Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Canon Color imageRUNNER C2880 is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You're a small or mid-sized office of 5-20 people printing 2,000-6,000 pages a month with 20-40% color mix.
  • You need 11x17 and 12x18 — true A3 device for marketing collateral, blueprints, and oversized spreadsheets.
  • You use the optional 50-sheet DADF for multipage scanning to email, SMB, or FTP at 44 ipm @ 300 dpi.
  • You're inheriting a C2880 install and want to keep it running — GPR-23 toner is still widely aftermarket-available (it's the same toner as C2550/C3080/C3380/C3480).
  • You want MEAP for embedded business apps — eCopy, custom workflows, and access management kit are all supported.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 6,000-10,000 pages a month — within the 100,000/month duty cycle but you'll be replacing toner every 2-3 weeks at the high end.
  • You also need fax — Super G3 fax board (W2 single-line, J2 multi-line) is optional.
  • You want LCF capacity — Paper Deck-Z1 (2,700 sheets letter) plus Cassette Feeding Unit-Y3 (1,100 sheets) gets you to 4,950-sheet max.
  • You're moving to a newer model and want the C2880 as a backup — fine, but expect parts and on-site service availability to keep declining.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print more than 10,000 pages a month — get a current-generation imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5500-series.
  • You need wireless out of the box — Wi-Fi requires the optional NB-W1 adapter.
  • You need cloud scan destinations like SharePoint or OneDrive — this 2007-era platform supports SMB/FTP/email but not modern cloud connectors.
  • You need PCL or PostScript printing standard — both are optional kits (PCL Printer Kit-Q3 or PS Printer Kit-Q1). Standard is UFR II only.
  • You need ENERGY STAR best-in-class efficiency — this platform predates the current power management standards.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Canon Color imageRUNNER C2880 is an A3 color laser MFP from Canon's 2007-era imageRUNNER lineup, built for small and mid-sized offices of 5-20 people printing 2,000-6,000 pages a month with a 20-40% color mix. It runs the imageCHIP system architecture for simultaneous copy/print/scan/send/fax, with up to 1.5 GB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive.

Standard paper capacity is 1,100 sheets across two 550-sheet drawers plus a 50-sheet bypass; max with the 2,700-sheet Paper Deck-Z1 plus a second cassette pedestal is 4,950 sheets. Drawers handle 12x18, 11x17, legal, letter, and statement-R; bypass handles envelopes and custom 3-15/16 x 5-7/8 to 12-7/8 x 18 inches. Standard automatic trayless duplexing. Optional DADF-L1 (50-sheet) enables 44 ipm scan/copy at 300 dpi. Color Universal Send is standard with email, I-Fax, SMB, FTP, WebDAV, LDAP lookup, and inbox destinations. Connectivity is 10/100 Ethernet plus USB 2.0; Wi-Fi is optional via NB-W1. Footprint is 22.25 x 29.75 x 31.13 inches main unit, 256 lb. Toner is GPR-23 (BK 26K / CMY 14K yield) — same family as C2550/C3080/C3380/C3480, which keeps aftermarket pricing reasonable. Maximum monthly duty cycle is 100,000 pages. EOL platform — best for keeping an existing install running.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.
