Strengths: Seperate ink cartridges, cost, cost,.....COST
Weakness: None yet! I'm very happy with all functions and results.
I replaced an HP 1115 with this printer for a little more than the cost of two new ink cartridges for the old HP. The HP sucked ink like mad! I have tried printing some photos and have had very good results so far. The I560 is definitely much faster than my old HP too! So far I'm a happy camper. You can't ask for much more for under $100!
Strengths: Nice quality of digital pic printing, separate ink cartridges for each color
Weakness: Takes a while to start up (self-cleaning/preparation time) when beginning a new print job
I replaced my HP Deskjet 930c with this printer because the cost of a new HP color cartridge was about the same price as this printer! I bought this printer for the purpose of printing digital pictures, and so far it has been well worth it. The pictures come out nice and fast with great color quality on the relatively low grade photo paper that I have.
Strengths: Reliable, VG text printing, virtually jam-proof, One jam, cleared easily, and restart button gave good results.
Weakness: Long, noisy start-up, with 30 seconds of whirring and clanking, ending with a jerky paper grab. Color not as good as my former HP; disappointing results with photos. Ink cartridges don't last long.
Flimsily built machine; I immediately wanted my HP printer back, but it was dead. With mail, you have to remove paper from tray, and place envelope in tray alone. Sometimes it whirs and groans on it's on, noisily setting itself up for the next job. Text Printing is noisy & jerky, but the results are very good. See-through Ink cartridges are easy to change, and software gives on screen pop-up...
Strengths: Low cost, it quickly prints beautiful color photos from my computer or directly from my Canon digital camera, it comes with easy to use software and it's not an ink hog.
Weakness: None so far.
I needed to replace a two year-old HP "photo quality" printer. The price was right, the photo prints are quick and outstanding quality. Black and white prints are great too. I like the top paper feeder as it doesn't curl my photos or other paper projects like all HP's. It's quiet and very fast for the quality of output. I tried an Epson C82 and returned it immediately. What a noisy, poor quality...
Strengths: Efficient ink utilitization with 4 ink wells. Good photo prints.
Weakness: None so far
We really like the function of this printer. We have it on a home network (off of a PC) and it is working great. Colors are rich, photos better than expected (on photo paper), and four ink wells should be a standard on ALL printers. For $85, you'll be hard pressed to beat this printer. YMMV, Steve
Robust, easy to use, reliable. These are just a few adjectives to describe my impression of the Canon i560 Inkjet Photo Printer. I have had my fair share of bad experiences with printers (other mfg), so I was very pleased with the performance of this piece of equipment. I highly recommend it as a cost effective utility printer for the home.
Strengths: Speed, print quality, economy, size
Weakness: Doesn't look as cool as the i860 but it's more compact. Warranty is only 1 year.
The Canon i560 is a great printer. Print quality both text and photo is the best out there for its price and it even beats other more expensive printers. Printing speed is excellent. Don't know why a few were having problems but it was a cinch to setup. The individual color cartridges saves a lot of money since you only have to replace just the color you need.
Strengths: It can shut off automatically and turn on automatically when a print job is sent to it.
Weakness: There doesn't seem to be a way to continuously monitor ink levels as it seems it only warns you when the ink is low.
I bought this printer as well as the dlink dp-300u print server because I didn't want to have to turn on one computer to print out from another one and it seems to perform this function very well. I haven't printed any photos out on it yet but I don't really plan on using it for that as it is more cost effective to print them out at Walgreen's. I'm quite impressed with the speed as well even...
Strengths: Excellent quality printing, fast, and very quiet.
Weakness: None so far
Only 2 weeks, but so far the Canon 560 is really impressive. By comparison, my similarly-priced "best-rated" HP was noisy, used lots of ink, gave only so-so results, and then lost its mind after a year (only a 90 day warranty anyway...): Bye-bye HP. For the price, the Canon 560 is a major deal!

Canon Bubble Jet i560 Photo Printer
Strengths: Easy set up. great text and superior color photos. Quiet compared to old HP 660. Does not take up much room. Can be used with an old style printer cable so a USB cord is not required.
Weakness: None so far.
I was going to buy one of those new HP 8 color printers at close to $300.00 to do photos. When I saw the qaulity of the prints produced for the price I changed my mind. I like the transparent ink resurirs so I know when the ink is running out. The ink is less expensive too. I ran some photos on Kodak glose paper and they were great. Prints should be even better on Canon paper. I was looking at...
