This printer makes it easy to print and share digital photos at home.


With a sleek, slanted design featuring rounded corners and a space-saving low profile, the stylish MP160 livens up any home or small business office. As more and more consumers begin to familiarize themselves with the benefits of a multi-function unit for the home, the demands go beyond just having the best technology. Ease of use and reliability have come to the forefront. The MP160 is designed to be extremely user friendly while delivering optimum results time and time again.

Fast, Reliable Home Printing
The MP160 is a system that lets you get more done, right at home. It allows you to print beautiful, long-lasting photos, along with copies that are truer to your originals' images and text. The unique Z-Lid lets you produce clear, complete scans even of thick originals like personal notebooks. You can even print photos directly from a PictBridge compatible camera or DV camcorder -- no computer required! With home-office AIO printers becoming everyday household items and digital photography's popularity increasing by leaps and bounds, Canon has created a new generation of multi-function printers, like the MP160, that further link the photographic world to that of the home office. This multi-function unit harmonizes printing functionality and performance with imaging excellence and a sense of home decor/style, making it a great long term investment.

This four-color printer, with true-pigmented black and high intensity color inks, is ideal for printing text, web pages and photos. Affordable and cost-efficient, the MP160 offers resolution as high as 4800 by 1200 color dots per inch (dpi) and the ability to copy up to 22 pages per minute (ppm) in monochrome and 17 ppm in color. Borderless photo printing is equally fast: 4 x 6 inch photos print in less than a minute. For added convenience, the MP160 also allows for printing photos without a PC, thanks to the PictBridge port.

Sharp, Crisp Copying
The MP160 employs advanced copy technology to help give you vivid reproductions of original images and documents. Dual Color Gamut Processing Technology improves color accuracy by independently controlling brightness, hue, and other elements to make sure that there are minimal differences between the original and the copy. In addition, with Text and Image Separation Technology, the system can actually differentiate text from an image, making black text and fine lines darker and sharp. Now when black text appears over an image, the text on the following generations of copies can be virtually as clear as the first. These technologies plus hardware improvements in scanning and printing can help make a copy almost indistinguishable from the original.

Quick and Easy Scanning
Thanks to the MP160's multiple capabilities, there's no need to purchase a separate scanner that will take up extra space in your office. Instead, you can rely on this compact unit to scan with a high resolution of up to 600 by 1200 dpi (optical) and 19,200 by 19,200 dpi (interpolated). With a 48-bit internal color depth and the capability to deal with documents up to 8.5 x 11.7 inches, the MP160 will give you professional results in minutes.

ChromaLife100 Technology For Image Permanence
The MP160 uses the Canon ChromaLife100 system, including the FINE print head technology for great photo printing. When using select genuine Canon photo papers and inks, prints can resist fading for up to 100 years when stored in an archival quality photo album. The up to 100-year-lifespan rivals that of many traditional film based photos, long considered by consumers to be the benchmark for image permanence. Prints produced on Canon Photo Paper Pro with ChromaLife100-compatible inks have an up to 10-year gas fastness when exposed to open air. In addition, ChromaLife100 prints, when created using genuine Canon photo paper like Photo Paper Pro or Photo Paper Plus Glossy, have up to 30-year light fastness when displayed under glass.

FINE Engineering and the Inkjet Nozzle
Launched globally by Canon in 1999, the Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE) advanced print head technology is one of the keys to the impressive speed and high photo quality in Canon PIXMA photo all-in-one printers. Canon FINE uses a groundbreaking high-performance multi-nozzle print engine that ejects consistent and microscopic ink droplets. The results are high-resolution photos with detail and clarity in less time.

The MP160 comes with a one-year limited warranty.


What's in the Box

4 out of 5 stars so far so good...........2007-10-24

I have only used it to print a few documents - it's quick enough, not terribly noisy and installation and set up was easy as pie!

3 out of 5 stars It's an overall good printer for the money.......2007-09-17

This is a really good printer for the money, but if your looking for a printer specifically for printing pictures this would not be a good buy. The pictures come out ok, but my mother-in-law has a printing doc for her kodak easyshare camera and that's way better then this. This printer is easy to setup, easy to use, reasonable price wise, but it's not the best for picture printing.

4 out of 5 stars Great for the price!.......2007-08-26

To be able to print very good photos, scan documents easily, and get sharply printed documents from ink jets (in color no less) for under a hundred bucks is amazing to me. My machine operates flawlessly. Con: Ink runs out rather quickly especially in color, so pick your must color docs wisely. Cartridges aren't cheap.

