A review 5 years down the line

My brother bought a Canon BJC-8200, five years ago, and after a while he outgrew it and passed it onto me. It's amazing that a printer that was created in 2000 can produce pictures (and regular documents) with such a high quality even by 2005...

In our current office environment, most users do not have desktop printers; that is by design. They are connected instead to series of networked black & white and color printers. But that poses its own set of problems since a fair majority of people ...

EL 60 small footprint yields Great labels!

 

I got the Dymo EL 60 because of the $99.00 special offer for Palm users and it is one of the best investments I have ever made. Very few devices will alert you to free updates when you use them but Dymo does. I use it very often to label everything...

Extremely fast. easy to use, inexpensive, software upgrades are free

None as far as I am concerned

Product Specifications

Imagine printing photos - right from your desktop - with photolab quality. The BJC-8200 Color Bubble Jet Photo Printer delivers spectacular results with ease and finesse. In fact, this incredible desktop printer is one of the most advanced in the world, featuring numerous technological breakthroughs that enable you to output photos that are simply amazing. The BJC-8200 printer features 1,536 nozzles per printhead, making ink application faster, more precise and detailed. This Microfine Droplet Technology actually applies ink drops just 4 picoliters in size. So whites are whiter, details and highlights are more brilliant, and complex, multilevel gradations are now a reality. The built-in Image Optimizer smoothes jagged edges, sharpens lines and borders and enhances overall clarity and quality. And Photo Optimizer automatically cleans up highlights, details, contrast and shadowing without altering your original photo. So photos become bolder and more distinct - just how you intended. The BJC-8200 printer was designed with many advanced features that make printing easier than ever. It features the Canon Think Tank System - an intelligent ink-management system that automatically eliminates ink waste and saves you money. It uses individual ink tanks for each color, so you replace only the color that runs out. And its unique optical low-ink sensor alerts you when ink is low, so you can pop in another tank just at the right time. You can also swap the ink tank with Canon's optional IS-52 Color Image Scanner Cartridge and instantly turn your printer into a 600 dpi sheetfed scanner.
