Canon BJC 250 InkJet Printer

Pros: Good quality printing, easy to use
Cons: Every now and then visited by BJC-250 trolls who play jokes.

I’ve had my Canon Bubble Jet Printer, Canon BJC-250, for a little over three years now and it’s still kicking and working. Although I know there are better printers out there, I will continue to use this one until it decides to die on me. I have...

Pros: Compact size, upright style. Easy replacement of carts. Works w/different paper types.
Cons: Envelopes tend to stick.

What good is a computer without a printer to make all those fun little things, right? The thank you notes, birthday invitations and personalized cards. A little over two years ago, I went to Fryes Electronics on a budget looking for a decent little...

Pros: Compact, lightweight and easy to use.
Cons: Doesn't warn you when you're about to run out of ink.

I've had my Canon printer since I bought my computer nearly 4 years ago. I didn't know very much then except that I wanted a computer and didn't want to spend a fortune. At the time, a friend of mine was selling systems for some extra income and he put...

Pros: Quality printing, great price
Cons: Slow for high volume work

I bought this printer well over a year ago when I started college. I needed something to print my assignments on with my laptop but could not afford anything too pricey. We hunted our local stores and came across this Canon 250 printer. At $99, we...

Pros: inexpensive, acceptable quality of printing, reliable machine
Cons: doesn't print at a professional level

Summary: You get what you pay for here, which is a mediocre printer that consistently gets by with OK quality. If that's alright by you, then this printer will be alright too.

Pros: none
Cons: never worked correctly; Cannon will not replace with new printer

This is a terrible printer, and I would recommend that you do not purchase it. Canon has not been a good company to deal with, at least not for me.

I purchased a new computer over a year ago, and this printer came with it. From the minute I...

Pros: Versatile, good quality color images, inexpensive
Cons: Cartridges are tricky to install, NOT good for high volume

I used to swear that I would never own a Canon Bubblejet printer because I had heard nothing but complaints about expensive cartridges and smeared pages, however, my opinion of the Bubblejet has changed dramatically now that I have one of my own...

Pros: easy to use and install, cheap price
Cons: Cartridges are around $26 for black and white, sometimes not so smooth

When I started college in the fall of 1998, I needed a printer for my computer. I needed one that was not too expensive but still printed with some quality. After talking to various people - both friends of my family and those in the stores - I decided...

Pros: does print
Cons: unreliable

I purchased this product with the intent of printing things out from it. The person who would most benefit from using this product would have to be either a student in school or a person in business that needs to print many different articles of...

Pros: Good quality text and images, reasonably quick for an inkjet
Cons: Must swap cartridge for true blacks

I've been using this printer for almost 3 years now and during this period its given me great service. I have never ever had any problems with it and it still works like brand new.

The printer is very easy to use. The supplied drivers are...

Pros: Light and Compact
Cons: Too many problems to deal with

On the family computer in my den at my mother's house, we have a Canon BJC-250 to print on. Let me tell you, this printer has given me more problems than anything.

I think the printer is possessed. Really. We've brought it into the shop...

Pros: Initial purchase price good
Cons: Operating cost BAD...

There isn't much to say bad about this printer except the expensive cost of the color (and the black for that matter) cartridges. So I far I haven't even been able to find a place that refills them or recycles them at an exchange and discount to the next...

Pros: great when printing in black ink; great deals on cartridges if you look around
Cons: Slow and Loud when printing in color

I was introduced to the Canon BJC 250 two years ago at my former place of employment where I worked as an office assistant. I used the Canon BJC 250 on a daily basis for both color as well as black and white printing. On a few occasions, I would joke...

Pros: Price, good for simple things, quality is decent.
Cons: Single ink cartridge, expensive to replace, slow

...I got this printer for free, with purchase of my computer system. I thought, hey!, it's Canon, they're good, and it's free, that's awesome!

At the time, this was my first foray into computers, I had no clue what email or an ISP was, back...

Pros: Dirt Cheap, simple drivers, compact unit
Cons: Awful color quality, painfully slow, clunky and problematic

I'm going to keep this brief, as there are enough scattered opinions on this printer to baffle the interested. Let me suffice by saying: I was given a pair of these for free, and I still hate them.

Office revisions and upgrades allowed me to...
