Product DescriptionThe ultra-versatile PIXMA MP830 Office All-In-One delivers spectacular performance for the home and small office. It produces an amazing print resolution of up to 9600 x 2400 color dpi, for superb detail and clarity. To achieve this, Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) uses a next-generation 3, 584-nozzle print head that ejects precise, consistent droplets as small as 1 picoliter, for smooth, virtually grain-free images. The ContrastPLUS 5-color ink system-four dye based inks and a pigment-based black-ink-produces true-life photos along with laser-quality text. Plus, a 4' x 6' photo lab quality borderless print takes only about 36 seconds.With the large 2.5' LCD color viewer and easy control panel, you can evaluate and enhance images from your compatible memory card before printing! Or, you can print directly from your PictBridge ready digital camera or DV camcorder. With direct printing, you don't need a computer.This high-end office All-In-One does it all. The auto duplex Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) can read both sides of a 2 sided document, letting you copy or scan a 2-sided original without having to flip it over by hand! The ADF can hold 35 pages of originals at one time, making it much easier to copy, scan or fax multi-page documents. And when combined with the unit's dual paper trays, the ADF gives you the capability for high-capacity copying, even of 2 sided originals. The AE (Auto Exposure) Copy feature automatically optimizes reproduction quality based on the type of original you're duplicating. When scanning, the unit's high-resolution CCD technology enables you to produce exceptional 2400-dpi scans, with vibrant 48-bit color depth. And now, faxing: with the PIXMA MP830 Office All-In-One, you can achieve up to Super G3 fax speed in color and B&W. Plus, the expanded memory lets you store 100 speed dial codes, and receive up to 250 incoming pages.

Rating: - I'm ready to send it to recycling: it's an ink hog
I can't put up with this machine any more. If one cartridge is low on ink, or at least the sensor says so, then the machine quits functioning. No black & white printing unless you run out to a store and buy the ink cartridge the machine says is out of ink, when really, there seems to be enough ink left in that cartridge to shake out into a trash basket and it looks like there's a ton of ink left in the so-called "empty" cartridge. Plenty of ink there, but apparently not enough for the low ink ... Read More
Rating: - Very disappointed
Our MP830 failed after twenty months of very infrequent use. And we are not alone. Google error code 6A00, and you will see how our machine failed like apparently thousands of others. Apparently Canon's ink innovation of separating the ink jets from the ink storage containers was a miserable failure.
Rating: - Horrible printer - BAD customer service
I've had this printer for a little over a year. While it has worked at times, other reviewers are correct that it is an ink hog and it also has many technical issues.
My printer has had two bad print heads. I replaced the first one, then one day I turned on the printer and it says that "the print head is incorrect." If you are out of the warranty period the response from Canon "customer service" is to buy another print head. Basically, just keeping dumping more money into the faulty ... Read More
Rating: - Terrible quality
My husband and I have been using this printer for about a year now, and at least twice a week we say, this is the worst printer we've ever owned. The paper often goes through the printer at an angle, no matter what one does to keep it straight. This means that pictures and letters often print crooked on the page. In addition, the paper often crunches through the printing process creating an edge that is bent, scraped and deformed. If a person has normal sized arms, he/she can't reach the feed tray without ...

Rating: - Canon's MP830 (and apparently others) is an inkaholic
Too bad I had to give it 1-star.
I agree with the previous reviewer who suggests that you run (don't walk) away from this printer. I would extend that to suggest that you should carefully check out any Canon multi-function printer (MP printer series) for the following issues.
The Canon MP830 printer seems to be designed to guzzle color ink when printing in duplex (2-sided) grayscale (black & white) mode. In my opinion, this is a profit driven decision by Canon to extract as much ... Read More
