bcc2 — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 12:15:46 GMT

im having trouble on how to print a long document 8.5"x14" on my tr7120. there's no option in the printer paper size for legal 8.5"x14". there's no rear paper tray either, the front paper tray dont have the space for a legal size paper. checked every option on my printers preferences but nothing. i bought this printer for its ADF to scan long documents and didnt tried to print a long documents thinking it comes standard on every printer to be able to print long paper. its been 3 months passed already and this is my first time printing long ones.

hope to hear from you guys soon and looking forward for your help. thank you

Hi there,

Thanks for joining the Canon Community!

I took a look and see the PIXMA TR7120 does not have legal size as a supported media size, so your printer will not be able to print on that paper. If you'd like to take a look at your printer's full specifications you can HERE.

Hope that clarifies!

i tried that one but theres no option to enter the size of the legal paper, and the front tray paper does not have space for 8.5x14. i can custom size the page size to 8.5x14 but for the printer paper size it only max to 8.5x11.

Hi Derrick,

It appears we have conflicting info between website specs and the tech sheet. I'll reach out to our web team to confirm which is correct!

I apologize for the misinformation in my post. Apparently Canon had two specifications pages for your printer and one apparently has incorrect paper handling sizes. This one should be correct.

https://www.usa.canon.com/shop/p/pixma-tr7120

from the above support site:

Supported Paper Sizes

4” x 6”, 5” x 5” (Square), 5” x 7”, 7” x 10”, 8” x 10”, Letter (8.5” x 11”), U.S. #10 Envelopes, Card Size (91mm x 55mm)

These Canon printers support 8.5 x 14 printing:

Canon printer models that support 8.5 x 14 inch paper printing include the Canon imageCLASS MF751Cdw II and the Canon imageCLASS MF753Cdw II, both designed for office use. Additionally, the Canon PIXMA TR8620a is also capable of printing on this paper size.

What's the best thing for me to do now that my printer cannot print on 8.5x14? It's almost 3 months old now. Thank you for your reply.

Hi again,

We'd recommend checking the return policy with the merchant you purchased it from to see if a return or exchange is possible!

Hope this helps!

Hi BCC2! Thanks for contributing to the Canon Community.

I am sorry to say that your PIXMA TR7120 will not be able to print on legal size paper. While it does have an ADF that will allow you to scan legal size paper, it will not print on that size. We do have other printers that support printing on legal size paper.

I understand that there may be some information available online stating that the printer does support legal size paper. However, that information is wrong. The User's manual for the printer does not mention that legal size paper is supported and shows that the maximum paper length and width (for printing) is 8.50 x 11.69 in. (215.9 x 297.0 mm). You can use the following link to see all of the supported paper sizes for the TR7120:
https://ij.manual.canon/ij/webmanual/Manual/All/TR7100%20series/EN/UG/ug-280.html

If you need a similar printer that will print on legal size paper and has an ADF, you can consider the following models: TR8620. TR7520, TR4720.

Thanks again
