We bought this Pixma ip90V because we have an older ip90 that we use quite a bit. We take it with us when we travel internationally. It packs easily. But since we spend a fair amount of our year in Panama, we thought it would be good to have one there. This new(er) ip90V uses the same ink cartridges as our old one so that was a bonus. We are very happy with the quality of the printer as well as happy with the printing itself.

When something seems to good to be true... I had one of these years ago, and I loved it. However, this printer didn't pair with my older Mac. I could live with that. My old Toshiba recognized it, but when I tried to print a document, the feeder on the printer insisted on running five blank pages before jamming. That happened about 20 times, and I finally just threw in the towel and called it a day. I considered donating it to Goodwill, but then someone else might spend money on something that just doesn't work. Darn.

It is compact and very portable, perfect for use with a laptop at other locations. Print quality is excellent and it can be operated from an optional rechargeable battery, giving the user total freedom from external power sources (with a laptop). On the downside, the ink cartridges have a very short life and the only cost effective solution is to buy generics in bulk on the internet. I have had mixed results from Canon printers in the past but to be fair I can say the same of HP and Epson. Portable printers like this tend to be pricey, about four times what you would pay for a comparable non-portable printer, but the convenience justifies the expense. I would not recommend one of these for someone who needed a home printer unless space was at a super premium.
I bought this printer for less than half the price that I would have paid in Israel for it even with the postage. I live in area that suffers from blackouts and the included car adapter gave me insurance. The main reason was to have a photo printer that would not take up too much space to record our first grandchild baby photos. Having performed the drudgeries of a color darkroom it was like graduating from a manual typewriter (for those who still remember) to a wordprocessor. The ink cartridges are expensive in Israel so ebay will probably be my source for consumables as well. Setup was straightforward. The first pictures were pinkos but the troubleshooting process cleared it up. This is definitely a niche printer for those who need a portable (I am still looking to buy a battery) small footprint printer that produces quality results. It won't compete with my laser but then the laser won't go along on trips. The power supply is multivoltage and will thus serve road warriors.Read full review
I have had this Printer for a couple of years. It is great for portability and the ink is fairly inexpensive compared to other printers ink. The DOWNSIDE is that after a couple of years you start to get an error message "waste ink absorber full" and you can override this message for about 2 weeks then the printer completely stops printing. It tells you to call Canon tech support. They will tell you to just buy a new printer. To ship it to them or take it somewhere to be serviced will cost as much as a new printer. Unless you are completely Tech Savy and can figure out how to clean it out yourself (taking apart the printer) and then figuring out what the reset code is....Canon NEGLECTS to tell you this before purchasing their product. SO, for a great portable printer for a couple of years this will be a good choice.Read full review
