IP4500 vs IP4300

I read the specs and so far do not see any difference as far as
features. Maybe there are some internal differences that warrant a
different model number.

some differences I've found between the iP4500 and the iP4300:
- iP4500 has CD/DVD printing disabled in N. America, whereas all
iP4300's can print on CD/DVDs
- higher number of nozzles, 4608 vs. 3584 nozzles on the iP4300
- faster borderless 4x6 print speed, 21 secs. vs. 36 secs on the
iP4300

Anyone know why Canon has apparently disabled CD/DVD printing once
more?

The 4500 has three different nozzle drop sizes.
1,2 and 5.
It is basically the MP810 print engine.

Canon has never sold a printer in the USA with disc printing enabled.

legal matters - I guess it's one of those absurd legal matters (patent?)
and licensing which do protect - and throw back - more and more,
compared to other countries.

Here in Europe we got CD printing (although I never used it). Here we
have to pay extra fees e.g. for printing itself, for tuners within
mobile phones or mp3 players, for scanners, cd/dvd burners etc.
