the last version; very compact design makes it easy to carry with you; ink-saving modes can save you in a pinch; PictBridge- and IrDA-enabled.
The Bad: The printer is expensive, and add-ons such as battery packs make it moreso; photo print speed is slower than that of the older model.
The Bottom Line: The Canon Pixma iP90v is the Vista-enabled version of the older Pixma iP90 and offers nearly the same print speeds and quality. It's a very useful printer if you travel a lot and need to print often, but consider the purchase carefully because it's quite expensive.
