Wifi Network Thermal Printer

I had an 8-year old Brother printer that had bad connectivity issues in my home mesh WiFi environment. Then the time came that I had to replace all four toners, so instead I spent SIGNIFICANTLY less $$ to purchase this new machine complete with 6-months worth of toner (very light home office use; more scanning than printing). With this Canon I get modern WiFi to connect to our network. Everyone in the house can easily print from MacBooks, iPads & iPhones via WiFi. The Brother just couldn't find or stay connected to our network. Even plugging into the ethernet didn't solve that so the old printer could only be used w/ a USB cable. There are NONE of those issues with the Canon. Worked right out of the box like I expect from new tech. I'm impressed with the scanning software, too. Better than the Brother app, but YMMV So far very happy with this purchase. 5-stars. And as always, B&H makes tech buying simple. Plus next-day delivery over 100-miles from NYC. Flawless!! Thanks, B&H!!

This product prints adequately enough. However, the WiFi setup is clunky, burdensome, and at this point, impossible! I had to change my wifi settings on my router and start a new network. But, first, the printer does not recognize the network as it did with the first set up. I tried setting up again via my phone. Couldn't do it. I tried setting up on the microscopic printer window - and even typed in the network and the password - assuring that they were exactly correct. But, it still would not connect. I have zero use for a printer that cannot connect via WiFi! This is absurdly bad. Absolute waste.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll start off by saying that this printer/scanner is perfect for the home office and what great you can print directly from your phone no computer needed, I will have to say that printing from your phone has some constraints also, the speed at which the document is sent may be stymied by your wifi network speed. I printed a 76 page user manual from my android phone through my wifi network every page had a 2 second pause on average probably because my network speed, and other things using bandwidth in my house. I scanned to print the test page it did show some degradation in details. Overall I would recommend this printer for a small home office / college situation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely quick to setup. Quick to startup. Fast printing. Has support for WiFi printing, which is fantastic - esp for the price! That is, once the printer is setup the first time to connect to WiFi, other machines on the same network will see the printer and be able to use it. The USB connection can then be entirely disconnected. It's the cheapest and smallest network printer I've ever seen or used. It's also cute with a small footprint and an overall appealing design, and doesn't look like an ancient monstrosity - unlike most other printing devices.

This printer works great with windows 11 and windows 10. I needed a new printer, my old HP was not windows 11 comparable. The new HP printers required an HP online account for local printing, which I do like. So gave this Canon a try and it is great! I have it on a network with both Windows 10 and 11 computers with no issues. Setup was easy and it installed in minutes. I have it connected to the network WiFi router via a Ethernet cable and use a fixed IPV4 IP. (disabled DHCP). Now anyone connected to my WiFi can easily print!

Easy install as a network printer.

Works Great! Resolved several of my WiFi network problems

I purchased to set up network. Worked great 'til I could get my WIFI up and going.

My family and I are very happy with our new ORBI home wifi network.

This device it is really simple to set up and gave new “life” to my WiFi network.
