I've been using this inkjet printer for years, and it has lasted longer that any other printer I've ever owned.
The Canon Pixma ip3000 printer may be a discontinued model, but if you have one, it's probably still working. True Canon Pixma ip3000 is a great printer If you can find an used working one in decent shape, run to get it and it will save you a lot of money. Unfortunately they have stop making it for a few years. I sure will miss this printer when it finally dies. I have been refilling it myself for the last few years and never had any problem except one ink tank was replaced due to the sponge inside the ink tank dried out. This Canon has four individual ink tanks. Even if you try to refill it yourselves, it will not work. Unlike many newer Canon (and other brands) printer, the ink cartridge has a built-ink smart chip that you have to use their own new cartridge. 2) It can use off-brand or refillable inks. It only pauses for a few seconds but it works. In between printer two sides, it pauses and indicates on the screen that it is waiting for the ink to dry. The two most lovable features from this printer are: 1) automatic duplex printing - no need to manually flip and feed the paper back in. It can handle many different sizes and kinds of paper.
As soon as I connected it up and start using it for a few days, I fell into love with this printer. I was not expecting too much but a disposable kind of printer when the ink ran out. This was in a great low price at the time. I bought this Canon IP3000 printer a few years ago. I think I'll stick with canon printers for a long time since it seems to be the best quality built printers. I have since bought 2 Canon printers and they are all working fine. The photo print quality isn't spectacular, but for it being one of the first generation home photo printers, it sure does a decent job. The inks are all separate which makes it last longer than if all the colors are combined into 1 cartridge. This printer normal text print quality is great. So like the other reviewer said, although this product has been discountinued, if you still have it, it's probably still working for you because it definitely is working for me. I've had an Epson printer that seem to last forever too, so I was just amazed that the HP printers were having mechanical issues. I didn't start to value it until 2, that's right, 2 HP printers I had broke which were newer than this Canon IP3000. Since it was free, I didn't care too much about it. I actually got this printer for free with the purchase of a Canon SD500 camera so long ago.
I've had this printer for over 3 years! I love this thing.
