Canon TS3165

Nice little printer! – I owned canon printers since I first using computers and I was never let down. This little printer is really good value for money. I purchased it for only $49 from Harvey Norman. The process of setting it up and installing the software was pretty straight forward and it connected automatically, with no issues, to my home wifi, and then easily connected to my pc and phone. I definitely recommend to purchase it, if you just want a printer for simple tasks, print few pages and/or scan. It is very reliable.

Doesnt connect to my MAC – I followed all the set up protocols and none worked. The screens and buttons are ambiguous and unclear. The instructions are not intuitive which for this day and age they should be plug and play. I have had printers for the best part of 20 years using a wide variety both in a home office setting as well as large corporate.

So far so good – Just bought this machine and have set it up and used it, already happy. Set up was normal with no hiccups, fairly straight forward with the disc and the instructions, quick at installing the software etc, was told an estimated time of 10 minutes for instillation of the drivers etc, but it was nowhere near that time it took less than 5 minutes, fairly easy to work out how to scan and print, done both a scan and print and very happy with it all, it came out exactly as I had hoped, their is a couple of button's on the machine that I am a bit confused about, but I haven't read the manual fully yet, it does connect to wifi but I haven't used that nor will I use it as I prefer to connect via cable, because to start printing remotely is just adding further confusion for me as I am not a tech head, so I just set it up for the basics of print, scan and copy.
