outpost CANON i350 BUBBLEJET USB PRINTER for $29.99

I got an i450 last fall. 3rd party ink tanks are cheap (<$2.00). Quality was decent. However, the problem with these Canons is that the ink tank is separate from the head. It is actually superior in my opinion because new tanks do not need to have heads on them, but it has one major caveat. If you don't have sufficient ink in a tank or just plain don't use the printer for a month or two (say a summer break from school), the ink will dry up in the head and the entire printer will be trash.

I went ahead and bought a laser printer after I figured out that my i450 wouldn't be in service for school. It's really up to you.
 
nice deal. i have it... fast, photo quality if you use canon ink (esp with glossy paper), and cheap enough to be disposable.

fyi, i also had the i320. the i350 has better dpi.

you can't go wrong ~

2 months is not that long and the printhead could have been cleared. You should have looked for info on the net.
 
I have an i350. It's quite decent. Bought it retail for $50 a while back. It came with a color and a black cartridge, and new cartridges are less than $8 at Staples. All in all it's quite good, and the cheap ink means my old Lexmark will just sit in the closet (a Lexmark ink tank costs about $35, which is now more than a i350 with color/black included :roll: ).
 
Resellerrating of 3.37 is over the past 6 months, lifetime is 7.51.
They must be going downhill pretty fast.

Almost jumped on this till I saw the ratings.
