Canon Printer Not Printing Black

I received a free sample of this printer for review and overall, I love it. Out of the box the Canon Maxify MB5420 is sleek and beautiful in a high gloss black finish and super easy to assemble and setup. It provides numerous printing features that I have been looking for in an all-in-one color printer that is great for small business as well as busy home use: 500 sheet capacity printing and 50 sheet ADF capacity scanner with the ability to print to multiple print sizes including A4, and label and envelope printing. It has Duplex print, fast first page print, scan, fax, and my favorite features - wireless capable, Mobile device printing including AirPrint, and Cloud printing from Google and Microsoft (which I love). Fast printing at 6 seconds for black only pages and 7 seconds for color which is hardly noticeable between the two. My old color printer takes twice as long to print color pages than black only so this is a big improvement for me. It has a big 3.5" touch LCD that is easy on the eyes to read and select the different options. I also like the fact that Canon services and Support is 100% US-based, keeping jobs in the USA as well as helping to assure that I will be able to understand the person on the other side of the line. A couple of things that could be improved upon is that I think the 2 foot cord is too short. I would have liked to see a 5-6 foot cord as I have a desk that the Printer cord needs to go behind to reach the power outlet requiring an extension cord. Also, although I like the fact that they have video tutorials online as well as the manual, it would have been nice to see a manual or feature tutorial included with the printer besides just the Getting Started 1 & 2 quickstep instructions. However, these are minor annoyances at best and do not take anything away from this feature-rich printer. I highly recommend this high-quality printer for its capabilities and ease of installation.

I am not having a problem with the cartridge. The problem that I am having is the printer is only printing black not color. How can I correct this problem?

This is the largest black cartridge in my Canon MX870 printer.

It annoys me that my printer quits printing correctly when the photo black gets so old get hasn’t been used but what is one to do without buying a new printer.

I received the Canon Printer - MAXIFY MB5420 free of charge to give an honest review. The printer is amazing. Specs include: - Wireless & Mobile Printing (Color or Black/White) - Copy Machine - Fax Machine - Scanner - Touch Screen You`d think with all those features, it would be huge...Not at all. It`s a great size for everything it has, quiet and easy to assemble. PC and Mobile setup was a breeze. For mobile printing, you`ll need to download Canon`s printing app. It`s super easy to use. Documents and pictures come out great. I was very surprised at how clear my images printed. The touch screen feature could be a little bit better. I`m used to it now, but it is a little difficult to recognize finger prints. Just give it a hard press. Overall, this printer gets a 9/10. I definitely recommend.

I needed a color printer occasionally as my laser is black & white for most of my printing I also needed an updated scanner to replace my old one! And on top of this, it was completely set up in minutes... I love this!!! I can also print from my cellphone!

I don't really have a choice. This is the ink I have to use in my printer. But I am very pleased with the results (I'm printing in black & white exclusively). I can count on B&H to have the supplies I need when I need more.

The printer almost installed itself. I like the wireless connection and the black inks that do not need to be changed for different papers. Excellent printing results, too.

I just finished printing a new series of Black and White prints. As always, great results with a Cannon printer with Cannon ink.
