Canon BJ-30 manual Features and Benefits

Features and Benefits

The BJ-30 Bubble Jet Printer produces high quality printing by incorporating many useful features.

Compact Design

The printer is very compact and lightweight (3.1 lb/1.4 kg). It is perfect for use in your home where space is valuable, and its ultra-compact design makes the printer easily transportable. Using the optional battery pack, you can print documents without AC power. With a fully charged battery, the printer can print up to 200 pages.

Excellent Print Quality and Speed

The printer’s high performance print head offers 720 (horizontal) by 360 (vertical) dots per inch (dpi) for high resolution printing. Your printer offers both vibrant print quality and exceptional print speed.

High Quality Ink

The new BJ (bubble jet) cartridge, BC-10, employs high quality, light- resistant ink. The ink dries quickly, looks great on plain paper, and is smudge-resistant.

Simple Maintenance

The BC-10 Black BJ cartridge contains both the replaceable print head and the black ink tank. You can replace the ink tank when it runs out of ink. In case the print head is damaged, you simply replace the entire cartridge.

Convenient Paper Handling

A built-in automatic sheet feeder holds up to 30 sheets of plain paper, 10 sheets of coated paper, transparencies or back print film, or 5 envelopes.

Software Compatibility

Three resident printer control modes enable the printer to work with a wide variety of software applications. Chapter 4, Using the Printer With Your Software, describes the printer control modes.

Versatile Graphics Print Functions

You can produce excellent graphics and high quality printing. The printer gives you the output quality of a laser printer and enables you to create attractive presentations even while on the road.

Smoothing

This feature refines your printout by polishing away the jagged edges and ragged stair-stepping curves of characters and graphics, and enables the printer to print both text and graphics at 720 by 360 dpi.

TrueType Fonts

The Canon TrueType™ Font Pack contains 20 scalable fonts to enhance your font capability and improve your print quality.

Quiet Printing

The nonimpact printing method offers quiet operation.