5 out of 5 stars A very great printer........2007-08-01

This printer is very well worth it. It prints and scans very nicely. No paper jams, no ink smearing. The best thing about it is that this printer's drivers do not override the spoolsv.exe like many other printers do(cough*lexmark*cough). This means that this printer will not at all bog down the computer and works efficiently. The only *slight* drawback is that this printer uses quite a bit of ink to clean itself. I had only cleaned it once, and printed 2 colour images and a good chunk of the colour ink was gone. It also seems to clean itself everytime you turn it on. All in all though, it was a very good deal and is reccommended.

1 out of 5 stars Junk........2007-07-06

Really happy with it, worked great for a month or so...then it started jamming after every page. Plus the ink cartridges are small and expensive. Didn't get more than half a ream of paper per cartridge (@$30 each) with it set on mid-quality.

After a month of fighting with it (another great labor and time saving device), I tossed it and bought a decent B/W laser printer/scanner/copier with a 3500 page refillable cartridge. Cost more, but cheaper (and less painful) in the long run.

1 out of 5 stars Awful sound quality.......2007-07-02

The volume is so low on this phone it's almost unusable. The earpiece makes everybody sound like they're wispering.

1 out of 5 stars PAYING FOR PROBLEMS.......2007-03-03

This phone was nothing but a headache. Battery didn't last over night. Range distant was very short (couldn't step outside or in garage). Phone had to be set on base perfectly or it wouldn't charge. Easy to hang up when trying to balanced from shoulder to ear. Was returned within a week.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent phone for its cost.......2007-01-15

I have had this phone for about two months now and am pleased, altho I have since seen it priced cheaper elsewhere. I needed it because of my 2.4 GHz phone was interfering with my wireless network (or vice versa, I am not sure which). I have had no problems at all with the volume and it takes up very little room in my study, which is what I wanted. Overall, a very nice phone.

1 out of 5 stars Static, okay in small part of the house.......2007-01-04

This phone has terrible static in most places regardless of channel
change. It also had many dead spots. Okay near the base. Why
get a cordless phone??? Okay we do have wireless internet,
but the more expensive 5.8GHz is not suppose to interfere with this.
Worst cordless phone I ever purchased. In fact, soon to be returned!

3 out of 5 stars It works.......2006-11-26

Well I have had this phone for a couple of weeks now. Like the title says, it works. Nothing special about it, it does what its supposed to do, so thats good. A couple things that I didnt realize before purchasing are that there is no backlight for dialing besides the talk button. (this was totally an oversight on my part, not a misrepresentation of the phone). I also have a blocked phone number, in order to unblock it I have to dial *82. I normally store frequently dialed numbers with the *82 prefix into memory. I am unable to do this on this phone, because the * key, doubles as an exit key. Also the display is not the clearest. It is a 3 line display, the top line indicates time/date/call #, the bottom line indicates callers name. These are both in an easy to read bold face font. The middle line which indicates the phone number is in a totally different font that is hard to read. Size and reception of this phone are good. It also has a message waiting indicator light. Overall the phone is an ok choice.

You get a good offering of connectivity options:

    It also has an integrated 56K modem (V.90) and an RJ-45 LAN network port (for a 10/100 Ethernet connection to networks and DSL/cable modems).

    1 out of 5 stars DV6458SE - pile of junk.......2007-12-11

    I bought this computer with high hopes. So far, it's been nothing but a disappointment. I've had nothing but trouble with the wireless card, as well as the ethernet card. After 2 months of frustration, I've finally shipped the unit back to HP for repairs. I am giving the thing to my nephew. I am getting another Sony.

    4 out of 5 stars Reliablity and Speed.......2007-11-20

    I purchased this elsewhere just before school started, at a deep discount. I have to say I have no real gripes. The sound is excellent and the screen is one of the nicest screens I've ever seen on a laptop (seen hundreds). Now there are a few minor things that annoy.

    For one, I am OCD when it comes to fingerprints. This laptop seems to attract them more then anything ive used, especially on the lid. Another minor grip is the fact that the battery lasts on average 1.5 hrs for me. I read the crappy battery life is common among this model. Highly reccomend picking a a 9-cell.

