Most helpful customer reviews
PROS:
------
(1) EXCELLENT PHOTO PRINTING. Photo printing, the bread and butter of the Canon PIXMA lines, is reviewed by reputable review publications as having great quality and speed for the price point, and the MG7720/MG7520 offer the best of the MG models with 1 picoliter color dot accuracy offering very high color resolution and the extra gray color. More on the higher resolution and the gray below.
(2) Has one more color, GRAY, than the other new MG6820 and MG5720 models have. GRAY is for improved black and white results and to better darken colors to get to a particular tone. Its predecessors MG7520/7120/MG6320/MG6220 also have gray.
Gray helps make more accurate SKIN TONE when it combines with red and helps with reflections when combined with black. It is up to the application doing the printing as to whether Gray is used. If you want to test the use of Gray and thus want to guarantee it uses Gray when beneficial, use the Canon utility for the test printing.
(3) Has an ETHERNET connection, allowing a solid, simple shared/network wired connection that stays up even when computers are down. Its predecessors MG7520/MG7120/MG6320/MG6220 have it too. Other MG models like the other new MG printers, the MG6820 and MG5720, do not.
(4) Has a CASSETTE TRAY keeping the paper flat and 125 sheets at 20# (not tested) or 80 sheets of the popular 24# (tested). The new MG6820 and MG5720 (and their predecessors MG6620/MG5620) do not, limiting them to 100 20# sheets. While keeping the paper flat may not technically matter, most folks will prefer the MG7720 (and its predecessors MG7520/MG7120) classic cassette design over bending the paper stack up when closing the printer, leaving the paper uncovered to collect dust, or putting the paper in each time it is needed.
(5) Is one of the few ink jet printers out there available in WHITE (as well as BLACK, red, and gold). The MG6320 just a few years ago started the white model option and it was a hit. This years white model is a little different in that the insides that show when the output tray comes down is white, as well (instead of black).
(6) Has a handy separate 4"x6" and 5"x7" PHOTO PAPER DRAWER at the front (like its predecessors MG7520/MG7120). So no more having to switch paper back and forth nor leaving photo paper in the main tray. The other new MG series printers MG6820 and MG5720 (or their predecessors MG6620/MG5620) do not have this separate drawer.
(7) ATTRACTIVE and FAIRLY COMPACT. The new MG series models (MG7720, MG6820, MG5720) and most of those built in the last few years (MG7520, MG7120, etc) are a bit SHORTER/squatter than the earlier generation's form factor (MG6220/MG5420/etc). This is a nicer form factor if on a desk or especially a shelf. The new design ditches the rear paper feed to help achieve its new shelf friendly design. Listed in a section below are some alternatives with rear/straight feed.
(8) The new PGI-270/CLI-271 ink tanks continue to optionally come in an XL SIZE now which can reduce the page cost significantly and all the new MG series models use them. The XL sized ink tanks option is a little over 3 years old now. The PGI-270/CLI-271 inks are the same formula as the earlier model's ink (according to support) except for the blackand magenta dye inks.
(9) New INKS (PGI-270, CLI-271) including a DARKER BLACK and a DEEPER (aka brighter/"redder") RED (magenta) for all the new MG models (MG7720, MG6820, MG5720) than the last generation of ink for Canon MG PIXMA printers. For art, logos, decorative text, etc. the red will be BRIGHTER, more vivid. This ink's red is an effort to bring some of the photo magenta ink benefits from the PRO series to the single red cartridge
(10) For copying/scanning the TOP COMES OFF just like its predecessors MG7520/MG7120/MG6320 and the other 2 new MG models MG6820 and MG5720. There is also plenty of room without having to take the top off for smaller books and magazines. Just a few generations ago (MG6220,etc.) they didn't have a removable top. The top is a bit TOUGHER TO TAKE OFF than with its immediate predecessors.
(11) A leading consumer magazine over the years showed in charts that many of the PIXMA printers did TEXT very well for consumer inkjets. The MG7520 (and the 2 new ones MG6820/MG5720 and the recent older MG7520/MG6620/MG5620 models) have 2x more black ink nozzles than their predecessors the MG6220/MG5320 models. This allows greater BLACK DOT ACCURACY and more efficient use of black ink. All 3 new MG PIXMA printers including this one can do 600x600 dpi BLACK TEXT.
While MG PIXMA inkjet printers do great photos and text for consumer inkjet printers, if you need resume quality text get a little laser printer, too. A 600x600 laser printer can do text better than a 600x600 inkjet, for example. Laser printers offer superb text quality, much faster printing, and lower page cost.
