Canon PIXMA MP500 Review - Advanced performance doesn't stop there. AE (Auto Exposure) Copy feature automatically optimizes reproduction quality based on the type of original you're duplicating. When scanning photos or graphics, you'll see high quality 1200-dpi reproduction with vibrant 48-bit color depth. Plus, advanced paper handling provides you with several smart options.
The dual paper path allows you to keep photo paper stored in one tray and plain paper in the other so you can print photos or documents without having to switch paper. You can even print 2 sided reports, saving paper. Large 2.5" LCD viewer, direct printing. With the large 2.5" color LCD viewer you can evaluate your images in beautiful color, then enhance them before printing! Just insert your compatible memory card into a built-in card slot and begin viewing. Long-lasting photos with smart individual ink tanks.
The Canon ChromaLife100 system combines the Canon PIXMA MP500 Photo All-In-One's FINE print head technology and newly developed inks with select Canon photo papers, with results rivaling that of many conventional photos. And with the new smart LED ink tanks, your LED lamp flashes when ink is running low, and flashes even faster when nearing empty.
