Review: Quality Printer - Good quality printer. Easy to set up and operate. The scanner is good quality which was important to us as we are scanning in quite a lot of old family photos. Print quality good too, recommend.
Review: Lovely Printer - Great for my small home office use. I had issues when first recieved it and did the deep clean from the menu. Solved but then it stopped printing 1 of the colours. I called up Canon amd they talked me through the menu options to flush through the printer head and said that this has happened as the seller must have had it sitting on the shelf for a long time. All maintenance can be done by the actual printer itself though which is great and flushing through the colours solved my issue. Canon customer support were great 👍

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality Printer

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely Printer

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Printer
*by T***Y on 9 August 2025*

Excellent printer/scanner. I wanted something with Ethernet as scanning over WiFi is often quite a bit slower. I also run Linux so this one had the right Debian etc. drivers although driver-less printing via CUPS is supported anyway. My only gripe is that the Canon IJ scanning software is not as comprehensive as it was for my previous Canon printer (MG6150). Having said that, very pleased overall so far.
