Reviews around size (4.12 of 5)

  • The good: Small, compact size fit the requirements for the location where I was intending to use it
  • only an OK buy not a great buy and when it breaks I’ll definitely be buying a different printer
  • (size)CONS:-- Ridiculously slow at everything - prints black and white MAYBE 5 pages a minute despite whatever the specs say.
  • A bit large size-wise compared to an Epson printer I last had, but does the job it's suppose to do with no fuss
  • It is a great size and sits beautifully right on my desk.

Reviews around value (4.00 of 5)

  • Fast shipping, unbelievable value, easy to set up and great wireless capabilities!
  • Our last printer was a Pixma, so when we upgraded to this wireless model, we expected to love it just as much as we did our old one.
  • Teally frustrating as it will not print wirelessly from a Windows 10 laptop
  • The top feeder is likely to get broken as it does not fold down flat
  • But for the price and for my intended use, the MX492 is a very good value.

Reviews around doe (1.75 of 5)

  • Here is the good (which does not in my mind outweigh the bad):A) the copy function is very good and clear - (although it is good only a4 and ltr)B) the driver and app is very good (to MacOS High Sierra)C) very lightweight - easy to change location (even up the stairs)
  • The bad: eats ink (and it's expensive), paper jams for no reason, does not have certain functions if using a Chromebook, not so easy to set up, clunky software
  • The scanner works great as does the color, easy to insert and extract the ink and paper
  • This printer is Rinky-Dink, Cheap-o, Cheesy, with ChinesEnglish directions
  • The worst part of this printer is that it does not make it easy to load the paper--either it's too far inside or not far enough--and it jams if you do it wrong

Reviews around ink (1.62 of 5)

  • The ink is more expensive than the printer and it doesn't last, this printer is the worse printer I ever purchase
