The Canon G3070 is hands down the most frustrating printer I have ever owned. I purchased it expecting a reliable machine for everyday documents and shipping labels, but it has been nothing but a headache. If I leave it idle for more than three days, it takes approximately 15 minutes to cycle through its startup and maintenance process. After waiting all that time, the paper continuously jams. I clear the jam, try again, and end up dealing with the same issue. I am usually the person who reads negative reviews and thinks, “This sounds like operator error.” I can promise you, that is not the case here. I have owned this printer for less than two months and have worked on it countless times trying to get it to function properly. I have followed the troubleshooting steps, cleared jams, and spent far more time dealing with problems than actually printing. It is ridiculous that printing a single sheet of paper can turn into such a time-consuming ordeal. A printer should be able to sit unused for a few days and then print without requiring a maintenance marathon. I am extremely disappointed with the quality and reliability of this product. I would not recommend it to anyone who needs a dependable printer, and I will not be purchasing another Canon printer after this experience.

Stopped working after 2 weeks. I printed 58 black and white pages. Returned
ive had for months, I do a variety of projects. All of my prints with black ink on glossy or Matte paper began to have a running purple outline, ive changed paper bands, and it wasn't as bad. I wouldn't recommend as it's very inconvenient. if you aren't doing a variety of projects Id say its decent
I was so excited for my next throw away printer not to run out of ink after a hundred or less black and white low quality pages. My last 5 printers use colored and black ink so fast. The mega tank was a great idea! however the printer doesn't "want" to connect to any of my devices. When I print (about 20 pages a week in my small office) it takes 10 to 20 minutes. no spinning circle, no "printing in progress", nothing. I turn it off and on daily. Scanning is easier to drive to a print shop, or drop off a copy. That is one thing it does well on command- copying a black and white page. I have tried everything suggested on all the other posts trying to keep this thing connected. I give up.
This is the second Canon Megatank printer we purchased. Happy with both of them. Efficient use of ink, very high quality prints (plain paper or photo paper. Easy to use and easy to set up. footprint on the table is excellent.
G3270 Mega Tank. Only had this printer for two weeks. When I first set it up I was able to print from my computer. I've battled with it and am very frustrated. I wanted a printer that would print as is and it doesn't. Color images from the start have been weak and not satisfactory. I'm a Professional Photographer and expect better and easier from Canon. All of my cameras are Canon.
Purchased this printer in December of 2024. I just gave the thing away for free because it virtually never worked. It worked alright until I have to change my WiFi password, then I was never able to get the thing to work consistently again, even when I tried to hardwire it to my PC. The printer was connected to the WiFi after that but simply would not ever print anything. The queue would have the jobs in it but the printer would never respond. I printed probably about 100 pages with the printer and in that time spent about 10-12 hours of troubleshooting, diagnosing and contacting Canon to no avail.
Aggravating. This was suppose to be better than the Cannon Pixima 3260. I have no idea Why it was discontinued. when the color accuracy doesnt match.
The bonus is that Canon service is the best in the field. A larger screen for messages would have been worth a few more bucks.
PIXMA G3270 ALL IN ONE PRINTER I am happy with this printer except for the print after scan feature. Having to save the scan to a file on the computer to be able to print. With my old Canon printer I could scan and print without involving the computer.
