Great Printer-Never Going Back to Cartridges Again-Fast, Super Cheap w/ Ink (refills too)- Love It
So after having Canon printers from way back in 2003 for a few years and getting excellent results and pictures (using the Canon high gloss photo paper back then) i switched to Epson when it died a few years ago. The Epson WF 4730 and most recently when that died the WF4740 (which also just died) I decided to go back to Canon again. I REALLY like the Megatank system. This printer has a pretty small footprint too as far as it’s size compared to the Epson we just replaced. It seems like it will be a lot more efficient on ink and the replacement bottles are really reasonable (on Amazon colors are only $11/each and slightly more for the black ink which is a larger bottle). The text prints fast and the colors are spot on. Haven’t tried pictures yet but will update my review when I do try printing them. The only gripe I have with this printer are a couple of things. First, the LCD screen is small and doesn’t light up making it basically useless. But, I have learned after having a few printers over the years I never use the bloatware by the printer company anymore. I use the print application on my Imac or Windows computer. Much faster to access and works better with less headaches. And, second, the operating panel which folds out HAS to be open when printing. This is good and bad at the same time. Annoying if you are in another room and want to print and forget to fold out the panel first (panel can be left forward position to print always or just pop it out when you want to print something. The good thing about the panel having to be open is if I leave the printer cover on the printer and someone wants to print from another room (and they haven’t opened the control panel first) the printer won’t print and jam up papers because the printer cover is on. Scanning so far works great on this All In One. Haven’t tried faxing yet and basically….who needs to fax anymore anyway. I scan and email any document. I can tell you even though Epson has their own tank version of printers (Ecotank) I am done with Epson for awhile. Best thing about Epson was the speed of print….that was it as far as superiority. The Canon so far has been a great machine. By the way, using the computer to print rather than the bloatware supplied by either Canon or Epson is not only fast to use but a lot easier when setting the printer up. So, after only owning this printer for less than 2 weeks (but we have used it quite a bit as my wife and I are both working at home during the Coronavirus quarantine) I can say that I would highly recommend this AIO to anyone looking for a great, fast and do all printer that is efficient on ink as well. I used to HATE running out and having to run to Office Depot or ordering online for ink only to have to spend about $38 for a small color ink cartridge for the Epson. The whole kit of 3 colors with black was about $125…crazy expensive. This computer comes with 3 colored ink bottles (enough to fill each of the 3 colors once) and 3 slightly larger black bottles (one fills it up and 2 extra bottles are included). I read all the reviews on Consumer Reports online as I subscribe and a lot of them pointed to the lower priced models by Brother or HP. The problem with the Brother printer they recommend (while easy on using the ink) was that the reviews stated that color printed papers came out very dull and light on color. Thus the “efficiency” of using ink on a Brother. Not like that with this Canon at all. Colors are superb on regular bright white paper. You definitely get what you pay for here. A top of the line refillable tank AIO printer that does everything very well….including saving money on ink (and the convenience of storing extra bottles to refill when needed). Spend a little more now on a great Canon G7020 but save in the long run. Hope this helps anyone who is on the fence about which printer to buy. I know even with having the Consumer Reports information online to view I spent a few hours doing research on the all around best printer. Oh, and also the print heads (2…one for colors and one for B&W) pop in easy when setting up and that means replacing if ever needed should be easy. Hopefully I won’t have to for a very long time though. Just buy this printer…..I can’t imagine you’ll regret it. I also purchased a NON Canon product that I would recommend as well. The semi-clear printer cover by Comp Bind is great. Made for this printer it keeps dust and anything else out of the printer when not in use. I truly believe using a cover extends the life of your printer too.

Great Printer!
After decades of buying only HP printers, I got frustrated. My HP All-in-one wouldn’t work with non-HP cartridges and wouldn’t work when I filled the old HP cartridges. The replacement cartridge from HP were almost half the original printer cost. So, I thought I’d give Canon a try and so far I’ve been very pleased.The printer was easy to set up. I connected it to my network with an ethernet cable so I didn’t have to deal with Wi-Fi password. One of my two small complaints about the printer is that the screen is a small LCD display that isn’t backlit; kind of like the HP LaserJet control panel. I have a reading light on my desk and I have to point it at the panel to read it. Having said that, once it’s set up, there’s not much need to see it.My other complaint is the appearance of the printer control software. The HP software has large lettering and icons in the selection process. The Canon software is strictly small text. I don’t see well, so this effects me more than most. But the software functions fine and you can accomplish all of the necessary printing and scanning tasks.I’m a little disappointed that I can’t FAX using my cell phone. We abandoned our land line long ago. But I don’t know of any printer software that uses cell phones for FAX, so it’s a mild disappointment.I loaded printer software for my wife’s I-pad that worked well. Never had much luck with remote printing for the HP. Was able to scan a document to her I-pad, mark it up with an Apple pencil, and print it to the G7020.This printer comes with a large ink supply to fill the tanks, as well as two additional bottles of black ink. That’s enough black for like 20,000 pages. I’m retired and don’t print a lot so that’s probably a lifetime supply for me. And even if I do run out, replacement ink is about $30.I’ve only had the printer a week, so I can’t speak to it’s durability, but the construction seems similar to HP. Canon actually manufactures a number of the HP print engines, so I’m not expecting any problems there.Bottom line, this is a great all-in-one and I’m really happy with my purchase.
