After my old Epson printer gave up the ghost, had quickly a new printer using the USB connection option. Unfortunately there are no simple printer anymore, so I had to resort to the multi-printer-trend. After extensive reading the reviews and div. Other Internet information I opted for the MG5350. Unlike a Vorrezensent who praised the installation "in 5 minutes," I was doing a slightly different experience. "Getting started" for the installation exactly as prescribed in German goes by just one hour. The transport packaging is first class, as used by Canon. The printer is technically a dream. Copy without a PC just works with push buttons on the printer, both "black" and in color. The color screen is great. The printer is very fast. I have an offer from Amazon assumed in the original inks against foreign cartridges were replaced and furthermore, a USB cable is included in the delivery. I want to quickly print and retain but also the follow-up costs for ink in the eye. With the foreign inks earnings for simple office prints, Internet printouts, printing of manuals and the like is very good. Photo prints are rarely desired by me, therefore secondary. The detection means of installation CD on Vista went smoothly, according to the Technical Information sheet of printer for XP, Vista and Windows 7 is suitable. Windows 8 driver must be downloaded from the Internet on the manufacturing side. The printer is very quiet when printing. 20 Watt power consumption, 2.9 watts in standby. Only the piano finish is a bit disturbing, to truly see every fingerprint. Everything else will show the long-term test.
