What the Manufacturer, Canon says:
HIGH PERFORMANCE PRINTING WITH FLEXIBLE PAPER HANDLING.

Remarkable speed and direct photo printing.
The Canon Pixma iP3000 Bubble Jet Printer delivers speed, quality and convenience in a stylish package. How fast is it? It produces up to 22 ppm in black and up to 15 ppm in colour and a beautiful 4"x 6" borderless print takes only 36 seconds.* Plus, you have the convenience of direct photo printing: simply connect any PictBridge-compatible digital camera or DV camcorder, and print! This PC-free process eliminates the need to be tied to your computer saving you time.

But the Pixma iP3000 Bubble Jet Printer isn't just fast. It also achieves impressive detail and clarity, as a result of Canon Full-photolithography Inkjet Nozzle Engineering (FINE). This technology features an upgraded 1,600-nozzle print head that ejects precise, consistent droplets as small as 2 picoliters, for amazing photo-realism. This high-efficiency printer also uses a specially formulated black ink for laser-like text on reports and letters, along with high-intensity colour inks for brilliant photos and graphics. Your borderless photos, from 4"x 6" up to 8.5"x 11", will have the look and feel of traditional photographs.

Canon Think Tank System.
To help reduce printing costs**, this efficient system has four individual ink tanks that let you replace only the colour that runs out, rather than an entire cartridge containing unused ink. Plus, a unique low-ink sensor alerts you when ink levels are low, so you are prepared to just drop in a new tank when needed.

* PPM print speeds are based on the highest speed printer driver mode. Photo print speed based on maximum print speed using Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy. Print speed will vary based on system configuration, software, document complexity, print mode and page coverage.
**Will vary based on composition of images/documents printed.
