A decent printer that satisfies basic home office print needs

It worked at first. Now every time I try to print the ink colors aren't printing and the tank won't accept any more ink. I fix once problem only for another to occur.

I bought a GX 4020 based on Canon's reputation. I is finicky as a housecat. It goes off line randomly and now hasn't printed in two days no matter if I try all manner of reboots. I would not recommend this machine even to the engineers who designed it.

Purchase and delivery process were easy. Setup for non-tec was relatively easy. Computer close to printer so I used a cord, not included with the printer. No router/printer connection problems. Had printer for 3 weeks with no problems. Wished printer also came in black.

Update: This printer needs extra attention, more time than one can afford to give. Every freakin' update, either your phone, your router, and for this printer is a hellish nightmare. No one has this kind of time and why the hell this printer is extremely sensitive is beyond me bc quite frankly, I have yet to experience, partake in any of its bells and whistles. Printing the settings yeah it helps, but it's useless when it DOES NOT PRINT. When it doesn't print, it says no issues found. This printer causes more stress & grief than what it's worth. Shame on Canon for producing and manufacturing junk.

This review is for first inspection. It came out of the box broken. The control panel does not tilt because one of the two anchor points is broken. I have yet to use it for printing. I have doubts.

It's ok. When it works, it works. Nothing to brag about. But when it doesn't work, man do I want to throw it out the window! Once you've completed your set up, may the printer gods help you if a print job should fail. OMG it's a PITA to get it back. The actual print color is OK, at best. The print quality just isn't there. I haven't printed a photo yet but will report back when I do. I guess what I'm trying to say is that printing shouldn't be this cumbersome and aggravating.

While an updated PIXMA, it still doesn't print photos from the internet as well as the HP-5255 did. The HP-5255 produced clear, concise photos; the PIXMA at $200.00, not so much, as 'grainy' photos are what appear even after calibrating, aligning, and clearing ink nozzles. As old as the HP-5255 is, and as new as the PIXMA G3290 is, one would think that the results from this Canon product would be far better. A dirty, rotten shame to be honest. But who wants to pack up a printer to return it? Maybe just improve the product in comparasion to your comp; in fact, exceed HP maybe?

This is a really great printer! For clarity, I was sent a free sample to test it out, but I have to say - I would totally buy this printer based on the value and performance. It prints so crisp and clear, even with heavy and bold color imagines. I also print double sided very often and my previous printer I had to manually reload, but this printer automatically flips the pages for you and prints on both sides! It's such a time saver! The mega tanks are also great because you don't have to change the ink as often and I plan to sign up for the subscription service so I'll never be out of ink. Overall this printer is an excellent value and I highly recommend it for your family and small business.

I received a free sample of the Canon Mega TankPIXMA G3290 printer and am obsessed with it!!! It was so easy to set up. All I had to do was plug it in and the screen took me through each step until completed. It prints easily and has been so helpful in my daily life!! I've always felt it's so difficult to return packages, but now that I have a printer to use for my packing slips, it couldn't be easier!! Overall, this product have made my life better. I would recommend it to anyone!

This was the first CANON printer I have ever used and I will never go back to that other horrible printer brand! The setup was so easy and I was able to connect it to my IPad because that's what I use for work. The printing quality is just what I expect from Canon.I received this product for free and I will continue using it. It printed quickly and didn't give me any issues.

I received a free sample of this printer to review and I was very impressed with the quality and speed. The large ink tanks hold a ton of ink and the built in duplexing saves on paper. This printer does not have automatic feed for scanning/faxing but I do very little of that anymore so it didn't take away from the experience. The printer quality is above where I would expect for this price range and I was happy with the quality of the colors and how close they were to the screen colors. Overall a great printer for the price and with the giant ink tanks you will save a lot of money replacing ink.

I received a free sample of the canon printer to review and so far it has been great! I love that it is wireless and I can print from my phone. I also love that is has a scanner, which comes in handy for my work. I am not very tech savvy and I had no problems figuring out how to use it. Great product! Would recommend.

