CNET reviews the Canon PIXMA MP960, they rated the printer 7.7/10 and write:
“We were pleased to see some significant speed improvements in the Pixma MP960 over the Pixma MP950, though it still lagged behind some of the older Pixma models in scan speeds. It printed text files at a zippy 9.42 pages per minute, a slight improvement over the MP950’s 8.86ppm. It flew through 4×6 photos at a rate of 1.98ppm, more than twice the speed of the MP950…The good: Fast prints; high-quality text, graphics, and photo prints; built-in duplexer; loads of image-enhancement options; capable of batch negative/slide scans. The bad: Scan quality needs to be improved; PictBridge port can’t double as USB port; no built-in networking; expensive.”
