Mike,I have a Canon S800 and am very happy with it. It will print a 8X10 in about 1 minute. I am happy with the colors it produces and especially like the 6 different ink cartridges, which reduces ink expense and waste. A friend of mine is constantly impressed with it's ability to produce good blues tones for skies.
I'll second that. I'm very happy with my S800. I did, however, invest in a
ColorVision Monitor Spyder for calibrating the monitor to the printer, which
I'd also recommend.

What has been your experience with color fading? I'm considering a Canon as a replacement for the HP my wife uses (due to all the raves on Canon's quality and speed) but the first negative I've seen on these printers would be a significant one (just for me <g>, not my wife).
See http://drycreekphoto.com/PrintTest/results.htm if you missed my original query on the subject.
Thanks,
