Canon MP480 All-in-One Photo Printer

Does what it is advertised to do.

I purchased this printer at a different retailer. I have had this printer for over a month and so far I have no problems with it. I really like this printer. It prints quickly and I dont have to feed one paper at a time. The only thing I can say that I dont like about it is that it uses ink up pretty quickly.

Printer works great on my iMac/Macbook. Scanning software is pretty clunky, though. Sometimes it has a problem where the paper gets jammed due to the way the paper sits in the up right tray. If you rotate the paper 180 degrees so that the leading edges curve is point down it fixes the problem. I went through about 50 jammed pages before I figured that one out :/

BOUGHT THE CANON MP480 ALL-IN ONE PRINTER. GREAT QUALITY FROM CANON. I USE IT FOR COPYING AND PHOTO PRINTS. NO COMPLAINTS. THANKS. WOULD RECOMMEND

initially, I though the product came without a power cord and also the USB cord, I was wrong and found both of them tucked inside with the printer ink. The USB cord was a y cord and I plugged them both in. Set up was easy and automatic. I have an HP 8.1 computer and there was no problem in set up which was for Vista. If you do not have a internal rom drive, an external drive is needed to use the set up disk. Print went well immediately. Time will tell how long the printer will work and how well. My old cannon printer lasted many years and I am hoping this one will too. Just like my old printer this one makes noises too, but I do not care it does not bother me, but it might be annoying to some. The instruction manual was clear and detailed. I read some reviewers got duds, and that is terrible, and might be due to a lack of quality control.

I have had this printer for several years. I am amazed how long it lasts without giving problems. Just recently, the only difficulty is that is not compatible with Windows 10. So, in other words, my all-in-one Canon worked fine until... the arrival of Windows 10. Anyway, it seems that there is a solution and I am going to find out tomorrow from Canons technical support. If I get a solution I will edit my post to share the solution. I just wanted to finally write a well deserved good review for this good product.

The printer itself is decent. Its relatively attractive and easy to use. The quality of copies and photos is fine. Its noisier and slower than Id prefer, but I can live with that. What I cant live with is a printer that goes through ink so fast that I surpassed the cost of the printer after the third ink refill, and I buy the XL size refills! I find myself being extremely judicious about printing anything to try and conserve the short life of these cartridges. Dont buy it. No printer is worth this much inconvenience or money.

Pros: Pretty good printer for the price. I needed an inexpensive printer with a small footprint to take along on RV trips and this one fits the bill. Price for ink is OK. Excellent copy funtion and very good scanning. Photo printing is OK but not as good as my MP610 with individual ink tanks and 1 picoliter print head. Cons: Looks like a roaster oven. No individual ink tanks for color. Very noisy. Construction a bit flimsy but fit and finish is good, like all Canon products.

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.

Ive been wanting to purchase this unit... have it on my Wish List. Been tracking the Amazon price(s) waiting till the cost falls below mfg suggested ($99.99). Checked today... Price $126.95! Checked the Canon website, price $99.99 Sorry Amazon... ya lost my biz on this one.
