Canon Pixma iP4920 Premium Inkjet Photo Printer

The iP4920, glossy black with a matte-black beveled bezel, measures 8.4 by 20.7 by 15.7 inches (HWD) and weighs 12.3 pounds. It has both a 150-sheet main paper tray and a 150-sheet multipurpose tray for a generous 300-sheet total paper capacity, and a...

Good photo quality. Generous paper capacity. Prints on printable optical media

Little changed from previous model. Restricted to USB connectivity

The Canon Pixma iP4920 Premium Inkjet Photo Printer is a good choice as a budget inkjet, particularly if you're interested in printing photos.

Great Printer

I use a color calibrated monitor, and this printer matches the colors perfectly. It's low cost makes it very attractive. The only question I have is the amount of colored ink it used when mostly printing in black text.

excellent printer

The Canon PIXMA iP4920 is the best printer I have used. As a retired graphic designer, I do a lot of volunteer work that requires a lot of color printing. This printer always prints beautifully and is very reliable. It is easy to set up and loads the...

Canon PIXMA iP4920

I have used Canon Ip Pixma printers in the past and have had great success with all. I bought 3 of the 4920 printers and have nothing but trouble. Two of them had faulty printheads and I had to purchase new ones. Then, one of the printers developed a...

POOR COLOR MATCHING

In 20 years of using Canon printers this iP4920 is the first that I have not been very pleased with. Try as I might I have found no way to get print color any where near to matching screen color. None of the color adjustments in the Canon PhotoPrintEX...

Change in features unappreciated

I have had my Canon Pixma iP4500 for about 4 years. It has been an excellent printer, so when the need arose for an additional printer I immediately considered the Pixma iP4920.

Good Inkjet

So far I have only used this printer to print 4x6 photos, but I couldn't be more pleased with their quality. Colors are very natural.

I have the ip4920 and couldn't be more disappointed. It's slow and too noisy.

Consumer review (officemax.com)

Unhappy with Canon for the first time

I replaced a Canon iP6700D, a great printer, because I wanted a new Canon. In the past, Canon ALWAYS improved with their newest lines. On the iP4920, the photo paper has to be loaded at the rear for a straight path. The plain paper goes into the bottom...

Does Not Meet Expectations, small ink tanks, poor paper tray setup, poor photo color
