After reading so many positive reviews here about how good this printer is, I bought one two weeks ago from B&H. Got it the day after I ordered it.
Then I needed to endure the excruciating process of preparing the Canon required rebate paper work. Thought I made copies of all documentation, but the one with the rebate website address for checking one’s rebate status is nowhere in sight.
Two questions: 1. Approximately how long a wait for receipt of rebate?
2. Does anyone here still have that website address, based on the purchase, preferably recently. Websites can change without notice. If you do, would you please send me that address? That will be much appreciated. If there is more than one address Canon has used, that will most likely end the effort
I might get the info from Canon, but thought I would get a quicker response here.
6 week, yes i bought 2 spaced a year inbetween, why? $150 for a new one> $!19 fo set of ink cartridges. so i got anew printer with 1 year warranyt. haha then the second one stopped working, canon replaced it with a refirb, including full set of cartridges. when t a tear comes up illl buy a new one and give away first. i did have to get a few black cartridges aling the way. superb printer by thway
Yes, you do have to jump through some hoops, but getting a couple of hundred dollars is worth it. I'd even jump through real hoops for a couple of hundred dollars. An address that someone else used in the past would probably not work because those rebates change all the time. If you don't do everything just right, you won't get the rebate. I bet you can contact them and they will give you the info you need.

I have already visited the rebate website and used the directions to get the status of my rebate. Reply said no record of my application. I am hoping the reason is that it is too soon for the rebate entity to get the application on record. It was mailed week before last. If it does not arrive at the rebate site, I will not get the rebate as there is only one UPC on the box, thus no 2nd chance. In hindsight, I should have sent it with delivery confirmation.

Actually, if you read the fine print, there are some limitations on its use. For example, you can't exchange it for cash or use it to pay the tip at a restaurant, etc.
I bought a pair of Pro 10s a couple of years ago, with rebates, and I think mine took 6-8 weeks to arrive. And it took a while before they even showed up on the Canon web site as in process. It's just how they work. (I think they were using a third party that did rebate processing, and the speculation was that the third party did all the processing for every rebate program going on in the country, so their volume was enormous, and Canon printers represented only a tiny fraction of their work.)
