  Review summary: The MP500 is a great all-rounder. Itâ€(tm)s capable of excellent print quality at high speeds, plus CD printing, has an automatic duplex module and a tempting price.
  
  Verdict: Many will notice the $54 saving over the HP. Canonâ€™s high running costs ($1.49 per photo) are cheaper than HPâ€™s best quality ($1.84), but we recommend HP for photos as the prints donâ€™t fade. HP&acir
