Throw in a scroll-wheel on an inkjet Photo MFD and you have a Canon PIXMA MP520.
Good print quality, memory card slots, decent looks
Below average speeds, no fax
Photo MFDs are quite common today and having one saves you a lot of hassle. It may just save you that trip in the rains to get yourself a quick copy or a photo print. Canon has always produced MFDs that can truly be classified as Photo MFDs, the PIXMA series. It has been a leader as far as the photo print quality is concerned. We have reviewed the Canon PIXMA MP520 this time. Let's see how it measures up to its illustrious brethren.

How many Techtree members/readers buy or think of buying Rs. 12.5k printer?- guys get REAL- Most Indian homes/home office printer buys are for entry level printers- costing 2- to 3k and lasers costing 5-6k. U should be reviewing these reviews of Pixma 1880 etc are required more than these 12.5k printer reviews. Even more the Indian readers are interested in Printing costs and especially printer cartridge costs & availability of after market ink cartridges- because all the standard printer mfrs cheat us with replacement ctgs.

@Taipan, IMHO there is nothing wrong in Reviewing a mid end printer like the one above. Agreed that ours is a price sensitive market, but we are also one of the largest markets for high end goods. And this is hardly "high end". While I do agree with you that along with the mid end segment, the much popular, entry level segment should be given worthy attention as well.
