does it scan and copy

The previous answer ("Copies, but doesn't scan") is WRONG. I've checked the printer and the users manual, and the iP8720 does NOT have scan capability. It is a printer only--not a fax, not a scanner, not a copier. If you need to scan and copy, then you need a different machine. The main value of the iP8720 is for large-format (up to about 13" by 19") printing. If you don't need that capability, then you'd be much better off with a standard-format all-in-one.

Does the PIXMA i8720 handle card stock well? I run a very small greetings card business, and my current printer murders card stock.

The heaviest we've printed is 140 lb paper by Strathmore. We also print greeting and post cards; aside of drymounting photo paper to card stock (whose photo quality absolutely can't be beat), the best paper we've found for iP8720 direct printing is Canson Stamping Cards (beats Strathmore's inket offerings hands-down; we found it on Dick Blick's site). I don't know if Canson publishes this specific product's weight, but it's probably around ~110 lbs.

What are people's experience with Compatible inks vs. Canon inks? The price difference is huge. Is there any down-side?

I have used Blake Printing Supply for my Canon MX922 and imagine/hope I'll have the same experience with this model. I think THIS IS THE LINK: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00USJABWU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 So far, they have been GREAT! I use them mostly for graphics on canon matte photo paper for making cards and signs, and can't believe the quality and value $. Highly recommend. Will update if I do not get same result with this printer that I am about to use for the first time, tomorrow!!! I hope they NEVER stop making it; could NOT afford canon branded ink

where do you feed the 11x17 paper? In the tray underneath or does it have to go up top? And if up top, how many sheets does it hold so that I'm not babysitting all day for a print job.

Load paper.(1) Open the paper support, and pull it out.(2) Open the front cover gently. Important If the disc tray guide (A) is open, close it. (3) Pull out the paper output tray. (4) Slide the paper guides (B) to open them, and load the paper in the center of the rear tray WITH THE PRINT SIDE FACING YOU.(5) Slide the paper guides (B) to align them with both sides of the paper stack.Do not slide the paper guides too hard. The paper may not be fed properly. Important Always load paper in the portrait orientation (C). Loading paper in the landscape orientation (D) can cause paper jams.NOTE: This printer is a quality printer for excellent copies. If you are looking for a production type printer where you can do many copies, it would be best that you go to a copy store and have them do it. If you are seeking a few select prints then this would be for you. I believe that about 25 copies is all that can be loaded at a time.
