Horrible ink guzzling piece of junk.
The Canon MX922 can both print and scan wirelessly, a big plus for me. And the wireless setup is very, very easy. In addition to fast wireless printing from my PC, it also prints wirelessly from my iPad Mini. The MX922 is also a very beautifully designed machine. I was using a MX860, which I thought printed beautiful color photos until I printed out the same photo on that machine and on my new MX922. The MX922 printed significantly richer colors.
I do have some complaints though they are not serious enough to make me wish I had not purchased the MX922. First, the LCD is not a touch screen, which seems a bit bit archaic at this point, especially compared to competitors' comparable AIOs.
My other complaints are the lack of a rear paper tray and the annoying process of loading legal size paper. Unlike the MX860, which allowed you load both legal size paper AND envelopes easily into the rear tray and letter size paper into the lower/bottom tray, the MX922 only has two lower trays. The upper of those two trays only accepts photo paper. The lower tray accepts envelopes, letter size paper, and legal size paper. Adjusting that bottom tray for legal size paper is both annoying and a bit bizarre. I often feel like the somewhat flimsily constructed bottom tray will break while making that adjustment (which involves having to take the tray completely out of the machine and push the bottom of the tray on a button-like indentation that then lets you more fully extend the tray before you have to reinsert it). Thus, if you have to print a legal size document, a letter size cover letter, and an envelope, you will have to first put letter sized paper in the bottom tray, print out your cover letter, pull out the tray, take out the stack of letter size paper in the tray, make the aforementioned bizarre adjustment to the tray, insert legal size paper into the tray, print out your legal sized document, take the bottom tray out again, reverse the adjustment for legal size paper, adjust the tray for envelopes, print out the envelope, pull out the bottom tray yet again, adjust the tray for letter size paper, insert letter size paper, and finally once again insert the bottom tray back into the machine. For paralegals, legal secretaries, real estate secretaries, and others who need to print out both legal and letter size documents, plus envelopes, this will be an annoying process. Common sense does not seem to have been a priority in the design of this machine. The MX860 was much, much better designed for such a process.
EDITED: 5/15/15 -- This printer sucks. It is one of the worst products I have ever purchased, and that is coming from someone who has bought and loved Canon printers for almost 20 years. All I ever get is an error message on the LCD screen that I cannot figure out how to clear. I cannot print anything. This printer worked really good for about 2 or 3 months but has been worthless since then. Thank goodness I kept my MX860. I have had it for years without ever having a problem. But it is quite old now. With so many bad reviews, I can't believe Canon has not yet replaced the MX922. It too is getting to be an old model. If I could give it less than 1 star, I would.
