 Great performance for the price July 13, 2008
S. Ehrman (Abingdon, MD United States)

I just bought this, so if you are looking for long-term performance this isn't the review for you. But so far I like what I have seen.
There were problems with the previous model (4280?), including bad text printing performance, so I wanted to stay away from that model. I saw this one and couldn't find any reviews, so I went ahead and bought it, hoping it would be better. As far as I can tell, the text printing (along with photo and normal graphics) is certainly good enough. It is a bit slow, but for most people (myself included) who don't need to print reams of paper every hour, it isn't that big of a deal.
Scanning/copying is a little bit slow as well, but again not a big deal to me. It will just be nice to have a capable copier in the house.
I haven't used some of the functionality, such as the card reader, but printing, scanning and (PC-less) copying seem to work great.
Installation is easy (as long as you don't have Windows 2000 like the first dolt, er, person reviewing this printer), though it takes longer than I would have suspected, as it is loading up your computer with oodles of junk-ware that will most likely never be run. I'll most likely go back later and clean those things out the best I can. But that's what I get for being lazy and telling it to install everything.
Setup couldn't be more straightforward. I've never owned an all-in-one before, so I was a bit surprised that after it printed the print-head alignment page, instead of it asking me to look and see how lined up it was, it told me to put the page into the scanner, and it aligned itself. Brilliant.
This thing looks great, is remarkably compact and feels sturdy. Make sure you have a USB cable when you buy it, as it is not included.

I didn't buy this to print photos in particular but rather to just replace my old printer. It prints things just fine but photos on the other hand are not so good. The quality is poor on the photos and are very pixelated.

I am dissapointed with this priner. First of all, I have to say that the reason I bought it was to print text and pictures and something that would work well with Vista. Text was fine. Installation was easy. But I have to say that the pictures did NOT turn out well. I compaired the same exact photos of this printer with my four-year old hp version all-in-one and these pictures were truly BAD. Grainy and pixalated. I'm very upset that I have to go through the hassle of repackaging and returning. I didn't expect professional photographs but I definitely expected better that this. If you aren't going to print pictures to put in frames, and are just looking for a cheap text printer, than this is good, but if you print photos much, I don't recommend the C4480.

 Won't work with Windows 2000 ****************************** July 3, 2008

Hooked up the new printer, inserted the disc, got a box on the screen that said it won't work with Windows 2000, only with XP or Vista. This gets it a seriously bad review from me.
