Canon PIXMA TR4720 All-in-One Wireless Printer, Home Use with Auto Document Feeder, Mobile Printing and Built-in Fax, Black

For the money it really can’t be beat. They don’t last forever, some flimsy plastic parts and a pain and I mean a royal pain to get connected for wireless printing bit prints well and copies and scans with an auto feeder at a ridiculously low price. Both color and black and white prints look good. Again for the price can’t be beat.

Not as easy to set up as claimed. Biggest problem I had was connecting to my Wi-Fi. An hour later, it works like a charm. My old HP printer never worked right from day one. Had to keep downloading drivers and such. Good Riddance! This is a larger printer than that, but top of the line Durability. Print quality is excellent. Value for money is a plus. Ink capacity comes with beginner color / black and white. I opted for the $5.99 a month Canon ink replacement. They send you the Large Capacity cartages. To me, that's worth it.

I have used daily for 2 months. Set up was a breeze in 5 minutes with both wireless and wired (I'm a senior). My print speeds are a page faster than rated (slightly more wired), which was a concern in comparing with HP printer speeds. While a bit wide, it fits on a bookshelf, and having a closing feeder tray is effective and convenient. Black print is flawless, color is muted and not as vivid as one would like - but predictable for a printer this price. A primary reason for my selection was ink cost, which is less than HP. I am on the original black cartridge, and great to be able to separate the black from color. The original color cartridge only lasted 3 weeks, but I foolishly replaced it when getting the low ink warning. Be sure to check the actual % on the display before replacing.

I ordered this printer in late 2023, but my older HP printer mysteriously fixed itself, so I kept this in the box until about 6 months ago. I liked it at first. The print quality was good, connectivity was good, and it did its job for the light amount of printing I do.A month ago, it lost connection to my wireless network and I couldn’t fix it. I switched to wired system and fell back onto my old HP for wireless printing. Last week, the printer quality took a dive. The print is doubled and blurry. I went through the maintenance steps, installed new Canon cartridges, and restarted it. No improvement in print quality and now I get a paper jam with every print job. I did the troubleshooting, without improvement.I realize this is a cheap printer, but I really expected more than 6 months use.Today I ordered a new low-end HP as a backup to my old one.

The TR4720 was a breeze to setup in PCLinuxOS. Just had to download and uncompress the cnijfilter2-6.30-1-rpm.tar.gz and then install the RPM file. I than setup the printer in CUPS. Took me less then 15 minutes to be all setup and printing.I am impressed by the speed and the print and color quality. I am disappointed that they do not include a USB cable, which is a USB 2.0 A/B I would recommend the TR4720 to anyone using Linux for a simple and straight forward printer when it comes to setup. It is well worth the money.

Canon printers are the best for home use. I've tried HP and Epson printers and there were always issues whether it was bad WIFI apps for phones that were unreliable (HP), outrageous replacement cartridge prices or frequent paper jams. Canon printers work well with humans who still use laptops and desktops, not just smart phones and tablets. I use the Canon printer with Linux and Windows OS. Linux automatically picks up the Canon printer... no installation required. Windows requires driver install, but it's quick and easy. Easy to configure Canon printer to local WIFI. Cartridges last for several months with moderate use and replacement cartridges don't break the bank. Being able to also copy and scan is convenient, too. Color and black and white print quality is excellent for an ink jet printer. Highly recommended.

The printer is exceptionally helpful for my personal and professional needs. It made my life easier with my current requirements. The installation is pretty easy and printer is quite compatible with my laptop and mobile phone. I can seamlessly print the files with just a tap with great ease via mobile and laptop. The cartridge quality is too good, the black and white and colored prints are of great quality with top notch precision. Affordable pricing makes this my first choice without compromising quality.

Does not have automatic double sided printing. You have to do double sided printing manually with this printer. And the ink supply runs out pretty quickly. But it is a cheap laser printer. And most cheap laser printers have a limited ink supply. So it is pretty normal for a cheap laser printer.The photos are pretty good for a cheap laser printer. But again, do not expect to get a lot of prints off the limited ink supply.If you want a lot of printed projects that use a lot of ink, get a large capacity printer. They are more expensive than laser printers. But they can give you more printouts before you need to put in more ink. Unfortunately, with some large capacity printers you have to refill the ink yourself because they do not have easy to replace cartridges like the laser printers. And avoid recyclable or reusable ink cartridges. They can leak and ruin your printer.This printer is a good quality laser printer, despite the manual double sided printing. It will function as well as any other laser printer brand and print nice quality pictures. Just remember, is a laser printer. They will mess up your prints at times due to ink clogs, human error, and occasionally internet connection problems. It is something that they will all do. But this printer will scan and print very clear pictures and documents. Canon also sells cameras. They know good quality photos when they see them. Try out their cameras sometime too. They are wonderful once you learn about them and are not too complicated to use.
