    They have a newer model G3270. Can you give the differences? Looks like the display & 3270 labeled as "PIXMA". I'm getting this for my 98 year old grandmother & I'm torn as to which she would be able to see better. May also be moot since she'll be operating through her tablet. Could you weigh in on the wifi / remote operating capabilities? Or are there other printers altogether you recommend for the elderly?

    I'm glad these have replaceable printheads. My last printer, Epson 3750 also did not use cartridges. I didn't print for 1 month, and as a result two printheads went bad. No legit fix found after much much research. I think I'll be getting one of these pixma printers next time.

      @@lionintu Called Canon today and you can apparently only get them from their “Parts Desk,” no third party retailer nor even Canon’s online shop. I was quoted $80 for both printheads for the G3260, not bad, definitely beats buying an entirely new printer. In any case, it’s much easier if the need arises to flush the printheads out.

    Thanks for your review! I just learned about ink tank printers. My over10 year old Kodak ink jet printer/scanner is about done printing for good plus it never printed nice, so dull, embarrassing for Kodak. It also has issues now getting on my wifi, it used to work ok, and sometimes I don't print for a few months and then clearing the print heads would use half the ink up. I am done with ink jet. I looked at comparable ink jets to this and each ink is 2x the cost and probably gets 1/4 the prints out of them. I considered laser too but I want to print crafty things and photos and don't have an arm and a leg to spend to get the print quality I want. Also slightly considering PIXIMA G620 but I think this one will be ok for me.

    I have 2 questions. First it can connect to both a computer and a phone at the same time? And second, how long can it go without printing anything? Like does it have to have parts replaced if you don't use it for several months?

    • @BestPrinters
      @BestPrinters  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I thank you for your question, to answer your first question. Yes, you can be connected to a computer and a phone at the same time to answer your second question I would not go more than two weeks without printing, one month max you just run the risk of the ink system, getting clogged and dried up, if you review my channel the majority of the videos I put out or repair videos dealing with this very issue. Excellent questions. Thank you once again.

So I set up the printer added the ink and some how it’s printing color but I did not add color just the purple stencil ink. I called support and the guy told me that there is no ink in the print heads so it shouldn’t be printing color so now I’m very confused where the color is coming from and why it’s not printing with my purple stencil ink.
