Ian. I have owned an i3000 Pixima for some years. Its not dead but I tired keeping ink up to it. Have a colour laser now.
The one TIP I will give you is dont think about using anything other than the canon ink when its time to replace a cartridge. I had no end of trouble trying different 3rd party ink. It was a disaster the main problem being one of the colours would end up leaching into one of the others and so some psycodelic printing happened. I never find out why but this problem occurred with at least 3 different types of 3rd party ink but NEVER with canon ink.
I think an extraordinary amount of ink gets wasted in the cleaning processes that inkjets go thru virtually everytime you start them up too.
That all said, when the inks werent mixed I had great results from the Canon.
