    I've long been a Canon printer fan, and this one does not disappoint. I had a similar one that I purchased last year by mistake not realizing it didn't have the ADF and missed the ADF. This GX6021 does have the ADF and it is fast and scans really well. The print on this is fast too. The ink tanks last a very long time. Very pleased with this product for my small office.

    This is a great printer. The instructions were easy to follow. Setup was easy and the use of this printer in the house is great. Anyone can connect to it and print from their phone or their computer, what a great idea to have ink tanks that are refillable.

    We purchased an Epson Ink Tank printer but found the screen was too small and the push button controls confusing. We gave it to our son. Doing some research the Cannon seemed to be strong where the Epson was weak. And it is. The scream and controls are clear and easy to understand. The paper feeder is also far more reliable. Only downside is it takes time to “wake up” and print. Fix that and my review goes to 5 Stars plus! I should also share that before the Epson we had a HP inkjet. I have sworn by their products for years but the last one was totally unreliable.

    I do plenty of printing at my work from home office & need high quality legal document prints which the Maxify GX6021 printer provides. It is very easy to set up, comes with a large amount of ink: 6,000 Black / 14,000 Color pages per full ink bottle & offers outstanding print quality for photos and documents with fast print time. This printer is an excellent choice for the work at home/small business folks. Negatives: No faxing capability (not a deal breaker for me since I rarely use this) The colored ink covers that you pull up to replace ink are on the flimsy side. Setup was a better experience than my prior printers you have a choice to follow paper instructions or touch-screen display. Both are easy to follow & software automatically updates drivers & connect to your WIFI network, I ran into no issues. The very capable & compact printer uses bottles of ink poured into tanks in the printer instead of cartridges, this approach gives you a cost per page of less than 2 cents for printing in either black or color. A far greater long-term savings than with cartridges. Overall build quality of device is good except for the previous mentioned ink covers over the refill tanks. Bottomline this is great compact printer for a small office that reliably turns out nice-looking prints.

