Canon Pixma Wireless Inkjet MFC Printer TS5160
Bought this printer to replace a previous Canon Pixma printer with similar features. This has taken a bit of getting used to because some things are different. Price was very good. Ink cartridges are more expensive but a plus is that there are only two not multiple of the separate colours.

Just the right fit
Easy to install. Just the right size for home use. Though ink cartridges a bit expensive, but it balance out overall as I don't print often.

Recently went back to the Canon printers after disappointment with another brand. This small printer is doing the job I need it to at home. Install was easy.

Fantastic Features and Quality for the price
This inexpensive AIO is delivering almost the same quality prints as a multi hundred dollar one. Only lacking CD printing compared to more expensive ones. Free delivery within a 2 hour window was a complete surprise!

Things to consider
Compared with premium office printers or refill-tank models, it is less suited to heavy-volume printing because cartridge costs can add up over time.
Home office suitability score
7.5/10 - a strong fit for light home office printing, scanning and copying, but not ideal for high monthly print volumes.
Photo printing quality
8/10 - good colour and detail for casual home photo printing, though enthusiasts may want a more photo-specialised model.
Ease of use rating
8.5/10 - simple controls, straightforward setup and easy mobile printing make it approachable for most households.
Running cost guidance
Best for light to moderate use; cartridge costs are manageable for everyday home printing but can feel expensive for frequent colour or high-volume users.
Family friendliness
8.5/10 - well suited to mixed household needs such as homework, forms, recipes and occasional photos.
Key benefits
- Wireless Connectivity: Print from laptops, smartphones and tablets without needing a constant USB connection.
- All-in-One Design: Handles printing, scanning and copying in one compact unit to save desk space.
- Compact Footprint: Fits more comfortably in small home offices, bedrooms and shared family spaces.
- Automatic Duplex Printing: Prints on both sides of the page automatically to reduce paper use.
- Rear Paper Feed: Makes it easier to load photo paper and different media types for flexible home printing.
- Mobile Printing Support: Lets you send jobs quickly from compatible mobile apps and common wireless print services.
- Colour Display and Simple Controls: Helps make setup, maintenance and everyday navigation straightforward for most users.
- Photo-Capable Inkjet Output: Produces sharper, more vibrant photos than many basic document-focused printers.
Q: What ink cartridges does the Canon Pixma TS5160 use?
A: Canon TS5160 uses Canon PG-640 black and CL-641 colour ink cartridges, with higher-yield XL versions also commonly available. It uses a two-cartridge system, so colour comes from one tri-colour cartridge rather than separate cyan, magenta and yellow tanks.
Q: Is the Canon Pixma TS5160 better for occasional home use or heavier printing?
A: The TS5160 is better suited to low to moderate home printing than heavier office workloads. It is a compact inkjet all-in-one, so it suits homework, everyday documents and casual photo printing, but frequent high-volume use is usually cheaper on a tank or laser model.
Q: Can the Canon TS5160 print wirelessly from a phone or laptop without USB?
A: Yes, the TS5160 is designed for wireless printing, so compatible phones, tablets and laptops can print once the printer is joined to the same network. That is more convenient than USB for shared home use, but initial Wi-Fi setup still needs to be completed first.
Q: Does the Canon Pixma TS5160 have an automatic document feeder for multi-page scanning?
A: No, the TS5160 scans from a flatbed rather than an automatic document feeder, so multi-page jobs need each sheet placed on the glass one at a time. That suits occasional copying and scanning, but it is slower for regular forms or long documents.
Q: Does the Canon TS5160 support automatic double-sided printing?
A: Yes, the TS5160 supports automatic double-sided printing, which helps reduce paper use for schoolwork and everyday documents. It is worth noting that duplex printing can be slower than single-sided output, especially on longer colour jobs.
