I have a Canon MX 922, and it's kooky. It's got separate CYMK tanks, plus a
second black tank for black and white prints. There's an LED underneath
the installed cartridge that glows red. Any low cartridge blinks.

I hate inkjet printers with the fire of a thousand suns, but I love this
one. It's got a scanner, 50 sheet feeder, separate paper trays for
regular and photo paper - so no swapping paper or paper hanging out.

Ink is $14 per set, and best of all - the printer was free!

I found it on the side of the road, brought it home, tried printing and
got an accordion jam on the exit side. Looked into the printer and saw
that a highlighter had fallen back there. Shook it out, and VOILA! free
printer AND free highlighter!
