A brief review as I barely have had a chance to use this machine but it was easy to set up - took just a little while extra to configure the wireless mode for my mac laptop but once set up the wireless worked great and the machine prints well. The only shortcoming so far and perhaps I havent found the feature but it does not seem to have control features for you to differentiate between high quality photo paper and regular paper and some other features I am used to for fine tuning a print-
other than that ( and perhaps I have not found the feature) I think it is a great printer and am pleased with Canon in general.

I totally recommend this printer. It's so easy to hook-up and use!
No issues whatsoever!!!

This is a nice, budget-friendly laser printer with a lot of networking options. Unfortunately, setting these options up with the included software is a royal pain. I have a simple wireless home network with a Linksys router and two laptops, and it took me 6 hours to get the printer working properly, mainly because I foolishly followed the included documentation and setup software. If setting up your printer near your router, ignore the wireless network option and go straight for the wired network. After 6 hours, I could not get the wireless and wired options to work because the driver setup would not detect the printer. I read online an alternate way to set up using the wired network, and it worked perfectly.

For those interested in buying this printer for a simple wireless setup like mine, you'll save yourself some headache by installing the BRAdmin Light program included on the driver CD and running it to ensure it detects the printer. Plug your printer into your router using an ethernet cable. You should then be able to install the drivers using the wired network option and providing the IP for the printer (can be found using the BRAdmin program). This works on XP and Vista. I never did get the completely wireless setup to work, but since my printer is right next to the router, I really don't need to.

Print speed is decent, the monochrome print quality is good, and the compact size is nice. No autoduplex though, which is to be expected at this price. I also found generic high yield toner cartridges for about $20 after shipping on , so all in all, its a good pickup.

I just got the 610. So far this is a very simple set up. I was on-line without a hitch. Very easy to understand instructions. The test print was really nice too. I just hope it will work well with my Windows 7, I read a review that said it did not scan to Windows 7, we will see, I will update this review as I gain experience. But the price is terrific.

I bought this printer for my dorm room. It works great and meets all my needs. I just wish I hadn't had to buy the USB cable separately.

First thing first - our new ability to print to one printer wirelessly from any location in the house is worth its weight in gold. This makes my family very happy. Second - this thing is so feature rich for the price I highly reccomend that anyone with an older printer just take the leap and upgrade.

However, setup was not simple as the web site video suggested. I bet it installed perfectly for some people, but in my case the printer "could not be found" on my network by any of my computers. Eventually I figured out how to force it, but in total I spent about 6 hours trouble shooting to get at the root of the problem.

A little nit pick is all the bloatware software it installed. I know I could have picked what I did and didn't want, but I wasn't sure what was required and what wasn't to make it work...

Printer is perfect for what I needed it for. It is actually a little more noisy than the last brother printer that I had, but other than that, it is great. Service and delivery were perfect.

Printer is over all good except for custom paper sizing. Not all sizes are available in borderless.

I think for the price, this printer is a great deal. I love it and I find it very easy to use. I would suggest it to anyone looking for a printer. The regular ink kinda runs out fast so I would suggest the bigger XL version. But other than that no complaints.

This is a big improvement over my previous series 6200 printer. Its wireless and prints on both sides and is more substantial and not nearly as flimsy.
