Would someone confirm whether or not the Canon Pixma ip3000 is an
advanced version of the Canon ip865, which is the European version of
the ip860.

If that is the case, any further developments re- the ip3000 would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Emrys Davies.

Close. The iP4000 is the direct replacement model for the i860, while
the iP3000 is the replacement for the i560.

Do you mean features? If so, the 3000 adds an automatic duplex unit and
a second paper tray on the bottom like the HP models. Other than that,
they're pretty similar.

Thanks everyone. Very helpful. If anyone is still looking in can you
tell me what the Canon Pixma iP5000 replaced and that completes my
initial research. I will then view these at PC World as my daughter
intends to purchase a printer soon and would like some help.

The iP4000 replaced the i860, which replaced the i850. The iP5000 didn't
replace any printer. It is really a slightly more advanced iP4000. It
has a different printhead, capable of printing with smaller ink dots
(1 pl vs 2 pl at high resolutions). This gives it superior graphics/
photo handling. Its highest resolution is 9600 dpi vs 4800 for the
iP4000. This difference is especially noticeable in graphics work.

That was very helpful, to say the least, and I really apprecate your
very impressive summary which has helped me understand the differences
in these particular printers.

Are you as conversant with the Canon Pixma iP6000 as it also appears to
be well thought of, but its writeup does not say what it replaced and
the technical differences.

Thanks a lot.

Emrys Davies.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with this model except to say that it has Camera
memory card slots and a viewer for viewing and editing photos, I
believe. I prefer to view and edit my photos on my computer screen
rather than a tiny 2 or 3 inch LCD screen. Few people have their
printers in front of them so viewing these pictures can be rather
awkward to say the least.
