My Brother all-in-one printer/fax/copier/scanner died. I am considering the Canon MX892 all-in-one. Anyone using it? What are you thoughts? Thanks.
I like that fact that it has separate color ink tanks. Which ink tanks does it use the least? I am wondering what the difference is between the 2 black inks.

One is pigment-based (the PGI-225 cartridge) and the other is dye-based (the CLI-226 cartridge).
According to an owner of the MX8120 who posted here: http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3053186#forum-post-39180810 , the difference is that "PGI...is used when printing documents etc. CLI black is for photos just like other CLI colours."

I normally love Canon because of the separate ink tanks. I just bought this one as a replacement for my Canon MX700. I loved that old printer - it did everything.
This one is awful - unless I just happen to have a defective model. When copying and scanning, the colors are not the same as the original. At first I thought it was the ink tanks, so scanned to the computer to be sure - and the scan turned out black and white (and I know I pressed the color button).
I will be returning this one.

This printer just died on me - had in less than two years - horrible - started getting error messages,
I fixed and restarted many times, just came home to print and the entire printer turned off, cannot get it back on at all!
Horrible!
