Summary: A rapid machine, whether from off, on, standby or when already printing.
Conclusion: Just about a three star rating for this backup model whose main attraction is its purchase price. It will serve to take up the slack from time to time but for better quality (and a slightly higher price), go for the MG5150.
Pro : Reduced energy consumption, particularly in standby (0.6 W) ; Quiet ; Budget ; Compact
Cons : Cost per page: 14.3 pence with high capacity cartridges ; Print quality: saturated colours, size of droplets too visible ; No networking, no wi-fi ; No double-sided, no card reader

Conclusion: The Canon PIXMA MP280 retains much of the appearance and many of the features of its predecessor, yet while it has increased print speeds overall, it has abandoned any PictBridge capability and shown a disappointing decline in photo quality.
