Why we love this Canon printer deal
Gone are the days of clunky, overpriced ink cartridges — Canon’s MegaTank printers give users the ability to refill only the ink they need, with convenient single-color bottles. It reduces waste and unnecessary expense since you don’t have to replace a whole ink cartridge every time you run out of one color. The Canon MegaTank G3270 also features a suite of handy functions, including wireless connectivity, scanning, and copying with the touch of a button.
I’ll be honest: even though I’m a deals editor here on the Reviews team, I’m experiencing some buyer’s remorse right now. I bought this printer during Black Friday at an excellent low price of $139, only to see it drop even lower to $109. I’ve been very pleased with the model’s performance, and the idea that I could’ve scored an extra $30 off is a thorn in my side. I need to share this deal with our readers, so someone else can benefit from my folly.

Why you’ll love it
I’ve been trying to cheap out on a color printer for months now. I don’t want to spend more than $150, but I also don’t want to settle for poor-quality prints. I want to have my cake and eat it, too! After a few misfires from other brands and lower price points, I’ve finally found that the Canon MegaTank G3270 hits the sweet spot for home use: it’s easy to use, reliably produces good quality, and features the handy MegaTank functionality.
Now, if you’re a home sticker maker or looking to make frameable art, I wouldn’t suggest the G3270 for your needs. Its capabilities are best suited for colored flyers, product packaging, labels, and similar applications. It’s easy to refill and connect to from a computer, iPad, or smartphone. It’s also not obscenely loud, and it churns out papers relatively quickly — not as quickly as my previous black and white laser printer, but fast enough to hit “print” from your phone and run out the door with a document in hand.
