PIXMA PRO-200S Professional 13" Wireless Inkjet Photo Printer with 3.0" Color LCD Monitor, 8-Color Dye-Based Ink, Black

I’m very happy with the print quality. Prints are almost stunning. Another plus is that it is probably the quietest printer I’ve owned. My only negatives are that I wish the ink cartridges lasted a bit longer, and that print speed was a little faster. However, the cartridges are not expensive and the print quality is worth the wait. So far, I’ve printed roughly thirty 8.5”x11” borderless prints mostly on matte photo paper, and the black cartridge is more than half consumed with dark gray and one or two others not far behind This is a dye-based printer, and I’m hoping that print longevity meets my needs. I’ll be experimenting with that in the next few months. The set-up guide was a bit unclear in places, but overall, set-up was easy, including wireless connectivity. Canon’s Professional Print and Layout software is not the most polished, but it gets the job done. For me, this printer represents a nearly ideal compromise among print quality, initial cost, operating cost, and maximum print size. After a bad experience with a rival brand photo printer almost twenty years ago—early onset print quality issues followed by discontinuance of support and even cartridge sales—I wasn’t sure I’d ever buy another. But as of today, I’m wishing I hadn’t waited so long to jump back in.

Canon Pro – 200S Printer. To start with, Awesome! To begin with, this review. I had a Canon 8720 printer that would not connect to WiFi after changing servers. I conducted extensive research and ultimately decided to purchase the Canon 200S printer. When it arrived, it took approximately 40 minutes to unpack the printer and get it up and running. I did buy a USB cable before it came as insurance in case it did not connect to my new server. It had no problem connecting to the WiFi through the control panel on the printer. It found my WiFi server very quickly. I logged in with my password and began printing immediately. I thought my old Canon 8720 printer produced great photos, but this Canon 200S blows it out of the water. I have printed numerous exceptional-looking photos. I also printed an 8x10 photo of my Granddaughter and it looked better than the original photo. This Canon printer prints a little slower than my old printer, but it is printing high quality photos, which takes a little longer. The ink levels have not dropped much so far, so I hope that will be the case moving forward. I'm hoping this Canon printer lasts a long time. As stated at the start of this review, Awesome printer.

I love how my printer has been working so far, but there have been a few hiccups along the way. Definitely be prepared to be ready to navigate various errors during and after setup. At one point I had to redo the connection to my wifi/computer entirely because it would not register to my PC at all. There is also a slight learning curve as to what to put in the top feed/manual feed, though I would recommend manual feed for most things. It lets you print borderless and does not give you weird errors about margins (top feed will refuse to print if you do not set the paper size to "A4 margin" or "letter margin", etc.). Manual feed also allows you to use thicker paper and paper with special coatings on it. Also I cannot use the Professional Print and Layout program anymore, either, which is a bit disappointing because I liked how easy it was to use. Once it prints, however, it prints beautifully. I have been using paper from Red River, specifically their Polar Matte 60 and Palo Duro etching, which they recommend for the printer. All my prints so far have been vibrant and gorgeous, and nearly true to color (that is entirely on me, though, not the printer. I need to get better at making color adjustments). It prints at a decent speed, but the higher quality you want, the slower it will be. Overall would recommend this printer. I am just starting out with printing my artwork and making stickers and I am so glad I invested in this to start out with.

This thing is a beast. Used it to print photos in sizes ranging from 4x6 to 13x19 so far. It’s incredible. Best quality prints I have ever seen. Prints large, fast, high quality prints. The only downside for some would be that this thing is huge. Considerably larger than any other printer. Easy to hook to your network. Works with AirPrint. Fantastic quality if you want to work with large format prints.

Printer is sturdy and made well. My HUGE problem with this Canon Printer is CANON decided to OMIT 11x14 paper size printing. CANON tech folks said the reason was 11x14 is not a popular paper size anymore?! Since this was my favorite format, all my paper and frames are now useless... This fact causes me to reduce stars for the Pro-200S Printer Review. Very unhappy with Canon, and feel I wasted my purchase $$$ with this printer.

Bought this to replace our Epson 1430, what a good decision this was. This printer is fantastic, great photos and regular text documents. You have to change the paper type manually using the front display but other than that, easy to use.

Nice. Easy to use.

Comes with a set of ink. the photos are definitely gallery quality, prints 10k resolution photos very well. I have had zero of the stereotypical printer issues with this one in the months I've had it. The only thing is the initial setup can be a little confusing since on a Windows PC you need to download their program in order for it to connect via WiFi, but after that it has worked 100% of the time. I am in no way a professional, I take photos with a Nikon D850 of wildlife, and they come out excellent on the prints, using mainly luster paper. For me, it's honestly the only printer I'll ever need for being purely a hobbyist.
