Just bought a Canon Pixma MX7600. Everything was fine till I tried to install the fax and DRPD (Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection) only to discover that it was not available in the UK despite my phone provider (BT) having this service. This is just so poor, on a machine of this price this is just unacceptable. I contacted the technical support but they were absolutely clueless. Really disappointed. I think I am going to send it back to get my money back!I would certainly advise not to buy this printer!
I bought this printer for it's compatability with Linux, and while initially I had troubles using it under Fedora Core 6 (x86_64), I found a cure to get round it at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=214189 . I tried it with a few other flavours of Linux including Suse 10.1 (x86_64), Ubuntu, and Knoppix and it worked straight away. Simply download the latest version of the driver from the Samsung website, and follow the instructions. The scanner also works fine and the copier does not even require a computer.
The print quality is fantastic for my purpouses (student) and it's speed is very good for the price. It comes with a starter toner cartridge but no USB lead.
Under Windows, it installed fine and comes with ... Read More:

I work at home and have struggled with printers in the past but this one really works for me. I can only go on my own experiences but this does it all.
I do a little bit of design and because of that I have high standards and as this faxes, prints, scans and copies all in colour; it has saved on the little trips to the local printers. I am yet to have a problem with it. It comes with loads of additional features that I haven't really gotten round to using yet but the more gadgets the better in my opinion.

I've had this printer for over 6 months for business use. It's been very reliable and copes with printing up to 80 sheets a day on a regular basis.
It does seem to get through ink rather quickly hence 4 stars rather than 5.
Other than that I'm happy with the quality, ease of use and reliability and think it's a good product for the price.

Do not buy this printer if you only speak English!
On the product description everything seems lovely but when your brand new printer arrives and you open the box. The french instructions, cables and faceplates hit you like a fly-kick from a frogs leg.
Of course nowhere on the product description is France mentioned o no, in fact its stated as "Localisation UK" and the company is of course Pixmania UK!!!
I had to go out and but an adaptor plug for the french cable. The pathetic piece of plastic they call an adaptor is ridiculous. All the button and instructions are also in French so I dont have a clue what im pressing!
Custmer service is also an abomination. they stick to automated computer ... Read More:
