Don't find any difficulty with installation (Followed the installation steps from youtube)
There are 2 issues:
1. The printing speed via WIFI/SELPHY APP is very slow, my wifi connectivity is good. Seems the issue persists with printer data receiver.
2. While installation/Initial Head setup, printer has consumed more ink from YELLOW tank. Almost 1/4 of the ink was gone during installation. But afterwards the ink usage looks normal..
Once the installation is complete, it is a very easy to connect to it if the device is on the same network. I haven't tried WiFi direct, so can't review about it.
Speaking about the print quality, it is excellent. Keep in mind the quality of the paper, the quality of the source image and the App you use of printing makes a world of differences. I tried printing pictures on a Kodak Glossy paper using my phone and cannon printer app, the quality was not as much as I expected. Was a little disappointed, but when I used GIMP ( a free photo editing app ) on windows and selected the right size of the paper. The print quality was awesome.
Document printing and Scanning is perfect, you can print through any app, even using mobile the quality is awesome.
Overall a perfect product of printing at cheap rate and great quality.
It never worked properly since day one, Had to follow all troubleshooting before every print
If used with any other Ink from Amazon then the printer stops working with Error Code: 5B00
Although I was aware that there is no LCD screen to guide me thorough the menus, my geekiness will support me, I was sure.
Installation with my computer via WiFi router was pretty easy. Did a few tries to locate the printer on my network and tried the button shortcuts and finally got it connected.
Prints were good. Ink seems to be drained a lot as 3 prints on, I could see about 15 percent drop in the ink levels. Need to ascertain it in the long duration.
Now comes the tricky part. I wanted to connect it to my phone and another phone not on my WiFi router network. I installed the Canon "Print" app and it was not detecting my printer.
I tried detecting WiFi direct devices but was not able to see the printer. After a few tries with the button shortcuts, I was able to locate it in the regular WiFi devices. I connected to the WiFi printer and was able to at least connect the phone to the printer directly. Prints and scans were again possible.
Then came the real headache. The printer was not getting detected by the computer now. By some unknown reasons, this printer is not able to connect to both services, WiFi direct (act as hotspot) and regular WiFi (access a hotspot) simultaneously.
My previous WiFi MFD, a 5000 rupee HP was easier to install, easier to understand and connect and had none of the aforementioned WiFi issues!
I called up the Canon customer care (18002083366) on Saturday and raised a service request. service guy will visit my in 24 hours, I was told. Come Tuesday, I still didn't get the service call atleast.
I gave them a call on Tuesday morning and reiterated the issue. They gave me a local service number. After a few hours, I got a call and I had to tell them the whole story again. Second installation is not free, I was told. I said that the first installation was done by myself. They agreed to come by evening.
Evening they gave excuses that they were caught up with other customers and don't even have the courtesy to lift my phone. I'm still waiting. Will update after they actual arrive. I just hope the service rep has better skills than myself.
I'm pretty sure it's not an issue which can be sorted out onsite. There might be shop servicing needed. I should have gone with Amazon return as I'm still within that period. But I'm being a gentleman, for now.
Update : Gentleman's patience broke. I got a replacement. Problem persists another way.
I realised my 12k Canon printer can only act as either a wifi-direct printer or can access an external WiFi router, but cannot do both, like my 5k HP printer.
The technicians reply made it clear. Sir, canon doesn't have any models in the sub-15k range which can be accessed by laptops vide wifi router and at the same time by accessed by phones vide wifi Direct! Thumbs down.
The printer however served its purpose of printing well in standard and best modes. Draft mode had lines showing up on an otherwise splendid photo.
Another irritating problem with this device is the scanning application. Competitors need to learn from HP. Their scanning apps were so user friendly. This one in yet to find easy ways to scan proud or documents readily with my required settings by default. Not at all user friendly. Instead it pops up like some irritating ads we get online!
Overall, this is an ok device for the rate. The only saving grace are the ciss, which for now works great and the decent print quality for standard and best modes. So far so good.
2) But it is too noisy. 1/5
3) Software need to be more user-friendly. 3/5
Setup is easy: 4.5/5
4) Windows app and MAC OS apps are different a bit. MAC version can be improved.
5) Scan quality is not at getting best. Widows app has better resolution options to get better quality Scan.: 3.5/5
6) Copy works good, for home use with limited copy requirements: 4/5
7) Over all easy setting up of printer, including ink and other parts. A person with limited knowledge can install it with ease, without expert support. Printer help doc can be improved though. 4/5
I tried turning it on and off a few times but it didn't work. then I pulled the plug, reinserted the plug and powered it on. and finally this time it made it noises and started setting itself up. I could use the printer for the rest of the day with out trouble.
but then the next day they happened again..
and then the day after this happened again.
I'm quite upset with this product. remaining all functions and print quality is great for office use. but if the printer doesn't work then nothing else matters. id like to return this product but unfortunately I've crossed the return window.
Im not sure what to do but to contact cannon now.
Pros:
1. Ink tank printers are money savers in the long run and work for longer as well.
2. Premium body finish and look
3. WiFi connectivity is the best thing you can go for, its future proof. If its linked on your router, you can print documents from any corner of the room via any device without having to go the printer. Even desktops dont need a cable to connect cause it prints via the local network so you can place the printer anywhere and use it flawlessly.
4. You get additional black ink bottles which is a plus point.
5. Lower maintenance needed than other printers.
6. Borderless printing is great.
7. Atleast 2 prints within a week is important to ensure the printer works at its full potential. Also, if printing is not possible, atleast switch on the printer once in 3 days to allow it to self clean itself. These practices will ensure your printer wont get any problems.
8. Free installation provided by Canon which you should definitely avail.
9. Refills are way cheaper than cartridges.
Cons:
1. Installation isn't very straightforward so even if you are a genius at figuring things out, I suggest you call the Canon service centre for a free installation setup. They are well versed with it so and its free so dont mess it up by doing it yourself.
2. Print quality is, okaayyyy. Nothing WOW like. Haven't print photos yet so cant talk about that. But regular printing is lighter, as if its trying to save ink. Or maybe my setting is off, cant really say.
3. Scans are really bright, high definition but sometimes light colours come off as white in an image due to bright illumination. Can be rectified via settings in the Scan utility interface.
4. First print is slow. You have to wait for the printer to do its stuff before you print something. After that, the prints are quicker.
5. Pretty noisy when the printer head undergoes adjustment before and after printing. Also during its self clean operation.
6. Vertical paper inlet doesn't allow you to stick it against a wall so you'll need more space at the back.
7. Print alignment occasionally gets angled but its kinda rare.
Verdict :
Although there are a few cons, the pros beat them anyday. If you're looking for a basic home printer or small office/shop printer where you can save money in the long run and still have a decent working product, then go for it. Plus Canons service is pretty fast and efficient so you can always avail their facilities if any problems arise.
First, it has issues with MAC. Installation is painful.
Then it has a special app that you need to use on mobile phone.
Then it just flat out doesn't work with Linux.
Then setting up wifi printing is painful.
Just walk away pal.
And oh, darker images have parallel lines through out the page.
And also, it cannot duplex print from Mac or Linux or Android (not sure about Windows). I think its hardware cannot support.
And also, scanner generates potato quality scans.
Just bad! Money loss.
Easy to use
Do not forget to cleanse all the tubes through system cleanser time to time..
It's been almost 14 months I have been using it rigorously..
It works great, though there have been minor problems of page congestions at rare times, but then you have troubleshooters for everything. There're YouTube for help as well, for every other situation.
Refilled the colours once as well...
Trust me there's no better printer+scanner+photocopying gadget at this range; even beyond this range for personal and office use.
One of the best printers I have used!
Engineer at the first seeing the printer mentioned this is not a good printer and you must have not bought this from Amazon that this and all. later he never was ready to explain anything and just set up everything on his own, when asked to explain the process if something goes wrong / how to connect to mobile... etc., he was never ready to answer and just told any problem you must call customer care and only we can do the setup... he did not even explain how to connect to wifi, mobile. Just did all by his own and left... Totally a bad experience from Canon. I must have gone to HP or another printer...
Pros: It well built. It prints well. It has lots of ink to store and it is cheap to operate.
Cons:
Setting up the WiFi was a headache. Finally managed it. The biggest drawback is either it is connected to wifi through router or each device independently. You cannot have both options at the same time. The second concern is there is no duplex printing so back to back printing has to be manual. The printer does take some long time to print and is little noisy too. The Canon Selphy app is fine but not very user-friendly in selecting the document and making the print setting changes.
I have not called for the technician for the installation but it did take 2 days to set right my WiFi router connectivity. As I said I used it with direct connection until then, but once wifi router is connected this option is lost.
Overall a recommend buy at this price just for the sake of cheap operating costs for this printer and print quality is definitely good if not the best at this price point.
