It will print on cards, glossy photo paper, high resolution paper, iron-on transfers, luster paper, matte photo paper, plain paper, and semi-gloss photo paper

Like the other PIXMA printers that I have used, this printer makes excellent photo prints

The Pixma printers in general have printed some gorgeous photos and this one is no different

Software installation took a while and, as usual, be default you're offered some proprietary photo software from Canon.

What do you call a printer that provides decent photos along with customized printer options without taking up much real estate?

So I mostly use this printer for photo prints, which it excels at

All in all, this is a quick printer that prints great photos at a very reasonable price.
