1. It can print from smart phones and tablets using Canon printers connected to wireless networks. * Items that can be set vary depending on the printer you are using. *When opening the app, if you are asked to grant permission for notifications, please tap "Allow".
2. You need to activate the Canon Print Service for printing using it.
3. Canon Print Service is software that can print simply from the menus of applications that support Android's printing subsystem.
4. The Canon Print Service is not activated immediately after installation.
5. Activate it using one of the following methods. - Tap the icon displayed in the notification area immediately after installation, and activate the service in the displayed settings screen. - Tap [Settings] > [Printing] > [Canon Print Service], and activate the service in the displayed settings screen. * If you are using a mobile terminal with Android 7 or later installed, the service is automatically activated after installation.
1. App doesn't remember two sided printing setting which can be improved.It connects to the printer, but won't print anything but picture files.
2. Made it possible for me to print from my Samsung Tab A and Galaxy S9 Android devices to our 7 year old Canon MG5420 printer.
3. The app runs behind the scenes on my phone without adding an actual app icon to my menu, which at first confused me and I now see as a helpful feature since I can choose to print directly from the source of what I am trying to print (i.e. website, document, screen).Works well when the app can be seen in share options.
4. When printing from my phone, my printer behaves strangely - stopping in the middle of a job, momentarily, before continuing to print.
5. Sometimes my phone says it doesn't detect a printer, sometimes it does.
6. I finally get it to connect and when I try to print, it tells me that the printer isn't responding.
7. Somehow they made it worse.(Imagine that!) Alone with printer errors, it's also blocking other computers from printing.
8. Fix those issues and I will add a 4th star to my review.Basically, it's usless! Every! Every time I use it, says the printer is not available or blocked.
9. Also, it does not allow duplex printing (greyed out) even though the printer has that capability.
10. And to be clear, the actual physical printer is awesome, but the app is broken.Printer has continuous network connection problems.
11. Anytime I try to print a PDF or other type of document file, it either "prints" a blank page, or it prints SOOOO faint that it's useless.
