CanonTS9521C All-In-One Wireless Crafting Photo Printer, 12X12 Printing, White, Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready

I owned an epson artisan 800 printer that lasted me 16 yrs. yes 16. I bought a cis ink system for it and in 16 yrs I filled it twice with ink. the photo quality was hands down amazing. it finally died and I really did not like the way the new epson printers looked and felt. So I switched up and took a chance. I bought this canon and I wanted to make sure I bought a decent one so it was the TS9521C . So far playing with it I am very impressed. double sided printing. cd printing. basically everything my epson did plus alot more, It connects directly to your google drive one drive, ect all the cloud based storage and your stuff is just there. for the print quality? SUPERB. I am talking full hd photo prints. better than you will get from film development at your local cvs. the scanner is amazing, it has more than good resolutions for scanning anything you need. It doesn't say it features a fax but it does fax using windows fax manager. I mean this thing has crazy features. It comes with all kinds of preloaded templates ect. the wifi was a lil confusing at first, the printer was telling me to setup network at the pc and the pc was telling me to set it up at the printer. by default the wifi was disabled and I had to find it and turn it on. the software wasn't really good at finding the printer and I had to manually set it up to connect but once you see how it is youll understand it pretty easy. it comes with carts. but we all know they are half full so they can get you to buy some within a few prints. so far I printed 5 things and the carts are about 1/4 empty. I suggest you purchase a set of refillable cartridges and 100ml bottles of ink. and you should have ink for at least a yr without depending on canon to provide it. the printer wants to auto detect the ink when it gets low and automatically order it for you. no thank you. there is way to many features to type here. I was scared because my epson was a one of a kind printer that was way way ahead of its time. but I see canon wasn't playing around when they designed this bad boy. don't buy an hp as we all know hp is getting sued for bricking there printers when the ink runs out. plus you have to login to a service to print anything. not cool. the epson printers are real nice don't get me wrong. but they dont give the features this thing had unless you purchase the 699.99 expressions 15000 or something like that. which is a real nice printer. but. for 299.99 you can not beat this printer. the quality is just amazing. I can't get enough of it. I am going to print everything under the sun just to look at the quality and see just how lng the ink really does last per ink cart. listen, you can not go wrong buying this printer. bottom line. you will be very impressed just as I am when you see the things it does and has. I give it a 10/10 for everything about it. quality, print quality, features, ease of use ect. Buy It. you will not be disappointed. I promise.

This printer was very easy to setup on my network and control from all my computers. It creates fine looking text printing and bright, smooth color graphics. The 12 x 12 inch borderless printing makes great scrapbook pages or posters. Importantly, it accepts generic ink without a fuss. The double-sided printing takes a while, but works flawlessly. I am very happy with this printer. I encouraged a family member to buy the same, and he is equally happy.

Got this out of the box, loaded up the ink, went through the setup. I disabled the "report back to Canon" function, so Web Services (whatever that is) won't work. Selected a wifi network using the touchscreen, went over to a Linux laptop, and printed a sheet of counters for Lone Sherman onto 100gsm paper using the rear tray. Easy-peasy, no drivers, no special software, nothing.Print quality was good. Didn't blow me away, but I wasn't doing a photo or anything really impressive, so time will tell there. Did not test the scanning feature, might update the review when I do. Have some heavier 297gsm paper and some transparencies I want to try as well.One thing to note: the rear feed tray sticks up like a turkey's tail. This isn't all that problematic, but since I have this on a shelf in a wall unit, it means I will have to remove the shelf above it in order to use the rear feed conveniently. The photos show this, but I didn't fully appreciate that we're talking an extra 12" or so of height needed at the rear side of the printer.UPDATE: Assigned a fixed IP to the printer on the wireless router. Added a bjnp:// entry for that IP to /etc/sane.d/pixma.conf (though it turned out that was unnecessary - a second Linux computer without that change also worked) and fired up simple-scan. Scanned like a champ.Generated an SVG file programmatically with size and viewport set to 8.5in x 11.5in, printed it to PDF using Inkscape. Used the system document viewer (eVince) to preview and print the SVG file onto a US letter transparency loaded face-down (important!) into the standard paper tray. Again, worked like a champ, no fuss no muss.Very impressed, this thing just works. Ignore all of Canon's cloud/web-services stuff and you've got yourself a great networked printer-scanner that can handle cardboard and non-paper media.

We already have a Brother printer that's a workhorse for home office needs but I bought this printer specifically to print coloring and activity pages for my kids' birthday parties on heavier weight paper that the Brother can't handle - haven't used it for anything other than that yet. Set up was frustrating, I couldn't figure out how to do it wirelessly (and I'm not bad at all at doing wireless setup on other printing devices or electronic devices in general) and when someone's review stated they also had the same issue but then was able to set up using the printer cord, I was able to do it that way as well, but had to purchase a compatible cord because the printer didn't come with one.As for the printing itself, I was very happy with it! I wanted thicker paper that kids could use watercolor paints on and not have the paper warp. I wasn't able to use actual watercolor paper because I couldn't find anything under 75lb weight that was letter sized but chose 65lb cardstock and hoped for the best. The ink held up to the watercolor paint pretty well, with minimal fading/bleeding from the liquid, which was my main concern. The printer is a little slow, but as long as you're not in a hurry it's not a big deal. I'm extremely satisfied with this purchase and am excited to use more features.
