Setting the printer up for phone usage was somewhat easy, though not entirely painless. However, setting the printer up for wireless usage for PC usage was so frustrating that after 40 minutes of effort I finally decided to just use the USB cable to set it up that way instead. The software was installing, please wait for 15+ minutes with no progress bar in sight. I finally cancelled the software installer and clicked troubleshoot. Well, when you click troubleshoot, Canon apparently thinks its perfectly normal and you should just continue to wait. And thats all it says. VERY helpful.... Luckily, Windows finally decided to randomly recognize the Printer via USB, it just took a few tries. Maybe the software or driver partially installed enough for that to happen, Im not sure. However, now the printer is informing me that my black ink is low.... Ive printed maybe 10 pages at most (from my smartphone) and they were NOT ink heavy pages at all. If you were to write a page of text and print that off, that would have used probably three times as much ink as Ive used. I dont think Ive ever owned a decent printer in my life and this one is no different, but at least with the others I could get their basic functionality working within 15 minutes. Ive spent well over an hour with this one just for it to work over USB. Buy at your own risk.
