Customer Ratings & Reviews

I hated the business model of cheap printers but expensive inks for years and started refilling my own ink which is frustrating and ended up using laser printers. Im using a black and white laser printers for years and a 2nd Canon colored laser printer but is also has expensive toner, cannot print borderless and has is only good for graphics and text and not photos. These forms of printers are emerging where refillable tanks are now the primary reason for these line of printers. They are sold in high prices but will turn to save moderate to heavy users in the long run as these inks are getting sold in volumes that can print 5000+ pages before refill. These printers have their counterpart selling in less than $100 with ink cartridges. I have decided to buy a printer like this to support these types of printers and hope that the industry goes into this direction. Talking about their worth, my take is that these types of printers are low end printers ranging from poor quality, poor speed (im talking about tank ink printers in general) but Canon truly delivered. I tried other brands twice but they lack what I truly need on printer. Considering their high price, I think they should be packed with features but they do not. One major use for me is to be able to print with 3.5 index cards. The software supports it but the input of paper can only shrink to 4 inches width and all my prints where crooked. They lack a 2nd tray so I don’t have to remove the letter paper all the time. Also for a printer that is designed for longevity, I believe the print head should be serviceable or replaceable. These needs brought me to Canon g6020. I bought it at a local electronics store. Setup wasn’t any different from other refillable tank printers. Canon now have the newer line of ink bottles making refilling without any mess. No drops of ink anywhere versus older model. Where it lacks is that Epson has a sort of key on every color so that the wrong color cannot be inserted and won’t mess your printer. Canon has a lock on the tubes that delivers the ink to the printhead incase that the printer will be moved. Installation of printheads are easy and has a step-by-step picture guide. Turn it on and give in 15-30 minutes to prime, connect to your wifi/usb and you are now able to print. Pros Canon advertised that this could print 6000 black pages and 7700 color pages. So far I think these claims are true. Quality of photos are better with more vivid color ( im not a pro so this is subjective) Can print borderless 4x6 up to letter and A4. Legal size not included and I don’t understand why not. Not an issue with me. Has automatic duplex printing for almost any size. Tried letter size so far and works perfectly. Paper Cassette. 250 max and can take 150 more on the rear tray. Small footprint, enough for me. Software for scanning is easy to use. Can print more than your average entry level laser printer. Cons At this price point, other brands have an automatic document feeder for scanning multiple pages and doing multiple copies. No fax capability It has this annoying rear tray cover that is used to stabilize the paper inserted and must always be propped down or else the printer wont print. Has limited options for borderless printing but has commonly used photo paper sizes. Does not support borderless legal size. Future improvements I want to see the same printer with more colors. At least with black dye for photo printing or an added gray. Borderless envelope printing Still hoping that once this pattern is established, that more companies will follow this business model.

The G6020 Canon Printer was straight forward to set up. Air printing was successful. Print quality was satisfactory. So far, I’m very happy with this purchase. The printer would time out and turn off on its own, which was unexpected. This setting can be reconfigured in the Settings menu. The Best Buy salesperson was knowledgeable, patient and very pleasant.

This printer has been great so far. It prints with quality and the print material is always clear. Easy to refill. Great product so far.

This is an amazing printer and super efficient on ink. I’ve owned it since April 2020. It’s now September 2024 and since that time I have only used 1 bottle of each color and 2.5 bottles of black. I’m still on my original ink that came with the printer. This printer comes with 3 black and 1 of each color in the box. I paid $250 back then and now’s it’s at $199. I would recommend this printer to anyone since it’s a solid printer with zero issues.

Very easy to use and prints out wonderful quality pictures and pages. Very versatile

This printer was delivered by Best Buy and set up by Geek Squad agents who were awesome. Chose this printer because of efficiency of the refillable ink, much more cost effective than the replacement cartridges. Small footprint which is nice. The only thing missing in an auto feeder on top which means you have to do a single page at a time. But, in my opinion, an okay tradeoff for the better cost of usage.

It was a very easy set up. The printing speed is slower than advertised but the print quality is good. One important flaw is the fact that the control panel has no light.

