 Canon hits a home run June 19, 2009
Frank W. Keller (Berlin, MD)

This review is actually on the Canon MX320. It is the MX330's little brother. Both printers are identical except the MX320 does not have the color lcd screen, it has a 2-line dot matrix screen. Since I do all of my editing on my computer, and can't see much on the little screen anyway, I chose to save about $40. Either printer offers great value in my humble opinion.
PROS:
1. Photo quality equal to my Canon MX830. I don't know why or how but the prints look the same. Even better if you use Canon's "VIVID" setting in the Easy Photo Print software under paper selector.
2. The scanner reproduces colors and details that are very close to original and you have the option to touch up photos after scanning. Using the ADF you can copy legal size papers.
3. The fax options are not perfect but they work. This is the first all-in-one that I've owned that I can actually leave the fax running in the back round without it interfering with phone calls on the same line. Using the TEL Preferred setting the fax will start automatically if you answer the phone and it is a fax. This even works from a remote phone by dialing 25 if you hear the fax noise when you answer. Up to 50 (20 pages of documents) faxes will be stored in memory if you run out of paper or ink.
4. My favorite option on this printer is the fact that you can choose which cartridge to print from. This will save a lot of the more expensive color ink, especially from advertisements faxed to you. Simply follow these steps to print from black only:
a. Click on the MY PRINTER icon the software installed on your desktop
b. Click on the PRINTER SETTINGS tab
c. Click on the MAINTENANCE tab
d. Click on the INK CARTRIDGE SETTINGS tab
e. Choose from using BLACK ONLY cartridge, COLOR ONLY cartridge, or BOTH cartridges
The black only setting only works with plain paper and envelopes so photos will still print in color. Plus it takes only seconds to change settings if you need color in your text documents. This setting works great if you have teenagers that print everything they see.
5. You can fax straight from your computer without first printing the fax. Just click on PRINT and choose Canon MX330 Fax as your printer. The fax works just like you ran it through the printer, including printing a receipt if you have set this up on the printer.
6. At about $.05 per black and white page printed, using the XL ink cartridges, and the ability to print photos that will last up to 300 years I feel the print costs are reasonable.
7. I bought the MX320 after trying the Epson NX300. There is no comparison between the 2 printers. The Canon exceeded my expectations in every category. At $69 the MX320 (MX330) is an all-in-one printer that works perfectly for a small home business on a tight budget.
CONS:
1. The lcd screen on the MX320 is hard to read sometimes because there is no backlight. Luckily you only have to use it to set up the printer and fax one time.
2. There is only 1 paper tray.
CONCLUSION:
Every printer requires a compromise in some area. Users of the HP printers I was interested in are reporting problems with Windows Vista, which I confirmed on HP's own site. The Epson model I tried was noisy, slow, and draft text was barely readable. Not to mention I went through 2 Epson's because of print head clogging problems. Brother and Kodak printers are unknown entities to me, although I bought one of the first Kodak printers when they came out and returned it the same day.
I have had good luck with other Canon printers and I like their print quality. The MX320/330 seem to be following in the Canon tradition of good quality printers. Unlike many others, I chose a 2 cartridge print system on purpose. My Canon MX830 was an excellent printer but if you change inks one at a time to save ink it seems like you are changing inks 2 times a week. For the money I don't think you can beat the MX320/330 for an all-in-one printer with a G3 fax. If fax capabilities are not needed I would buy the Canon MP480 or MP620 as these are both excellent all-in-ones without the fax at reasonable prices.
Great ALL IN ONE for a Very Reasonable Price March 17, 2009

I decided it was time to upgrade my printer, and wanted to get an ALL IN ONE, since I was also in need of a scanner and copier. My previous printer was a canon printer ( i 960) , and since I was very happy with the quality and ease of use of that printer, I decided to stick with a canon product. After some research I determined that the new Canon MX330 would be perfect for my needs. This printer delivers as promised. It does a great job at all functions, and was very easy to set up. Photos ( when printed on canon's glossy photo paper) look great, and are near or as good as photo lab quality. Documents printed out come out very sharp, and the automatic feed feature for multiple pages during scanning/faxing works great. The Fax feature I could not test totally yet since I don't have an actual phone line, but use a "Magic Jack" line, and there are some issues when trying to fax using a "magic Jack" phone line. I am going to play around with the fax settings to see if I can get it to work through my "Magic Jack" line, but this is no fault of the Printer, since "Magic Jack" says its phone line may not work for faxing. The Printer is pretty large, so it does take up a fair amount of space, so make sure you have plenty of room before getting this model. For just over $100, and with Canon's Quality and performance, this is a great All IN ONE Printer to get.

Additional Thoughts:
***UPDATE 9/26/2009***
After receiving a flood of e-mails from people asking me for tips on how to refill the cartridge, I've decided to remove my e-mail from this review and include the instructions for your benefit:
Lately, I have been refilling the very same cartridge this printer came with. I've been fed up in the past with having to buy overpriced proprietary cartridges.
What you will need to refill:
1. Power Drill(Bought one for about $20-$30 at Home Depot
2. A thin drill bit (forgot the radius, I just went to Home Depot and asked for the smallest one available)
3. Black ink refill Kit (You can obtain one on eBay for $5-$10 depending on whether you buy in sets like I do. The kit will include an instruction manual, a syringe, and a small bottle of ink).
Instructions:
Create a tiny hole at the upper portion of the cartridge underneath the sticker where a small imprint is located. After making that hole, use a syringe and fill it with ink. Push the syringe needle through the hole you've created until you feel the needle pushing through sponge inside the cartridge. Squeeze the ink in gentley.
The only downside to this approach is that I have to go disable to printer monitor so that Canon's manual page counter can't force me to replace my cartridge. To do this, follow these steps:
Go to
1. Canon Utilities
2. My Printer (folder)
3. My Printer (application)
4. Printer Status
5. Option (top left)
6. Uncheck "Enable Status Monitor"
Last part:
Reinsert the cartridge back into the printer. The printer will still whine that the cartridge is empty. With the printer on, hold the "Stop" button down for 5-8 seconds. Whining begone.
Eventually this ink cartridge I've been refilling is going to dry out permanently one way or another. At that point, I'll be buying another one.
But you get the idea. Save tons of cash. Pay a few bucks for the price of the typical $20 cartridge.

Canon Pixma MX330.
I purchased my Canon All-In-One to replace an HP All-In-One. It prints a higher quality document, scans true colors , and faxes easily. In addition to the higher quality output I receive, the ink cartridges are much cheaper. I can ink my printer with both cartridges for about $38, and before one cartridge cost from $30 to $40 each. I have a small Canon printer for my laptop and was so satisfied I was anxious to try a larger printer for more functions. I was not disappointed.

It's a good machine.
Just tested it out...the thing copies well, faxes well, scans well and prints well. Nothing earth-shattering here but it does a good solid job.
A big plus is that it's intuitive and a person can accomplish most things looking at the color LCD and pushing adjacent buttons on the front panel. It also has intuitive support software.
It's not fun to pay big bucks for devices that are outdated by something better and cheaper a year later. For $85, this a great deal.
I could say a lot of nasty things about my last HPs but instead will simply say that this machine is already better. If it's trouble-free more than a few days past the warranty, unlike the HPs, I'll continue to be impressed.
