Good hardware, Lousy software
This device is basically identical to the MF4370dn which is heavily (and positively) reviewed. As near as I can tell there are three differences between the two units:
1) The D480 is beige, the MF4370 black
2) The D480 has am improved document feeder
3) The D480 has more complete duplexing than the MF4370.
I was actually alerted to #3 by an Amazon review. You can put a stack of two-sided documents into the feeder and produce a set of two-sided duplicates. Acco...

A Lemon out of the box
I bought the D480 new on Amazon. Right out of the box it would not copy -- gave an error message 228. I called Canon. They answered quickly but took over five minutes on hold to conclude it was a lamp related problem. I expected they would send a new replacement copier, but NO. They will exchange for a "reconditioned" one (they will pay shipping), or I can take it to a service center, over 20 miles away.
What kind of custome service is that?
Then I read that the "starter toner cartridg...

DO NOT BUY A CANON PRODUCT
Buyer Beware, Cannon Corporation absolutely, NO HELP! I received a NEW Cannon D 480 Copier today!! The box was undamaged, but the toner cartridge was cracked and leaking! I reported this to Cannon today, and they said, "Send it back to Amazon!" We replied, "This is absurd, send us a new cartridge! They said, "NO, you send us your proof of purchase, and THE CRACKED CARTRIDGE, they refused to pay shipping to return the cartridge. We spoke with four people along with emails to a supervisor. ...

Terrific Networkable MultiFunction Printer
My scanner & laser printer wouldn't work with my new Windows Vista 64-bit operating system. I loved my laser printer because the toner seemed to last a very long time compared to my photo printer. So I looked for a laser multifunction. Canon is rated best in most printer reviews. But I also wanted one that was networkable so that I could print from my laptop without having to turn on my desktop computer.
Well, I've had the D480 over 2 months and I really like it. It's like having an ...

Overall very good
I have owned this printer for about a week. I bought a Brother MFC7840W which for various reasons I returned, and I will explain all of that below.
First, the things I like about this printer.
- It is quiet. The Brother had a very loud fan which ran just about all the time. I do not even think the Canon has a fan. It has a hibernate mode which pulls 3 watts of electricity, which is quite good. By default it goes into sleep mode in 5 minutes.
- The Brother dimmed the l...

Great printer, modest networking
If you do significant network scanning this is not the model for you. If not, this unit is great. The D480 brings office quality copying to the home environment. Solidly built with good copy features, it works fast performs well. Works in Windows 7 and prints fast in network mode.
Network scanning is a weakness because the Canon software does not install a scanner driver and does not fully do the job. Plus, the manual is perplexing. You need additional software (but one such prod...

Scan on network is an issue.
First this printer as printer and copier is perfect right out of the box.
Scanning is an issue if you use it on network. You have to use USB cable if want to use scanner uninterruptedly.
Here is the issue I had with the scanner. I setup this All-in one copier on network, very easy to setup over the network use for printer.
I installed the scanner software, which the manual is not clear I will get back to it later.
I scanned first page over the network using the scanning software with no probl...

Great little printer
Pros:
- Small. (Considering what it can do)

Cons:

- Automatic duplexing does not work with a Legal size paper.
- Network admin password can only be numbers
I got this printer...