    4 out of 5 stars great looks and performance is good.......2007-11-14

    good looks, and awesome screen, however, if you touch it, the fingerprint is there until you really rub it off (can only see fingerprint if light is shining on the screen directly)-can see fingerprints very easily all around machine. great keyboard and volume control on the top. vista is not so good-annoying-kills battery life-slows computer down. battery stinks- maybe 1 1/2 max-w/ power saver, screen down to no brightness and performance at lowest possible.tons of grippes on bottom-2 headset jacks-comes w/ a lot of junk-hd only 140gb even though they say 160gb-graphic card not so good-easy on/off switch for wireless

    all around it is a wonderful laptop-would strongly suggest it

    4 out of 5 stars I'm happy with it.......2007-10-20

    I brought this as a package with a printer and bag. It has a 160 gig drive with 2 gig memory. The screen is excellent, Vista Premium Home actually works quite well on it and it runs as fast as XP did on my previous one with 1 gig memory. Not too much 'crapware' included either. DVD burns quickly. Only fault I have found is the top does not actually lock into place. Very stange feature to lack in a notebook.

    4 out of 5 stars Complete review for model DV6425.......2007-10-16

    This is a review for the DV6425 US model. First, let me point out some sweet details:

    Design: Beautiful laptop, HP's fine imprint finish is really nice, and the Piano Black Color is elegant, it always gets looked at in public places.

    Screen: Simply perfect display. Really good resolution and colors.

    Media navigation: The keys on the keyboard for media accessing are simply excellent, it's like an ipod, you just need to put your finger on the play button without pressing and it starts playing, same for volume control, just slide your finger from one side to another. Really nice detail.


    Now, let's talk about the tech specs.

    Processor: Really good. Performance could be compared to a Pentium IV with 3.72Ghz of speed. Its dual core processors make multitasking really easy and smooth. I would REALLY recommend getting this model instead of the DV6426 with Intel, because this is a 64 bit processor, and with time, when theres enough 64 bit software, this laptop will be a bullet, while the Intel one, with its 32 bit processor will stay behind.

    RAM: If you install Windows XP and get rid of Vista, the 1GB that comes with the laptop is more than enough. However, considering that Vista uses OVER 500MB of Ram just for the OS, trying to play games at the same time is really hard, because it sucks most of the RAM memory. If you plan on playing a lot on this, get either XP or 2GB of ram for 80 bucks (use the kingston memory finder on this page to find the right one for you).

    Hard Drive: Not much to say, enough room for a LOT of stuff! 160GB is very good.

    Video Card: Definitely not a Highlight of the laptop. Is comes with 64 MB of dedicated memory with UP TO 287MB of shared memory, meaning it takes the rest from the laptops RAM memory. Again, if you plan on keeping Vista and playing games on this, GET 2GB OF RAM, else it wont be able to get more power from the Laptops ram memory (thanks to Vista's RAM abuse). But then again, compared to the DV6426's Intel 950 Integrated video card, you would really prefer to get this one (Nvidia Geforce Go 6150).

    I gave it 4/5 not because of problems with the laptop, but i would have loved that instead of coming with 2 512MB RAM sticks it would come with a single 1GB stick, making upgrading cheaper.

    One more thing: HP's online support is excellent. I sent them an email with some questions about the camera and they assisted me in every possible way, giving me some very good updates for the BIOS, even though i didn't even request it. Now my laptop works better ;).

    That's basically it. I pointed out the most important facts of this Laptop. Hope it helps you choose!

      Product Features:
      • Smooth, natural reproduction of skin tones New color coupler technology delivers exceptionally well-nuanced skin tones and ensures that all hues are consistent from highlight to shadow, regardless of density. Pro 160S offers a gentler tonal curve
      • Unsurpassed gray balance. Gray tones are reproduced with unparalleled neutrality and accuracy, even withina wide range of exposures
      • Significantly finer grain structure. The new film boast even finer grain than their predecessors, with an RMS granularity of 3 (vs. 4 for the current NPS 160 and NPC 160). The result is notably smoother, richer-looking prints, especially at larger sizes.
      • Single-channel printing. All four films in the new Fujicolor Pro line, despite their differences in speedand contrast, can now be printed in a single print channel
      • Optimized for digital scanning and printing. By combining excellent tonal qualities in a wide exposure range (-1 to +3 EV) and exceptionally fine grain, the scanning characteristics of Pro 160S and Pro 160C in digital printing systems, such as Fujifilm's Frontier digital lab system, dramatically improve.

            Designed to provide on-the-go productivity and entertainment to fit any budget, the Toshiba M205-S7452 notebook PC weighs just over 5 pounds. The 14.1-inch widescreen display offers TruBrite technology for optimal image clarity and a 1280 x 800 resolution for extra desktop working space and a widescreen aspect ratio for watching letterboxed DVDs. This affordable notebook PC is powered by the 1.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T5250 processor, which offers a 20 percent performance boost over its predecessor while using 28 percent less power--so you get the benefit of a powerful dual-core PC plus all the benefits of mobility. It includes Intel's 4965 AGN wireless LAN, which will connect to draft 802.11n routers and offers compatibility with 802.11a/b/g networks as well.

