Can anyone tell me how the HP CP1160 compares to the HP 5550 and/or the Canon S750?

Cost per page (ink), print quality, and speed are my top three considerations. Thanks in advance.
 
Check out the new Canon I550 and I850. They just came in to the online stores. I got the I850 yesterday. Supports USB 2.0 and has more memory then the S750. Uses the same four print cartridges. I love Canon and NO, I do not work or am associated with their company.
 
I used to have an old Canon BJ-10e. I wasn't too impressed with the gravity fed paper tray. It did jam up quite a bit, and sometimes took in two or three sheets at once.

Is the i850 gravity fed? Have you noticed similar problems?
 
I'm not sure what you mean. It has a built-in sheet feeder for 150 24lb pages, according to my manual. So far it hasn't jammed once. It feeds properly. But I've only had it for one day.
