Advantages: cheap(initially), good quality print outs

Disadvantages: slowwwww, gulps ink

I bought a Canon BJC-1000 printer when on a tight budget and was pleasantly surprised by its performance. The Canon BJC-1000 is a very good budget printer, offering a print quality which will be more than good enough for the average home user. It is easy to setup under Windows 98, simply a case of running the CD and I have never had a problem with paper jams or such like.

One of its major weaknesses is however, its speed. Printing a large document or graphics can take for ever and if you use the high print quality setting it absolutely drinks ink. Therefore if you intend to use you printer alot then you would be well advised to steer clear from this offering but for light use it is a very good option.

Another problem is that the Canon BJC-1000 is one of those printers which requires you to switch the ink cartridges around if you intend to print in colour or in black and white, there is no space provided for both cartridges at once. True, this is not too much of a problem and if you are not too worried about ink expenditure then the colour cartridge prints in black as well by mixing the colours.

Overall though it is a very solidly designed printer which I have had for a while now without coming across any problems whatsoever and as long as you fall within the bracket of a home user who uses their printer very lightly then this is the perfect option to go for. If you intend using your printer often then this could work out to be an expensive option due to the amount of ink that it uses.
