A Look at the Canon Pixma iP1980




The Canon Pixma iP1980 is a four-color inkjet printer that runs on two cartridges - Black and Tri-color.

It is based on the Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black color base.

It utilizes a 2 picoliter droplet system for its printhead and delivers up to 4800 x 1200 dpi as its maximum resolution.

Printing a full-page A4 image on a glossy sheet takes 40 to 50 seconds on this printer.

Having thirty units of this type in my shops, this unit has proven it's worth especially when you are eyeing on document printing, which can run as fast as 23 pages per minute.

The downside of this machine is the sensitivity of the printhead. It burns out fast. Luckily enough, the printhead is built along with the cartridge, a replacement will cost between $ 1.00 to $ 20.00 if you choose to have the sealed one.

As of writing, my Canon Pixma iP1980 printed no less than 40,000 pages each already and still running.

Under normal circumstances, it has a life cycle of 6,000 pages. You can perpertuate it until the machine break mechanically.

My rating for this machine:

serviceability: 8/10
speed: 8/10
output: 7/10
