Canon PIXMA G7020 All-In-One Printer Review [2023 Edition]

Several printers are available on the market, ranging from portable to robust office printers. Unfortunately, not all printers are made equal, so using a well-reputed brand such as Canon is the safest option. Canon is a well-known brand in digital imaging solutions and one of the few reliable printer manufacturers on the market. This blog will give a detailed review of the PIXMA G7020. We will go through all its features so that you can determine whether it fits your needs or not.

Design & Specs

The G7020 is a robust and fairly beefy machine that weighs around 29 pounds. Its dimensions are 15.9’’x 14.6’’x9.3". So, you won't be able to move it around the office, but it can do everything your business needs, including printing, scanning, copying, and faxing. The G7020 is surprisingly heavy because it packs a lot of power and features into the package. The outer cover is made from a glossy black PVC plastic that won't break easily. The automatic document feeder is located on the printer's top facing toward the left. The feeder enables you to scan, copy and fax multi-page documents. When you finish that, the scanned pages will be dispensed into a small tray under the ADF. From there, you can easily retrieve those scanned documents.

The primary hopper for the paper is located on the back of the printer, but it has a relatively small capacity of 350 pages. You can also check how much paper remains in the machine through a small window on the hopper's edge. On the right side of the hopper, you will find the large color ink wells. Much like the hopper, the color ink wells also incorporate windows for easy visibility, through which you can track how much ink remains in each well. 

The control panel is located at the center of the machine. It features built-in controls with separate buttons for color and black & white copies. The control panel also features a standard numerical keypad and a stop button to terminate the ongoing job immediately. You will also find the scan, copy, print, and fax buttons on the left side, along with menu controls. There's also a button for quick and easy pairing.

Refillable Ink

The ink cartridges have been standard since the first dot matrix printers as they have no problem clicking into place and dispensing ink at a known rate. But these ink cartridges need to offer visibility. So, since the mid-90s, manufacturers have introduced certain software allowing you to view the ink level. And when your cartridges run out of ink, you have to replace these costly ink cartridges. It was not until 2000 that manufacturers started using refillable ink cartridges instead of traditional ones. Although the refill process was messy, It solved the cartridge replacement problem, but the visibility problem remains unsolved. PIXMA G7020 has solved this problem by incorporating refillable ink wells into the printer. Refilling the ink wells is mess-free and straightforward. To refill them, you have to open the top lid; you can even refill them in the middle of the job.

Refillable ink, accompanied by dual hoppers, lets you print large printing jobs with minimum interruption. You can print up to 6,000 pages before the black ink well runs out. CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key)color ink can last up to 7,700 pages. However, this is just an approximation; the real results may differ. The black ink is pigment based, whereas CMYK colors are dye-based. You'll also receive three black bottles and a full set of CMYK ink in the box and the printer. This will help you get started and last for a long time before you have to refill them.G7020 is not just for office use. It's a very good photo printer too. It can print up to 8.5’’x11’’size. Photos. It also has a borderless printing function.

Connectivity Option & Deep Software

G7020 can easily be connected to your computer or PC via an ethernet cable and Wi-Fi. Its Wi-Fi connectivity feature is one of the best in the market. In addition, the printer comes with the Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app, which is standard in most Canon printers. Other than allowing you to perform setup and printing operations from your phone, it also allows you to manage your printer queue remotely. 

Through the app, you can print photos and documents from social media sites, including Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. You can also print photos and documents from shared document sites such as Google Drive, Dropbox, Microsoft OneDrive, and Evernote. The printer also supports Apple AirPrint and Google Cloud Print, so you won't need an outside app. In addition, you can print directly from Google Docs and Gmail.
