:) does the unused paper store well? I mean does it get discolored over time?

Did that once too. I find the quality of the paper is quite good.

Like Fotofreek, I also use Staples photo Supreme double sided matte paper for printing cards. They are 8.5x11 inches, 61 lbs or 230g/sm. The printers I used are mainly IP4500 and MP970.

Played around with Profile Prism last weekend. Just want to report back that it worked well. Any color casts are gone. The profiles made by this route works best with glossy>pearl>matte. The profile made for the matte paper is acceptable but not as good as those made for the other two.

yes, I second the use of those squeeze bottles. Make refilling a snap w/o having to clean syringes etc.

photo cyan and photo magenta on MP970 Yellow on IP4500 MP610 - too new - probably black - my son's school work.

.....if you're getting bronzing on some paper as in grays don't appear neutral you probably need to adjust your color profile....... As mentioned before, bronzing with MIS/Kirkland glossy only occurs with black or very dark area eg black hair. No color shift that I notice. This is also specific...

on30trainman.....Kirkland Glossy paper seems to give a slight greenish tinge with many inks including Canon OEM inks. Profile Prism profiles have cleaned that up. I have not been as successful in profiling Matte papers,....... Received Profile Prism from DDI and had a chance to play with it...

Steve, It's not clearly stated that the Canon MIS is from IS. It is assumed by a number of people because on their web site, they say the following: inksupply.com/imagespec.cfm Get Image Specialists Inks from MIS MIS Associates, Inc. is the North American distributor of Image Specialists Inks...

Steve, Yes,the "bronzing" I am seeing with MIS inks is the matte appearance on the dark/black area with the glossy Kirkland paper. With other papers, it appears to be fine. Perhaps MIS inks are not the same as Precision colors inks as it's rumored to be. I must try Precision colors inks one of...

I am sure it's OK but I would consider the following - most compounds are less soluble at low temperature as compared to higher temperature. If the dye is near its solubility limit at room temperature, then there's a possibility that it may precipitate out. I don't know what the solubility of...

Open CD-Labelprint>File>Select paper>new Then adjust away and save. My Sony Hub printable's inner circle is set at 24mm.

Fry's has MP610 for 49.99 (no rebate) this week.

Today (Dec13th) at Fry's (USA), MP610 is 59.99USD with no rebate. :P

Thanks Steve W. I'll probably will look into PP in the near future when I have time to play around. The color matching is pretty good (with my eyes) when I slightly adjust the printer settings. My IP4500 is spot on (hobbi and Kirkland) but the MP970 is slightly off, relative speaking, since the...

Amazon has MP970 on sales for 179USD WITHOUT rebate The copying and scanning feature is excellent. The image quality of printed photos is very good. on30trainman: I note that you have Profile Prism, does this work well for you? I'm thinking of getting it but is unsure whether it will make...

I have to say Mikling is right on the mark regarding the the 3 printers, 970, 4500 and 3500. I actually have the 3500 as well but have never used it. I took out the ink carts as spares for the other 2 printers. If I have to choose, I would choose 970 over 4500 as a photo printer. I now use...

I have both MP970 and Ip4500 (and MP780) for a while now. They both produce very nice prints. If you are mostly printing 4X6, you will be hard pressed to tell the difference. With larger prints, the 970 may have a slight edge but you will need to squint a bit to see the difference. The 970...