I received this printer for free so I could sample it and give my review, so with that in mind, I really do like this printer. I think the way the ink is packaged and input into the printer is very user-friendly, easy to understand, and gives a fantastic real-time indication of where you are on ink levels. The connection setup time was very fast and painless- AND it comes with its own app! The size is perfect for my little home office and easy, small print jobs I need to be done in my home. I don't think I would use this for large-scale printing, or if I needed hundreds of pages at once, but for your everyday projects it's really stellar! The print quality is very nice and it also isn't too loud! I would recommend this printer!

This all in one printer has to be the best home office tool I have ever used. As a former office manager as well as a stay at home mom and part time telecommute employee, this bad boy does it all: printing, PRINTING RIGHT FROM YOUR PHONE, scanning, copying. I have to say the set up was easy, no fighting between me and my husband, and connecting to my laptop as well as my phone was very easy. Its been very convenient for doing school stuff with the kids as well, I love being able to print teacher forms right from my phone on the couch to the printer. I was sent this free sample in exchange for my honest review.

I was sent this free printer to review, and I'm so glad I got a hold of one of these. I was getting so tired of having to flip my paper over on my old printer to get it to print double-sided. This one automatically prints double-sided. This is the greatest feature. I get to save money on paper and don't have to clutter my house with more paper waste. I like that it is relatively compact for all the features it has and isn't too loud. It fits well under my desk and still leaves plenty of room for my legs, and it doesn't wake my cats up from their naps when printing takes place. The best part of all is I don't need to go to a pharmacy anymore to pick up picture printouts. I bought some glossy photo paper and was able to print some pics at home. They came out super legit and are hanging up on my wall now. Super happy with it.

The Canon Megatank Pixma 3290 is large desktop ink jet printer with large ink tanks that last much longer that conventional cartridges. The images appear colorful and well defined. I used this printer to create color and black and white images for scrapbook greetings cards and flyers for my sales. The only issue I had was slow feeder and output. I received this printer as a sample for a review.

I am very happy to have received this free printer item. It has been a wonderful experience because it works the best apart from the fact that the images come out as clear as they are taken in the photos I like that you can print multiple sheets at the same time this makes our office work easier and more effective I love this article thank you I recommend everyone to use this article

I received a free canon megatank pixma g3290 to use for this review and I can say that I would rate it 4 out of 5 stars. To start with I print a lot of pages to bind my own books and being able to have automatic front and back printing is a must, not only does this printer have it, but it also gets the job done quickly. As far as ink capacity, I think it does really well. So far I've printed around 800 pages and still have not even gone through 1/4 of the ink. At fist the printer was a little complex to hook up to the Bluetooth on my laptop, but once it was connected I haven't had any problems with it after. I would say that my only complaint is that it can only hold paper up to 8.5 inches. With a printer listed for $199 i would hope i could at least move up to 11x17. Otherwise I'm very happy with my product and if you were looking to just print letter size document then this printer is perfect!

This Canon MegaTank G3290 is amazing! This is the first tank printer I have owned and it is so much better than the cartridges I used to use...they last longer and have better printing. I work from home and print a lot of documents and PDFs and this printer handles it all and prints quickly! I connect wirelessly and all devices in my home have connected to it no problem. I did receive this as a free sample in exchange for writing this honest review. I will certainly be using this for years to come.

I was sent this amazing printer free to review. I absolutely love that the printer has refillable ink! And that it's affordable and simple to refill! Setting up the printer was easy. Connecting it to my laptop was a very smooth process. The print quality (color) is perfect as compared to my other printer. The only downside (which is not a big deal, but needs to be shared) is that it takes awhile to start. It is bigger than my other printer and heavier. That's not a big deal as you won't need to carry it around. I'm loving the different options of having it set to home or business. And that you can program it from the front panel. At the moment, I'm using this printer way more than my other one.

I had received this canon printer for free as a sample to review and I must say I'm an overall impressed at how well this printer works! Nothing I've printed thus far as come out pixelated or smeared! The color quality and the design is very impressive. It is simple and easy to use! I am able to print many copies very fast! I would highly recommend!
