Canon’s Pixma series of photo printers is known for great quality photo printing and the Pixma 480 is no exception. It is an all in one device (meaning that it scans as well as prints) and is Bluetooth compatible, providing for wireless connectivity with other compatible devices.
Portability
The compact size and portability of this printer together with its built-in LCD display means that you can take this unit with you on the go even without a computer. You can use the LCD display to select and print images from a Canon camera or a memory card, so you can print without being attached to a computer. The red-eye correction lets you improve your photograph on the screen prior to printing. Where ever you are you can have great quality prints with ease in just a matter of seconds.

Price
With the Pixma 480, users get all they want in a multifunction device with a price that only makes it more attractive. In the $100 range, you can now get photo quality prints without overextending yourself.
Ink
Users will be pleased to learn that Canon has decided to use separate cartridges for the ink colors in this printer rather than combining all the ink into one cartridge. If you use up one color of ink, you don’t have to throw away all the remaining ink: all you do is replace the one color cartridge that has run out.
Cons
You’ll have to look very hard for something to complain about in the Canon Pixma 480. The print speed is not all that it could be, but while it makes sense that a printer in this price range will not be the fastest on the market, its rated speed of 16 color pages per minute (20 pages per minute for black and white) should be adequate.