    Canon MAXIFY AIO Printer a Standout in its Field

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Canon MAXIFY GX6021 wireless AIO (All In One) Inkjet Printer is full of pleasant surprises both homes and small offices. This is Canon’s newest entry in the MegaTank category that is also popular with other major inkjet printer makers. Its heritage and pedigree, and now its specs and performance aim to reclaim Canon’s glorious recent past in the highly competitive inkjet printer space. Canon engineers and product designers have been working overtime! From the product box and the manner in which the printer is packed in a sturdy, reusable bag with handles for easy lift-out to the smart product features at every turn, this multifunction printer is something to behold. Here are just some of the product highlights according to Canon - The MAXIFY GX6021 is the newest upgrade to the company’s MAXIFY line that prints, copies and scans, sporting a 50-page ADF and enough pigmented ink in the box for a full fill of black, cyan, magenta and yellow in each reservoir. Canon’s pigmented ink promises the best performance when compared to other makers’ non-pigmented inks. Each bottle is keyed to the matching color and unique shape of the opening to assure mistake-proof ink loading. Canon’s pigmented ink is resistant to highlighters and is said to produce sharp text and documents. Print up to 6,000 Black/14,000 Color pages with a single set of inks. Automatic duplex printing and scanning from the printer software using computer or mobile device. Reduction and enlargement. Connectivity can be Wi-Fi, direct USB or Ethernet on the local network. This versatility is not common on all competitors’ models at this category. The front-loading pull-out paper tray can hold up to 250 sheets of 8-1/2 x 11 paper as well as European sizes. A vertically-oriented rear tray is available to hold up to an additional 100 sheets of paper. The rear tray is also handy for photo paper and other thick papers. Individual pages can be scanned and copied from the platen. An adjustable, front-facing 2.7-inch color LCD touch screen displays all the settings and remaining ink. Mobile printing is achieved through the free CanonPRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app for iOS and Android phones. Apple AirPrint is supported. A printer driver is available for Linux computers. Print speeds are said to be up to 24 ipm (Inches Per Minute) Black and 15.5 ipm color. This is an Energy Star partner printer, consuming very little electricity in all modes. A USB port on the front of the printer may be used for direct printing from a USB stick. Optical resolution is up to 1200 x 1200 dpi. This is more than enough for general use. Printing text documents at 300 dpi produces very good results. Even photo printing at 600 dpi usually yields excellent results. Remember, this is not a dedicated photo printer. The printer works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. MAXIFY printers are designed with a replaceable Maintenance Cartridge as well as replaceable Print Heads. The former is of particular note and interest. All inkjet printers occasionally, automatically perform a maintenance procedure whereby some ink is expressed through the heads in order to keep them from becoming dry or clogged, which can lead to inaccurate printing. Perhaps you have heard the sound of this as it occurs on other inkjet printers. They all do it. That ink has to go somewhere! Other printer makers of which I am aware spritz the ink onto a pad, often called a “diaper” in an area below the print heads. The pad can become super saturated and can even leak, making a mess of the mechanism that is nearly impossible to clean. Canon engineers designed their maintenance cycle to move the print heads to one side and over the Maintenance Cartridge. All the ink is held in the replaceable cartridge so there will be no mess. Cartridge replacement is at a very low cost and is easily removed, and the user is alerted when replacement is needed. From the same company that brought us so many industry-leading film, digital & video cameras & lenses, camcorders, scanners, projectors, healthcare products, binoculars, professional and large format printers and more, Canon’s worldwide product design and manufacturing excellence is on display here. For consumers in need of the addition of fax capability, look to the MAXIFY GX7021. Both models share the same small desktop length and width footprint. **WHAT’S IN THE BOX** • Canon MAXIFY GX6021, power cord • Full set of Canon pigmented ink • Documentation **THE SETUP** Carefully pore over the paperwork for the best possible user experience! Start with the included Getting Started pamphlet. Use the QR codes that lead to more in-depth setup and how-to instruction. Install software from the Canon Website. Load the ink. Load some paper. Download and install the app. Set up Wi-Fi. Print a test page with automatic printhead adjustment. And now, it’s time to . . . **PUT IT TO THE TEST** I always begin evaluating print quality with plain inkjet paper and plain copy paper. They are not the same! In most instances, including here, print quality is better with the slightly heavier inkjet paper. The brand is not so important. Print a document, a plain old black & white document created in the word processor of choice. Print in draft mode and then in increasingly higher quality settings to see the differences. THIS IS NOT A SPEEDY PRINTER. As with ALL inkjet printers at this end of the business, print speed is a factor of the power of the host computer that makes the source material ready to print. Other factors include the selected print quality, the speed of the wireless network, if printing is wireless, and the complexity of that which is to be printed. In my experience, speed is relative and the print speed of THIS printer is “normal.” Do not buy an inkjet printer if fast printing at high quality is a requirement. Disappointment is assured! There are better ways to achieve fast, high-quality color document printing, but it is costly. I did not test with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Print a colorful page, perhaps from a briefing slide or familiar website that has some color on it. Be sure the computer monitor has been calibrated for accuracy. Check. If photo paper is available, print a familiar photo, or two or three. Printing 8x10 photos at high quality is very slow, but the results are worth the wait for occasional use. I would not recommend photo printing on a regular basis. It takes too long and uses a lot of ink. **PRO TIP** A better solution is to upload images, whether scanned or from a camera, to an account at a big box store or national brand pharmacy offering photo printing services. There, photos can be printed using the same process as if printing from film, in all the popular sizes, in a variety of photo finishes, for much less than the cost of printing on ANY inkjet printer. Most stores can ship photos to you if the location is inconvenient for pickup. I printed 4x6 and 8x10 photos at 600 dpi from high quality digital camera photos. Looks good! I printed from a USB stick. Document printing. Check. Note the sound while printing. Is it loud? No, it is not! Print using the mobile app from iOS. Check. Duplex and simplex scanning from the ADF and single document scanning from the platen. Check. Though many parts are plastic, the fit and finish are excellent and the printer has the feel of high quality. Not a lightweight at about 26 pounds, it feels solid and substantial. I like that it doesn’t walk about while printing as lightweight printers may tend to do. This Canon MAXIFY GX6021 passes my VALUE test with flying colors answering the question as to whether it is worth the cost. Supplies are not exorbitantly priced and generic, so-called “compatible” ink is available priced even more reasonably. **CONCLUSION** No complaints. Only praise. Highly recommended. Perfect? Hardly, but . . . for what it does and in consideration of the VALUE equation test, choosing this Canon AIO is sure to please. **WARRANTY** Manufacturer’s 3-YEAR or 80,000 PAGES LIMITED WARRANTY

