I have this multifunction device is not really anything to complain about, because I bought it for grad mal 75 here on Amazon and it does what it is supposed schlichteweg. However, there are things that you can get much better for grad mal 10.
I was attracted by the multi-bypass tray for scanning and copying, also the fax option (eventually). What can I say, it's a device that no longer really fits into our present time. The price comes defentiv no accident.
The wireless device designed as a result of the ancient displays bit cumbersome, I can not well be described as a big problem, but I needed a manual ...
It's just all very confusing! I followed the instructions and the software was still kind of surprised ... Manual WPA2-input only into submenus, which can not really take into consideration. Perhaps also because of the small displays ... The wireless device is in any case even without a CD and USB cable ... somehow in a submenu, after having launched a recognition that fails, where you just go in this sub-menu ... Each case I came across it so ... Once eingereichtet he holds the WLAN connection via WPA2 very stable!
The pressure
I have long no longer achieved such poor results in text printing! Yes, there is a "Printer", but the black level of the text is rather anthracite. Even on the highest quality ... Sorry that's really better, because there are so modern cartridges with integrated print heads ...
The color and photo print, however, is the price range as "good" to evaluate, because I can not complain (because of the price). INFO: streak-free photo printing (show fast times grandma) on plain paper is only available in the highest quality. In standard there are stripes here. To print a high quality, the paper is wet, ie it may wrinkle. So it must be of a high ink consumption.
Duplex printing is not possible. Despite the multi-feeder, duplex printing is lacking! This is quite unusual because MFPs usually have a duplex printing, but no multi-feed. Do they then multifeed, duplex printing is self-evident. Not with this device. (Well ... price category)
Scanning
The scan is done via the multi-feed in 300 dpi and the flatbed in 600 DPI ...
I have scanned only a document with 3 pages, this worked perfectly and quickly, the 3 sides were here automatically saved in a PDF document. This PDF meets my requirements (300 dpi).
Photo Scan I have not tested.
Conclusion
The multifunction device is enough for home use. Applications I would not print so because of poor text pressure.
Nice for people to send multiple pages in one go to eg offices or health insurance (scan), but can verszichten a duplexing. Somehow it seems to me as if Canon here a device sold, which in 2013 first came on the market, but not heard back from the decor was 5 years. In addition, I really do not know how to classify the text printing ...
I will return the printer because it just does not meet my personal requirements. But it's not a bad printer! But I also was able to evaluate not only by price, that would not be fair to the printers that cost only 10 more and deliver a significantly better print image.
PS According to a great website for printer ink are available for any counterfeit cartridges MX-series, because they need a level indicator because the fax feature, which is not available for counterfeit cartridges ... watch out for counterfeit cartridges are displayed first, the hook is then in the red box)
