Canon PIXMA E4570 All in One (Print, Scan, Copy) WiFi Ink Efficient Colour Printer with FAX and Auto Duplex Printing for Home/Office

Good Product,Value for Money. Ticks all required usage for small business and home needs

Cannon E4570.This was launched as a successor for E4270 (I searched everywhere but couldn't find a credible source to explain the differences between the two). I researched extensively before purchase to find a printer which will fullfil the following criteria for me - wifi enabled (so that we can print with smartphone without opening the laptop), clear color print (decent for child's homework, photo quality not required) and cheap to run. E4270 seem to fit all the criteria, so I ordered this. Even the canon authorised showroom didn't have E4570 in stock, so ordered the E4570 off Amazon.Summary - fullfills top two criteria. Though is a little expensive if you do more than the occasional print.Delivery was 3 days earlier than the delivery date shown on Amazon, so that was great. It was just the printer box, with no outer packing. The box was sealed with cello tape, and not sealed, so I suspect it had been opened at some point. Thankfully, all the components were there, and the seal on the printer and cartridges were intact, so i was ok with the delivery.Setup was smooth on both my smartphone and laptop over wifi. I never had to use the usb cable. Setup was through the canon app on phone and the canon website (link for both given in manual), which guides step by step on how to setup. I did not face any challenges and the setup and printing has been smooth from all devices.Color prints are a bit faded on plain paper (75gsm). This might be a function of the paper and not the printer. The black&white prints are crisp and sharp. The print speed is decent.The only negative is the amount of ink consumption. While the box says 180 color prints and 300 b&w, both my cartridges are showing at 80% after 4 color print and around 30 b&w. Specially for color prints, the printer tends to drop the cartridge level by a notch after just 2-3 prints. I suspect the color cartridge will not last longer that 30-40 full color pages. Refilling the cartridges a few times is of course an option, but it is messy and requires practice. This is fine for me as I need color prints very rarely.A special mention for the ADF and duplex printing. Both the features are extremely useful. Duplex printing is especially unique in this price range, and comes in very handy while printing larger documents.Overall, I am happy with my purchase after couple of weeks of usage. I will update the review if I run into any issues.

I couldn’t write a feedback to the seller, thus I’ll have to do it in a product review.After thorough research, I ordered the Canon Pixma E4570 in the April 2023. One day delivery with decent packaging was provided by Amazon. Product worked fine. I even registered for the warranty on Canon website from the serial number provided in the Invoice/Warranty Slip. After using it for 4-5 months, I started having issues with the print qualities. Naturally, I contacted the customer support and registered a repair request with Canon under warranty. Service was prompt and my issue was solved the next day by the executive. Now comes the tricky part. During that service I came to know that the serial number written on my printer and the one in the invoice are totally different. What should I interpret about this? Did I get the wrong product or did I get the wrong invoice? After realising this, I contacted Amazon Customer Support. They advised me to contact the seller because according to them, seller can solve this problem. So, I tried contacting the seller Appario Retail, but I couldn’t get in touch. Seems like they don’t have a customer support service or who knows. After that I found multiple negative reviews about them from various buyers. Now I’m wondering whether I got the genuine product or not? Moral of the story, always check the serial number on the invoice and on the product on the electronic items. Oh and stay away from this seller.I might as well mention couple of things about the Printer. It’s not cost effective at all. You’ll have to purchase expensive Canon Cartridges regularly to get things going. Design is quite delicate, have to be careful while moving around. Only good things about the printer is Duplex Printing and Good quality colour printing. Better to go for inktank or laser printers for long term use.
