Strengths: *Fast printing *Excellent quality text *Phenominal printing of photos *Easy setup *PictBridge compliant *USB 2.0 or parallel connection
Weakness: Possible weakness: Top-loading of paper, which *might* possibly in the future after regular wear and tear have feeding problems.
This is a great printer that produces excellent text and great photos. I was wavering between this printer and Canon's next higher i960 as well as the HP 7960. I've been using HP printers for 8 years, but since I wanted outstanding photo capabilities, I went with Canon. I met a Canon rep at the store and talked about the merits of the i860 and the i960. She even had identical color digital...
Strengths: Best quality and practical versitality for the price - photos look great and it's quiet too! Love the 4"x6" photo stock tray. The driver is wonderful - great software package.
Weakness: I haven't found any yet. The page per minute rating should be more like 16 ppm for printing text.
WOW! After a $30 rebate and a $20 coupon from Staples, I only paid $100 for this amazing printer. I love that you can replace the print head yourself (unlike the Epsons). The i860 is such an incredible improvement over my HP 832 at home and HP 970 at work. Setup was very smooth, and the printer is so quiet! I was a little concerned that this photo printer had only five inks, but the prints look...
Strengths: Fast
Weakness: Paper will not feed. Paper is crumbled every time.
After using the printer for about 2 months, it quit feeding paper through. Also, I sent Canon Support an e-mail. After two weeks, I still have not heard from them.
Strengths: fast, quiet, easy to use, user friendly software
Weakness: physical dimensions- wow! its pretty big! I need to buy a bigger desk.
I am somewhat color blind so please read the other comments listed for that information! lol What I can tell you is it is very easy to review and print any picture you have on your computer/disk in a .jpg format. Just point toward a file and it opens and displays the all the photos in that file. From there pick and choose what you want to print- click to choose your size, layout/format. Click...
Weakness: none
I love my i860 cannon printer. The pictures I print are very clear. This printer is very quite and fast. The reason I bought this printer is because of the 5 inks tanks. This is also my second cannon printer.
Strengths: Fast, Excellent print quality, Inexpensive/Great Value, Quiet... And did I mention how fast this printer can print both text and photos?
Weakness: NO USB cable included.*
(I've only owned my printer for 1 day but I have extensively researched this purchase as well as used other i860s prior to this. My comments stem from this.) This printer is a complete package. If you were to buy only one printer to do everything at home, this is the one to get. There are no compromises. Incredibly, it combines class-leading print speed with best-in-class photo quality output....
Strengths: Easy setup and maintenance. Excellent print quality and superb photo quality. Extremely quiet and fast. Individual ink tanks.
Weakness: None
This is truly the best printer I have ever owned. It is not only affordable but the maintenance is very inexpensive. I found a place on the web where I can purchase an entire set of cartridges for about $20. It is true that the ink monitoring goes from full to a warning replacement then to empty. Although it is not recommended to let an ink cartridge get empty, this printer first tells you the...
Strengths: Print borderless photos. Separate ink tanks and inexpensive. Can be used as a general purpose printer.
Weakness: The European module, I865, includes an adaptor for printing CDs and DVDs. Take a good amount of space.
I need a printer that can print high quality pictures to replace my HP Deskjet 930C. After doing some researching on the Web, I narrowed down to this printer and the I960. The I960 has 6 ink tanks and can print better pictures than the I860. The I960 costs about $40 more. After some thoughts on how much I would use the printer to print photo and the cost of owning either printer, I decided on the...
Strengths: Prints with good quality, very fast, inexpensive
Weakness: Ink monitor drops from full to empty in one printout.
I had been spoiled with Epsons ink monitor that dropped gradually(full, 3/4, 1/2, 1/4). I was very disappointed to see that the ink monitors read full, then after one page, they said empty. I had expected they would drop gradually. It doesn't give you much time to shop for a good price on cartridges as the printer says you will cause damage if you continue to print after the cartridges read empty.
The Canon i860 is an advanced, color inkjet printer built for professional-quality photos and presentations. It utilizes Canon’s advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology, which uses an advanced 1600-nozzle system to eject consistent prescribed-volume droplets as small as 2 picoliters, for nearly grain-free images. This allows the i860 to output a maximum resolution of 4800x1200 dpi in color,...

Canon Bubble Jet i860 Photo Printer
Strengths: Good quality BW and Color. Cheap Ink. has a seperate black specificly for text that saves cost.
Weakness: can take a while for the file to begin printing
I highly recomend this printer to the average user. It's very versitle. It prints great pictures. It can handle large text printjobs. I really like having seperate color tanks and the large test black tank is great for students. At $120 it can't be beat
