BJC-6000
The Canon BJC-6000 is a color printer that can be turned into a photo printer. It also produces crisp and solid black text and would be a good fit in a small business setting, as long as that office had low graphic needs. This inkjet unit can produce up to 8 pages per minute when using black Canon BJC-6000 ink and up to 5 pages per minute in color. Since being discontinued, the value of it has gone down to around $100, but it was originally sold for nearly $200 because of its innovative printer ink system that set it apart from other models using HP 96 ink.
Containing a 148kb RAM, this Windows and Mac compatible inkjet device was among the leaders of a printer revolution. It was one of the first devices manufactured with separate tanks for each individual color. In previous models, there were only two cartridges, one with black printer ink, and one with cyan, magenta and yellow. Not only does this new system enable these colors to blend together more accurately, but it saves consumers tremendously by not wasting Canon BJC-6000 ink. However, a Phaser 8400 offers a lower cost per page with Xerox 108R00606 ink.
Each Canon BJC-6000 ink cartridge has a page yield over 300 and is affordable to replace. The most interesting feature, though, is the capability to remove the black print head and install 3 photo Canon BJC-6000 ink cartridges. This transition virtually turns the color unit into a photo unit. All of these high quality ink tanks create a resolution of 1440x730 dpi, which is not bad for an inkjet. Laser printers will reach higher resolutions, such as produced by Dell 310-7896 toner.
The Canon BJC-6000 has been discontinued by Canon but is still considered one of the first steps in the direction of easier and better color images. It may be a bit slower than new models, and perhaps it does not have a competitive photo quality, but for standard use and reliability, the BJC-6000 is worth a second look.
