Was told about this forum by a friend and member (3dogs). I have a Canon Pro 100, had it for a few months now and its working well within the confines of my knowledge. I am sure there is a lot I could learn from other owners on this forum. I use the Canon Pro Platinum (when I can find it, one seller told me it was no longer being sold in Australia?) its a paper I like for its strong blacks especially for monochrome work. For colour I mostly use Canson...its reasonably priced and handles subtle colour well. Have tried Ilford which I like but that is more expensive and is also becoming difficult to find (I think there are company changes that are effecting its distribution (in Australia at least).
I have downloaded profiles for Canson and Ilford but when don't full understand how to match the paper type from that offered (mostly Canon)?
I have found a fairly cheap price for original Canon ink but they are quite small ink cassettes and don't last long which I can live with as my printer is only used for camera club competition and not used for any volume printing. I will start reading earlier posts and see what I can learn...any comments or suggestions are very welcome. Regards all, Mike
