The S520 uses four individual ink tanks for cost savings, and with both USB and parallel ports, it's a suitable match to your Mac or PC.Canon's trademarked MicroFine Droplet technology ably provides crisp clean black text in 600 x 600 dpi and color prints at 2,400 x 1,200 dpi, on a wide variety of media. Rated speeds are up to 14 pages per minute for black and 9 ppm for color. Canon claims you can even get 4-by-6-inch borderless prints in less than a minute.