            Other features include a 160 GB hard drive, 1 GB of installed RAM (4 GB maximum), integrated 54g wireless connectivity, Intel GMA X3100 graphics processor with up to 256 MB of shared video memory, multi-format/dual-layer DVD burner, and 5-in-1 memory card reader. Additionally, this Toshiba notebook is RoHS-compatible, effectively reducing the environmental impact by restricting the use of lead, mercury and certain other hazardous substances.

            This PC also comes preinstalled with Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium, which includes all of the Windows Media Center capabilities for turning your PC into an all-in-one home entertainment center. In addition to easily playing your DVD movies and managing your digital audio library, you'll be able to record and watch your favorite TV shows (even HDTV). Vista also integrates new search tools throughout the operating system, includes new parental control features, and offers new tools that can warn you of impending hardware failures.

            The Basics

            Screen, Video & Audio
            This notebook has a 14.1-inch TFT display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels (native 720p for high-definition viewing). It also provides TruBrite technology, which makes images brighter and more vivid thanks to its anti-glare feature. Video is powered by the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100, which uses shared video memory (up to 251 MB allocated from the system memory) and provides Windows Vista Aero interface support and enhanced 3-D graphics performance--delivering over 2x scores on 3-DMark 06. Intel Clear Video Technology provides outstanding video playback with sharper image quality, increased clarity, and customizable color controls. It also enables enhanced visual quality of interlaced content on progressive displays.

            Networking, Connectivity & Expansion
            Be ready for the next platform in wireless connectivity with this notebook's integrated quad-mode Wi-Fi chip. Based on the draft 802.11n Wi-Fi specification, it offers up to five times the performance and twice the wireless range as existing 802.11g wireless. It's also backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks (commonly found in home routers and Wi-Fi hotspots) as well as 802.11a networks (which has a higher throughput, but more limited range--great for closed office environments). You get a good offering of connectivity options:

            It also has an integrated 56K modem (V.90) and an RJ-45 LAN network port (for a 10/100 Ethernet connection to networks and DSL/cable modems).

            Operating System
            Windows Vista Home Premium is the operating system for users with advanced computer needs, and it includes all of the Windows Media Center capabilities for turning your PC into an all-in-one home entertainment center for watching DVD movies and accessing your digital audio library. You can also use Windows Media Center to record and watch your favorite TV shows (even HDTV) and to access new kinds of online entertainment content. Computers that include Windows Vista Home Premium and an auxiliary Windows SideShow display will also allow you to access key data even when your computer is off. It is also easier than ever to share files between other PCs in your household and to manage your laptop computer settings to more securely connect via Wi-Fi.

            Every edition of Windows Vista provides the essential tools and technologies to help protect you whether you are browsing the Internet, connecting to a wireless network, or just reading e-mail. All editions of Windows Vista include new tools that can warn you of impending hardware failures long before you have lost any important personal data. And, all Windows Vista editions include parental control features that allow you to manage and monitor your family's use of games, the Internet, instant messaging, and other activities.

            5 out of 5 stars Perfect Fit!.......2007-10-14

            This bag is perfect for what it is intended for: light duty travel for a compact/mid-size D-SLR with standard zoom lenses. I have a Rebel XTi and the Sigma 18-200mm DC OS zoom. It is an excellent fit even with the lens hood on (reversed of course).

            Others that have reviewed have complained that the bag is not big enough. Well, get a bigger bag! If you need more room to carry bigger or more lenses, then there are many other bags that will suit your needs. It's like buying a pair of gloves and complaining that they're not big enough for your hands - buy a larger pair!

            The build quality is top notch, as well as the aesthetics. I really like how the all-weather cover is built in and attached to the bag so you don't loose it and that way it's ALWAYS with you when you need it. One cool feature that I love are the four memory card slots. CF cards fit securely in them.

            Again, this bag is perfect for my camera and accessories for light travel. Whenever I need to go on long hauls/expeditions and I need more room for all of my equipment, then I use my backpack.

