The good: Very inexpensive; allows for manual control of photo enhancement; built-in IrDA; lots of layout options; decent print speeds; good graphics and photo print quality.
The bad: Text and scan quality should be improved; can't use PictBridge port as a USB port for external storage devices; lacks a feature to automatically save contents of a memory card to a PC; lacks dye-based black ink.
The bottom line: The Canon Pixma MP510 is a middle-of-the-road photo all-in-one, but we like what you get for the price.
