Giving away our pre loved printer and scanner - Canon
We are giving away our pre loved printer and scanner. Details below:
This compact multifunction printer with fax, ADF scanner and copier functions has served us well for many years.
Recently I had to replace the print-head which I had bought already about a year ago, but turned out to be faulty. The PGBK colour which is the big black colour does not print a sharp line in the middle part. All cleaning and troubleshooting attempts failed and every odd line of text looks blurry in Standard paper setting. If you change the paper setting to i.e. matte photo paper it prints normal but with a bit more ink involved.
We cannot be bothered now with it any-more as we got us a replacement printer already during the whole trouble shooting process.
So we are giving this one away for free as it is still fully usable otherwise and could be fixed completely in getting another print-head. Well I do not know if the Wifi connection works as I tried a couple of years ago and failed to get it to connect to our Wifi network. Works well with LAN or USB connections.
It comes with its original packaging and all parts, including a CD tray to print on printable Disc media. Also included are two sets of refillable cartridges that have saved us a lot of money.
It is still connected to our network to be viewed and inspected by any interested party.
Photos attached.
If you are interested, please let me know.
Thanks

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
