Our expert review

A printer with automatic functions for a small office

Economical printing with ink bottles
The paper tray is at the front.
3 black ink bottles included
The print resolution is low

With the Canon MAXIFY GX2051 printer, I can easily print all my text documents. Thanks to the economical ink bottles, I print many pages before I need new ink. However, due to the low print resolution, I cannot print sharp photos, but this printer is not intended for that purpose.

First Impression In the box, I find the printer, a manual, and a power cable. The package also contains 6 GI-55 ink bottles: 3 black, one magenta, one cyan, and one yellow. I am happy with the extra black ink bottles, as I print many reports, brochures, and other documents. The printer has a compact size, so it fits in my home office. I scan the QR code on the manual. The Canon website then guides me step-by-step through the installation. I unfold the touchscreen and turn on the printer. The touchscreen feels a bit rough and responds best when I apply a little more pressure. I place the ink bottles one by one upside down on the correct reservoir and remove them when they are full. Next, I place A4 paper in the tray and adjust the guides. Because the paper tray is located at the front, I place the printer flush against a wall.

Quick connection with Wi-Fi Direct and Canon PRINT

During installation, the printer searches for a Wi-Fi connection, but I prefer working with Wi-Fi Direct. I select Wi-Fi Direct on the printer's touchscreen, after which it also appears in my list of available networks on my phone. The printer is connected after a few minutes. On my phone, I download the Canon PRINT app, through which I can easily send my print jobs. I choose between documents, images, and scanning. I also view frequently asked questions and customize the app's home screen to my own preferences.

Handy automatic functions

The Canon MAXIFY GX2051 printer has an automatic document feeder. This allows me to quickly scan or copy a stack of paper. The printer pulls the pages through the scanner one by one and prints the copies directly from the paper tray at the front. This paper tray holds up to 250 sheets of paper. This printer also prints double-sided automatically, which saves time and paper. It holds the sheet briefly and feeds it through the printer again. However, the document feeder does not scan double-sided automatically. The printer prints 15 black-and-white pages and 10 color pages per minute, so I don't have to wait long for my prints.

Top printer for everyday use

Easy with the refillable ink
Purchase a little higher, but don't keep buying cartridges
Works smoothly via WiFi
Best big size

Best printer we've had so far! And I've worn out quite a few. In use for a year now and is highly recommended.

Easy installation (instructions on the led screen). Just print, no hassle. Couple of test prints of images came out nice straight away.
