It has the ability to print directly onto CDs, print directly from a camera or camera phone and has Duplex Mode (Both sides of the paper)
It also uses smart individual ink tanks with cool looking lights to sense the ink level.
And the print quality is superb.
Unfortunately, the printer broke down barely even a month after I bought it directly from Canon’s concept store. See? Even the plastic protective layer isn’t peeled off yet! Is this what Canon is trying to do to defend its market against HP and Epson?
It showed the same symptoms as my old IP4000 which was out of warranty which was why I decided to upgrade to IP4500. I loved the quality and features of IP4000 very much and that was why I didn’t changed to any other brand or type of printer. But why does the build quality of Canon’s printer so bad now? I needed the printer urgently for printing my assignments which is going to be due soon but it seems like I’m going to have to go through a few more weeks of waiting. *Sigh*
First thing to do tomorrow: Call Canon’s service technician. Good thing they have an on-site warranty system so I don’t have to carry the printer all the way to their service center anymore.

Even for printers, I could have gotten myself any cheap RM200 Canon or Epson printer. Instead, I got myself an RM600 Pixma IP4500. [...]
