Canon BJC-4400 user manual Introduction

NCanon has more engineers dedicated to creating quality ink for providing the best results for output on Bubble Jet printers than any other organization. Canon does not prohibit the use of third-party inks and the use of third-party inks does not invalidate the product’s limited warranty. However, Canon cannot guarantee the quality or performance of your printer when you are using inks from other suppliers.

Canon’s limited warranty does not cover damage caused to Canon’s Bubble Jet products that is attributable to the use of third party parts or supplies, including inks. The limited warranty remains in effect for its life once that particular damage has been properly repaired.

For optimum printing results, Canon recommends that you use only Canon BJ cartridges and BJ tanks.

You can also purchase the optional Canon BC-22e Photo Kit, which includes everything you need to produce photo-realistic images:

❍BC-22e Photo BJ Cartridge

❍SB-21 Ink Cartridge Storage Box

❍Canon High Resolution Paper HR-101 (60 sheets)

See Chapter 4, Maintaining the Printer, for details on replacing

BJ cartridges.
