From: Tim S. on 29 Apr 2005 13:23 I've been thinking about buying this printer and was curious if anyone has one yet and what your thoughts are about the build quality and images it produces? I have a old Epson Photo-1270 and have had the heads clog up on me but a little Windex has always cleared them for me and after years of use it still prints as nice as day one. I have read about how nice the Cannons are as far as prints go but the longevity of those prints concern me. Your thoughts please and thank you for your time. Tim

From: Walter on 30 Apr 2005 00:37 I've had mine about three weeks now. Initially I had banding for a couple of first prints. I think I shook up the ink too much. But, now the prints are great. Everything jumps right out. My privious printer is the 780, similar to yours except the smaller version, same problem here with clogging, but great prints after windex. I almost went with he canon i9900, but permanance issues I heard about. I talked to a lot of people with the R800 and its been out over 6 months and no one with clogging. I have not had my R1800 long wnough to find out about clogs. Prints are great though!
