Canon PIXMA MP480 Driver Download - Canon's Pixma MP480 is an inexpensive multifunction ink-jet printer with an integrated flatbed scanner and copier. This basic all-in-one unit doesn't have all of the fancy features found onsome of the MFPs we've tested recently, like integrated fax capabilities, an automatic document feeder, or wireless connectivity; but the MP480 proved to be a very capable device in all of its functions.
In terms of print speed, the MP480 was a solid performer. Ittook 25 seconds to print a 1-page Word document, slower than some of our recently reviewed ink-jet MFPs that printed the same document in about 18 seconds. Printing a 10-page Word document, however, showed the MP480 to be faster on longer jobs than those other ink-jets. The MP480's print quality received Very Good marks from our jury and even managed a Superior text printing score, a difficult ranking to attain for ink-jets. Our standard picnic tests photo looked great, with accurate color, good shadow detail, and continuous tone with no visible dots.
Scanning times were fast, though the speed was mainly due to the fact that the scanner is limited to producing 24-bit images instead of the 48-bit images preferred by imaging professionals. But 24-bit images have plenty of image data for the majority of users, and it's doubtful that color pros will be considering a US$100 all-in-one printer for their primary workhorse. That said, the MP480 scans were of Very Good color quality; they were a touch red and a little dark, but that's nothing a little tweaking couldn't fix. The scanner also performed well on our resolution test chart scans, having no problem capturing many fine details.