            3 out of 5 stars Well, it's like this!.......2007-09-13

            How do I say this without being to harsh? This Lowe Pro is great for packing a lunch. You'll be alright if all you put in this case is an SLR or a Coolpix size camera. Or 3 lenses. That's what I use it for. 2 lenses and a Vivitar flash for my FEs. Someone else mentioned ATAN bags. It broke my heart when they went out of businees. If you're serious and have a lot of equipment, look no further than a Billingham camera bag. Pricey, but sensational. And let's face it, you want the best for your equipment. So leave this bag for the lunch bunch and head for higher ground.

            Sa

            4 out of 5 stars Best for a small DSLR and 1 or 2 lenses.......2007-07-12

            This bag is pretty tight; I don't like extra space that I'm not using, so for me the size is good. I have a D40 with the 18-55 kit lens and the 55-200VR lens. With the kit lens attached, everything fits in the bag comfortably. With the telephoto lens attached, it just barely squeezes in there, but there's room on the sides for the kit lens and probably another small lens, like a 50mm. I don't think the bag would fit a bigger SLR or speedlights. ** IMPORTANT ** measure your camera with lens attached, in all dimensions, and compare to the specified dimensions of the bag before you buy the bag! I almost got the smaller 140 size, but after measuring my equipment with a ruler I knew it would've had to go back.

            The front pocket is good for filters and some paper for notes, car keys, etc. The neck strap easily tucks into the sides of the main compartment. The bag exudes a sturdy, high-quality feel, like my other Lowepro bag. It opens out away from my body, a requisite for me, and it sits perfectly across my front so I can move my arms freely and reach in for the camera quickly. I can leave the main door unzipped and the camera is never in danger of falling out. My only wish is that the shoulder strap adjusted to a shorter length. I like to walk with the camera's neck strap around my neck and the camera in the bag, and this bag sits too low for that. Other than that, no complaints: it's compact, tough, and good for excursions with the minimum of equipment.

            3 out of 5 stars A nice bag with some caveats.......2007-05-31

            The Lowepro Rezo 160 AW bag appears to be very well constructed (I still haven't taken it for a road test) and has some very nice add-ons (e.g., the weather-resistant cover). The rear-opening is also very useful when you need to take your photo gear out in a hurry while carrying the bag in your shoulder. However, it does not provide all the space it's supposed to have. I have a Canon Digital Rebel XTi with a 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens, and I had to store the camera and the lens separately. The only space left is for the external flash or a small lens, and after that all the items will be tightly packed. I don't have plans to buy another lens for the time being so I will keep the bag. But as soon as I get another lens I will definitely need a bigger bag.

            5 out of 5 stars Perfect for a light duty day........2007-04-03

            My priority was a small padded bag that'll carry my Canon 30D, EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, a EF-S 60mm f/2.8 USM Macro, and be slim enough to fit into a standard sized backpack.

            This bag will hold 3 lenses. The most effective way to arrange the camera and lenses to fit is to open the lid, which conveniently opens away from you, and place the 60mm to the left. Then I can slide a short lense on the right side. Finally with the 17-85 on the body, slide the body in upside down with the flash away from you.

            The short lense that goes on the right has to be shorter than the distance between the hand grip and the tip of the 17-85 lense because the bag is just long enough from top to bottom that my 30D with the 17-85, a UV filter, and lense cap will fit snuggly.

            Otherwise, you can use the right side as extra storage ofcourse if all you need is 2 lenses for the day.

            Also, there's quite a bit of storage space to put extra media, usb cable, keys, small wallet, and an energy bar or two with the combination of the left side and front compartments.

            There's two inch and a half belt hoops spaced about two and a half inches apart on the back of the bag. There's also Lowepro's SlipLock Pouch attachment on the right side ready to expand for extra storage capacity. Definitely a plus if you need extra storage and you don't want to have to buy a whole new bag later or if you'd like the option to go slim again by detaching the extra pouches.

            Also, it comes with a shoulder strap with hooks for attachments on either sides with complete rotational hooks that help with less tangling unlike my 30D Canon neck strap.

            The all weather cover is a nice touch if you're hit with a surprise shower or something. It pulls out the bottom of the front pouch area and is teathered to the bag but you can stretch the elastic edges over the bag so that it covers most of the exposed surface area and just the back, belt loop side, is exposed. It's not gonna survive in a monsoon but it's definitely a good design and will help in light showers.

            The handle feels almost like neoprene and is very comfortable.

            Overall, the protective padding is fine for everyday transport and handling but it's not gonna dampen a drop onto concrete from table height. There's no small bag that can do that.

            I took a gamble at buying such a small bag but in the end, I found that both my everyday lenses and even a small spare lense will fit snug as a bug in the Lowepro Rezo 160. And I can fit the whole bag into both my regular sized backpacks with ease.
