Reviews of the Dell Photo 926 All-in-One Printer

    CNET Review

    June 6, 2007

    The Good: Multifunction printer with built-in media card slots and USB port; has e-fax capability; produces a scannable photo index.

    The Bad: Disappointing print quality; photo ink actually degrades photo quality; Dell's own photo paper doesn't produce the best quality prints; sluggish task speeds.

    The Bottom Line: The Dell Photo 926 is disappointing, even for a $100 multifunction printer. You can get a better printer for the same money.

    Review Summary: Secondly the driver CD which came with the printer installed Corel Photo Album 6 onto my system as the default jpg reader. This program takes ages to load and is not at all user friendly. I cannot see how to 'undefault' it from my system
