Amazon.com Product Description
For exceptionally portable printing options, the Canon BJC-80 offers all you could ask for wrapped in one very sleek package. Advanced printing technologies smooth black edges and separate colors for supreme legibility and exquisitely clear images; print speeds of 4 ppm black and 2 ppm color are on the slow side, but the final results are worth the wait. A 760 x 300 dpi supplies dense, true coloration on envelopes, high-gloss film, photo paper, plain paper or transparencies, on any size sheet up to 8.5 by 14 inches.
Weighing just over three pounds, the black case snaps shut and can be tucked right in your laptop's carrying case. Additional optional accessories like the portable power pack or scanner kit will expand the BJC-80's capabilities to that of your home printer, while the included 30-sheet input tray allows you to keep media organized even while on the go. Canon includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

Owned BJC-80 since 1997 and still going!!!!.......2007-01-07
Just had to order a new cartridge holder for the color ink, but it is still going strong. I took it out of storage as I need it on the road. It's a great printer and light. I have backup battery. Can't use infared as current laptop does not have it. Would highly recommend it to anyone.
BJC-80 printer .......2007-01-05
i've been using one of these robust little printing contraptions, on again off again, in vanilla mode (black ink only and no batteries), for years. most BJC-80 probs are home fixable and are related to ink catridge and/or printhead drying; a Q-Tip, a little alcohol and test printing (for head cleaning purposes) usually saves the day. the black ink cartridges are relatively economical and they can be home refilled for more economy yet. the BJC-80 is the model-T of portable printers and it is very portable, indeed. a a good solution for hands on people who travel and need hard copy
Piece of Junk.......2006-12-02
As I read prior reviews I was amazed to find that they comment so positively on durability as my experience was exactly the opposite. Last year I purchased two of these and both stopped functioning within a month. In both cases was a mechanical problem where motor and drive mechanism which moved print head stopped functioning properly....would try to print but print head stayed stuck in start up position.
Like most people who travel enough to need a portable printer I am too busy to stay on hold for 20 minutes on help line or argue with someone at Staples why I no longer have box on something I want to return or exchange.
I would steer clear of this one....however for what little time it did work it does print very good quality. It is light, very compact and frankly I thought print speed was more than acceptable. Only problem was occasional jam on feed ....if it would actually work would be a fantastic piece of equipment.
African Missionary.......2006-11-28
This little portable, dual-voltage printer has lasted and lasted. I use it in Africa in our Bible training school and it has never let me down. It prints handouts, overhead transparencies and course completion certificates with ease and clarity. As far as carrying it in my suitcase on the plane, there's no problem because the lid closes and it makes a hard-shell case. My BJC-80 comes with a parallel port, but for $35.00 or so you can buy a cable that will adapt it to a USB port.
USED IT HARD FOR 3 YEARS AND CAN'T KILL IT. :).......2006-03-15
This is probably the most incredible & durable piece of electronic equiptment I've ever owned. It's like the Bunny in the battery commercials....keeps going...and going...and going.
I save on ink by buying bulk ink and refilling the black ink containers with a syring, rotating 3 of these. I have only had to replace the printer head 1 time. I have used the parallel cable for my connection, but will try the infrared with my new computer. Previously (3 years ago) , the infrared connection would not work...but likely due to new drivers, etc. Truly one TOUGH road warrier printer!

Designed for use with Canon BJ30 and BJC70 portable printers
Amazon.com Review
The Canon BJC-80 is a go-anywhere compact ink-jet printer that weighs just over 3 pounds. This handy little model produces nice quality output and is small enough to fit in your notebook case--with your notebook.
The BJC-80 prints at 720 x 360 dpi resolution and is rated at up to 4.5 ppm for black printing and 2 ppm with color. Despite the unit's tiny size, the case is well constructed, and all sensitive components are protected when the printer is folded up for traveling. The top cover flips up and backward to a 45-degree angle to act as the input tray; paper ejects from the front onto your desktop. This simple design is quite appropriate for a portable unit.
A small cover on the front of the printer flips down to allow access to the print cartridge. When you press the cartridge button, the cartridge moves to the center of the unit for removal. Separate color and black cartridges come with the printer. The color cartridge holds a tricolor ink tank rated at 80 pages at 5 percent coverage and a black-ink tank rated at 60 pages at 3.75 percent coverage. The black cartridge takes a higher-capacity black-ink tank rated at 170 pages at 5 percent coverage. These ink tanks run dry rather quickly, so you should keep spare ones handy.
For wireless printing from your notebook, the BJC-80 features a built in IrDA (infrared) port in addition to the standard parallel port. Canon offers a rechargeable nickel metal-hydride battery option that prints about 200 pages on each charge, as well as a scanning cartridge that turns the printer into a 360-dpi sheet-fed scanner.
We were impressed with the output quality of this diminutive ink jet. If you work on the road and need to do occasional printing, the BJC-80 can greatly simplify your life.
Pros:
- Compact portable design
- Built-in IrDA infrared interface
- Converts into sheet-fed scanner
Cons:
- Low-capacity ink cartridges
- Slow color printing performance

Amazon.com Product Description
The Canon BJC-80 features the latest Canon technology for portable performance without compromise. One feature is Drop Modulation Technology, which gives crisper black text and sharper, richer color at 720 x 360 dpi. You can even scan images and artwork on the road, because the BJC-80 can instantly become a high-quality color sheetfed scanner with the optional IS-12 Color Image Scanner Cartridge, a Canon exclusive. Your presentations and reports will look better than ever.
The BJC-80 can go anywhere you need to go with its compact, lightweight design. Using its standard IrDA interface, you can print from IrDA-equipped Windows 95 computers without a cable. You can even leave the power cord home--its optional rechargeable battery pack lets you print up to 200 pages.
Customer Reviews:
sales team loves them.......2001-08-01
I purchased 4 refurbished bjc-80 printers for our sales force. They love the ability to go onsite and print a contract while in front of the customer. When used with ink jet paper the output is great. Our reps are using these printers with the infrared port on their compaq laptops, which works great. Only problem is the infrared communications is a little slower than a printer cable, so it seems to slow the prining down 10 or 15%... all in all a excellent value that i recommend to anyone who needs a portable printer with excellent output and great portability.
A great buy for laptops.......2001-06-15
This is very useful when you are travelling out of the country with your laptop and need a printer.