Great home office workhorse printer. I’m an illustrator and I do a ton of printing for my work, as well as bulk prints of marketing materials and this printer has been able to handle everything I’ve asked of it. Setup is super easy, connected to my WiFi, computer and tablet without issue. The cartridge-less ink setup is absolutely a game changer for me. I’m so happy to not have to throw out a million plastic cartridges and that my ink lasts longer.

We decided we wanted to try one of the ink tank printers, so we looked for one that had the features we wanted, at a reasonable price. We found this Canon, it does print, copy and scan, and has auto duplex printing and Wifi direct. It has 2 paper feeds, one tray and the back feed for envelopes and odd size paper. Setup was easy, we used the included disk, followed the steps for USB connection and everything worked. Setting up wifi direct was easy, again just followed the steps and it worked. Print quality is very good. We're very pleased with it so far. The only drawbacks are the display is tiny and not backlit, so very difficult to see. Use a flashlight to see it. It is somewhat slow, but not a big deal. Overall, a very good printer.

interesting, wireless, color printer all in one. convenient, fast and quite simple. bought, installed and turned on in the children's room. now I don't worry about running out of ink in a few days. the ink supply in the printer box is enough, I think, for at least six months for my children. definitely recommend :)

My printer has been great, color prints are excellent. Over all good every day printer.

So far it has worked well. Set up was (mostly) really easy. The ink tanks were easy to fill. The hardest part was connecting to the internet. They really buried the way to connect straight to the wireless without going through their software. It is literally not in the getting started guide. But you'll need to use the set up menu, and go to Wifi set up to connect straight to your wifi. (This is the only way to use the device with chromebooks as far as I can tell.) So far other than this is has been good. But they should add the wireless only set up to their getting started guide. Also the control panel is a bit a hard to read for an old lady like myself. Here are the instructions I used: https://ij.manual.canon/ij/webmanual/Tutorial/G6000%20series/EN/TRL/Top.html

This is a great printer. Prints quickly and effortlessly. Ink tanks are easy to fill. Not frustrating like the Canon MG7520, that keeps requiring verification of paper stock type. The Canon Print phone app is pretty worthless, but Airprint works well. Haven't printed in color, photos or specialty stocks yet, but have printed from paper cassette and back feed. The G6020 set up was pretty intuitive. So far my only complaint is the didital display, black print difficuot to tead on gray screen.

This is my first canon Printer and Thus far it Prints great. Double Sided feature works Beautifully - no Jamming. Only issue is the screen in not back lit and can be hard to read.

Very good deal, quality printer with lots of ink. The only problem is I wish it had a lighted screen. Otherr than thqat it's very good. Easy set-up.

Easy-to-use Easy setup Quality product. Quality printing

I bought this over a year ago and I still have 75% ink left. This is infinitely better than my old cartridge printer. The quality is great and I used it to print all my wedding stationary on nice cardstock.

I was so tired of buying ink cartridges and they would dry up before I could print many pages, so decided to research the ink tank printers. This printer has all of the functions I needed but at a much better price than the other brands. The reviews for set-up had me a little worried, but I was able to plod my way through it after watching some of the videos. Filling the ink tanks was very easy. Printing is great! The screen is hard to see but I keep a small flashlight near.

When I first saw these types of printers with ink tanks, I said to myself "Finally!" But the stock shock always kept me from buying. I bought this on August 16 when it was on sale, i believe it was $80 off. Since that time I have printed over 300 photos ( varying sizes from 4x6 to 8x10) and only print documents in color. i cant say how much documents were printed but my wife prints something everyday. My color tanks are still half full, and my black tank is just under 3/4 full. I still can believe how much you can print on this. Image quality on my pictures are really good, but most of my source material is high resolution (4032 x 3024) and bad results came from trying to print a low res picture (like from and old camera). Setup was easy enough, didn't have any problems connecting to my network. Some may not like the LCD screen as it is not back-lit and small. however, i rarely use it, except to choose my paper type and size. Overall I am really happy with this printer and would highly recommend. Worth every penny.

I love this printer. I bought it because I make books. Notebooks and genealogy books. I do a lot of printing. This printer is great. I have never regretted buying it. It prints card stock, thicker paper and regular paper. Beautiful prints. I haven't tried photo paper but I am sure that is great too.