    Mega Tank Ink is a Game Changer for InkJets

    KEY FEATURES 50 Sheet Auto Document Feeder 250 Sheet Paper Tray Canon claims up to 6,000 Pages B&W / 14,000 Pages Color on Ink 3 Year / 80,000 Sheet Warranty 45,000 Sheets per Month Print Capacity INITIAL SET-UP The Canon GX6021 was relatively simple to set up and start to use. Someone with an existing Canon printer will find the set-up process familiar, but those coming from another brand of printer will find the set-up process archaic. Luckily, Canon includes a QR code on the box and in the instruction manual to help new users through the process. Not that getting the GX6021 going is a chore, but compared to the HP Smart App or the Epson app, the Canon app feels like it was lifted directly from the Windows 95 days and teleported to 2022. Canon, it is time for a major overhaul of your software. Not only that, between Windows, Mac, and Mobile, there is a total of 9 apps for the printer. Come on Canon. You can do better. After removing the packing material and shipping tape, I plugged the Canon in and began to get it set up directly from the built-in touchscreen. After, being thoroughly disappointed by the Canon apps, I had little hopes for the UI of the printer. I hate having to refer to directions for setting up new tech and I did not have to with the Canon, only because I have experience with their products. A new user may find it frustrating. Luckily, the device’s 2.7” touch screen did a thorough enough job to get me through the whole process. It was cumbersome, but it worked. Canon has an excellent ink fill / refill system. Not only do they provide you with the color and color code for each ink on the reservoir, but the ink bottles are also keyed to where they will only fit in their appropriate slot. Very slick and a great idea to keep from inadvertently mixing the ink in the wells. USE This printer is first and foremost a business-class printer. A buyer needs to understand that it is made for durability and sustainability in mind. I would not consider this a multi-purpose photo / business printer. While it does print well, it’s overall print resolution is just average for this day and age and would not be a suitable candidate as a photo printer. With that caveat being said, the GX6021 is a worthy companion to a home or home office environment. Canon rates the capacity of the GX6021 up to a whopping 45,000 printed pages per month. That is a huge amount. This printer is a welcome and much appreciated improvement to my existing Canon MB5320. The MB has served as my workhorse for many years. It has been robust and reliable, never failing to do what was needed (unless I forgot and ran out of ink). The GX6021 is an improvement in the older MB in almost every way. The user interface is much more refined and responsive. I consider a touchscreen display nearly mandatory these days. It is great to be able to load documents into the scanner and have them scanned to your PC without having to make trip after trip between computer and printer. While my older MB worked well, it would take it, what seemed like forever to start printing, especially if switching between computers. It would take 1 – 2 minutes of thinking and processing to finally start printing. The GX, takes only 10 seconds or so. A huge improvement and time saver. Printing is clean and crisp with little to no bleeding. This printer will throw down some ink on standard and high print quality. If you use anything but economy for printing, I highly recommend buying a better / heavier quality of paper than the cheapest stuff you can get at Office Max or Wal-Mart as the ink really gets saturated into the cheap paper. Economy printing is no issue. Any of the cheap stuff will do. But that is also a benefit. Economy printing is plenty dark and detailed enough for my liking and saves ink in the process. Economy printing on the GX no longer feels like and looks like your machine is running out of supplies. The scanner is one of the best I’ve used, even better than my Epson. Pages are sucked through the ADF and scanned without drama. All my scans have been straight, clean, and true. Something that I can’t say about my Epson 580 scanner, where every sheet seems to be a little crooked. The scanner has an optical resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi for extremely crisp scans. However, even scans as low as 200dpi still turn out clean and legible, with almost no hint that you scanned at a low resolution. Excellent work Canon. I’m not sure if it’s your software doing the compensation or the scanner itself, but it works and works well. NEGATIVES 1. I can’t get the GX to play nicely with Microsoft Edge. Everything I’ve tried to print from within the browser fails. I’m not sure if it is a Canon issue or a Microsoft issue, but it is an issue and it is frustrating. Thankfully, I have had no similar hiccups with either Chrome or Firefox. But, to this day, Edge is a no-go. 2. Compared to my older MB5320, this GX does feel less robust. Not significantly less, but it does feel more cheaply made. To be fair, the MB5320 felt like a tank and had a heft to go along with it. But to be fair to Canon, compared to my HP OfficeJet Pro 8035, the GX6021 feels like a tank. The HP is the cheapest feeling and flimsiest printer I’ve ever tried to use in my office. Good riddance. 3. While the GX6021 does produce good looking prints and razer sharp text, it is relatively low resolution at only 1200 x 600dpi. That is one of the lowest resolution inkjet printers I’ve seen in a long time. Low enough, that you can’t even scan an image and print it at the same resolution as the scan. That seems like a mistake. To be a true multi-function printer, I think the Canon needs a higher resolution print head. CONCLUSIONS Epson turned the inkjet world upside down when they introduced their EcoTank printers a few years ago. It really was revolutionary. I remember watching a video where someone compared the price of printer ink per ounce to price the of gold per ounce and printer ink was WAY more expensive. Having a Canon MegaTank printer is a game changer for the consumer or small business owner. The days of needing an expensive laser printer to support a business are over. The Canon GX6021 provides the ease of use and reliability of an inkjet with the capacity of a laser. Ink is now affordable and lasts much longer than a hundred or so pages you get with cartridges. Canon gives you enough ink that they claim up to 6,000 pages B&W and up to 14,000 pages in color. That is revolutionary in the inkjet world. Canon even included the ability to replace the print heads separate from the ink and printer should they get worn out with continued use. Canon has a full line of apps that a person can use to never be out of touch with their printer. The ability to print remotely, from the cloud, etc is great. This is by no means a Canon thing, others have been doing it for years, it is a must have feature for business owners. While it works, it is much more cumbersome with the Canon than with Canon’s competitors. While the initial investment cost of a MegaTank printer is more than that of a regular inkjet printer, the payback is quick. The savings in ink alone, is a game changer for anyone running a small business or prints in any volume. There is no more worry of running out of ink during a print job. There is no need to buy remanufactured ink cartridges because the genuine ones are SOOOOOO expensive. There are no more messy toner cartridges of a laser printer to deal with. The Canon GX6021 MegaTank printer is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

