Canon Color imageCLASS MF741Cdw vs Epson Workforce Pro WF-4820

The Canon Color imageClass MF741Cdw churns out good-looking output at a respectable clip, though an auto-duplexing ADF would round out its otherwise strong feature set nicely.

6ppm for printing our entire suite of test documents. This is just edged out by the WF-4830's 12ppm.

The interface is notably easy to use as well, boasting a large touch display with built-in adjusters that we were able to use to correct initial saturation issues during setup.

The setup is intuitive and quick and the interface is awesome, hosting a range of helpful troubleshooting capabilities that can quickly help you resolve any issues that might arise.

Working great now. This printer is a bit large if your using for a home office like me I prefer something more compact but I wanted an automatic feeder and color printer this is the best one I could find in my price range. Overall I would recommend this printer.

I like the form factor and size. It seems like the right amount of tall and wide for most desks, I've had some printers that were way too big for a desktop printer and this one should fit on most desks. The scanning feature is good with multi-page scanning and blank detection.

I noticed the bank of toner cartridges costs as much as the printer. So I ordered a bank of aftermarket toner cartridges for much less and I will use them once the given supply is gone. It is supposed to be less cost per page even if you use their cartridges. I expect to save more with the after market toner cartridges

Proof will be, in the pudding, as the saying goes on how well it holds up. I don't do an enormous amount of printing and the HPs lasted me only through a third set of XL black ink changes before some print head errors caused them to die. Yes, can replace print head, but they are not cost effective on a used printer. Only complaint--and this applies to all the printer brands--the ink is way too expensive and they are constantly working to keep folks from buying aftermarket or refilled ink

But as of recently, the print quality is horrible. the rollers have already gone bad and it transfers ink all of the page, ruining your document.

I have had this printer for 3 weeks and have had to purchase ink 3 times. That's crazy! @$75 per box that's adding up fast!

My only concern is the scanner randomly won't work saying it can't connect to my win 10 pro computer. It even does this when it is a wired connection. I can usually get it working by playing around with it but who wants to play around to get a scanner to work. Cannon needs to release a patch or update or remedy this common problem

(I actually did move the WF-4820 to a position where I could connect it directly to the router, and that solution did not work so basically the advice from Tech Support was terrible. And it was frustrating because the technician had the stereotypical attitude of the problem cannot be their device. It must be a user problem.) I was about to send the WF-4820 back and write a more scathing review when I decided to look online for the software necessary to run the printer and scanner instead of using the installation software provided by Epson

I had a heck of a time getting this to scan to computer wirelessly, but finally got it!

However after the first down load from Epson it required us to reinstall the WiFi. We needed help however Epson is not open after 7:00PM Friday and does not reopen until Monday. I would like 24/7 technical help. Issues are not restricted to a achedule

Ow I am getting an error message that it can’t find the magenta cartridge. Not sure why. I put a new cartridge in. Didn’t fix it

Epson updates make your 3rd party ink cartridges useless. Had I've known this ahead of time I would've never purchased the Epson.
