Review on Canon PIXMA TR4520: Black Wireless All-in-One Photo Printer with Mobile Printing & Alexa Compatibility by Travis Karren

I hope this review will help you a little in your search! So I bought this printer because I was looking for a cheap printer that I can still use for my craft business. And when I was looking for good DIY printers that were also compatible with Cricut, this one had some pretty good recommendations. I'll post my pros and cons! First cons because people usually want to know all the bad stuff that isn't advertised on Revain lol. CONS: I've had this printer for 5 days but have used it decently so I can tell you a lot about it. If you plan to use this printer for art or photos, I would definitely not recommend this printer.1. With plain paper, matte sticker paper, and glossy sticker paper, whether plain paper or vinyl, it definitely jams every second or third try on average. If you're a crafter like me then you know how expensive quality sticker paper is for a pack of 10 sheets! Along with how often you need to use the printer. Lol and it completely messes up the sheet that is stuck. I have to constantly adjust the tray to make sure it's straight and sometimes hold the paper at a certain angle to keep it from getting stuck. 2. It has pretty bad streaks, in 5 days I ran the ink head cleaning cycle twice with no success. I bought 4 different brands of sticker paper and read the reviews for the recommended ink that I bought. No luck with other material so I'm guessing it's just the printer quality.3. Colors are not bright. I use art software to create my products and have found that I need to fully adjust the saturation after the design is complete to get a NORMAL (non-faded) decal. And even then the colors aren't that bright. (I bought the recommended ink and didn't go the cheap route) This is the CON if you're looking for something to print photos with. 4. It has been 5 days and my printer says it is low on ink. Being a craft business, I understand that I use the printer a lot more than the average person, but I expected this ink to last at least 2-3 weeks. And I even bought an XL cartridge. Cleaning some printers wastes ink and due to streaks on the printouts I had to try to run a cleaning cycle. Of course, mascara isn't cheap either. If the printer hasn't pinched or wasted ink on the jammed sheet, or has smeared or smeared products that need to be reprinted, the ink might last longer, but I'm not sure. These are pretty serious problems in doing business. ADVANTAGES: 1. This printer has many cool features2. This printer is easy to set up3. This printer automatically connects to Wi-Fi and my Cricut and rarely has any printing lag when I press print (since it's Cricut compatible)4. For a very affordable price, this is a great office printer. For those who need scanning, Wi-Fi reliability, easy setup, low running costs, and general document printing, this printer might be for you.5. Prints quickly, without delays and problems with finding a printer on your phone. My bfs printer takes 5-6 tries for my phone to even find the printer in the print option. Maybe a bad connection. I regret all the wasted money I put into buying a cheaper printer to save money because in the long run with the ink and paper I had to replace it was like another $200 lol. I bought a $500 photo quality printer that has good reviews and am awaiting shipping but have decided to keep this anyway as a backup in case other inks aren't stocked at Revain or just for a shipping label wasting ink on my craft printer. I am leaving this review with no bias or anger just because in reading the previous reviews no one has mentioned any of these issues I had (or at least no one posted a review about them when I decided to buy it). , so I wanted to help anyone who finds this information more useful for their research and can make a better decision.
