Pencils – check. Paper – check. Notebooks – check.
New printer – ??
Don’t have one of those yet? Lucky for you, we’re giving one away!
It’s no secret that back-to-school must-haves have changed over the years, and kids – and parents – just need access to certain things to make life easier. A fantastic home printer is definitely one of them.
We have a lot of technological gadgets in our house, but until last week, we’d been functioning without a home printer for years. It’s been a giant pain. That’s why I jumped at the chance to review (and give away!) a Canon PIXMA MG6320 Wireless Inkjet Photo All-In-One Printer.
I got it up and running two days ago, and I can already tell how much simpler it’s going to make our lives – and school hasn’t even started yet. I can only imagine the workout the printer will get in the next couple of weeks as we print pictures, school forms, homework, and more.
The first thing I did was download the Canon iEPP mobile app. In about 30 seconds I had the app downloaded and sent a picture to print straight from my phone.
From the app, I can print directly from my camera’s photo roll, or I can use my phone as a scanner and then send the document I scan to print. From anywhere. Canon also has Google Cloud Print, which means you can print directly from Gmail, Google Docs, or Chrome – from your mobile device or browser.
This is game-changing, people.
In addition to its sheer convenience, Canon makes printing fun. They have a new Facebook app that allows you to turn photos and videos into comic strips that you can then download, print, or share on Facebook.
By adding text and filters, you can get as creative as you want!
You can even make those Pinterest-y back-to-school photos that everyone’s posting. This one took me approximately 14 seconds to create and print. Finally – a project I actually have time for! (And seeing as how this was on the first day of school last year, it only took me a year to get around to doing it!)
I love this printer, and I think you will too!

We do not have a home printer, and with one daughter in junior high and another in 4th grade, it is a huge pain to run over to my parents house all the time to print things off!! It would save us tons of time and money by having this 🙂
With homeschooling, you end up printing worksheets and such a lot. Besides, we just ran out of ink and seriously…it’s almost worth throwing away our printer and buying a new one with as much as ink costs. So there’s that.

I would use a new printer to print millions of back to school pictures of my almost 4-year-old who is starting PRE-SCHOOL!
I pinned the top graphic!
High school papers have to be typed and printed most of the time!

This would be so great for our daughter’s reports and such she has to type for the first time this year! Our printer at home is ancient and so hard to find ink for! I usually have to order it off Amazon which is fine until I forget to keep some in stock!
This would come in handy for school projects and worksheets.

I would use it mostly for printing photos, but also leveled readers and worksheets for my kiddos to do at home. Along with school report cards and such.

Not so much back to school, but this would replace the printer i practically bunt up during my master’s program.
pinned it!
I will use it to print pictures of my daughter for her first day of school. I want to send these prints to my family.
Awesome! I would use this to have physical proof that I remembered to take a pic on Owens first day of school! 1 picture only- thats all he let me take!!
I’d use it for homeschooling projects.

I’d love to have a new printer…our current one died, and it will only scan right now. It’s hard to print things out for my kids with just a scanner.
I pinned it.

I would use it for printing photos of my son and also printing all my homework stuff.
I pinned it.
I spend most of my time trying to get our old Brother inkjet to print; it’s always hit or miss and many times illegible when it does print. With all the papers my daughter has to write for school, this printer would be a blessing.

I would love to win so I can actually take the back to school pics off of my cell and onto the fridge before they graduate! (I have a 2 and 8 year old!) lol!
I also pinned this on pintere
I would like this printer to print pictures. The printer I have now doesn’t do a very good job.
I’d use it to print out worksheets, coupons, and schedule charts.
I’d love to use this printer to print coupons (some of them could be used for back to school stuff, right?).

I’d use it to finally print pics of my babies!
My husband would love to use it for his classes. He keeps his school computer in our bedroom so little hands don’t get to it and hates to have to come out to the kitchen to hook up the printer. I would love to be able to print coupons from my tablet. I pinned this but don’t have a twitter account
I would use it to print worksheets for my daughter who is having a hard time with her hand writing.
I would use the printer to print handwriting paper, worksheets, coloring pages, reading pages and…possibly most importantly…CHORE CHARTS. 🙂
