good at first but then has lots of problems.......2007-01-24

I travel a lot and have a lot of Canon equipment, so I thought this would be a good choice. Prints look good and it is super small. Unfortunately, I had to take it in for a full rebuild 3 times under warranty, and I really don't use it much at all. That might be part of the problem. The heads dry out really fast, and after a while, it doesn't even see the new ink cartridges. My cost per print runs about $3 because of the waisted ink. It has definitely NOT worked a lot more than it has worked. Prints that I made on the canon photo paper faded right away. In conclusion, I have 6 Epson printers, and they have problems as well, but nothing like the Canon. Not recommended.

Very disappointing and not sturdy at all.......2006-10-10

I purchased the Canon I80 printer as I wanted a small portable unit for training and conference events. The unit has broken down multiple times, the heads dry out and get clogged all the time and every time I turn around something else goes wrong...I purchased the unit for $250 and have spent as much keeping it going and only used it 12 times. It has now failed again and they want another $240 to fix it. Really a waste of money. I would not buy this product again.

Printer Heads Dry Out .......2006-08-24

I agree wholeheartedly with Mark Page-Botelho's review. This printer is not for regular use. I had the same problem with the black print head drying out. The available maintenence functions have not been helpful, and the Canon service reps advice similarly has lead to a lot of wasted time and frustration, along with a lot of wasted ink and paper from doing cleaning and testing repeatedly.

Canon i80 Is it worth it?.......2006-07-27

We've used this printer a little over one year and loved it. Unfortunately, now it is plagued with problems. First of all the print head is extremely sensitive to drying out and is very difficult to impossible to clean using the printer's clean function or doing it manually. Canon offers a replacement head for $65. Next the ink cleaning reservoir with normal use will fill up in about a year. To replace it will cost $120 and is only available through Canon. The print does travel well which is its intended use, but for an everyday printer you might want to look elsewhere.

waste ink absorber.......2006-03-04

My original I80 was purchased in June of 2004. By January of 2005 it was replaced due to a print head malfunction. Cannon replaced such with a refurbished model. Here it is March of 2006 and an error message is preventing documents from printing. Error message - Waste ink absorber full, check page 60 or so of your manuals for a description which includes contacting Cannon customer care. Response from Cannon customer care - bring it to an Authorized Service Facilty, cost $50.00 or so for the part and to re-set the printer. Or purchase a new one through Cannon loyalty Program with the whopping "Thank You" discount of 10%. I applaud the transport convenience, the small ink cartridges, the compact design, the ability to print borderless pictures. Somehow or another I have difficulty with the "not mentioned" maintenance cost of $50.00, for an average user, waste ink absorber. For self serving purposes - does anyone have an idea what a waste ink absorber is? I'm going back to my old ink jet printer which over the last five years has never needed extra maintenance nor something to absorb wasted ink.