If you don’t use regularly, ink will dry in the pipes and print are not with all colours or blank sometimes
I have to deep clean many times through windows maintenance tool.
Overall otherwise no problem.
If you are a newbie to printers some of this stuff won't be easy for you
The Canon Pixma is a Full Featured no hassle WiFi(LAN) and WiFi Direct P2P enabled monster.
It prints seamlessly on regular 75GSM A4 paper with wonderful clarity in both black and colors.
For Photos you can start from 180GSM Glossy Paper to 275GSM easily and depending on your photo editing skills you can truly bring any picture to life.
The printer has a 2 phase setup with comprehensive documentation in the box
English Instructions are readily available for first time setup followed by how to sync with PC(Windows/MacOS). And Android iOS phones.
Many folks have posted vague feedback stating they donot like print quality.
Let me say categorically it is a very nice mid level printer and at 9K (Lightening Deal) quiet a steal.
Please feel free to go ahead if you are a techie and enjoy using photo shop,GIMP or other image editors.
This printer is not for newbies
Also they have given 2 Xtraa blank ink refills with the box,
I am very happy with it's build quality as well and have faced no issue s in printing over WiFi(LAN). Or via my Android Pie phone
In short go for it if you love to print lots of photos or are interested in small office or WFH business.
Good Luck will post some content printed with G3K soon.
Happy Independence Day 2019.
Wireless connectivity is very good. Easy to connect with multiple device like I have connected with Phone and Laptop both.
Color Print: Quality was good. In starting for few prints (first 10 print) would use lots of color and it look like it will finish early. But wait if we understand initially it use color to fill the tube that's why took lots of color in first few page. After that it work like charm
If you are using glossy paper then make sure after print put the paper aside atleast for 24 hour, to settle down the colors. Otherwise if you use your figures or anything it spread the color unevenly and damage your print.
Limitation:
1. Auto duplex printing is not available
2. ADF feature not available.
Overall I would say for home usage you can completely buy it. It worth it.
Installation is not at all difficult, its best if you download the software first from the Cannon site.Follow the instructions given in the Manuel, its very easy to understand.For WiFi signal use the USB cord provided for quick connectivity.You don't need to watch any You tube videos for installation.
Basic function of a good Printer for me is to give quality printing which I found with this printer.I have not used any glossy paper but with ordinary A4 size paper printing quality is very good.Till now no issues,Im pretty satisfied with the product
No matter how many times you troubleshoot it, the wifi printing always gets stuck, whether i try to connect through a router or directly, the printing gets stuck in the muddle and then i have to print all the pages one by one manually.
Print quality is just fine.
The printer wire is too short, so now i"ve to stand up next to this printer with my laptop in one hand to print through usb, and stand like and idiot for an long time ( when the pages are large and it takes more time to print per page than others). If you are going to buy it for wifi convenience, then forget about it.
Printing quality is not up to the mark, the prints are coming in very very faded manner even though you select the bold font.
Photo printing is also not up to the mark and definitely not suggestible for the people who wish take the photo prints
Its really hard to set this up to print via cloud and even after one week also I was not able to set this up. This is really a complicated device to set up for cloud.
Over all this is not a great choice!!!!!
Pros
1. Model is very compact. Requires less space to place it.
2.print quality is excellent
3.scan works perfect.
Cons
1. Mannualy have to reverse the sheet for double side print.
2.with the help of there app , can't print double side.
Amazon delivered an already opened box. the original tape was removed and it was repacked. But the inside of the product looks all new and I was able to register it on canon's website and warranty was shown till December 2020. So it appears to be an unused product. It could be a product that is returned by someone after opening the box and not setting it up. It works perfectly and there are no defects. But still I expected better packing. There was absolutely no packing at all and the printer was visible if you lift the side of the lids. The lid wasn't even taped properly. The rating I have given is for the product model, not for amazon or the seller.
So far the print quality has looked average.
I realised it doesnt have paper storage - its a good feature to have.
Its supports double sided print but manually. So you have to put the paper again to make it peint on the other side. Another good feature to have.
Installation was ok with the help of youtube videos.
Wifi setup was a pain but i got through it.
Nevertheless, i hope it stays good for a few years.
While playing, my kid accidentally threw some tiny plastic toy in the input paper tray so it was causing the paper to be jammed and I couldn't get it out. Installed cannon support app on mobile and registered for a technician to visit. He visited immediately the next day and sorted out the issue. This is during the lock-down/restricted days. So very happy with the support.
