I specifically wanted a wireless printer because of my workspace so I was very disappointed to find that this is not a wireless printer despite having the word “wireless” in the product title. I’m not sure how sellers are even allowed to do that.
To add to my frustrations it doesn’t even come with the cable to connect to a computer so it has arrived in an unusable state. I would have returned it were it not for the hassle of having to take it to a drop off point 10 miles away because, ironically, I can’t print out a label for it. I also have some urgent documents to print tomorrow which is why I ordered it to be delivered today, so I have ended up ordering the cable to arrive tomorrow instead of the rigmarole of returning it.
Very frustrating and disappointing.

Previous Epson XPS 630 …no problems. This printer bought because did have excellent reviews. It stubbornly refused to print 5 x 7.
Kept showing error 4102. I changed paper from glossy to gloss II and it worked after a very frustrating day.

First off, this printer is not wireless although it is advertised as being so. Furthermore, you need a cable to connect the printer to your laptop to complete installation and it doesn’t come with the cable so I had to buy one separately. The driver has to be downloaded from the Canon website (unless you have a laptop that still has a CD drive – most modern laptops don’t) and it took 3 attempts to actually install it properly as it encountered errors each time.
There’s some nice additional apps that you can download from the driver, but if you just want basic print and scan functionality, these aren’t useful and are quite big in size so take up a lot of unnecessary storage space.

I’m not a heavy Duty printer user, so I just needed something to replace my Canon MP210 which had given up the ghost.
This fills the bill nicely. The only problem that I can think of is that it doesn’t come with a connecting cable to link to my Lap Top. That has to be bought separately. That’s just not right, but apart from that all is going well.

Excellent value for money printer. Perfect print quality. Ink cartridges readily available, reasonably priced. Only slight snag is that the necessary printer to USB lead not included, but I remembered to order one separately, having seen this mentioned in other reviews. With a Windows 10 laptop there’s no need to worry about not having a CD drive to set up the driver, Windows will automatically do that, so long as you’re online.

I ordered this printer in good faith as a wireless printer, as described. When it arrived it was NOT wireless so I returned with the promise of a full refund, including return postage. Initially the cost of the printer was refunded and after 2 weeks of chasing I’ve been informed that a credit has been put through for £ 10.00 for the postage, whereas the actual cost was £13.14 so I’m still out of pocket. Not happy.

This printer is advertised as wireless, which it is not. Despite not being wireless, it did not come with a USB cable to connect to my computer and the power cable was 2 pin so an adaptor is required if you intent on using it next to the bathroom shaver socket. The printer feels flimsy and was very noisy once I got it working. I had to return it – just too many negatives.

After a lot of reading and digging I should have read all the other reviews. The description of the product is wrong and it’s completely offline usb only printer and it does not even come with the cable, no WiFi direct, no Bluetooth nothing just old school cable, which is fine if you flipping put it on the description.
Returning? It’s a hassle now in have to live with a 3 meters usb cable …