    Good purchase with a couple of small annoyances

    The good: Print quality is good. Setup was easy. Ink costs will be lower than my HP8600. Takes up less space. The annoying: Printer powers down on its own after a certain amount of time rather than going to sleep. This will probably save electricity, but also often results in print errors because the computer can't find the printer until it has been manually powered up again. This is more of a pain for family members who are printing from other computers in the house and have to go to the home office to turn the printer on. Also, the delay from the time I hit print on the computer and the time the doc starts printing seems longer than it did with the HP 8600 that was replaced. Overall I am happy with the purchase, but I am having to adjust my processes a bit and get used to the way the new unit works after many years with the prior printer.

    Solid and Functional All-In-One Printer

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We were in need of a solid and reliable printer for our home. We were looking at a laser printer originally, but decided to take a chance on the GX6021 inkjet and so far we're really happy with it. It nails all the basics of printing and scanning and hasn't given us any problems. The print quality is excellent and with the ink that is included we shouldn’t need to replace that for a long time. Initially setting up the printer felt a little daunting, but ended up being pretty simple. The LCD display gives a step-by-step guide on where to remove all of the tapes and plastic tabs. There’s a set of black and color ink included in the box that I was initially concerned about making a mess of or putting it in the wrong tanks, but the bottles are all keyed to their respective tanks and the ink does not come out until it is fully seated on top of the ink reservoir. I chose not to connect the printer to the network via Wi-Fi but instead hard wired it to my router and either option is available on the GX6021. It can also be connected to a PC via USB, but no USB cable is included in the box. I know that Canon offers a variety of apps and software for this printer, but for my needs I am not utilizing any of them. I’ve been able to print and scan from multiple devices (phone, PC, and Mac) without any issues or having to install additional software. I'm mainly using 8.5 x 11 letter, but the bottom cassette also accepts 8.5 x 14 legal and is compatible with a variety of other sizes standard and custom. The print quality on standard 8.5 x 11 paper is excellent and the ink does not smudge. I love it as a design choice, but functionally being able to actually observe the ink levels on the front of the printer is fantastic. Navigating the menus on the LCD is intuitive and did not have a big learning curve. Overall I'm very happy with the GX6021 printer. I've only had it for about a month or so, but it's been extremely reliable during that time and I'd recommend it to anyone who has a little bit more than the basic printing needs and wants a high quality all-in-one device.

