Before I start, to avoid any confusion I’m talking about the Canon BJC 2100 printer.
This printer is a great little buy. It offers reliability, an attractive design and also being a Canon gives you the reassurance that any faults will be sorted out in the minimum time, absoloutely hassle-free.
The printer itself firstly looks good, as far as printers go. It is very quick on printing, especially in the ’draft’ mode, and quality of almost all my printouts have been second to none. I regulary use its ’photoprinting’ feature, and, although its rather slow in this respect, the picture quality is almost perfect and comparable to photoprocessing labs. To make maximum use of the photoprinting I would reccomend using ’glossy’ paper.
The Canon BJC-2000 is very easy to use, and loading ink cartidges only takes a matter of seconds!
The printer can fit about 60-70 sheets in it’s autofeeder although Canon only says 50. The printer has a good buffer memory, compared to many other printers I have had, and also comes with all the relevant software that you need, including extra ’bonus’ software from Canon.
Many people don’t realise this, but the Canon BJC-2000 can also act as a scanner! The results are not as good as many purpose built scanners, but as an extra feature for a low - usage user it is excellent.
Also, the printer is great for those on a budget. I am a student, and bought the printer for £39.99, expecting much less for the pricetag. However, it beats many £100 printers I have come across, and is great for the purposes I intended it for. The ink cartridges themselves are very cheap too- I recently purchased 6 for £16 and these were Canon originals!
All in all, I would recommmend this printer who people who are after a good, reliable and cheap printer, especially to my fellow students.
