An absolute godsend! All my colors turn out great AND it works on a variety of materials- I've only just started playing around with it, but I'm really excited to test out some inkjet shrink film I ordered! Plus, it's great for making prints- I'm a digital artist, so I wanted to make sure I invested in a printer that could make my work shine, and this does the trick! My only complaint thus far has to do with how much desk space it eats up, but that's a me problem for sure- a bit of reorganizing should do the trick.

I love my Canon-Pixma iX6850. Initially I was concerned about the size but the quality of my prints made it all worth the purchase. This printer is high demand in the t-shirt industry for (beginners). Ease of use four stars as I normally have to ensure that the paper is place in tray correctly prior to printing.

 I bought a cricket machine that has all kinds of materials and printing out, decals onto vinyl or whatever type of printable material do they have. I’ll look at me printers all of them. Had one problem you get what you pay, for I considered a machine that was under $100 I guess it would work out really well but the print difference between $100 model and this model, I paid a little over 300 for  has very true to life colors. I compare the print to a actual photograph and obviously there’s no difference. I can pair the quality of the print with a picture I had on my computer, the print quality matched or exceeded the picture quality I  taken into account the fact that if your monitor doesn’t have a very good stream, the pictures are slightly off by colors because of the quality of your monitor  multicolored ink cartridges have enough texture and variance to make the pictures look so vibrant. I am reluctantly purchase this and now after I’ve used it for a month I don’t think I can get a bigger printer. I’ve been seeing some printers my friend has he paid $800 right painter I showed him one of my pictures that came out of my printer and I told him it came out of my canon and he couldn’t believe me so we tested it in the comparison was very close

Hubby got this for me & I must say: It's totally awesome! Larger than what you'll expect solid unit, that promises to be the workhorse I need! Used twice now & performed flawlessly. Fingers crossed I don't burn this one up like all the cheap predecessors.

Melissa, the department manager (amazing, knowledgeable, upbeat), showed us photos made with the printer and we were very impressed. I bought one for my office at school and liked it so much, we went back and bought another one for home use!

This printer is so good that it is difficult to know where to begin my accolades. It is a lot smaller than I expected, even a lot shorter in height than standard printers. Of course, its footprint is larger than a regular printer, but not by much. It is mainly a little wider than a regular printer. I'm really impressed how diminutive it appears. Canon's engineers did an excellent design job on this printer.
Setup was very easy. I used the WPS button on my wireless router and it linked almost instantly. At first I thought it must not have worked because it happened so quickly. I did not connect it via a USB cable. I'm not much of a fan of the junky L shaped desktop icon - uses up a lot of space with several icons of dubious value. I may delete it later.
You are limited to only one paper size at a time, but that's not such a big deal considering the range of print sizes you can create. I printed a 4X6 inch print, an 8.5X11 and 13X19 inch prints. That's pretty much the spectrum of what you would normally print. It is a surprisingly fast printer. It isn't an all-in-one printer; it's just a printer - no scanner, no fax and no copy capability.
I realize this is advertised to only be a business printer insinuating its photo capabilities to be perhaps at best average. But I still wanted to determine the limitations of its photo printing capability. I already own a Canon Pro-100 and the Canon Pro-9000 Mark II printer that print 13X19 photo prints, so I wasn't expecting this 5 ink printer's photo capability to be in the same league. And in some cases it isn't - it's even better than my two other photo printers for richness of colors. That doesn't mean it faithfully reproduces the original image, but it does produce very pleasing photos where fine color accuracy isn't a terribly important objective. Paper type makes a huge difference no matter which printer you are using. The paper is as important as the ink in many situations.
I really didn't want to print several duplicate 13X19 prints, but that was the only way to do a direct and fair comparison. As you would expect, the Pro-100 is clearly much better for faithful reproductions of portraits of people where skin tone and texture matter - especially on a large 13X19 inch print. However, if you didn't have a direct comparison print from a Canon Pro-100, you would still say that's a really good print. I printed several prints of scenery and historical buildings and I thought this office printer's prints actually looked better than the Canon Pro-100 printer in terms of color saturation and richness of color.

I really like the quality of color and how you are able to print on so many different types of paper. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it was hard to get connected wirelessly to my laptop and the instructions were not very clear nor helpful in that regard. The price is very reasonable for what you get.

This canon printer works perfectly!! As graphic design artists, we have gone through a whole lot of printers through the years. This wide format Canon Pixma gives us BEAUTIFUL, high quality 13 x 19 prints!
Best Buy found us a deal on it, and the shipping was extremely fast! Excellent purchase!

Awesome! Printer works great. A few kinks. For instance, it doesn’t have letter size 11x 17, unless you’re use it through the computer. But on your phone app. You’re gonna struggle. Also, connection issues. Wi-Fi is ridiculously Bad. But perfect for when you connected directly to your computer, which is suitable for this.
