CNET Editors' review - Canon Pixma MP520
Hide

Very good

7.5

out of 10
CNET Editor's rating: 7.5 out of 10
Reviewed by Felisa Yang
Review date: 9/24/07
Release date: 8/21/07

The good: Great print quality; decent print speeds; two input sources; memory card slots and PictBridge port; manual control of photo edits.

The bad: PictBridge port doesn't support storage devices; slowish scan speeds; control panel doesn't offer an easy way to transfer images from a memory card to your PC.

The bottom line: The Canon Pixma MP520 doesn't offer all the bells and whistles found on other budget all-in-ones, but it's a solid device that does the basics right while delivering best-in-class quality.
