Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Someone said, If I print on Plain Paper, then colour of Laser printer will be better than IP8720! Is it true?

A: Laser printers and the IP8720 are very different machines. If you want to print high quality images go with IP8720. If photo quality is not an issue then go with a laser. Lasers are also significantly cheaper to operate. The PIXIMA does best when matched with photo quality paper.

Q: 2. Will it handle transparency sheets? Can I print wirelessly from my computer?

A: I only use this printer wirelessly from three different computers. A Compaq, a Lenovo, and the afore mentioned iPad mini. Yes it is large, maximum print width is 13 inches. There has to be room for the print carriage to clear the paper at both ends. If you want large prints it takes a large printer.

Q: 3. Can this printer handle fine art paper like William Turner?

Q: 5. I am asking about paper weight as well. In addition to photo papers I want to use 65 lb card stock for photo note cards. Please don't answer with how thick the paper can be- I am asking about the weight- and can't accurately measure the thickness of a single sheet of paper (and it's not on the packaging, either). Can I use this printer for 65 lb paper?

A: yes.. we use up to 140 pound ..it's the best!!! only downside is that the ink is super expensive!

Q: 6. Is Canon Premium Fine Art Smooth paper compatible with the iP8720? 310 GSM, 16.5 MIL

A: Canon does not list its PIXMA iP8720 Wireless Inkjet Photo Printer (B&H# CAIP8720) as being compatible with its Canon Premium Fine Art Smooth Paper (13 x 19", 25 Sheets) (B&H# CA1711C004), nor vice versa. To be clear, Canon officially gives a listing of the Canon papers that will work with this printer (see p.195 of the manual) and the one you asked about is clearly excluded. Notably, it’s 50 gsm heavier than the heaviest of them. Speaking generally, in such a situation, even if such especially heavy and thick paper does make it through a printer (which is likely in this case), it can happen that the springs used to give the rollers the right amount of tension to grip the paper may be overly compressed by the paper’s weight and thickness. The consequence of that excessive compression can be that the tension is reduced and so the rollers subsequently have difficulty gripping thinner papers. There are also cases in which a printer’s print head may even experience too much friction with overly thick papers and thus the prints come out poorly, if at all. Having said all of that, there's no question that the paper itself would do well with the ink, and if you use individual, flat, and unbent sheets of such paper in the top-rear feed then you will get the best result possible. For all the reasons mentioned, we just cannot endorse doing that.

Q: 10. how fast do the cartridges dry up. I am an on and off semi-pro photographer so the same would go for printing. printer might sit for 30 days unused then might spend half a day printing continuously. It would be dedicated to photo only I have a dell laser scanner printer for documents. I do take night shots and do dusk and dawn silhouettes so I am concerned about the halo effect expressed by another owner. Is there a different canon printer that doesn't have this issue? or should I be looking to another printer altogether?

A: I've found that I can let the print sit idle for well over 30 days with no hit of drying. After that I will print 15 photos and have no issues with the print quality at all.
