It's an inkjet printer so the inks run dry eventually. I have had difficulties connecting this printer to my computer through Wi-Fi, so i have to use the USB cord, which is inconvenient. Otherwise, its a good printer. Prints well :) It's an inkjet printer so the inks run dry eventually.

⭐ Canon PIXMA iX6860 Review ⭐ After years of reliable use, I replaced my old printer with the exact same model—a Canon PIXMA iX6860. That alone should tell you something: this printer delivers. The print quality is consistently sharp and professional, and it handles a range of paper sizes with ease, which is great for both everyday use and the occasional project that needs a bit more polish.

That alone should tell you something: this printer delivers.

🔧 Setup Caveats (Wi-Fi users, take note!) Here’s where things get tricky. The setup process—especially for Wi-Fi—is not the printer’s strong point. The included instructions are confusing and borderline useless unless you’re using the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) function. If you do have a WPS-capable router, you’re in luck—the setup becomes a breeze and everything connects like magic.

However, if you're trying to follow the alternate connection steps provided in the manual or in app prompts, be prepared for frustration. Most people will end up giving up and using a good old USB cable. Honestly, it’s faster to Google “WPS button on [your router brand]” than struggle through the printer's instructions.

✔️ Pro Tip: Find the WPS button on your router, press it, and let the Canon do its thing. You'll be up and running in minutes.

Overall, I’m really happy with this printer—it’s a solid performer with excellent output. Just be ready to sidestep the setup snafus with a bit of DIY know-how.

I bought this printer for photographic prints. Of the ones available on the market, this particular one has the highest resolution and the prints are excellent. I couldn't be happier. The two pictures are of a photo I took in Arrowtown a couple of weeks ago and a heat transfer print on a t-shirt. I bought this printer for photographic prints.

Perhaps I'm wearing blinkers but I've used Canon printers for the last 25 years. I needed a reasonable quality A3 printer and this one was at an attractive price. Wireless setup was easy and the speed and quality have been excellent. I've only been using it for a few weeks so it's too new to see how long the ink lasts. Overall very happy.

I too couldn't get the WiFi set up to work but USB is fine.

A good printer for A3 size posters. I have used it for many reasons and have not been disappointed yet.

I once had an issue with the heads, and all I did was clean them and all is well again.
I use this printer weekly printing out many sheets of paper for work. I too couldn't get the WiFi set up to work but USB is fine.

Good simple printer at a good price for oversize printing. Good simple printer at a good price for oversize printing.
