Product Description
Get beautiful color and crisp monochrome prints with the BJC-6000 Color Bubble Jet printer. This printer is perfect for home, school or small office use, with its economical ink system and network connectivity option. The BJC-6000 outputs color and black prints at 1440 x 720 dpi resolution, at up to 5 ppm color, 8 ppm black. With an expanded print nozzle system, it prints an area twice as large in one pass for increased print speed without decreased print quality. The installed black and color cartridges have replaceable ink tanks to replace only the color that is out, and optical low-ink sensors warn of low levels for timely refills. An optional Photo BJ cartridge adds photo-quality print capabilities for professional brochures, greeting cards or other high-quality graphics. This printer has a 130-sheet paper tray, and prints on media up to legal size, plus banners. Use plain and specialty papers, envelopes, cards and transparencies. Canon sends along its Creative Pro software to help you create custom documents and crafts, including brochures, banners, flyers and T-shirts. It includes Adobe PhotoDeluxe Business Edition, Office in Color, Design Essentials and WebRecord. The BJC-6000 uses a parallel port interface and comes with printer drivers for Windows 3.1/95/98 and Windows NT 4.0. It can be connected to a network with an optional AXIS PrintPoint 140 BJC network server. Or add Mac OS compatibility with the soon-to-be-released BJC-6000 USB Kit, for Apple systems with USB port and OS 8.1 or later.
Amazon.com Review
The Canon BJC-6000 is designed for both busy workplaces and home offices. It provides fast, affordable, professional-quality, high-resolution black and color printing. An intelligent ink system with individual tanks eliminates waste and saves money, and optional Canon Photo Inks and specialty paper create amazing near-photo-quality output.

To set up the Canon BJC-6000, we followed the instructions on the Quick Start guide. Because the BJC-6000 comes with several large tanks (one each for black, cyan, magenta, and yellow), and because the tanks and cartridges are separate, setup took longer than usual. The Canon Creative Pro CD-ROM comes with several complementary applications, so software installation took a little longer as well.

In our test of the BJC-6000, we printed several color and black-and-white samples in each of the printer's four modes--draft, good, better, and best. Our samples included graphics, large and small letters, and a variety of fonts and color shades. Black text was razor sharp and approached the quality of a modest laser printer. There was only a tiny bit of ink bleeding, even on normal uncoated paper, and a multi-colored tight-register sample looked especially impressive.

We also scanned and printed a 32-bit color photograph. Even without the optional Canon Photo Inks and specialty paper, the hard copy was warm and detailed, capturing the texture of the original with surprising accuracy. We also appreciated the speed--up to five pages per minute (ppm) in color.

The Canon BJC-6000 is an impressive bubble-jet printer with a great software bundle; it would make an excellent addition to any small office.

Product Description

The Canon BJC-6000 is the smart choice for all your printing needs, whether for a busy workplace or a home office. It establishes a new benchmark in affordable, professional-quality printing by adding intelligent functions that help you work smarter. From fast, high resolution black and color printing to amazing photo output using optional Canon Photo Inks. Plus, an intelligent ink system featuring individual ink tanks that eliminates ink waste and saves you money.The Canon Think Tank System is an intelligent ink-management system unique to the BJC-6000 Color Bubble Jet printer. It features individual ink tanks for each color ink, so you replace only the color you need as it runs out. Wasting ink by having to replace all the colors in a cartridge just because one color is spent is a thing of the past. The BJC-6000 uses individual ink tanks for each color. When one runs out, simply replace that color - not the entire cartridge. No more ink waste - just big money savings. Ever run out of ink right in the middle of an important print job? Never again. The BJC-6000's built-in optical low-ink sensor actually warns you with an on-screen message when a specific ink tank is low. So you can replace the empty ink tank just at the right time.

4 out of 5 stars Good product for the money.......2003-11-24

I've had my BJC 6000 for over 5 years and am very satisfied with the product. The print quality is still great after all these years and hundreds (if not a couple thousand) of copies for me and the kids. I found the ink tank system to be exceptional. I never threw out any unused ink like I did with my HP multicolor cartidges. I was going thru quite a few cartridges and started to refill my own. I've saved a lot of money however, the quality is just not the same no matter what the inkjet aftermarket folks say. For the quality jobs, I stick with genuine canon products. The only griped I've had are the startup is noisy and the hign resolution printing is sloooow. However, I'd buy another BJC 600 except... in the past few years the ink jet printers have gotten even cheaper and better!

1 out of 5 stars Don't do what I did.......2002-02-05

I bought one of these printers and fresh out of the box it didn't work. They sent me a refurbished printer for a brand new printer. They did see the error of their ways and sent me a new printer which lasted a few months before I had to send that one back. They sent me another printer and that one lasted the longest about 7 months. Overall, in one year I went through 5 of these printers before I said enough and they pro-rated my refund. So if you're a risk taker go ahead and buy it.
