  • I have an old Canon BJC 255SP printer which I like to use for document printing because I've been able to refill the cartridges at little cost. However, after the last refills the printer ink doesn't seem to flow correctly resulting in an unreadable print out. Only a portion of each character prints. I've done nozzle checks but that hasn't helped. I'm wondering if the problem might be the multi-used cartridges and / or the ink I've been using. Do you think one of your cartridges would fix the problem?

    Canon BJC-255SP ink refills

    It sounds like you may have some dried ink either in the printhead or in the cartridge itself. If you get a damp cloth and wipe the ink nozzle then reinstall the Canon BJC-255SP cartridge this should get you back up and running. Alternatively, buying a new compatible BJC-255SP ink refill from Cartridge Save should fix the problem.

This personal colour inkjet printer promises high-quality and photo-like results for home printing needs. With a simple and straightforward interface, the Canon BJC-255SP is as user-friendly as it gets with a low initial cost and versatile media handling. Unfortunately, it can be a hassle to switch ink cartridges to produce true black output.

Design

The Canon BJC-255SP inkjet printer weighs approximately 2.5kg. Its compact frame (measuring 14.2 inches wide, 6.8 inches tall, and 8.5 inches deep) lets it fit into limited desktop space. The main connectivity is provided by a parallel interface while the integrated RAM is 62KB. The Bubble Jet Colour 255SP printer uses a straight media path, with the media feeder at the rear and the output area in front.

Advantages

It is energy-efficient, quiet, and easy to use. Users can print on different types of media with the Canon BJC-255SP printer, including coated paper, greeting cards, high-gloss film, envelopes, and fabric. The overall media capacity (100 sheets) is more than generous for occasional and home printing needs. Text documents look crisp at 720x360dpi. Users are also praising the Canon BJC 255SP colour printer for being affordable.

Disadvantages

The problem with the Canon BJC255SP printer is that you need to replace the colour cartridges with black ink to print true black text. Otherwise, you will have to use the colour inks to print black, thereby wasting money. Slow print speeds also plague the Canon BJC-255SP, which is only capable of printing up to 4ppm in monochrome and 0.5ppm in colour. The BJC-255SP doesn't offer postscript support and it cannot be shared by multiple users.