Only one issue with the printer is the color ink gets consumed relatively quickly. Black ink is very robust, I have printed many pages but still shows a lot of ink is available.
Overall happy with the purchase.
One thing that is missing is auto-reverse printing. After charging so much (for the money paid) they could have included reverse printing option. Currently one has to do manually, no auto-reverse printing. Otherwise, go for this printer and worth selecting the same.
Setting this up wasn’t particularly easy
Setup - 3/5: The physical setup of installing the cartridges and network connectivity took a while although I believe Canon does offer a doorstep installation service (which I did not use)
The software installation on a Mac was quite easy for the printer setup although setting up the scanner for wireless scans did take a while
Do note that this does not support airprint natively (although there is an easy workaround if you have any linux machine on your network)
Cost of prints - 5/5: the tank is a beast, i have taken quite a few full color high quality prints but do not see any visibile drop in the levels
Quality of print: 4.5/5 - Text prints and general graphics are great regardless of choice of paper
However I was initially disappointed when i took photo prints on a generic brand glossy paper - the colors had a yellow cast and looked dull and different from what I see on a monitor’
However once my order of a kodak 280gsm glossy paper came in, i realized the issue was with the paper.
With the higher grade photo paper, the color rendition is practically the same as the monitor
all in all, a great buy - i just hope it lasts
+ You get decent photo quality, good enough for home use and craft work.
+ Document printing is also excellent and well suited for school activities.
+ The ink refills are reasonably priced. The printer comes with a full set and an extra black ink refill.
+ Manual duplex works well, which is a great help in saving paper.
+ Draft mode prints documents rapidly and they are very readable even with the lighter printing.
- The scanning quality could have been better. Photo scans lack finer details though document scans are fine. It doesn’t pick up colour gradations as well as we would have liked.
Really happy with the purchase even though scanning quality could be better. Knocked off a star for scan quality.
Bought it yesterday and it delivered today.
I got it for Rs.13398.
Pros.
1.speed is very good in comparison to other colour printers.
2.print quality is great.
3.can print from any devuce and from anywhere.
4. It takes less time to set ut up and quite easy too.
5.ink is good.
Cons:-
1.No display
2.no double sided printing.
My Opinion:- Buy it as it is a great functioning printer.
I also printed at least 150 pages today and quality is awesome.
Do not give it a second thought just buy it🔥😇😇
But thanks to Amazon for quick replacement after raising a complaint
After limited use, my score out of 5 would be,
Built Quality: 4.5
Installation and setup: 5
App interface: 4.5
Print quality: 4.5
Scan quality:4.5
Printer noise level: 4
Wireless and USB connectivity: 5
Over all rating: 4.5
This is the best printer for Home use, Kids Project and small businesses.
I purchased this printer mainly for, 1. kids homework
2. Scan and print office documents, photographs, sketches and paintings in multiple sizes up to A4
I will more feedback after using few months
INITIAL REVIEW:
Installation is not very easy..but anyone can..just follow the procedure properly.. Google can help also..
Print quality is good... Both color & bw...
Even I printed my Passport & stamp size photos in glossy photopaper and it is very good...
Ink is Ok.. Ink Usage is also seems ok.. Can tell more after using months...
Scan quality is also good.. But one thing.. You cant preview before scan.. Only can see after..
Overall good printer for home and small office use... As per my initial review...
Its an ink-tank printer, that is, Inkjet with a tank to store the printing inks.
Please note it doesn't support duplex printing. Duplex printing is automatic printing of both sides of the paper. G3000 is more of a manual duplex. You will have to pull out the paper after one side printing and then put in back into the printer to have it printed on the other side of the printer.
Print quality is good. Please take 75 GSM papers or above ...If you use lesser GSM papers, it will feel like the printing is not good. Actually a lot depends on the paper type, as far as printing qualities are concerned.
GSM stands for GRAMS PER SQUARE METER. It depicts the thickness and therefore the quality of the paper. Try buying 75 or above GSM papers from local market. The prices in Amazon are kind of at the higher sides.
It support WI-FI connectivity , both over a Wifi router and wifi direct. If you have a router then try using it over the router , otherwise you will have to switch networks a lot between your router network and printer's network.
The installation of the device is a little techie. If you are not comfortable let the support team carry out the installation. The installation is free.
Scanner is pretty good too.
The printer can be calibrated easily from the laptop or mobile application.
Lastly, try to use the printer atleast twice a week. otherwise caking might occur.
Overall its a good printer to use.
