Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Uniting the engine of the popular Canon i455 photo printer and Canon's own scanner technology, the MultiPASS MP360 helps your busy home or small office minimize your desktop clutter. This single unit combines the functions of a scanner, copier, and printer. With printing and copying speeds at up to 18 ppm black and 12 ppm color, it easily keeps pace with business demands while its rich colors and low-cost consumables make it the perfect companion to electronic craft projects.

You can archive your family photos or digitize your research, thanks to the flatbed color scanner, which has an optical resolution of 1,200 x 2,400 dpi (9,600 x 9,600 dpi interpolated). Included scanning software can help you edit, organize, and smooth out your images to improve the fine details--your copies may look better than the original when all is said and done! 48-bit color and 16-bit grayscale provide realistic colors and accurate and subtle shading with high contrast.

The printer offers 600 x 600 dpi for black pages and 4,800 x 1,200 dpi for photographic color; it's compatible with a wide variety of papers. The two-cartridge system makes replacing empty ink tanks a snap. The M360 is compatible with Windows-based systems and connects via a high-speed USB 2.0 cable. Canon includes a one-year warranty with Instant Exchange service.

What's in the Box
M360 Multifunction, 1 black ink tank, 1 color ink tank, power cable, warranty card, setup card, setup software and user's guide disk; USB cable not included

5.0 out of 5 stars A great occassional use printer., May 9, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Canon MultiPass MP360 Multifunction (Office Product)
After paying $30.00 for HP cartridges for years, I selected the Canon specifically because the ink cartridges were $7.00 or less and the color $15.00 or less. While I didn't expect the ink to last as long as the HP tanks, I was pleasantly surprised to get well over 100 sheets of greyscale printing by using the draft and standard modes and reserving quality mode only for presentations. In ink savings alone this printer will pay for itself compared with other brands, many many many times over.

The only real problem (and its not really a problem) with the printer is a long warmup period followed by some overdramatic printer head gymnastics when you go to print a document or use the copier. It can take well over 30 seconds between your print request and when the first page actually starts printing, although the printer is speedy enough after it starts. For casual home or office use this really isn't a problem.

The printer is obsessive about cleaning itself because the ink cartridges don't come with a printer head. This reduces the cost of the ink cartridges considerably but the printer has to take extra care in keeping the permanent head clean. So the long warmups are actually saving you money.

Another thing to note is that the scanner is only 8 1/2 by 11 so if you need to scan legal documents this isn't the model for you. If you want to make an occssional copy or scan a photo the scanner is perfect.

Regardless of where you are printing from (photoshop, word processor, or using the copier) print quality is excellent and the supplied drivers makes it easy to configure the printout. All three functions (scanning, printing, and copying) work flawlessly as as you expected.

The supplied software is worth the price of the printer alone offering an adaquate photo retoucher ( this software won't work with .gif images though ), Optical Character Recognition, and little applets to make handling scanned images (storing, attaching to email) easy.

Setup was a mild chore made easier by following the large poster in the box, there was nothing too difficult, mostly removing packaging and installing the printer ink for the first time. The poster was quite insistant that the USB cable (which is not included and must be purchased seperately) not be attached until last.

The unit itself is about a foot tall, a legal page wide, and a page and a half deep. So it's taller than you might expect. The unit is shiney black plastic, although the top is a more attractive textured black. The sides are light gray. They match the 2004 model Dell computers fairly well. Another nice feature is the output hopper can be folded up when not in use to save space and it just looks nicer. When you print, the hopper will automatically open.

There is no USB cable included with the printer so you'll need to get one. The Belkin cable Amazon recommends with this printer is a great value and works with either USB 1.0 or 2.0 (the printer can understand both). The printer does come with a color and black ink cartridge. The ink cartridge is the popular and widely used BCI-24 series, I had no problem finding replacements on Amazon, Wal Mart, and my local office supply stores.

All told this is a perfect home/small office unit that will fit just about any budget. After a month's use, I'm very satisfied with the quality and value of this printer.

4.0 out of 5 stars You can't lose with Canon, July 16, 2004

This review is from: Canon MultiPass MP360 Multifunction (Office Product)
After two horrible experiences with HP printers I purchased a Canon i550 two years ago. It never disappointed. When I decided I wanted scanning and copying capability it was a sure thing to stick with Canon. I have been using this multipass for about a month now and I am very happy with it. Great photo & document print quality. And, as well known, one great advantage to Canon printers is the reasonably priced ink cartridges. I LOVE having the ability to use the copy function when the pc is not on. This makes my bill keeping and schoolwork much easier. This mfp looks impressive on the desk and is a dark navy blue color with silver details. The only aspect of the printer that has bothered me is the size; it's a little on the large side. But, this is minor in my office as I have plenty of room for it. Looking at other mfp's at the stores, the large size is pretty standard. I ordered this on Amazon (...)- a FABULOUS price for the function and quality of this Canon. Thanks, Amazon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent multi-functional product, March 26, 2004
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Canon MultiPass MP360 Multifunction (Office Product)
*Very easy to setup and use.
*Excellent print quality.
*Scans of pictures look great.
*Copier function is easy to use, don't even need to have computer turned on.
*Fast printing.

I want to clear up a negative comment an earlier reviewer said that this machine runs out of ink quickly.

The machine itself doesn't use up the ink quickly, Canon always packages their ink cartridges so that they are economical to the average user(consumer).

What I mean is that most of the time you can buy the "black" Canon ink cartridge for typically less than $10 compared to Hewlett Packard which sells it's black ink cartridges for typically $25+. The difference being in the two products is the amount of ink contained in each one. The Canon ink cartridge for $10 has maybe half the ink that the Hewlett Packard $25 ink cartridge has.

For the average user like myself, I like given the choice of buying a smaller ink cartridge for $10 rather than being stuck with paying $25 for a size ink cartridge that will take you forever to use.

Get the idea?

A decent scanner alone would cost almost this amount, but in this product you get all 3 (printer,copier,scanner) in one. Excellent product Canon, A+
