Since i got my new iP4700 last week, I'm already sick of it. It jerks off for several minutes every time you switch it on before it prints, and tells me it's offline whenever I send it a print job unless I manually switch it on. Of course to top it all off, it's a US model, which I discovered...

I'll throw this one out and see who bites on it:D. I just picked up Canon's Pixma iP 4700 for $45 on Amazon :lol: after having my faithful iP 5200 die (why don't they make their model #'s in numerical sequence :(:/???).

I just recently got a new Canon Pixma iP4700 printer to replace a Pixma iP5200 which died due to an electronic failure:(. Canon has always made a very good printer, but their inks are so expensive!:mad: I began refilling the CLI-8 original cartridges on the iP5200 using Hobbicolors UW8 inks...
