One of the main feature I look in a printer is "if it will print black ink even when the color inks are out" and this one DOES NOT. FYI
The starter ink on this runs out quick.

Cheap generics can be found on ebay.
Zero issues with this brand of remanufactured cartridges with this same printer

Was looking for a printer, mx922 is the second Canon to have a printhead failure.

How does this compare? The generic inks seem more expensive than the mx922 inks.

What are the differences between the 460, 480, and 485 models, they looks the same

I had same situation. I purchased 480 at OD, due to my MX922 gone long.
480 and 485 are same. The difference is the retail channel.
I do not know about 460/nod

FYI, in my opinion, Brother support is not good at all. Unsolicited black line is scanned in certain situation, but it may not be a big problem.vomit

I believe you can tape the empty cartridges to trick it

I have this printer, 2 years, and I drilled a hole in each ink cartridge and use a syringe to refill the ink.

Never paid for a cartridge and it works great. I only buy Brothers for this very reason. Also, it self cleans so I never have dry ink issues.

It also prints duplex, which I think is a minimum requirement for printers nowadays.
