Description: Advanced printer technology at an exceptional value.
The Canon i450 Bubble Jet Printer delivers high-quality photos, detailed printing from the web, crisp text and exclusive Canon features all at a great value. It achieves print speeds of up to 18 ppm in black and up to 12 ppm in colour along with resolution of up to 4800 x 1200 dpi.* Canon Advanced MicroFine Droplet Technology™ uses a revolutionary nozzle system that ejects consistent prescribed-volume ink droplets in microscopic sizes for remarkable print clarity. The i450 printer's newly designed print head produces 5-picolitre and ultra-fine 2-picolitre droplets, helping you to produce a smoother, more photo-realistic image. Your photos, graphics, web pages and reports will look clean and professional.

Borderless printing for professional looking photos. Direct.
The i450 printer brings you a new level of photo printing for the home: edge-to-edge true borderless printing, with the look and feel of a traditional photograph. Now you can produce 4" x 6", 5" x 7" or 8.5" x 11" borderless prints** with stunning quality, perfect for framing or the scrapbook. Save yourself a trip to the local photo lab and produce you own great looking 4" x 6" prints in approximately 90 seconds. With Bubble Jet Direct printing*** you can print with or without a computer. Just connect a compatible Canon digital camera or digital camcorder to your i450 printer and PRINT!

Exclusive software makes photo and web printing easier than ever.
The i450 printer supports the worldwide standard Exif 2.2 (Exchangeable Image Format File), so when an Exif-compliant camera captures a photo, important camera settings and shooting conditions are saved in the JPEG image file.

* Ink droplets can be placed with a minimum pitch of 1/4800 inch.
** Mac OS X borderless printing requires ver. 10.2 or later.

I read somewhere that the ix50 printers are all based on s200 drivers
or some such. If anyone can help me connect this printer I would appreciate it. Please email me or drop a note.

Under windows I found this printer useful and problem-free for a year.

This printer is an excellent printer, however, there are no drivers for it on Linux, official or otherwise. If you search hard enough, you will find that the Canon Pixus 550i drivers found on a Japanese site work with the i450. There are also reports that the Canon BJC 7004 Linux driver works fine as well.
