I love this printer! The only problem is I cannot get it connected to wifi but otherwise great! I have already printed hundreds of pages and am very happy .

As you are probably well aware, printer USB cables are no longer supplied with new printers.  However, if you are going the WiFi route then you really do not need one.  I on the other hand install my printers via my WiFi router as a Network printer so everyone using a wireless device connected to the Network has capability of printing to the printer.  The problem I have run into is that the printer is located downstairs while the WiFi router is upstairs.  This means I have to run the printer USB cable from one floor through the other.

This is where the Boytond ST Series 25 feet  Printer Cable comes in.  The one I previously had connected was too short  and I was limited on moving where the printer was located.  However with 25 feet I am able to move it across the room now if I want.  The extra length does no add lag time and the printer works flawlessly.

If you want a wireless printer look elsewhere.  This printer, along with our Epson xp-830, WILL NOT stay connected to our wifi and therefore we cannot use it wirelessly. We are constantly getting error messages when we try to print that says Communication Error with Printer.  We have placed a couple calls to Epson technicians and searched the internet and Epson's website for help with this issue.  The Epson company solution is to delete the printer in System Preferences, shut down the printer, your computer and your router and then power them all back up and then add back the printer via System Preferences.  We literally have to cycle through this process 9 out of 10 times we want to print.  No kidding.  So...if you want a wireless printer, this one is "wireless" only because Epson markets it that way, not because it actually works wirelessly.  Save yourself hours of frustration and buy another brand.

Out of the box it ddnt work. I have used Epson, HP, and Canon printers for the past 15 years and never had i have had one NOT WORK OUT OF THE BOX.
WiFi, follwed their instructions, DOESNT WORK. Printing, the only function of the machine, DOESNT PRINT! shouldnt matter if i am on a mac or not.

AVOID this printer.

I so regret purchasing it...

It looks like a great printer. I think it would have worked great in our environment, but it could not stay online via wifi. We had to restart it every time we wanted to scan or print. The printer said it was online, connected via wifi, but none of our devices could even ping it. We found reviews that said they were having the same problem. Tech support said we needed to create a TCP/IP port to fix the problem, but that didn't work. Firmware was confirmed up to date. Then they said we needed it 15' from our access point (instead of the current 25' clear line of sight) and surge suppressors can cause issues. Final solution was that we needed a Ethernet connection - no other solution available. That would have been a costly solution. They really didn't seem to think this was a big issue. We finally decided to return the printer and look for another solution. We generally have had a great experience with Brother printers, but this one isn't working for us at all.

I was severely disappointed to find that this printer is, as my headline clearly states, not wireless. I suppose I really haven't lost anything by having this printer as my previous one was also not wireless, but it clearly states on the sales page that it *is*, and I will admit to a certain culpability in not reading the reviews that said it wasn't wireless, more fool me.

Also, while compact, this thing is not small - it's rather large, so make sure you have the real estate for this thing.

Finally, it's actually pretty loud and doesn't print quite as fast as I would have thought a more modern printer would.

The takeaway form this is, read the reviews, both good and bad, and make an informed decision, unlike myself. =\

Update:
The printer prints beautifully!
Months later and the starter toner is still going.
Not sure how long it will last and I only print a few pages a week.
It also does well as a label printer, just make sure to set the paper quality to "Labels" in your computer printing settings, otherwise the ink will peal off, so that step is a must!

So, the set up was a nightmare, read below.
I resorted to using it in "wired" mode until I am in the mood to fool around more.

At first I tried it with a friend's computer when I was out of a computer.
I managed to get it to print via an iMac wirelessly. I even was able to set up my iPad to print.
But at home, now using a laptop, I have to plug it in via a USB connection in order to print.
The iPad options are so limited! First it was so difficult to pair, needed a computer for that.
Then the apps are not ready to handle such a messy relationship and all look like they were made when the internet was first created.
I am tech savvy and I had a difficult time.  I've seen reviews about set-up problems and never thought I would complain.
It's just so backwards. Please please please Canon fix this please! Bring the wireless connection to 2016!
For now, I will enjoy this printer wired.

Will update once I will be in need of a toner.

Original Review:

This printer is advertised as wireless, compatible with iPhone and iPad, but AirPrint does not see it.  So far no print apps including Canon can print directly from an iPad. It is a problem as I do not have a mac/computer at this moment and needed a printer that would work directly with mobile devices. Now it will sit useless until I can try it with a computer and then maybe, one day, I can try the iPad again? I was hoping this
one was ahead of the rest, but it is not AirPrint ready.

I have been very happy with HP printers in the past, so it was a no brainer to upgrade to a wireless network printer made by them.  The print quality is good...when the printer is working.  I blame the software/drivers.  First of all, to add the printer to the wireless network you need to connect with the USB first to assign an IP address.  Then make sure you go into your router and assign a static IP to whatever you setup through the USB connection (HP doesn't mention this in the instructions).  Why the printer can't connect to the network like every other wireless device (as in self-connecting to the network and obtaining an IP address)--I don't know.

Then try scanning. You need to launch the HP toolbox to do this. Click on the icon in the system tray, then move onto something else. About 10 minutes later the application will finally start--and then it has communication problems with the printer.

I honestly don't know what HP was thinking. The printer would probably be fine if the software worked.  I've never encountered software problems this bad before, so I'm honestly just dumfounded by how HP could let this release make it to the public.

Most printers are bad, but HP is awful.  In particular, you will be buying an endless supply of toner, only to be forced to print full color test pages then align correctly before you can print again.  Wi-Fi printing function was gone within weeks.  Really poor.  Would love opinions on a non-HP printer to go with.

This is a great little printer. I have it connected to my network via ethernet cable. Since my WiFi router is in my basement and my office in on the second floor, the printer could not locate the wireless network; but my desktop computer found it no problem (maybe it found it through the ethernet network, not sure). When I printed my first page, it was out in about 1 second. I'm used to an ink jet printer which is much slower. I chose this printer because it had ethernet and WiFi capabilities, the printer cartridge is relatively inexpensive (around $50), and it was on sale. I am happen with my choice. It does what I need.

Great little printer. I did have the issue with the WiFI failing. I updated the firmware and made some changes to the settings. It's been two weeks now, no further failures. So far so good. 4 stars due to this wifi failure junk.

Firmware came out 6/22/17 in case you looked and didn't see any updates prior.

The printer is perfect, but it does need a USB cable to be able to use it, and it does not come with the printer.

Will not connect or print over wifi. First call to tech support was not able to fix. The girl said she would have her boss call. Waited two weeks, no call. Now I can not get anyone to answer the phone.

got the printer at Sams.  am ready to throw it out the window.  Have is set up on wireless to my airport router.  sometimes it prints and them others it does not.  have it set up on one of the two Mac pros we have and just will not work.  Had an HP that died a couple of weeks ago and I should have learned a lesson from that.

The printer does not automatically start when you send something to from a wi-fi connected computer (as advertised).  You have to turn the printer on and then send.