    Solid printer with reasonable ink cost

    I like this printer. The build quality is solid and attractive. It’s a little taller but also narrower than similar letter-size all-in-ones. The installation was easy and without any problems. It comes with a massive amount of ink which is one of its major features, and thus the name “Maxify”. Rather than cartridges, this printer comes with four bottles of ink. There’s about 4.5 oz of each color and over 5.5 oz of black. The printer holds a full bottle of each, and the bottles are keyed making it impossible to dump ink into the wrong tank. Filling the printer was clean and without any fuss or mess. Well thought out, Canon. The inks are pigment-based making them nearly waterproof, and of course, Canon quality. This also makes for great color prints. Typical of Canon printers, even though it’s not a “Photo Printer”, it still produces great color prints on photo paper. This system is at the other end of the spectrum from high-priced, branded cartridges with proprietary chips, and/or subscription ink programs. You might pay a bit more for the machine, but the reward is a very reasonable price for quality ink. If you want high quality with low throughput cost, this is a solid choice. A side benefit is that the Canon software is much less intrusive and trouble-free than those which require your printer to always be connected to the internet so they can constantly call home to report usage. As mentioned, this is a multi-function printer/copier/scanner with a multi-page document feeder. Copying, scanning, and printing all support duplexing. It will reduce or enlarge and print multiple pages to one. There’s a fold-out manual feed slot on the back which is a feature missing from many printers these days. If you want to print an envelope, photo, or any different size or type of paper, this makes life much easier. So far there’s nothing not to like about this printer. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality printer. The low throughput cost is going to shine if you have a high printing volume.

    Canon Maxify MegaTank GX6021 is a Winner!!!

    Coming from an Epson EcoTank printer, the Canon Maxify MegaTank GX6021 printer is much, much better in my opinion. It is faster, quieter and it prints exceptionally well in color as well as in black and white. I am still reading all the features it has and I am beyond happy with it. The only thing this printer doesn't have is auto scanning but I already knew this before purchasing it so it doesn't really bother me. Also, I've read reviews that this printer auto turns off and that it doesn't wake up during a print job. While it is set up that way from the factory, you need to go to the Power Settings to make the appropriate adjustments. All and all, it's a beautiful printer that hopefully will give you many years of enjoyment. If the fact that it doesn't have auto scanning doesn't bother you, I would say go for it and purchase this printer. You'll be glad you did as I am!! I Highly recommend it!!!

    Printer has tank ink feature with pigment ink for higher quality printing. Letters and graphics look great. Lots of features and easy to use. Canon support website has a WiFi assistant download that makes Mac AirPrint easier to set up and our Mac computers recognized the printer without issue. Quiet operation and reasonably fast. Canon builds a good product and hopefully this one will last along time.

    Canon Turns Printing Into an Affordable Pleasure

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The Canon MAXIFY MegaTank GX6021 offers beautiful color and black & white printing at the lowest cost per page - as much as 80% lower than high-yield laser cartridges! Printing at a cost of less than 2 cents-per-page relieves stress from printing cost & frequently running out of high-priced ink worries. The MAXIFY GX6021 employs a 4-Color Pigment Ink System, producing crisp color & black & white printing. The "Mega Tanks" included with this machine print up to 6,000 Black & 14,000 Color pages! I was concerned about spilling ink as I poured these 4) cartridges into the printer. Not to worry! The nozzles are built in such a way where the ink container must make full contact with the printer to release the ink, making it virtually impossible to leak or spill even a drop of ink. More Canon Quality! There are 2) places to load paper in this printer: the bottom tray holds up to 250 sheets of paper & the rear compartment holds 100 sheets. This high capacity is appropriate, since it prints at high speed: up to 24 Impressions per minute black & 15.5 Impressions per minute color. The touch-sensitive color display is crisp & clear & gives you full control of options without a computer. The only issue I found with this printer is: by default, it shuts itself off after several hours of non-use. When shut off, it no longer receives WiFi print commands without going to the printer & pressing the Power On button. To eliminate this inconvenience, select Menu on the display, choose Device Settings: ECO: Turn Auto Power OFF. CONCLUSION: The Canon MAXIFY GX6021 offers fantastic quality printing at the lowest cost & is a premium quality-built machine. It earns my highest recommendation.

