Canon Eco-Friendly Megatank G3660 Colour Ink Tank All-in-One Printer

The PBT Canon G3660 printer description included a comment of "WIFI Windows Only" ??? but on visiting the Canon site, there were no Windows Only warnings.
Conversely, the site and the box indicated Windows and MacOS compatibility.
When queried, the PBT staff didn't know what their "WIFI Windows Only" warning was about, so I thought I would try it (I have both Mac & Windows systems).
I installed the printer (USB hardwired) on the Mac but the installation did actually "kill" my Router/Mesh Wifi system!!!
I recreated a new Wifi setup (new SSID) and then moved the hardwire connection to my Windows system. Reinstalled and that worked.

So the PBT comment was correct but it appears that neither Canon nor PBT know why it is correct.
Currently, I'm not having much success with the Mac Wifi setup. Perhaps for another day...

If you're looking for a simple home printer that you don't have to sell a kidney for inks this is it, seriously THIS IS IT. Not only is it a ink-tank printer, it includes an extra 2 Black bottles which allows you to print up to 18,000 pages! Colors are included as well for advertised up to 6000 pages each. Factor in the going price of the ink bottles at about $30-$40 NZD (PB doesnt stock them yet for whatever reason), you would be absolutely mad to buy those cheapo $50 printers which charge $40 for up to 200 pages of prints. The only negative is the Canon product experience and customer care, trying to work with this printer can be...view more If you're looking for a simple home printer that you don't have to sell a kidney for inks this is it, seriously THIS IS IT.

The only negative is the Canon product experience and customer care, trying to work with this printer can be frustrating but no more so than the cheapo one's anyways. While it doesn't print fast, it's been keeping up with our busy home and we've gone through 4 reams of paper and the tanks are still well above the halfway mark. I reckon we'll make it to the end of the year without having to buy any replacement colors, the black will last 2 years at this rate. So bite that bullet and just buy it, your sanity will thank you later.

It was quite easy to set up and in fact I was able to quickly use it to print some of my important documents It was quite easy to set up and in fact I was able to quickly use it to print some of my important documents

Easy set up, connects to all our devices with no issues, printing quality excellent for price. really good for photography printing at home. would buy again.

We have purchased a number of these printers and we're really happy with them. The new system of ink refill makes the consumables really economical. Only limitation is that double sided printing isn't an automated option - you'd have to manually turn the paper, and we found them to be more reliable connecting via cord versus wifi, but really good little unit.

I am happy with the printer so far. Setup was straightforward. Scanning and printing work fine wirelessly on Linux following this simple guide: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2020/05/canon-printer-scangear-mp-ubuntu-20-04/

I have only had it a few weeks so can't speak for its longevity, but in theory at least the cost per printed page should be very low. I am happy with the printer so far. Setup was straightforward.
