Reply #3: Canon S820

[Longhorn]

I've had it a couple of years and it prints great photos -- even 8x10s. It uses six individual ink tanks so you just replace the color that has run out instead of the entire cartridge. I do about two to three dozen family calendars of my photos every year so it gets a great workout once a year!

I replaced an HP Photosmart printer. I had great results but when something went wrong with it, it was impossible to get fixed because HP wouldn't release the parts to repair shops -- and it was only 18 months old at the time! They "offered" to sell me a reconditioned printer for $499, which was not only more than mine cost, it was more than the latest Photosmart printers were selling for. Needless to say, I will never do business with HP again!
