Product Review: Canon Pixma iP8720 Printer

This printer has been an amazing addition to my home office! There are so many features that I can benefit from. I have several interests and photography is one of them. I love taking photos of my family and printing large scale prints to hang around my home. I’ve always enjoyed having those little reminders of beautiful moments in my life and was so happy to have captured it. With the Canon Pixma iP8720 Printer I can print my own large scale photos at an excellent quality!

I really look forward to printing so many more photos of my family – mostly my animated 7 year old son – just so I can print them and hang them on my walls. When friends and family come over, they always ask where I get my prints and I just point to my new printer.

Here are the features as listed in the overview on their website:
