I see that Canon is offering a $30 rebate on the i960 Photo printer, I am
tempted to go out and buy one. However I have a question: Canon does not
offer a 8x10 photo paper (though it can be gotten from a 3rd party). Does
that mean the this printer will not print borderless 8x10's?
Thanks,
Doug.

I just ordered mine for 177 shipping included. no rebate of course.
Same price I guess without fooling with rebates. Search on
pricewatch.com and you will find it if you are interested.

Oh, and one other thing for cost efficiency. alotofthings.com and
inkjetgoodies.com

for refill ink and empty refill cartridges. I will sell my original
canon inks which pays for the blank cartridges. So I am only out the
bulk ink which is not much considering the cost of canon inks.

I think you may still be able to get the rebate, it is from Canon. Try
their web site, there is a pdf for a rebate form there.

As a point of reference, the price of this machine did not discount until
May 1 I have owned mine sine mid Nov, 2003.

And very pleased with the printing

Thats fine as I just ordered my printer yesterday which was the 4th. I
had no clue of the rebate either. Good timing I suppose.

Yup, I found out about the rebate while looking at specs, that was the
final straw. Set it up this morning, I am really surprised how fast it is!!

Wonderful... I hope to get mine here early next week. Let me know what
you think of the text printing. I have an I850 now that does a great
job but from all that I read, the text is not very good with the
950/960.

Considering the black is a bci-6 tank, Im wondering if it always
prints a mixed black. I do not print text much but I do need to make
a photo copy or write a letter once in a while.

I would be interested in your findings with the text and what paper
you tested on as well.
