Got this after my ageing HP died on me and I couldn't be happier, this thing is a beast!
Build Quality - 4*, with a piano black finish (shows up finger prints though, so be prepared to wipe it)
Print Quality - 5*, the colours are vibrant and the detail is above and beyond my old model.
Scanner - 4*, great quality scans but does make the images lighter than in real life, so be prepared to dim them slightly if you want them exactly right.
WiFi - 5* Setup easily over WiFi to all my machines (Windows 7 x64, Windows Vista x64 and Windows XP) flawlessly, just punch in your WPA/WEP key and the software sorts the rest
I'm not really bothered about speed of prints so I'll leave that for someone else to comment on.
I've used the MP560 before and If you're stuck between the two I'd say get this one, the extra features, design and print quality are all improved over the previous model.

This is a large, smart printer; with all the trays out you need a space about 48 by 66cm.
My wireless network uses MAC address filtering and I struggled to find the printer MAC address, it's not printed anywhere, I actually found it hidden in one of the menus," LAN setup". I then found I needed to download the latest drivers from the Canon site to get it working with windows 7.
Once set up the printer is very easy to use, I found the photocopier and scanner functions intuitive. The ability to scan a document as a PDF to a USB memory stick is particularly useful. You can scan in mono or colour. There is a cassette at the front for paper and a second tray at the rear so, for example, you can load plain paper and photo paper and select between the two.
You can print photos directly from memory cards, including compactflash, and a memory stick. The photos are shown on the LCD and there is a plethora of print options e.g. ID cards, calendars, contact strips, stickers, printing the image onto printable CDs etc. There is even an option to print the photos onto a simulated 35mm film-strip.
I plugged a Belkin Bluetooth dongle into the USB port at the front and found I was able to make a connection and print the photos on my phone through Bluetooth.
The print quality is up to the high standard you expect from Canon, a little noisy feeding the paper but quiet, fast printing. The print cartridges seem to be lasting well too.
Recommended.

Why could my previous printers not have been this easy to set up and use? Idiot-proof step by step installation booklet and simple set up procedures meant I had it up and running in no time at all. I have struggled in the past with using printers wirelessly on my Apple Airport Extreme network (Samsung CLP-315 is very temperamental). The Canon was very easy to connect; I can now print and scan wirelessly from my iMac (OSX 10.6) and my Windows Vista laptop. The print quality and speed are excellent, and the enclosed software is easy to use. A fantastic machine!
