I bought a new MX330 to use primarily as a scanner, and to print the occasional photo. I use a cheap Laser printer to print out everything else. You can buy a Brother or HP laser printer for the cost of a few sets of ink cartridge refills, so the price per page drops to about 2 cents. If I want to copy something, I scan it to a PDF, and then print it out on the laser.
How do you expect Canon (or anyone else) to sell an all-in-one for a hundred dollars and stay in business? King Gillette made his fortune by giving away the razor and selling the blades. Case closed.

If you do your homework before buying the printer you will know that you can get a larger ink cartridge with 66% more ink for about 25% more in cost. Check it out. The number is PG-210XL.

As the other reviews mentioned, these cartridges last about 140 to 150 pages, even in economy mode. That works out to about 10 cents+ a page. I got the MP240 as part of a PC bundle at BestBuy, but I am upgrading to a Laser printer asap.

I feel that the cartridge went dry much too quickly, especially when you consider how much these things cost. But that is the deal, buy the printer for a reasonable price and get shafted on the cartridges. I guess this is why so many people simply buy cartridge ink refill kits and just refill the old cartridge. I think Canon would be wiser to make their own product more reasonably priced. I am sure they do market research and figure at what point they lose market share on refill kits. Having said all this, I am happy with the printer itself.
I am updating this review. I have now gone through one more of these cartridges. Someone said you are supposed to get about 220 pages out of it. I only print for school and have in my notebook all the pages I have ever printed out for the last cartridge save, at most, 5 pages. They don’t come anywhere near this number. I would say it is about 120-150 pages tops. Above I said I was happy with the printer. However, I am no longer happy with a company that thinks taking advantage of its customers is acceptable and therefore I am no longer happy with the printer. I would now tell you to not buy this printer and only buy refill kits if you already have one. I just bought one from Fry’s and it is working fine. Canon can take a flying leap.