- Example: Samsung Xpress SL-M2835DW/XAA Wireless Monochrome Printer
(12) The MG7720 prints at a very high COLOR RESOLUTION of 9600x2400 dpi (dots/inch). This is great if you use special paper like Canon Paper Plus Glossy II and have high resolution source material, just remember to set print quality HIGH and hit the GLOSSY paper setting. The other 2 new MG printers (MG6820/MG5720) do 4800x1200 dpi color, however that should meet most needs. The MG7520's predecessors MG7120 and MG6320 also had 9600x2400 dpi.
(13) The MG7720 has an SD CARD SLOT (like the new MG6820 but not the new MG5720). It also takes Memory Stick Duo/ProDuo/Micro, SDHC/miniSD/miniSDHC/microSD/microSDHC.
None of the newer MG models including the MG7720 have a CF nor MMC card slot anymore. The MG7120 STILL HAS CF and MMC memory card slots if you need them on it. One can always put them in a computer and print to the MG7720, of course.
(14) The MG7720 (and its MG7520 predecessor) are the only MG series printers with NFC (Near Field Communication), whereby an NFC-enabled cell phone or tablet can print something like a photo by being within 2" or so of the printer. This is not the usual wireless printing, it is the same technology used to detect if two cell phones are bumped together. The MG7720 NFC is considered much better than the MG7520 NFC implementation.
(15) The touch screen content-sensitive interfaces get rave reviews, though I found the old interface of the older models like the MG6220 just as easy. However the unanimity of positive reviews for it suggests it really is better for many.
(16) The MG7720 has an Access Point Mode which allows direct printing to the printer without need for a wireless router. Of course all these printers can print using a wireless router.
(17) The MG7720 (and MG7520/MG7120 predecessors) allow you to print directly on a DVD or CD. The other new MG printers MG6820 and MG5720 do not.
(18) With 10+ years of having a number of their products I have always found Canon to have great technical support and customer service, which for U.S. customers appears to be based out of Maryland and Virginia.
LESSER PROS:
-------------
- Like its predecessors (MG7520/MG7120), and like the other 2 new MG printers (MG6820/MG5720), it will AUTOMATICALLY TURN ITSELF ON when a print request is sent. This was a new feature as of the MG7120 generation which is roughly 2 years ago. You can also set it to auto shut-off after some time.
- All 3 new MG7520/MG6620/MG5520 are FAIRLY QUIET. Two generations ago (MG7120) there has been a grinding sound that happens a bit over a minute after start up, now you can mostly only hear the printer when printing and upon shutting down.
- The MG7720 of course does regular wireless printing (in addition to NFC noted above), either VIA WIRELESS ROUTER like most set-ups or with some set-up wireless DIRECTLY TO THE PRINTER via Access Point mode (this is different than NFC).
- The MG7720 continues to allow you to print directly from Flickr, Picasa, Canon Image Gateway, DropBox, Evernote, Google Cloud Print, Facebook, Twitter, and others. For some you may need to download apps to the printer.
- I am leaving out a laundry list of features and specifications you can read on the Canon site to keep the review focused on the big defining features/differences of this model.
CONS/WARNINGS:
-----------------
- This is new (Aug. 2015) and as such can be expected to have more issues than after some time passes. On the other hand, this may just be (and appears to be) an incremental modification to the MG7520 and so may not have this issue as much.
- The new ink cartridges might be hard to find for a while, especially right after holiday sales season.
- NO BUILT-IN FAX, if this is important to you in an all-in-one. Perhaps you want to get a dedicated fax machine of your choosing near a phone line anyways, however if you are looking for a built-in fax the MX series such as the MX922/MX892 printers have one.
- NO ADF (Automatic Document Feeder), if this is important to you in an all-in-one. The MX series such as the MX922/MX892 printers have them.
- No straight paper path. If this is important to you, consider the rear-feeding models like the MX892 listed in a section below. Keep in mind that the MG7720 certified paper weight for non-Canon paper is still 17#-28# and for the straight-path MX892 it is 17#-30#, so not that much difference. Even the old MG6220 rear feed recommendation maxed out at 28# certified. For Canon Genuine Paper the MG7720 is certified up to 96#.
- You cannot have Ethernet LAN wired printing and wireless printing activated at the same time. You can have USB connection to one computer and wireless at same time. Obviously this isn't a big deal for most but I thought I should note it.
- Their technical support, located in the U.S. for U.S. customers, is excellent and closes fairly late at 10P EST. It is closed on weekends.
