Canon S400 Ink Cartridges

Canon S400 Printer Review

If you're more concerned about price than you are about output speed, the Canon S400 ink printer may be just what you're looking for. While extremely low in price, this printer offers an fairly low print rate of 6 pages per minute for black output and 4 pages per minute for color graphics which is lower than many inkjet printers. On the bright side, like the printer itself, replacement ink cartridges are relatively inexpensive.

Having separately replaceable Canon S400 ink cartridges – one for standard and photo – also saves you money in the long run; only replace the ones that are running low. Print resolution is certainly respectable at 1440 x 720 dpi. It weighs 18 lbs. and measures 16 inches wide, 6 inches tall, and 12 inches deep with the printer tray in place. The 100-sheet paper cartridge handles 20 lb. card stock, envelopes, photo paper, transparencies, gloss and standard paper, and iron-on transfers.

Parallel and USB connectivity is featured and the printer is compatible with both Apple Macintosh and Microsoft Windows operating systems. Networking is optional via external network print servers. The printer offers an optional IS-32 scanner cartridge driver and includes standard printer driver software and networking guide.

The Canon S400 inkjet is best loved for its price. It is the senior model in a line of accomplished Canon inkjet printers but certainly has a well-earned place in home offices. And, in comparison to similarly priced competing models, its photo quality wins hands down.

With fair reviews on both output rate and quality, the low price and output versatility appeals to the home office or recreational user. Ideal for school reports, personal documents, photos, etc. Users will find quality results at an attractive price.
