CanonTS5120 Wireless All-In-One Printer with Scanner and Copier: Mobile and Tablet Printing, with Airprint(TM) and Google Cloud Print compatible, Black

This does NOT connect to mobile devices via Bluetooth. I am furious because I bought this model specifically because it says it is bluetooth enabled and is compatible with iOS devices (provided its 9.0 or higher). It will not function like this. With the non-sharing restrictions on the wireless in this printers location, bluetooth is the only option to connect this to the iPad in aforementioned location. Don't waste your time.

OK, I will update this to 3 stars because it does work well despite the reasons below I don’t like it. The main confusing thing I had setting it up was enabling the wireless network printing. HINT - There appeared in my list of printers the printer and an XPS version of the printer. You must select the XPS printer in order to send a job to it wirelessly.I'm still really disgusted by the flimsy paper tray but I will say it holds more paper than I expected but still very flimsy. Because of that cheap tray, you have to place it on a completely solid base larger than the entire footprint of the printer which I didn't have to do with the older model and also I didn't have to use the top paper feed for envelopes so I was able to use it on a book shelf. My older and cheaper Canon printer was extremely compact and I hoped for the same with this model which looked very similar. I ended up having to keep my old printer to use simply as a base to place my new printer on top of because of that flimsy paper tray which REALLY is annoying.None the less, it works well and print quality is amazing for those cheap cartridges.I had a similar older model which worked fine for my simple document printing needs and prefer having only a single color cartridge and a single black cartridge instead of constantly having to replace the 4 or 5 cartridges "high quality" photo printers require. Since my document needs are simple and I never do photo printing, these cheap cartridges do just fine printing B&W or color documents. I bought this one because it has the same small footprint as my old one, and uses the exact same cartridges which I had a bunch of which left over when the death counter ran out (read below if interested in explanation on the Canon printer death page counter).Boy was I disappointed compared to my older even cheaper Canon. Although this one weighs significantly more, the plastic parts are thinner and more flimsy. The paper tray on this one is so fragile it is a joke! I can't imagine it is not going to break sooner or later and that won't be under warranty because "I" broke it when in fact if it breaks it will be due to poor design on Canon's part. I'm going to have to handle like I'm "walking on eggshells". The paper tray also holds barely half as much paper as my old one did and envelopes must be fed from the top. One of the features I liked about the older model is that input and output including envelopes were all front load and front output so it fitted nicely on a book shelf with little headroom required. This one fails in that regard. You must feed envelopes from top so you need 8 inches headroom.As several people state it is the most flimsy, fragile, and prone to cheap plastic parts you'll ever see.About the death counter:The reason I had to replace my old printer which was working just perfectly fine is because Canon decides after a certain number of prints to make the printer unusable because the ink absorber could start overflowing after a while making a mess. This may be a good thing but I'm handy at fixing things and even though when I started getting ink absorber warnings, I thoroughly cleaned the ink absorber, and the printer was working perfectly fine it stopped dead working when the predetermined number of prints had been printed. I spent hours on the internet to learn older Canon models had a way to reset the death counter to zero so I could have at least continued using the old printer until I used up the $40+ of ink I still had on hand. No dice. With the new models you cannot reset the counter so you must throw away a perfectly functional printer and throw away your ink stock too! The Canon newer models just stop when a certain number of prints is reached with no possible way to reset the counter. You get a certain number of prints and that's it. (Think Porky Pig - That's all folks).Still after upgrading the number of stars from one to four, I am considering an Epson Eco printer next time.

I received this printer several days ago after my previous Canon Pixma died. That Canon printer was similar to this one and lasted four years and two changes of location. I did pay about $100 for that unit and selecting this one at half that price did give me pause. After reading some of the other comments I admit to some hesitation but I'm happy to say the set-up and printing went as smoothly as possible. There were a couple of situations I had read about-failure of the unit to draw paper and difficulty getting a computer to recognize the printer-so I was on the look-out for those problems particularly. Here's some observations: There are several orange pieces of tape and protective pieces of plastic that must be removed. This includes on the printer itself as well as the provided ink cartridges. And because the printer is mostly plastic it should be lifted and carried from the box by placing your hands on each side of the unit and not on the front and back. When loading the paper, don't overload it and be sure the paper guard is secured properly after loading the tray. Both issues can cause the unit to fail to draw paper. There is a booklet of instructions included as well as a download site to assist in set-up but I recommend using the included DVD if you have a DVD slot on your computer. This eliminates almost all decision-making including accessing your wireless router. In other printers I've had it was necessary to input the security key for your router which often led to difficulties and failure. No such problem exists here as it will automatically interrupt your router to secure the signal and turn it back on when completed. Before I began, I also deleted all files from my computer that were necessary for the previous printer. I can see where this set-up might have difficulty if previous files are present, particularly if you're installing a printer from the same manufacturer. Now, because I have a slow download speed, the entire set-up took more than 30 minutes and at times I found myself wondering if something had gone wrong as the set-up appeared stuck. But patience was finally rewarded as the set-up concluded. The DVD will print a test page once your set-up is complete to determine if there is printer head alignment issue. This might be another area of issue for some people although it's easy enough to run a printer head alignment test if there is a problem. I didn't experience that either. After my set-up I also was prompted by the DVD tutorial if I wanted to print from some other device-for me I wanted that option for my cellphone. That, too, was easy. I downloaded the app from Google play (I have an Android) and again, by following the prompts on my phone it connected immediately to my printer. It was necessary to pick my printer from a list on the phone as well as picking the type of paper in the printer, but those were easy. I've since printed a number of various pages and not once have I experience a paper draw problem. Certainly if you're going to print a lot of pages and if you do that frequently, then this isn't the printer for you. But if you're like me, who occasionally prints a page or a few pages, then I highly recommend this printer. Yes, the ink is expensive, and what comes with the printer isn't a lot, but at this price for a reliable good printer, go for it. Hope this helps.

The TS5120 is my first wireless printer & I wanted to retain the security and control of data provided by a wired USB connection to my main computer for most business printing, but the convenience of occasional print from my other devises wirelessly. Canon didn't make that easy. As mentioned in other reviews, setup instructions seem convoluted. Canon setup instruction manual people: You need to do the step-by-step thing for EACH possible setup scenario all the way through, and ditch the "flowchart" method your doing currently.Another reason that one star was deducted is Canon's insistence on continued contact with their servers and marketing stuff to me. One may be able to turn that off, but the default is getting the sales pitches. I would rather pay a little more for the printer & have less expensive ink and no sales pitches!The printer itself is great and has improved features from my old Canon printer, (though the control panel needs a 10-key pad). Congratulations Canon tech people and thanks for providing a good solid product! I love the automatic 2-sided printing and the convenience of wireless printing, though I'm still not comfortable with that data flying around in the ether for sensitive documents. I'd be more trusting if it wasn't talking to the Canon servers for marketing and I knew more about who has access to the data and why (beyond my own router network).

I gave it three stars because the setup was so easy and the printer is cute. However, I started printing tonight and I notice that each page it printed got duller. Also even though I set it to black and white only, the thing used up almost all of my colored ink. Very disappointed about that especially since I read that if there is no colored cartridge in the printer it won’t work (not sure how truthful that is) but then it has to be since it used up half my colored even though it was set to B&W only. Note that this was my first time using I received the item today
