I had read so a and found it a bit strange, but he was able to live as the no-name cartridges were favorable and thus the higher consumption did not matter.
But the now implemented constant and absurd cleaning interval defies description.
For several minutes before the printer a single page to clean then turning off again for several minutes to clean ... So I ask myself: Canon, what are you doing?
My concern is not primarily concerned with the color that is wasted here, but my time and nerves which one loses fast times. Sometimes fast print a page is not.

The HP from that time I had recently was a normal printer how to "before" know him by. Normal to use. Unfortunately, here the printer driver was seriously lacking equipped.
So I can only advise against this unit.
Otherwise, I do not from a performance point nothing really special noticed what would make this huge mistake might compensate.
