Canon Pixma MX700 fax and color problems

Jan 29, 2008

- Hi again,

The "telephone priority" mode has been in use, as stated in my original post. I tried many combinations of settings and nothing worked.

After talking to Canon tech support many times, they shipped me a new machine. This solved 2 problems. 1) The fax appears to work properly now and hasn't interrupted my voice calls, and 2) my photos are not over saturated (with magenta?), which means my print head was bad.

This replacement is terrific! The prints are fabulous, regardless of the original. The ADF works superbly without jamming or grabbing more than 1 sheet at a time. The software provided is easy to use and effective, with the possible exception of Canon EasyPhoto EX. It doesn't allow manually enhancing the photo before printing. Get a copy of Canon PhotoRecord. It does it all beautifully!

It also helps to have the latest updates on the software. Here's the link: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=123&modelid=15651#DownloadDetailAct

Now, I couldn't be happier with my purchase! The solution is to have Canon send you a properly working MX700!!
