Practical printer focused on printing only
It is quite practical in a sense of newly introduced filling the cartridges with the ink bottle. Filling doesn't take great care and simple. Then for this particular model G5020, it is meant to use only for printing purpose, any kind with relatively good printing quality and speed. But personally I see it better use for text based printing. From setting up aspect, it took about 10 min from out of box process to between filling cartridge and setting wifi, and test print page. Then once setup, it become available for print option in another device like notebook connected to same network. What is feels bit downside that doesn't make perfect are: 1. Setting WiFi require user to download app on you phone/tablet. It has the kind of setting used by Internet of Things devices for smart home. Previous model would have ability to setup directly from the printer. So, one more app. 2. Its size and esthetic is literally big black box, and material is not shiny plastic as would be in other line of Canon printers. 3. Price of bottle for refill personally seems bit not aligned with the idea of saving as colored bottle cost $12, times three color makes $36; for black ink refill bottle is $18. That spending around $54 + tax. Although Canon states "...an ink savings of $1,175 Print up to 6,000 black text pages or up to 7,700 vivid color pages..", then unless user has to refill around twice a year, doesn't feel to add up in economically. Naturally this calc will depend on each use case and respective point of view. 4. Printer has a display, that is tiny and hard to ready. It looks like reuse of matrix printer of early days of printer history. It displays icon for WiFI connective, and status, but hard to read. Based on above description the rating being given, but still recommendable as meet its purpose in general. In the attached photo shows inside out and the bottle of ink

Working great!
I am really enjoying the Canon MegaTank G5020. I had an HP printer that took ink cartridges before. My HP had an issue with the printhead and I needed a replacement printer. I was interested in a tank printer to get away from cartridges. Canon had the best price to performance value. I have tested the printer with some photo prints and am pretty happy with the quality. I really like the ink because it holds up under my skin oils. I have had issues with photo prints spearing due to touching the ink after it has dried. I hooked the printer up using Ethernet and am happy for the option.

LOVE having this much ink!
Finally -- an inkjet printer that isn't designed to rob you with outrageously priced ink supplies. It was actually a pleasure to pour in the ink and watch the tanks fill up, knowing how much more ink is in there than the puny, sponge-filled cartridges every non-tank inkjet uses. And the clear tanks allow you to see how much ink you really have left instead of relying on an approximation that cartridge-based printers use and often get wrong. The text is crisp and dark. The photos are vivid. The speed is excellent. It has a generous paper capacity. Canon includes TWO extra huge bottles of black ink, which is enough for 12,000 pages of black text (according to Canon). I'm very impressed they included that. Overall, I am super-pleased with this printer. I no longer have to cross my fingers that my ink won't run out when I print another photo. Negatives: The setup documentation asks you to go through all sorts of hoops. I ignored that and instead just used the printer's front panel to select my Wi-Fi network and entered the password. After that, both my Mac and my PC saw the printer and loaded the necessary drivers. This also avoided loading a bunch of unnecessary Canon software that going to their website, per the instructions, would install, and greatly simplified an otherwise complicated setup. The LCD has no backlight, so it's hard to read unless the printer is sitting in a really well-lit area. This is pretty minor, though, since after installation, you really don't need to look at the LCD for much.

Canon Pixma- Go for it!
It's almost been a year since I bought this printer, and I have not had to fill it up with ink yet. I don't print all the time, but I do use it occasionally to print personal planners. Be aware that it does print extremely slow and sometimes mixes up the front tray with the rear tray. The only complaint I have is that it needs a light on the front screen but otherwise its a great printer!

Say goodbye to expensive ink cartridges!
I was tired of running out of ink so quickly with every printer I've own, even though I would purchase the XL tanks. Refills were expensive, manually refilling tanks was messy. We would run out of ink with no warnings which was super inconvenient. I wanted to try out this PIXMA MegaTank because of the large ink capacity and the fact that I could view the actual ink tank levels from outside of the machine. Initial ink fill was very easy. We even got extra ink with our purchase. It's been over a year and we haven't needed to refill any colors yet. Prints come out clear and vivid and zero smudging. I love the 2 paper trays. Initially I didn't see the point but I realized that I can keep specialty paper in one tray and regular paper in the other tray at all times and never need to switch back and forth. It is easy to select which tray you want to print from on your print selection screen-same place you select quantity and quality. Currently I keep our really nice 24# paper in one tray and we are using the other tray for our old paper stock that isn't as good as quality. So if something is being printed that isn't important like our grocery shopping list or coupon, then I select the tray with the lesser quality paper. We have only had one paper jam, not sure what caused it. On every printer I've ever owned frequent jams were a part of life. Not so on this PIXMA. We have a few cons with this PIXMA. It's expensive. And after having it for over a year I don't feel like it justifies the price it sells for. Wait for a good sale. The display is very hard to read. It is not backlit. I was not aware of this, all of my previous printers had a backlit display and especially as this was a newer machine I just assumed it would also be. The angle the screen is at makes it very difficult to read unless you are at eye level. Again, being a newer and expensive machine I would expect they have had the display be tilt-able as my older machines had been. Our original placement of this printer had been on a low shelf on our desk. We had to sit on the floor and use a flashlight to read the screen. We've since moved it to our kitchen counter, it's higher up and in a brightly lit room. Setting this printer up to our network was a nightmare. We could not get it to connect. The instructions did not mesh with the prompts we would get. Canon tech support was not able to get it connected, even with workarounds. Eventually I found that I could print with my phone using Apple AirPrint. That meant that everyone needed to email their documents from their computers to my phone, very inconvenient. Or they could bring the printer to their rooms and wire it to their desktop when they needed to print. Even then it didn't always work. I had a tech guy at my house installing a new router and mesh units and he unsuccessfully spent about 30 minutes trying to get this printer on our network. Several months after getting this printer I worked with Canon support again, still no go. They said it must be a problem with my network. Even though we could get our old Canon PIXMA online to work wirelessly. Then I got a Mac and found that I could use Apple's AirPrint and there was a Mac printer setting allowing me to share the printer on my network!! So if any of you run into the problem I had and you have an Apple computer try going into settings, printers and scanners. Select the printer and then check the box to share this printer on the network. Then go into sharing preferences and make sure that printer sharing is checked and the PIXMA printer is selected. Under users select everyone and set it to can print. Hopefully that will work for you also. A bonus of doing it this way is that if you have a visitor over and they connect to your wifi they will be able to print.

Good printer
Good printer for the price I paid. Easy to set-up. Prints nicely. Love how it has automatic double sided print. Only downfall is pictures have to be pri ted through top feeder.

Awesome printer, easy to set up!
When looking into getting a print that uses ink bottles instead of cartridges, I was nervous. I assumed that this printer would be a major hassle setting up and that the ink itself would probably be difficult to manage and get all over the place. I was, thankfully, totally wrong! The included manual is super easy to follow and each step of the setup was super smooth. The ink bottles and the printer have a way of interfacing where the ink does not begin pouring out of the bottle until the spout of the bottle is fully locked and pushed down onto the printer fully. The WIFI connection using the Canon download from their website made setup really easy too. Further more, this printer prints quickly and with the extra included TWO black ink bottles, I am dubious as to when I will next need a refill of ink for this printer. Overall, for someone who needs a straight up printer without scanning abilities and just needs to print lots of quality documents, fast, and in color when needed, I would say a printer like this takes the cake. Definitely 5 stars!
