Canon BJC 3000 Inkjet Printer

Pros: Good Quality Printing
Cons: Shakes our Desk when printing

When we bought our new computer, we bought a printer to go with it. We chose a Canon 4300 and used it for about two years. One day it died! It flat out decided that it had printed enough essays, projects, letters and cards. We took it to the computer...

Pros: Excellent print quality in black and white as well as color
Cons: Rather noisy

As many of you know, I never purchase new cartridges, just a new printer. They are so inexpensive, that to pay over $30 for one cartridge is a waste of money. This Canon Color Bubble Jet Printer BJC-3000 was my latest purchase that I have been using for...

Pros: Easy to use, Ink Provided, A strong home printer
Cons: None

Cannon BJC-3000

I purchased this printer in April of 2000. I was in desperate need of a new printer. I was very surprised while shopping to find out how many choices there were out there for printers. I didn't want to spend a whole lot...

Pros: Low Price, good Quality
Cons: Inks are pricey

The 3000 is a new kid on the block from Canon, and so far I think it is going to bully all the other little boys around.

I thoroughly tested one of these printers Friday, the ‘release’ date. I was initially very happy!!! The price is...

Pros: Fairly quiet, easy to refill cartridges, good output on expensive coated paper. Fair grayscale handling.
Cons: Unimpressive output quality. Needs good quality paper to look only "fairly" good. Graphics/photos are way too grainy.

Updated Info
Here's some more info since I last updated this review..., at every power on or start of a print job, the Canon goes thru what seems like a printe head cleaning process...it seems to do it all over again when it powers down to...

Pros: Extensive printing options, high print quality, drop-modulation technology, separate ink tanks, bi-directional printing, scanner function, copes with various paper types/sizes and is cheap.
Cons: Wish there were more printers like this one

Canon is one of the market leaders in the lower end of the home/small office market, producing a range of peripherals that combine features and reliability with reasonable pricing.

The new model in the Canon bubble jet series is priced to...

Pros: Cheap, sturdy, good print quality,
Cons: Speed

I had a most unfortunate experience with my last printer! (See my review on the Epson 660-yikes) So, when I had a rather large printing job to undertake a few weeks ago, I went to Staples to buy some ink. However, I was sidetracked in the printer...

Pros: Superb photo quality pictures, seperate ink tanks for economical ink replacing.
Cons: Quite slow... but who cares.

A few weeks ago, my HP laser printer died. I was so peed off about it since I relied on my printer for printing manuscripts for the children's books I write. This printer was only a black/white printer but it gave excellent quality prints.

A...

Pros: Separate ink tanks, USB, fast, quiet, $20USD factory rebate
Cons: Long noisy warm-up sequence, so-so printing quality for photos

This is one good printer if intended mainly for document printings. Most of the time setting the printer in 'draft' mode will produce prints nicely. And for most printed using standard, the result is usually laser printer quality(again, only document...

Pros: Print quality, low-ink warning, easy set-up, great price
Cons: awkward size, slow printing, poor paper handling

Our Canon BJC 3000 printer has performed
excellent for printing photos, graphics and
documents. The price was my main factor
deciding to buy this model. I got it for $149 at a
local electronics store. After a $50 rebate from
...

Pros: individual ink tanks, great print quality, decent speed
Cons: conflict with mustek scanners, usb doesn't seem to work like it should

I have been the owner of the Canon BJC-3000 for about a week and a half now. It's been great in some respects and a huge headache in others.

First the good, really I should say GREAT, things about this computer...

...

Pros: Windows 2000 Compatibility; Easy Setup/Use; Price
Cons: Occasionally feeds too much paper; Would be nice if it was a bit smaller

After almost a year printer-less after the purchase of my computer, I finally decided to take the plunge, and purchase a new printer. After quite a bit of online research, and window shopping at almost a dozen different stores, I narrowed it down to the...

Pros: Cheap Cartridges
Cons: Expense of Operation, Zero Reliability, Very Unperfected Product

Clash of the $99 titans

First of all, if you paid more than $99 for any of these units, you officially overpaid. Get your receipt out, go back to the store, and return the unit. Thank you.

Back? Excellent. While...

Pros: Fairly inexpensive; separate ink cartridges
Cons: Dubious print quality; shakes more than Elvis; LOUD!

Don't plan to use this when your family is sleeping -- heck, if anybody on your block is sleeping!


I have been using this printer for close to a year now, after "upgrading" from a Canon BJC-4300. I was attracted to the...

Pros: Great ink setup. Excellent color and speed.
Cons: Photos less quality than expected.

My life seems to be haunted by this love-hate relationship I have with ink-jet printers.

My first was an HP-500 followed by almost every other HP in the series. I stopped at the HP-540 and switched to a Lexmark. Then, after many problems, I...
