Canon MP480 All-in-One Photo Printer

Wow, just what the doctor ordered! She even looks good! Like the closed dust protection features, ease of use, and quality of prints considering the price. There is no better deal on the net! Shes my first printer so I did my home work on this one. Very happy with Amazon and loved the FREE shipping! I highly recommend this if your looking desktop printer in this price range. She is a little loud, so use it before you put the kiddies to sleep. Ok just kidding, shes not that loud.... Thanks Amazon Ill be back

This printer was easy to install and works great. It has a very nice set of options and it is extremely easy to use. The printer was delivered in the time frame provided. Overall, I am very satisfied with my new printer. The only minor drawback is the size...a little bit bigger than I expected.

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.

Initially the printer wouldnt work at all. I did not have the CD but I presevered. Then out of the blue it started to work properly after about 3 weeks. I cannot say what I did precisely but to this day, it works beautifully. No complaints.

Have had this printer for about a year. Worked well enough until we upgraded Mac operating system to Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.2 - then things started to go wrong. Printer required new driver download and still wont print accurately. Print preview shows documents in correct format, but printer spins an extra blank page and wont print text with correct spacing from letterhead. Also encounter other problems with Mac/Pixma interface, but wont detail them all. Dont know if problems are caused by Snow Leopard or Canon. Apparently they are not made for each other. Gobbles ink, but it printed nicely until the Canon/Mac interface failed.

This used printer came in good condition which was a wonder considering the box looked like it had been handled by a gorilla. The printer is working OK..... but, the problem is it came without the user guide and from China. The shipper knew it was going to America and it would have been nice if they had put it in to the English language. We have not tried real hard to put it in to English and Im sure that we will be able to do that. Just keep in mind that this can happen when your product is coming from a country other than America. Other than that one little problem, we are happy with our purchase. Thxs.

Overall, this is an incredible piece of technology for the price. Its an excellent scanner, and a *generally* very high quality printer and copier. The interface is adequate, if not incredibly convenient, and the ability to read directly from a variety of cards is very useful. There is only one weakness of this printer, and that is the fact that photographs can tend to streak towards the end of the print. This is pretty common with ink jet printers, and unfortunately this one is no different. Its only apparent in photographs with large areas of the same tone, and it doesnt always happen--its a function of random partial clogging of the jets--but you should be aware that youre not going to get the kind of quality out of this that youll get from having photos printed professionally. (In fact, its usually cheaper to do so.) However, for the occasionally instant gratification photo printing, you cant beat this printer and the price.

I brought this printer from someone who owned it for a few months. This printer is durable. My printer survived being dropped a few times, moved to storage for a year, and then being used for a year after that. However, the computer connection piece broke forcing me to buy a new printer. I can still use the printer as a scanner and copy machine though...

I bought this printer to replace my MP360 which I had for ten years & loved it. To bad they dont make that one anymore or I would have gotten it again. Anyway, this printer does very well over all. The only drawback is it really goes through an ink cartridge rather quickly which disappoints me because of the cost of them. I do a lot of photography work & the quality of the photos is excellent, just those darn cartridges empty fast.

The scanner function will not work. Very poor documentation and support. Ive been using systems as a professional for over 20 years. Ive helped develop and document numbers of systems. The better-name brands will usually install or troubleshoot readily. I have a new HP Pavilion with Vista pre-installed (of course, Vista sucks big-time in its own right.) The scanner on this device refuses to work. Spent a day on it. Nothing yet. I got it because I wanted the scanner. So far, no joy.
