All components are nylon and plastic where possible, plastic is flimsy and important components like springs are small and presumably old stock - and this was ultimately the root cause of my problem.
The Canon MG5750 (and printers of its ilk) are designed to a price, and that is cheap. The fix, as it turns out, is really simple! I put up with this for a while but an attempt to print some documents evening pushed me into investigating. Soon after that, I ended up having to nudge each sheet of paper in to the printer, it was unable to take in paper itself. Soon after buying mine, the paper feed (take-up of paper from the tray into the transport mechanism) started to behave irregularly. Research indicates it's sadly a common issue with this range of Canon printers. Unfortunately, one of the fundamental printer requirements - loading its own paper during print jobs - was a little lacking with this unit.
I never expected it to be perfect, I assumed it would at least be able to reliably accomplish basic things like print text onto paper. Handy at £45 (another set of genuine ink for it costs the same, go figure). I have a Canon Pixma MG5750, a Currys PC World purchase when I needed a cheap multifunction printer fast.
