The Ultimate Workhorse - Luv It!
I've owned and used this printer daily for 6 years! I'm a photographer and use it often for Client prints. NO PROBLEMS - ever! It's a tank and prints lawlessly - all sizes. Luv it.
To rebut complaints: Use only Canon ink. Connecting to anything Apple (Mac) is often glitchy.

Do not buy.
This printer barely works and uses ink super fast. I can't remember the last time I have used it without an error light. Most of the time it simply does not work. Do not buy this printer.

Expensive junk.
Constant issues with printer not recognizing ink cartridges, printer no longer works carriage pins fell off with occasional use of the printer. Wastes tons of ink as it saturates the paper. Worst printer ever, waste of money.

Detailed High Quality Photo Printer
We printed an 8.5 x 11 of the German Alps, and I thought there were black spots in the clouds. It turns out under a loupe, they were detailed birds in flight! The photo detail in incredible. We have printed many 13x19 prints framed and hung on our walls of our recent Europe trip. People were amazed at the quality of the prints. I used to develop color negatives and prin...

Years ago I developed and printed color film. This printer in incredible for the price. We have printed many 13X19 prints of our recent Europe trip, and hung them on the walls.

Does not print 11 X 14
Description says Pixma iP8720 prints up to 13 X 19 in. Does not mention that the common size print 11 X 14 is NOT available.

Quality printer throughout!
Wanted to replace my Epson 13"x19" printer after many years of great performance. Found the Canon iP8720, read the specs and reviews, and bought it about 3 months ago.
Printer was easy to set up, easy to use. I've had zero issues with mine.
Print quality has been fantastic!
Great price point for a quality printer!
Highly recommend!

A Year Old and Into the Trash.
Hot mess. Originally connected the 8720 to an ancient iMac- hard enough to set up (wirelessly), but at least it printed. Upgraded to a Mac Studio M2 Max (Sonoma 14.4) a month ago and this printer will not connect. At all. Bought this printer a bit over a year ago and this thing's off to the trash. Expensive piece of e-junk. Unsatisfied with the prints I did manage to ge...

Great resolution. Prints wirelessly and Apple AirPrint
Highest resolution Canon printer in its price range. My Canon MP970 print heads finally died, and this was the only current model comparable. . This one prints beautifully, from desktop, wirelessly from laptop, and from iPhone. But iPhone set up took me a couple of days to figure out. Download drivers from the Canon website. Then download Canon app to connect with iPho...

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY....BUY SOMETHING ELSE!!
The reviews are correct about having a very difficult time connecting to WiFi. It took hours to connect and then twice in 2 months it lost connection so I had to reinstall.....I have the fastest residential and strongest signal. It is a CANON fault software/hardware issue!!
There are NO ICC PROFILES for different paper. Some forums claim to have found some but I can...

Makes You Look Like Great Photographer!
This photo printer is amazing!! It prints the gorgeous pictures that my new iPhone12Pro takes!! It is an easy set up. The operation of the photo printer is easy breezy. I like that is has several ink cartridges and that it tells me when I need to purchase replacement ink--instead of printing the whole photo without yellow or blue :( it was worth the wait, as I complete...

This Machine is a Dream
This machine is a dream. Right out of the box, it was easy to setup and arrange, and the prints are glorious and to be cherished. I was printing, within a few minutes of setup, many of my images in different types of paper, and the results were stunning.
The setup on the computer and wi-fi was very easy for me. The computer and wi-fi read the machine very well, very...

Great printer but has a relatively short life.
This is my third Canon iP8720. They don't seem to last too long before they have problems but they print very nice photos and they print on printable CD's and DVD's.
