MegaTank G3270 All-in-One Wireless Inkjet Printer. for Home Use, Print, Scan and Copy,White

I read many of the reviews. It was super simple to set up. I'm using the Wi-Fi and it seems to work great for my needs. The Epson I had for a few years broke. I researched and picked up this Canon. Seems to be fine. I do recommend this product.

Pros: Easy setup, 1, 2, 3, follow the instruction, No problem. WiFi with the tiny screen took a second to connect. This is a great little printer. Good quality prints, sharp and clear, good color, Ink lasts a long time. Cons: The printer feels cheap, the quality of the plastic all around feels thin and fragile. I have a Canon Pixma 7120 that feels like a tank, glossy plastic cover, felt strong, still going after 8 years or more of good printing. The little tiny LCD screen, really Canon, its hardly visible. What happened to the giant (in comparison) LCD screen like the one on the P7120??? Only reason I'm replacing it is Windows 11 - printer is not 100% compatible. It will print but I can't scan and I need that feature. Back to the G3270 - Love this little printer, I'm careful opening and working around the covers so nothing will break. Double sided printing is possible but you have to reload the sheets into the try and print the second side. It does not print double sided sheets automatically like the P7120, bummer. Takes up more space, although a smaller footprint because of the rear paper tray. The paper stands tall so you need room above the printer to load the paper. I raised the shelf to 14" above the printer to accomodate the paper tray. It's easiler to load the paper but it takes up space. Beautiful pages of black and white text, color printing is wonderful, really improved over the P7120. Mega Tanks are awesome, easy fill and they remain full after literally 100's of pages of printing. I've been through three reams of paper and still going strong. I'm talking about double sided pages of full text, powerpoint presentations with notes and various signs in color. GREAT. I looked a the big brother the G3290 (with the larger screen) couldn't find one online or at a local store?? Yeah, they are available now after I bought the G3270 WHAT?

I bought this printer because while my laser will print in color the photo quality is lacking and the color from it hasn't been the best (it's about a 15 year old printer!). I sometimes make photo test prints and fliers for my business which often include photos so needed something with decent photo quality and color and this printer has worked well for that despite being a more budget model. It prints fairly fast but it's also pretty loud while doing it (and not just loud but harsh mechanical / moving parts kind of sounds). There is a silent mode which makes a very noticeable difference in how loud it is when printing at the cost of some printing speed. For me losing a little printing speed is worth it for quieter printing so I've set silent mode to be on all the time. As I mentioned, I like the ink tank concept and this is actually my second megatank printer. The first one I had I let sit for too long without using (a couple of times) and many of the nozzles got clogged. After a lot of cleaning cycles I was able to get most of the nozzles working again but then the maintenance cartridge was full and the printer wouldn't let me print without sending it in to Canon for repair. Letting it sit for too long is my fault but the older printers didn't have a user replaceable maintenance cartridge, so once the printer thinks that is full it's useless until you send it in for repair. Considering the cost of shipping a big bulky printer (I don't know what the repair cost with Canon would have been) I ended up recycling my first megatank printer and went back to using my laser printer for awhile. Now the newer printers have user replaceable maintenance cartridges which is great, and I've made it a habit to do a test print at least every other week to avoid having clogged nozzles again. So hopefully I won't need to replace the maintenance cartridge anytime soon but when that time comes it's nice to know that I can do it myself without much cost or hassle.

This review is weighed by its cost and performance. I had short term need for a scanner not a high volume printer and ended up impressed by all aspects. Okay the scanner software is clunky but works and is free. Printing quality is very good even compared to machines far more expensive. Haven't attempted faxing but with scanning direct pdf I likely never will need to. Yeah the screen is very small but clear enough for 77 year old eyes. If your needs are limited or wallet is strained one can't go wrong with this all-in-one printer.

I own a small business where I'm printing a lot of paper and I've been using these for 3ish months. First, I bought two of these from BHPhoto. I ended up returning them because I thought the print heads were defective and got streaky within a week. I bought two more from Amazon and the print heads did the SAME THING within a week of usage. The nozzle check would be streaky and would remain that way no matter how many cleanings, deep cleanings or print head alignments I would do. So I bought the product protection plan in case the printers become so low quality or break that I'm forced to return them again. I've printed over 2000+ sheets on each printer. Keep in mind, I've had the Epson Ecotank for 7 years (they finally broke after SEVEN years) and switched to Canon Megatank because I thought it was more affordable. Big mistake and just not worth it. The print heads being streaky wouldn't be as big of a deal if they sold print head replacements. They highlight that the print heads are replaceable but have *not* been in stock ever since I bought the printers. I've never seen them in stock, I have email notifications on. It's been over 3 months. So if you have any issues, you basically have to return the printer. The paper feeder is at too steep of an angle, so if you have humidity issues in your office, your paper is going to fall over and feed with the paper slumped over, it effects the print quality. Even if you're using this as a casual home printer, I wouldn't recommend. They have it on an automatic "energy saving" setting, which turns off your printer when not in use, but that causes the print heads to dry out. You have to turn that off. I thought Canon was known for their print quality but not for these printers. (Small pro): The inks are individually separated so you don't have to worry about the colors mixing when you refill them.

This printer is a workhorse. I have yet to buy more ink for it. I have had HP printers for years and they sucked up the ink really fast and it was so expensive. I had an older Cannon printer before and it worked well, so I thought I would try this new one. So far there is still lots of ink for all the colors and we have done a lot of printing on it so far. It was easy to set up too with the app you add to your phone, iPad, or computer/laptop. Love the wireless feature and it doesn’t lose WiFi signal. My previous HP printer would always lose the WiFi signal and I had a hard time getting it to work. I donated the HP printer that didn’t work very well with WiFi and bought this Canon MegaTank and I am very glad I did.

First time getting a printer that didn’t have cartridges. I haven’t had it long enough to speak on how long the ink lasts BUT I can say the following: Set up was pretty easy. Quality of print is great! To get the best quality for photos/art prints, I have to change the printer settings on my laptop for best results. Otherwise, I find that the quality is fine with the normal setting if I’m just printing documents. Love that it has maintenance settings right on the screen so I can easily clean the rollers/print heads if needed. Can print from phone. Happy with my purchase!

Won't pull just one piece of paper through, pulls multiple sheets every time. I have to hand feed the paper one sheet at a time.
