Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- 9600 x 2400 dpi maximum color resolution with a dedicated gray ink tank produces photo lab-quality gradients and neutral tones that a 4-ink system cannot match at this price.
- Individual ink tank system with separate XL options means you replace only the color that runs out, reducing waste and per-print ink cost over time.
- Built-in auto duplex printing handles two-sided documents without manual page-flipping, a capability absent from many photo-focused printers at this tier.
- CD/DVD/Blu-ray disc printing is included with the tray stored under the paper tray — a niche but genuinely useful feature for photographers archiving or distributing work on disc.
- AirPrint support enables driverless printing from iPhone, iPad, and Mac over Wi-Fi — no software installation required for Apple users.
👎 Cons
- OS compatibility tops out at Mac OS X 10.9 and Windows 8 per the listed specs — users running current macOS or Windows 10/11 versions should verify driver availability from Canon before purchasing this model.
- At 14.4 pounds and 17.8 x 14.5 inches footprint, this printer requires significant permanent desk space — it is not a printer you will move or put away regularly.
- Print speed of approximately 10 ipm in color for document output is modest by current inkjet standards — it will feel slow for high-volume mixed document and photo workflows.
- Ink costs for the CLI-251 series can accumulate quickly in photo-heavy use even with XL cartridges — cost-per-print is higher than laser alternatives for pure text document workflows.
