You are genius! was going to pay geeksqad $120 to do this....was so tired after dealing with spectrum being down for days.....this was so easy! you are really easy to understand! thank you!
Thank you so much for your knowledge and for sharing it with us. This was far easier than trying to do it through the printer panel itself which is so tiny you can barely read the text. 👏👏👏🙏🏼
Good afternoon, I just had a question. I've just gotten this particular printer and the font is magnified. I'm trying to figure out how to minimize it. I'm not finding a menu for the font...... Do you have any ideas?
this video was such a blessing to find for setting up my new printer! The unboxing one and this wireless setup video. The amazon reviews had me so anxious about wireless setup... this video made it so EaSy! Thank you 303 Electronics!
I’ve downloaded the Canon app on my iPhone & iPad & selected the TS6420 from the list. The printer is in wireless connection mode. But neither my iPhone or iPad show the TS 6420 as an “other device” in Bluetooth. Bluetooth won’t acknowledge that the printer exists. Do I have a bad TS6420?
I don't want to connect to a smartphone. Can I connect printer using a power cord to the outlet? And can I download software from my Windows 10 software
I have set this printer up three times now to a pc running windows 10. It works fine with my iPhone “without” any SW. BUT the Pc. No way. Just doesn’t want to know. It is hooked up and can see it. But just constantly tells me it’s not connected.
Just search web for "canon ts6420 driver" on the PC and it should direct you to canon website and detect your PC operating system automatically and suggest a free software download. Please let me know hot that goes. Be careful to only download from Canon, not any other driver site.
Hello 303 Electronics, thank you for your videos. Your first TS6420 video helped me to decide what to buy. Now I have a minor concern. I connected my new TS6420a (Currently $69.99 at BestBuy) to my computer using WiFi before i watched this second video. By doing so, all three of my computers are connected to the printer (that was my goal). What I did different, though, was I used the "Easy Connect" option. Is that safe, or should I disconnect and do the manual setup? I'd greatly appreciate your advice and again, thank you. PS: I did download the app to my Android, but I did that last.
I just bought a Canon TS7451 Pixma. I tried to download the app on App store. I have an iPhone 6 plus, my wife a 6. Neither can download the Selphy app as it requires iOs 13.0 or higher. I guess I should have stuck with Epson which works fine with my WF printer...
Hi. There isn't a labels setting on the printer, you need to check the template setting on the label packaging. For example, if it is a shipping label, you can print in on regular paper, letter size, and just attach the label with clear scotch tape, if you are doing address labels, there should be the template number on the packaging.
@@303electronics well it’s from Avery and I have the paper/ labels but in the directions it says change printer settings to labels. And when I tried to print them they didn’t turn out right.
@@brownskinb5084 , I recommend using avery website for printing labels, you will always get it right. Make sure when you select paper size when printing, it is the following: letter or 8.5x11 size(unless noted otherwise on packaging), then make sure the margins are correct and do not select "fit to width" or any such setting, reduce/enlarge should be set only at 100%, not more or less.
So i need help ive been tring to connect my phone to my printer and ive been doing everything it told me. Even manually put the wifi on the printer and it still says it has trouble connecting. What should i do.
For each brand it is a hit and miss with new printer models. If buying Canon, I'd go with MegaTank series. Very cheap ink and printers have a very good control panel and screen.
I am able to connect with my iPhone to the printer. Also, I performed the connection with the printer to the router but when I try to access the printer with my laptop I still cannot detect it. I made sure that my laptop and Wi-Fi are both on the same network and not the 5G one. Did the software install from the Cannon site. Printer states "easy connect" completed but my laptop states "connection failed. "Not sure what to try next.
Make sure you download and install app on the device in your garage and add this printer to the app. There is a range between a printer and device, but that range should cover most homes, some palaces too. 😄. Let me know if you got it figured out. Here's the app that can be downloaded play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.canon.bsd.ad.pixmaprint
@@303electronics it seems the app is for a cell phone...i was looking for an app for the computer...let me know if you have any idea what might work...also subbed your channel...also does your TS6420 stay on 24/7???? mine turns off....have to turn back on before i print...my old HP 4520 was always on
Hi. The paper goes on the bottom tray. It is a drawer Cassette at the very bottom front of printer. Pulls out like a drawer. Regular sized paper is usually loaded there. Depending on your printer tray settings. Special paper sizes like photo paper will usually be loaded in the back top tray. Let me know if that was helpful.
They are very much the same, other than the TS6420 doesn't have the feeder on the top. As far as Hotspot from phone, I'm not sure. I assume it should work, but cannot be certain as I connect both my phone and printer to my router. I will test that and let you know, unless you find out sooner and let us all know if that works. 👍

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly too. I saw the video was 2 weeks old and thought id never hear from you.. minutes later you saved my life !! Thank you
Hi. For that you need special ink cartridges which have edible ink. If someone sells cartridges with edible ink fir this printer, then I do not see why not. Thanks.
@@303electronics ok this is what I found SOTEK 250XL251XL250 251XLINK it’s that ok I just want to be sure because I’m already buy it but I have no clue and I’m so happy I found this Video and thanks again for the big help....🙏
Useless video for me. No other methods or options or anything. What is the Bluetooth won't pair? What if I'm hotspotting from my phone? Printer not connected to a router?
If you were a poor unfortunate who bought a Canon TS6420 I sympathize with you it is a piece of crap it is not worth the time it takes to even put it together dump it
Thanks finally got it connected after 2 years

Great! I hope you like it! Have a great day!
Thank you, you amazing hero!
Thank you, thank you and thank you. a very helpful video.
Just got a brand new one, and the paper keeps on jamming from the cassett area 🤕
That's not good. Try adjusting the paper width guides so they are not too tight.
Thank you 😊 very helpful!

Good afternoon, I just had a question. I've just gotten this particular printer and the font is magnified. I'm trying to figure out how to minimize it. I'm not finding a menu for the font...... Do you have any ideas?
Is it good for an online Business?
It depends what business. If you need to print under 300 pages per month, this is good option.
Does it work with ts205
Wondering how to use the scanner on this printer.
Hi. We use a scanner option on this printer in the video below:

Tray capacity is bigger on TS6420, Has two trays vs one, screen and control panel has more functions.

How can I print pictures on normal paper??
Canon printer are starting to suck and its falling apart and don't want to connect anymore

Just FYI if you have a 5ghz Wifi Router, it wont connect. Only 2.4, unfortunately.

What is the difference between this one and the TS8350?
TS8320 uses 5 or ink cartridges, this one uses 2 ink cartridge system.
Ugh this doesn’t work. I wish someone could actually help me 😩
Mine is not doing any of this. No matter what I do. No matter what tutorial I follow. Is my printer a dud?
Why is my black printing gray
Do you just make up a password or did I have it? Is the password to my internet?
Yes, the password to your internet router. Just the same as you would do to connect your phone or computer to the internet.
