Mine's the Stylus 500.. They now make higher versions than that. I think you
want to stay away from the cheaper one.. The newer version of mine was called
the 600 last time I looked.

Dunno.. Mine has a "cleaning" button on it.. that is useful sometimes.. One
problem I have is that sometimes the ink cartiges refuse to drip properly.. You
