The print quality is excellent, as good as any of the lower Canon and Epson Pro models I've used. I print photos, posters, invitations, business cards, flyers, greeting cards, vinyl stickers, postcards, envelopes, and more with this for myself, clients, and retail products. I've used up to 140lb watercolor paper and printed branded tissue paper (on a carrier sheet of course) with no issue. I've maybe had 5 paper jams total throughout the life of this printer. I use Canon papers, HP papers, Red River papers (my favorite), and all sorts of off-brand paper, scrapbook paper, cardstock, and printable vinyl. Matte, satin, and glossy. You can even put rolls of canvas through it. This thing prints like a champ and takes whatever I've thrown at it. Keep in mind that higher-quality papers will always give you higher-quality results, no matter the printer.
If you have a color-calibrated monitor and use Canon inks with the proper settings, the color accuracy is excellent. Far better than vista print in color accuracy and quality, in my experience. As with any photo printer, using off-brand inks can and often damages the print heads, in addition to causing color accuracy issues. I get amazingly vibrant, high-color artwork prints out of this machine, the ink quality is amazing.
My cost with Canon XL carts for a one-sided, full-color 13x19 glossy highest-quality photo print (which uses the most ink) is roughly $0.009 per square inch or $2.21 per page. OfficeDepo has a great rewards program that includes giving you credit/points for recycling cartridges. I buy most of my tanks from Amazon unless OfficeDepo has a sale, but for every 10 cartridges you recycle, you can get a free XL tank.
This isn't a plug-and-play consumer printer though. It takes a few minutes to set up and you have to understand how to use a higher-quality inkjet printer. You have to use the print utility and use the settings appropriately. Almost every bad review I've seen on here is because someone didn't take the time to learn how to use it correctly. If you are tech-illiterate, this isn't the printer for you, and the same will be true for nearly any higher-quality photo printer.
Be sure you go to the Canon website and download the drivers offered there, the 8700 driver is great and has a ton of options. Make sure you are using the correct settings for the material you are printing on for the best results. If you think it's too loud, turn on the quiet mode found in the printer utility. You can also adjust the print speed through the utility as well. If you're printing documents, fast printing is fine. If you're printing photos, posters, printable vinyl, or anything ink-heavy (ESPECIALLY on glossy mediums), turn your speed down to the slowest speed for the best results.
You CAN set it up without wifi, I set mine up wired at first without issue on my old MacBook Pro. When I replaced my hardware with an iMac, I set it up via the wifi without issue. I've used it over several versions of Mac OS and iOS without issue. I've set it up on two different models of HP laptops as well over wifi without issue. I've used it over several versions of Windows now as well without issue. As with any printer, when you upgrade your operating system to a new version, you may have to redownload the drivers or uninstall and reinstall them, but again that should be understood as that's true of any higher-quality printer. If you have an obstructed wifi signal you may have issues, but that's a given. If your router doesn't have the bandwidth for all the devices using it, you'll have issues, but that's also a given. If you have issues with the wifi, you absolutely can use this printer hardwired as well, and it will print faster. If you have a large print file, you may want to consider hardwiring for that job. When I print multiple copies or multiple pages of 13x19 prints I do this.
Be sure to do proper maintenance, which means periodically running cleaning functions, running the print head alignment check, and realigning the print heads with the utility when required (the utility has an automatic function for this you just have to click run and evaluate the test result when complete). These things are true of ANY photo or art printer though. These things will greatly extend the life and quality of your equipment.
I have been happier with this printer than I ever expected, especially for this price point!
They would rather you use one of their web applications and they have a bunch of them which you can download with the driver or not. At first, I did not, then later I did, to try them out, then I deleted them all. Now I just have the driver and Easy Photo Print. And I expect most or all of my future printing will be out of PS Elements or Preview. It's kind of a dance figuring out how to configure your color management and print sizes and qualities and all that with multiple print dialogues that come up, from both your printing app and the Canon Driver. This can and should be made a lot simpler and more intuitive. There is a Canon manual, which you can download. So far, I have only skimmed it. I found an article from Red River Paper that was published right after the iP8720 was first sold that is very helpful. It's at: http://www.redrivercatalog.com/infocenter/articles/canon-pixma-ip8720-review-introduction-first-look-getting-started.html . And the Canon Support and Drivers page for this copier is a handy think to keep bookmarked: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_ip_series/pixma_ip8720#DriversAndSoftware . Oh, and I first tried to set up my printer via wi-fi to the Mac and Airport Extreme sitting right beside it but it would not install. I blew that off and used a USB connection (you have to use your own USB cord -- it's USB 3 capable, btw). But my wife, in another room, hooked up to wireless on her Mac very quickly, once I had established the connection with USB. I like USB connections to printers anyway, when they are practical.
So, anyway, there are grouses, as there always are with computer stuff but, bottom line, the pictures come out quick and they are beautiful! Not only that, the printer itself, while it takes up quite a bit of desk space, is really pretty. Well, if you like black monoliths. The ink cartridges -- very easy to install, btw -- are just "set-up" cartridges to get you addicted so you go out and buy the ridiculously expensive Canon full or extra size ones when you run out. But I see some very good reviews for knock-off printer ink for this copier, such as from Blake Printing Supply. I am inclined to give those a try.
Right before we bought this printer, we bought an Epson ET-4500, a new printer that comes with a ton of ink and was supposed to produce excellent photos. But it was an all-in-one. Hence, ugly -- and most of the money spent making it was for stuff I didn't buy it for. Maybe people in offices, knocking out a few pictures here and there, would find it adequate but I found the photos terrible -- and sent the Epson back. This Canon was it's replacement. And based on two days of use, I think I made a very good choice.
