Advanced Canon quality. Incredible value. Its easy to use, fast and compact. Its an amazing value. And it will totally change how you print and share photos. With the Canon Pixma iP1500 Photo Printer, printing projects for school or for your family scrapbook will impress even the sharpest critic. One key reason is Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE). It uses an innovative 1,088-nozzle print head that ejects consistent and precise ink droplets as small as 2 picoliters. This patented technology produces outstanding resolution and clear, detailed images. Bottom line? More nozzles with higher accuracy equal better results. To further enhance printing quality, this economical printer uses a special pigment-based black ink for laser-like text on reports and e-mails, along with highintensity color inks for vivid photos and graphics. Youll be amazed at the results. OK, what about speed? This no-compromise printer is surprisingly fast, capable of printing up to 18 ppm in black and up to 13 ppm Less
