Canon BJC 2000 InkJet Printer

Pros: Small/compact, fast accurate prints, owners manual reader friendly
Cons: cleaning is a bit tricky, all the settings for the different prints confusing

I wanted an inexpensive, quality printer/scanner that would not take up a lot of room and perform. I did some research on the topic and came up with the Canon BJC 2000.
From the first time I took the unit out of the box I was happy with my...

Pros: Very inexpensive printer and ink
Cons: Grainy images

I purchased the Canon BJC-2000 to compliment my Compaq Presario purchased while I was a student. This little machine did the job that I needed it to perform -- it printed my homework clearly. It operated more quickly than my previous dot matrix, but...

Pros: Decent printing quality
Cons: Ink thirsty, ink dries out fast, expensive ink cartridges

This is one of those inexpensive printers that they often throw in when you buy a complete computer package. You don't pay much for the printer, but you pay dearly for the ink, and often. It seems that I hardly get any copies printed, and my cartridges...

Pros: It's cheap, does the job for me
Cons: Not really fast printing, capacity for only two cartridges

(updated Aug 2007 then November 2007) --------------------------- The printer suddenly quit working this month ( Nov 2007 ); there is no activity at all. It is basically 'dead', so a replacement Canon printer ( BJC 4200 ) has been purchased. ...

Pros: None, except maybe it's inexpensive.
Cons: New problem every month.

Bought this as a refurb and have had one problem after another with it. I have spend a year trying to debug this printer and get it to work, still haven't got it to work right; every time I get one problem resolved, something new happens. Latest case,...

Pros: Ink last quite long
Cons: slow printing

I've had many different types of printers before. So far, Canon has been the best quality for the price. Black ink has lasted me a long time, longer than most printers, and at a cheaper cost per carterage than some other printers. Color ink lasts...

Pros: Small, prints clear, beautiful colors.
Cons: Black ink cartridge runs out quickly.

In July 2000, I purchased my first home computer. I did not need a huge, expensive, complicated computer for my needs. After all, all I planned on doing was playing around on the internet and sending emails. After searching through the sale papers, I...

Pros: It came free with our computer
Cons: Canon BJC 2110: cheap print quality, bland colors, SLOW

The Canon BJC 2110 is not listed anywhere, so I'm putting it here, because I want potential buyers to know what they're in for with this printer. When we upgraded our computer two months ago, we had the option of getting a DVD player or printer in the...

Pros: good picture quality, low price
Cons: don't know when you will run out of ink!

I have owned my printer for over a year now, and my only complaint is the cost of the ink. This, of course, is common for ALL ink jet printers. At some point I will get around to trying a refill kit, and that should help.

I have printed a...

Pros: Not too many.
Cons: Print quality doesn't last that long.

At first, this seemed to be a great printer for the price. And it was. It was printing along nicely. But after a couple months the print quality started going downhill. It was starting to print slightly off and spotty. And man, does this thing go through...

Pros: Affordable
Cons: Gobbles up the ink cartridges

I originally purchased the Canon BJC-2000 as part of my computer package through Best Buy.

While I have had no technical problems with the printer, I have been very disappointed in its speed and its ability to go through ink cartridges.
...

Pros: Utter reliability. Virtually never jams, even when fed scraps. Availability of unbelievably cheap ink cartridges!
Cons: None so far. (I've used it a lot for over a year and a half.)

Pros: Easy to use and install, good quality.
Cons: Never prints in color.

I got this printer with my computer a couple of years ago, because I didn't want to spend a whole lot of money on an expensive printer that didn't do that much better than a cheap one. Now I realize the mistake I made.

I must say that this...

Pros: Good quality for the price
Cons: Low print speed

Before you read this, bear in mind that I'm from little ole England, and thus the pricesd I've listed are what I pay over here, and yes, it's annoying things are so much more expensive over here! As a rough guide, the current exchange rate is about...

Pros: Easy to use, reliable
Cons: No ink level indicator

I've been using it heavily since July 2000, printing on average 100 pages a week (both black & white and color) for my home business. There are 3 cartridges that work with this printer, a black cartridge, a 4 color cartridge (black, cyan, magenta,...
