Does this machine make full color copies?

Hello, the Canon PC 430 does NOT make full color copies - only black and white,Otherwise this is a very good copy machine. Hope that helps.

Hello, yes, the printer can print both in color and in black and white. Hope this helps. Thanks

Yes, it will scan in color. It will save in either jpeg or pdf format. Don't know what you want to do with it in OCR.

Yes - but I cannot tell you how many prints I got. Two things - when one of the colors ran out the printer was not responsive even in black and white - bought the new color cartridge and all was fine again. Two - the cost of a new set of cartridges - longer lasting one (2000 copies black and 1400 color) cost nearly as much as the printer and original cartridges. It is a ripoff, but all the copier companies do the same thing (I previously had HP) Hope this helps.

No, it is black and white only. It does scan in color however. I. Highly recommend this printer, it is packed with features & bonus software. Go ahead and get a toner cartridge, as the one that comes with the printer only does about 500 pages.

Yes, but you have to specifically select "Gray scale" in the printer properties. The default behavior is to not print when a cartridge is empty. So when my color cartridges went out I just switched to gray scale to continue printing and I have no plans of replacing the color cartridges.

Pretty sure you still have to buy the color cartridges and install so the machine responds, but as another post said, just select black & white printing.

Not sure, I also print 99% of my plans in black & white. So my color cartridges that came with the printer are still full.

I suppose you are asking about high quality photos on photo paper. I haven't tried this, but suspect you need a much higher quality printer It does print in color. This printer is about as basic as you can get. It's fine for light home use, but not much more.

Yes. Under properties is a box for grayscale printing. This should render color documents in grayscale. Obviously if the document is not in color the printer prints black and white. It does have multiple settings. Be sure to do test prints prior to any large job.

Yellow traditionally does not show up with a copy machine. The other colors will likely show up faintly, but I haven't tried them.

Yes, it has various colors. Absolutely great machine. Haven't regretted the purchase for a single minute.

Yes ! However, I have had trouble getting the various shades of blue. Not sure if it is my printer, computer or the cartridges.

Yes it does! When I save the scanned document into a PDF version, it keeps all the color from the original document. I haven't printed directly to a color printer, so I don't know if the scanned document prints the original colors scanned...

Well, mine quit printing yellow completely when I tried a non-OEM cartridge, so I would say no. I am beyond disgusted with this machine. Not only will it not print yellow now, but even the black is messed up--sort of a purple color. My printer is now useless, and naturally I can't find any tech support that is worth anything. :( NOT happy.

No, it does not *automatically* print all spectrum of colors. If you want photo-quality, you will need to do a four-color printing process. Programs like Photoshop and Gimp will separate the colors and you would create a screen for each of the basic printing colors (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black). You would use each screen to print the next color. After all four colors are printed, you will have a photo-quality screen print.
