In addition, I love how Canon treats customers and Mac users. I had a problem about a year ago with a Canon, and I was really impressed with the company. I called them and they gave me the option of either taking it to be repaired at a local Canon repair station, or to have it replaced. I opted to have it replaced. They overnighted me a brand new Canon, *and* a complete set of new ink cartridges. They had me keep the old ink cartridges and had me put the old Canon in the box the new one came in and they had FedEx pick up the old one. Total cost to me $0, plus I got a new set of ink cartridges out of the deal and I got to keep the old ones. I was only without my Canon for a day! My Canon Pixma is also a joy to use. I can't believe how well it performs for the price that I paid for it. ___________________________________________ Randy B.
