Canon S500 Ink Cartridges

Canon S500 Printer Review

The Canon S500 is a standard inkjet color printer with high quality and good speed. It has been discontinued by the manufacturer, but at one time it was among the most elite printers ever. Technology has become more intelligent, but 8-10 years ago the S500 was innovative and a crowd favorite. Its black and white color scheme and sloping modern shape catches the eye and sits well on any kind of desk space. It is aimed mostly at home users with an aptitude for photography, but small businesses could benefit from the professional images.

This printer has a 100 sheet input tray and a 50 sheet output tray. It takes less than 5 minutes to set up the Canon S500 out of the box, including print head alignment. It also has great software to help users explore other printing options such as PhotoStitch, which combines multiple pictures into a panoramic collage and PhotoRecord , which helps preserve lifelong memories in photo albums.

The high quality Canon S500 ink cartridges produce photos at an impressive 2400x1200 dpi, and if printed on special Canon paper, those pictures can last up to 25 years. This unit has four different tanks of Canon S500 ink and hundreds of nozzles to disperse the printer ink in thousands, if not millions, of droplets per inch. For high volume users, the Canon S500 ink cartridges thankfully have a high page yield, and replacements are affordable.

The Canon S500 is productive and efficient, as well as cost friendly. For less than $150, consumers get an at-home photo lab and for less than $20, they can refill the Canon S500 ink cartridges to ensure never missing a moment. Such a bargain on the machine and the printer ink sets the Canon S500 above any competitive inkjet printers.