    I purchased this printer when my previous Canon printer broke and needed a printer urgently. Unhappy with the ridiculous price of ink cartridges I took a gamble on this tank model hoping the theory about paying more up front and less for ink over time will work. After about 2 months of use, so far so good. It wasn't difficult to set up and install (an online video helped) and it seems to print, copy and scan as well as I hoped for day to day use. One benefit is with the ink tanks, I'm less afraid of actually using the printer. On my previous Canon Pixma it seemed like printing only a few photos and documents would bleed the cartridges dry so I was very cautious and paranoid about using it--not so with this tank model. It's a relief in that regard. Comparing photo printing quality of this 4 color Canon to my previous 5 color unit, the older unit was just slightly better with more pleasing color and texture on close review. At arm's length the differences are negligible. Overall I'm pleased with the new printer and I think over time the initial investment should payoff.

    I've used AIO printers from a number of manufacturers over the years, but this is my first MegaTank printer. I've definitely had some issues in the past with "non-confirming" cartridges and manufacturers that want to control where your ink is purchased. Canon's new MAXIFY MegaTank GX6021 Wireless All-In-One does away with those types of issues. The printer utilizes tank technology and gets away from replacing cartridges. For me, this is a win-win as the printer boasts 6K-9K black & white pages and 14K-21K color pages and no need to worry about trying to recycle or landfill the old cartridges. Unboxing - The printer is really well made and Canon quality shines throughout. Included in the box is the printer, power cord, 4 x ink bottles and instruction material. The printer was well packaged and easy to unbox and get ready for setup. Setup - Canon has done a great job of providing an easy setup process whether the unit is being run via ethernet or WiFi. My printer is setup on a Mac and was easy to install by selecting "add new printer" in System Preferences. Within minutes it was connected and printing via WiFi. I also downloaded the Canon PRINT app on my iPhone 13 Pro and setup AirPrint as well. This is an important aspect for me as much of my work is done on Apple mobile devices and the ability to print from or scan to these devices is essential. Filling the printer with the supplied ink was also very easy. The bottles are key coded so you can't put the wrong color into the printer. It's as simple as picking the color ink, lining it up with the proper tank and connecting the bottle to fill. No spills, no mess! Print Quality - My usage is primarily for home office use for real estate so I need the ability to print on legal/letter paper and also print color flyers and marketing material. The Canon MAXIFY GX6021 checks these boxes and supports up to 350 sheets of paper. Black & White printing is super quick and the output far exceeds my needs/expectations. Although this isn't a picture printer, the output quality on photo paper was pretty impressive as well for an "office" AIO. Features - The GX6021 will print up to 1200 x 600 DPI, has a 2.7" LCD touch control panel, supports WiFi and mobile printing/scanning and supports USB flash drive printing/scanning. Pros: - Easy to setup and operate - High paper/output yield due to MegaTank use - Great build quality and 3 year / 80K page warranty - Support for AirPrint and other mobile devices and apps - Print speed and output quality is superb - 2.7" touch LCD for operation - low operating cost based on output capacities Cons - Initial cost of ownership on the higher side, but will even out over years of usage All-in-all the Canon MAXIFY GX6021 AIO printer is a great solution for a small office or home office environment. It's easy to set up and operate and will help to reduce printing costs over time with the use of MegaTank technology. If you're in the market for this type of printer I would certainly recommend this unit!

    I’ve had this printer for just a couple of weeks now, and what a surprise! This printer is excellent - fast, easy to set up, works seamlessly with all of our devices. I’ve had several HP printers, and I got tired of them failing - once something is wrong, it’s all over with an HP - never again. The ink tanks on this unit is such a good idea - easily filled and will last a long time for us. I’m very pleased, especially with the great price I received at BestBuy.

    I'm absolutely in love with my new printer. I'm a crafter and do all of my printing in the evening while we watch TV. This printer is so quiet you hardly know its printing...and its right on a shelf...in the same room. The print quality is excellent as well. I give this printer 5 stars on Value, Quality and ease of use.

    It prints quickly and does a decent job, but it is not the printer you want if you’re trying to print photographs, there are cheaper printers with higher quality if that’s what you’re gonna do with it

    Finally no more catridges! Easy to use. Wish the screen was bigger. Downloading and setting up the software especially for multiple users was a challenge. Smaller footprint than my HP.

    Easy to setup. Print quality is great. After a dead on arrival purchased HP printer; I switched over to a Canon printer and now will never go back to HP. This is my first ink tank and look forward to not having to endlessly replace the ink cartridges.
