Reviews of the Canon Pixma MP160

    CNET Review

    August 29, 2006

    The Good: Inexpensive; excellent prints; PictBridge port; relatively cheap printing costs.

    The Bad: Subpar scanning; dearth of features; lacks media card slots.

    The Bottom Line: The entry-level Canon Pixma MP160 is a decent all-in-one printer for the price, but don't be tempted by the entry-level machine: the Pixma MP180 costs a mere $10 more and provides the same print quality and a ton more features.

    Review Summary: The Canon Pixma MP160's everyday print jobs came out crisp, while scans are above-average but with limited resolution. The lack of a memory card slot could be an important omission.
