One small downside to it is that if you purchase it in the USA, those that are sold here cannot print on CD/DVD discs. |

It has that one possible advantage of using standard Canon tanks with the BCi-3ek being a pigmented black and a larger capacity tank for text printing. The Photo black is used for color prints as it is a 5 tank printer. From past experience the Epson may have the edge on reliability and uses totally dye based inks. All I can give you is the feedback from several hundred users of the JetTec cartridges and the Canon may - just may have a problem with the life cycle of its print heads. They can be swapped at around $70. The cheapest cost of ownership goes to the Canon currently as its tanks are easily refillable. The Canon hot bubble jet techniques are quite different to the cold electro fusion Piezo quartz Epson heads which could explain the possible lesser life expectancy of a Canon print head ??
