    What on earth is this rambling about? Certainty not printing on art paper.

    OK here it is! It works!

    Question: I am using Qimage and have selected the ICC profile for Canson watercolor paper. Driver does not manage color. Does the media type setting make any difference? Seems redundant.

    30 sheets 12x18 Canson watercolor paper at michaels for $9.99. Also Canson website has ICC profile for pro100 among others. Printed first with just matte(dull). Printed with Canson profile-far better

    Where to buy Canon Pro-100 carts?

    The "body" is the zombie home of your next pro100 when your print head dies or the waste tank fills up.

    Is there a better ink monitor for pro 100

    Accidentally answered my own question. Just set my phone browser to the pro100 url. Get this:

    How is ink level determined?

    From observed data it would seem that the printer recognizes a full count and counts down from there. If the prism detector later shows a change if state that confirms the count. But is not really necessary as observed from early tests. I would think that the printer uses a strategy to protect...

    How is ink level determined?

    From an engineering viewpoint only the transition from opaque to reflective can be used to start down-counting. The printer cannot use the current state of the sensor or it would get nowhere. At least that's how I would code it. I woukd think it reads the sensor for a cart and writes it's state...

    Canon Print for Android

    O am only using canon paper. The point is the papers listed by Canon Print android software for the Pro100 are what I showed. The same app for the 9020 lists the full set of canon papers. See photo below.

    New Canon Pixma TS series

    No time for to refill 50. I'm too busy counting nozzles. Can't find 6000 of them. Where could they be?

    How is ink level determined?

    The data I'm trying to collect is the weight just as the reservoir goes empty and the weight when the printer says "low". BTW - was 32+ gm with the orange clip on? Seems like you couldn't overfill by 5 ml.

    How is ink level determined?

    Cleaned and dry cli42 are 13.6 gm. My full, new ones are 27.4 gm. So that's about 13.8 ml of ink. If 1/2 the ink is in the reservoir (I haven't measures that yet) the sensor would detect 1/2 full. The low indication would be counted down from there. I'll try to remember to weigh at that point.

    Canon Print for Android

    The papers choices are extensive with this app for my TS9020. But they are severely limited for the pro 100 (see image). I typically use Pro Luster or Matte -are any of these choices useful? (The tablet app is convenient for those days I need to be WindowsFree. )

    Pro 100 Long term storage

    I have a slightly different problem.I can get a "like new" pro-100. I have immediate use for the partially used carts but I want to store the print head for backup way down the road. What is the best way to do this?
