Review: Canon Pixma MP480 multifunction device

 

Canon's Pixma MP480 doesn't have all of the fancy features found on some of the MFPs we've tested recently, like integrated fax capabilities, an automatic document feeder, or wireless connectivity. But the MP480 proved to be a very capable device in...

Easy to set up and install, the light gray and black MP480 is both compact and attractive. It connects to your Mac via USB 2.0 and uses two ink cartridges, one black and one tri-color (cyan, magenta, and yellow)

Canon PIXMA MP480

 

Decent quality for the price.

Good quality printing, consistent mono printing speeds

Printing is generally slow, scanning quality could be better, feels flimsy

Though the MP480 suffers from the major flaws found in other budget multifunctions, it largely makes up for these problems through decent quality printing.

Consumer review (tigerdirect.com)

Worth the money

 

If you use your printer as much as I do, the large ink cartridges are the only way to go. I have had some bad experiences with refilled cartridges, and I now buy only Canon ink.

Should be the only one made

 

Highly recommended for people who use their printers a lot. It should be the only one produced; I see no need for the small one. I no longer try to use refilled ink cartridges as they often disappoint.

Color Ink Tank

 

When I bought the printer it came with one black and one color ink cartridge. They were small also known as regular. I believe I have over the years bought fifty or more ink cartridges. Now the XL tank is available I use them.
