The print technology components inside the machine also comprise 1472 nozzles, of which 320 are for black document printing. On the other hand, color documents use up to 1152 nozzles to produce their highest print quality output. Similarly, the machine makes a minimum ink droplet size of 2 and 5 picolitres (pl) for economic ink consumption. Its print quality resolution is up to 600 x 600 dots per inch (dpi) for black documents.
However, color print resolution from this Canon PIXMA MP480 can reach a level of 4800 x 1200 dpi. Similarly, the compatible standard paper sizes include letter, legal, US envelopes, and photo paper sizes. It also has an automatic sheet feeder that can contain 100 pages of plain paper to print. The copying process also runs at a similar rate to the printing process. For instance, black documents copy at the rate of 20 copies per minute (CPM), equivalent to 3.0 seconds per page.
On the flipside, color documents have a copy rate of 16 CPM, which is as fast as 3.8 seconds per page. Other copy-related features may include AE copy, borderless copy, fit-to-page quality, frame erase copy, and multiple copies. Scanning also works through the contact image sensor (CIS) element. This mode can also produce an optical resolution of 2400 x 4800 dpi while interpolated resolution reaches 19200 x 19200 dpi. Download Canon PIXMA MP480 driver from Canon Website
