I've been researching the Canon S900/9000 series of photo printers. I've seen about a 20% complaint rate in numerous forums on issues such as fading, print head problems, etc. Anyone here on DPC have any experience with either of these two these two printers? I would like to ask that this not degenerate into a Epson vs. HP vs. Canon vs. (insert favorite printer here) brouhaha. I'd simply like to know if people have had problems with the S900 or S9000. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Achiral: Just for fun, have you tried the Win XP Photo printing wizard? As long as I had my print driver set up for photo quality (In fact, I have more than one printer set up on my machine, all pointing at the same device, but with different print profiles, so I just select the one I have set up for Photo Quality), the photo printing wizard did all the scaling/interpolation and all that for quick prints at high quality.

I am trying to find some other piece of freeware/shareware that does a good job of photo layout, however, and I am accepting all advice.

BTW, I do NOT have the 9000. I have an old HP 932C which does fine so far, but with more and more good shots coming out of the D100, I am considering going with a good photo-centric printer like the 9000.

Which leads me down this path: It sucks that you guys are having trouble with this printer. Steve's Digicams absolutely loves it, and I'm very inclined to trust that site's reviews.

I'll be watching this thread to find out what you all have to say.

Best,

Mark

I just got an s900 and it seems to have a great print quality! I love it.. and I too have been using the win xp print wizard... the only trouble I have had is with borderless prints. I can't seem to get the entire crop to print to the borderless print... something always gets cropped out... I am sure it's something I am doing and I will figure it out... anyone else have that trouble and have an answer?
