Works well but the screen is dissapointing
The printer works well using a USB cord, but the readout on the screen is so hard to read that even with a magnifying glass, (no, my eyesight isn’t that bad, the screen is that bad.) I couldn’t see well enough to set up the wireless operation. I would like to avoid hooking my laptop up with a USB whenever I want to print.On the plus side, if you don’t mind not using the wireless option, then this printer is compact, quiet, and very fast. Great option for someone who doesn’t need the flexibility of printing from multiple locations in your home or office.

Pain to set up, but works great now.
OK. I’m an old fart, set in my ways. Yes, I’m still using AOL and Windows 7 (It still does everything I need and want.) Have an older Canon Pixma color printer that works great. BUT. If I don’t use it every few days, when I turn it on, it takes 3 to 4 minutes playing with itself before I can start printing. I rarely print in color. A couple of times a year maybe. New Pixma color tanks only last about a year due to constant “cleaning?” of the print heads, even though I don’t need color printing. So I decided a Black and White Laser printer was what I needed. Thus the new Canon printer. Perfect for my needs.BUT. Set up on Windows 7 was not easy. (Windows 10 on a Laptop worked fine.) I almost gave up but decided to call Canon for help. The first lady kinda gave up after 45 minutes and I was about to return the printer since Windows 7 is my main computer, and I use it every day. As a last resort, I tried Canon Help again and got a guy more familiar with Win 7. He got it working after about 20 minutes. Great work guys.So now I have Pixma color when I need it. And Canon Laser B&W the majority of the time. Best of both worlds for me. Until I HAVE to replace the Win 7 computer…

Obsolete piece of useless junk
DO NOT BUY IT! This is horrible product. It has unreadable LCD screen. Regarding user unfriendliness I can repeat world by world the following review: â I wish I would have myself. The screen is terrible as stated many times in reviews and like others, I had to resort to using a flashlight to read the screen.The instructions are absolutely terrible, lacking any sort of intuitive flow or useful guidance, and this is coming from someone that provides tech support for a living. This is not a professional grade printer yet the instructions are written as if your office IT person is setting it up for you. That is to say ALL the information for the various configuration possibilities is vomited out in a psuedo-logical structure offering no useful way of piecing it together. You’re left wondering over and over again if you should be doing the myriad of configuration steps on offer. And forget doing any troubleshooting if you encounter an issue because the instructions offer nothing of substance.I followed the instructions to download and install the driver but for some reason, the driver installation wasn’t working. Next I tried using the included disc containing the driver. This actually seemed to be working but it wanted to connect to the printer before installing the driver. This brings us to my next problem. I tried the wireless connection setup first. Printer showed as connected to wifi and the router app showed the printer as a connected device too. Unfortunately, my computer couldn’t access/find it. Next I tried connecting it via ethernet and again the router app showed the printer as connected to my network, but my computer still couldn’t access/find it. I tried two different computers over the course of trying to connect. I checked the troubleshooting section of the user guide and there was no guidance available. So not only could I not connect either wirelessly or over ethernet, I couldn’t even proceed with the driver installation. I finally gave up and drove to a store to buy a USB printer cable (this is a special type of USB cable if you aren’t aware). Once the computer and printer were connected via the cable I bought, I was able to install the driver and print something. The printing was fast and good quality, but you have to be able to connect to the printer to use it, hence my rating.âDO NOT BUY THIS AFWUL THING. Waste of time and money!

Bad network setup instructions unless you are an IT person
I didnât want to connect it with a computer or hardwire it to a router. I was able to get it connected to my wifi using the manual method, choosing my network name from the screen and entering my password. I had to hook it to my guest network because the panel only shows letters and numbers, no special characters. I then had to join the guest network to be able to print to it with my phone or ipad. It does print very clearly and super fast.

Mac friendly, nice printer for the price
We bought HP color desk jets for years. The drawbacks were: 1) that the ink always dried out much faster than we could use it, and 2) there are older HP desk jet models that no longer work with the newer versions of Mac OS v 12.0+ – even though you can still buy the ink cartridges – HP doesn’t actually have drivers compatible with Mac Monterey+.So, I’m now trying this affordable b/w Canon printer, since I like their scanners (which work well with Macs too). Setting up this printer for wireless printing on a Mac was relatively easy. The one unusual item occurred at unpacking – after pulling out all the shipping protective tape, the printer top would not re-close (a lot of mechanical resistance for the last inch or so). After fidgeting for a bit, I realized that there is a black horizontal bar underneath that needs to be pushed down, and then the top will close easily. I couldn’t quickly find the info on the user guide or the internet, so I thought I would mention it here. Otherwise, seems to print great.

Nice printer
I like this printer, it’s black and white print only. Prints fast as well. I had no issues with setting it up to my wifi and lap top. I would recommend this printer if you just need for black and white prints only.
