Canon - PIXMA TR4520

It's still very new and I have not put it to good use, but from the 5 pages I printed, I'm very happy. As far as other reviews goes for speed, I didn't think it was slow at all if you're just printing documents. Photos on the other hand is different, but that's with any printer.

So far- working great! The initial ink cartridges are small - so I recommend getting a back up set to start. Nice quality on docs. Images also printed pretty well. Have not tried photos yet. Would recommend for a reasonably priced printer.

I have been using my new Canon printer for less than a month in my classroom — I am extremely happy with the ease of use and functionality of this printer.

So easy to set up and it works! Needed for the kids school now online. Whew! This is an awesome and easy fix for printing! Thank you Canon! Fast ship too....great price!

My previous printer, also a Canon, was worked very hard (I'm a student) and lasted over two years with no problems whatsoever. So I decided to buy another Canon printer. So far so good. Was very pleased to find out that it does 2-sided printing without me having to turn over the pages and refeed.

Still learning this got it last week I'm not much for tecnolagy so I like that it's easy to use and understand gives you what to do on the screen only jammed once so far that's kinda hard to get it unjammed but still got it so I guess for the money it's worth it.

Set up and initial printing has gone fine. For the price and the quality it is a great purchase. Only issues thus far are keeping the printer online and being able to read the screen on the printer. The printer comes with an auto shut off. I found how to turn this off but it is still limited to 240 minutes of online time. The other issue is being able to read the small screen. I have to use the "flashlight" on my cell phone to read the screen. I wish it was illuminated. I am 75 and it is hard for an old man to see the small non-illuminated print.

Easy setup - I didn't even need to ask my techie son for help! Not fancy, but does everything I need for a really reasonable price. My favorite feature is the duplex printing without having to go and turn the paper over. Do yourself a favor and order extra ink when you purchase this printer, as the ink cartridges that came with it ran out fairly quickly.

Bought this printer a month ago to replace an Epson WF-4630 which failed after 16 months. I can't give this printer 4 or 5 stars just because it prints because that is expected. Overall, it is a small footprint, functional device. There are some pain points which I saw in other reviews which could be solved. First, is that this printer goes to sleep and sending a job to it doesn't wake it up. Thus I need to get up and walk to the printer and push a button to print. I often print stuff from my laptop or phone from somewhere else in the house. Next, very unnerving was the fact that the printer would not make a basic quick copy because it said the item I wanted to copy was a different size than the paper that was in the tray. I got very stressed for 15 mins going through the menus. Turned out I had 8x10 in one setting and 8x11 in the other. I actually had to go online, read the manual and find an option to disable this check which solved the problem. This should be off by default. Next is that you need to install an app on your phone in order to print - never had to do that prior. Next is there is no option on the printer to set up the wireless password - need to do this through a computer - thus do not buy this printer if you don't have a computer. Next is the menus are very tedious. Not intuitive. Takes a long time to get to what you want and some menus you can't exit from by pushing the menu button. I've walked away from it several times frustrated. Next is that the screen often says "wait" while it does something. Not sure why? Next is the display always says copy - there are buttons for copy, scan and fax but no button for print - so it always looks like it is in copy mode. Next, it now has a message on the screen "firmware is on the server" - press OK. So, I press OK. It does nothing - why isn't it asking to download and install it? Guess it's back to the required PC and the manual to figure that out. Lastly it's louder than expected. Don't try to print a birthday card late at night for your partner. I am a very technical friendly person so I feel these pain points would apply to all. It is a good printer, is inexpensive, has a small footprint, is multi-function but can be stellar with menu improvements and software changes.

Just had another fatal paper jam on my third TR 4520 machine after less than 100 sheets of paper used. With this machine, a paper jam cannot be fixed and means the end of the machine as it did with the two previous machines. You need to design a machine where you can easily get to the paper to extract it.
