Canon MP480 All-in-One Photo Printer

Love this printer. Had one for a long time and then it broke. So it was time for a new one. Everything a-ok!

Pros: This printer is very good and easy to use. Cons: The MP480 printer is a Slot machine because the refilled ink cartridge could not be used. This printer would NOT scan or do anything else if the ink cartridge is empty. And it works only with BRAND NEW ink cartridge.

Have used this printer now for two years and it is still functioning well. Other than the usual complaints of high-cost ink and no faxing abilities, my only complaint (recently discovered) is that all functions shut down when the ink on this printer runs dry. For example, I need to scan a document into my computer. I ran out of ink yesterday and received an error from the printer. Even after shutting it off, the error is still there and I cannot override it to scan, despite the fact this doesnt require any ink. VERY INCONVENIENT, poor programming. Still, for the initial cost of this printer its a good deal, especially if you dont print all the time and are conservative with ink.

Wonderful printer. Still going strong after 5-6 years. Easy to use. Highly recommended.

I bought this printer/copier/scanner a little over a year ago. Right away we had big problems with color. Our old printer had no problem turning what you saw on the screen into what was printed. This one cannot do that. No matter how we adjusted our print settings it would not give us correct coloration. Some colors looked nothing like their original. The next problem was the scanner. After about 6 months, it stopped working. Again we tried fixing the problem to no avail. It does an okay job of coping black and white. Thats it. This is the first Canon printer we have owned and it will be the last. Oh yeah, the front panel also fell off, too.

I ordered this printer, I can only see disadvantage in it: 1.takes long to start printing, guess it is wrming up 2. inks run down very quickly 3. scanner does a nonsense with the OCR documents 4.the photo quality; is not all that I expected 5. Too costly for the quality of prints 6. HP better any day.

Great product

I purchased this to replace a Lexmark all-in-one and I couldnt be happier. The quality of photos and everyday printing is very sharp. The only drawback is a warm up period when first turned on, but after that all flows well.

good as all in one but i was fooled as i thought all in one included a fax which this does not. the cartridges are not cheap but for the money a good printer

this printer does many different things. photo prints come out great. the copy is good. i have printed cards. i have been having so much fun with my printer. it is easy to install. does not use a lot of toner. i have had many printers in the past years, this is the best.
