Advantages: Quick for text, very good quality prints even on normal paper Disadvantages: Very Heavy, cartridges are big but expensive
I have had this printer for a year and a half now, and it has proved to be a superb piece of kit. The quality of printing is very high, even on normal plain paper (i.e. not high-resolution paper), and then it is even better when using a photo-print cartridge. This printer also does not cost that much for the quality received.
There are a few drawbacks though. If you want a high quality print, you have to wait for a while, the colour cartridges ... ...then you have to replace the entire cartridge). This is not good news because the cartridges are big (so you don't replace them often), but they also cost about £45 each. So far however, I have not had to replace them, and on average I print one high quality print a week. The heads need cleaning after about 3 months, but as far as I can see this is the extent of the drawbacks.

I have had this printer for a year and a half now, and it has proved to be a superb piece of kit. The quality of printing is very high, even on normal plain paper (i.e. not high-resolution paper), and then it is even better when using a photo-print cartridge. This printer also does not cost that much for the quality received. There are a few drawbacks though. If you want a high quality print, you have to wait for a while, the colour cartridges have 3 in one colours (so if one runs out, then you have to replace the entire cartridge). This is not good news because the cartridges are big (so you don't replace them often), but they also cost about £45 each. So far however, I have not had to replace them, and on average I print one high quality print a week. The heads need cleaning after about 3 months, but as far as I can see this is the extent of the drawbacks. The printer can print on acetate, many different kinds of paper, as well as fabric transfers. If you just want to use the black cartridge for text, it'll print at great speed, a page in about 6 seconds. The service that comes with it is good as well (I had to call out an engineer to fix the printer as something was not right, and the engineer removed a rubber band that had got stuck - to this day I still don't know how it got there, but anyway).... Overall, if you want good quality from an inkjet (so lasers are excluded), but don't use a printer daily, then I would say this is the printer for you. Hope this helps someone get some good value quality prints somewhere!!
Canon produced a printer of high quality for a fair price. It is necessary to clean from time to time the heads - but if you do you will get printings of top quality.
There are two ink cartridges, one for only black and another for the three important colors: yellow, cyane and blue. There are acustic signs if one of the cartridges is empty - so keep always both cartrigdes in stock. If you hear five acustic signs it will mean that the black cartridge ...

Advantages: Good quality Disadvantages: takes long to warm up
This printer has been around for about 5 years and still it is a very good and solid printer. It has often been said that it was the best printer for over a year and it still is one of the best that I have seen so far. The menu and print quality are excellent. The only downturn is the time it takes until you can start printing. The warming up time is one of the longest that I know. But than again it is worth it. Not only has it got a colour cartridge, ...

Manufacturer's product description
Photograph? Bubble Jet Print? With Canon's Color Bubble Jet printer, the BJC-7000, you really have difficulty telling them apart. Quality so high, using technology so advanced, means that all your documents will be superbly printed onto any media from everyday plain paper to Canon's Glossy Photo Paper. The BJC-7000 uses advanced Plain Paper Optimized Printing to produce high quality results on plain paper. It can also be used to print on a wide variety of other types of display and photographic media. The special dye-based inks in the resident black and color cartridges are water-fast, smudge proof and fade resistant; crisp black text and vibrant colors can all be printed on the same page. Up to 130 sheets of paper can be loaded at a time into the printer's automatic sheet feeder, saving time and enhancing productivity. Film, card and other print media can be loaded into the machine via a manual feeder, which accepts any weight of material up to 550 gsm that's heavier than most business cards. The printer is easy to set up and control. Just load the printer driver, and away you go - no specialist computer knowledge is required.
