The fact that you have to download a third-party app to use Google Cloud Print from an Android device - we used Cloud Print - only added to our frustration. More annoyingly, installing the firmware requires a Standard-B USB cable, which doesn't ship with the PIXMA MG6220. Our printer didn't ship with the latest firmware installed.
While it sounds great in theory, getting Google Cloud Print to work on the MG6220 proved to be a pain. Like the HP Photosmart 5520, Epson WorkForce 845 and Kodak ESP 3.2, the PIXMA MG6220 sports Google Cloud Print connectivity, which lets users send files directly to the printer using a variety of Google products, including Chrome, Chrome OS, Gmail for mobile and Google Docs for mobile. We only wish we could send photos directly to the printer while browsing our gallery in Picasa, not just the other way around. PIXMA Cloud Print works fairly quickly - after connecting to our Picasa account, we printed a 4 x 6 photograph in 1 minute and 6 seconds, a little less than 10 seconds longer than it took to print the same picture over a standard wireless connection.

Inputting the username and password can be a pain, as you must select each character separately using the scroll wheel, but once the printer is connected to an album, it can access photos at any time (provided it has a connection to the Internet). Accessing photos first requires connecting to the online gallery via the MG6220's control panel. In addition to standard wireless printing, the PIXMA MG6220 allows users to print pictures directly from online photo albums such as CANON iMAGE GATEWAY and Picasa, without having to use a computer.
Ultimately, it took more than 15 minutes to set up the MG6220, compared with the less than 10 minutes for the HP Photosmart 5520 and Kodak ESP 3.2. After that, alignment took requires another 5 minutes of waiting while the printer went through its automated motions. After we installed the ink cartridges, the PIXMA spent about 4 minutes clearing the print head. Setting up the PIXMA MG6220 was simple but time-consuming. The AC and Ethernet ports are on the back of the printer. Just to the right of the output tray are a USB Port, Memory Stick Duo reader, SD card reader and CompactFlash card reader.
