    Canon Pro-100 001

    This changes everything! I have just used the Precision Colors profile for Kirkland paper with OEM ink. The print is the same file used for the two Canon papers. As reported earlier, the Canon profiles are not very good, and the Precision Colors profiles are great for those papers and OEM...

    Canon Pro-100 001

    I have just received this printer and will share my experiences with this printer. The Canon Pro9000 using OCP ink has been my photo printer for some time. I make profiles for all my photo printers, and the Pro9000 with custom profiles for selected paper and OCP ink has produced the best...

    CanonPro-100

    There may be a non obvious reason to consider buying the Pro-100. The Pro-100 is a replacement for the Pro 9000. The PRO-9000 uses red and green ink. I don't know of any other printer using red and green ink. Finding red and green ink for the Pro-9000 has always been a problem. I could not...

    CanonPro-100

    cls: My posts weren't to try to sell a printer, just information for those who have an interest in this printer. If you don't like the printer, just don't buy it for a net $89.00 plus 50 sheets of 13x19 photo paper. My info was for those who have an interest in this printer. For those, the...

    CanonPro-100

    I will receive my Canon Pro-100 tomorrow, and the issue of third party ink is at hand. Precision Colors is the only source I can find for Pro-100 third party ink. I have been using OCP in my Canon Pro9000, but OCP says that they dont have ink for the Pro-100, and it isnt on their list to do...

    Canon Pro 9000 Problem

    Thanks! But, I don't how to say it any plainer, my only problem was not using the chip resetter correctly. Once I corrected my error -- not a print head error -- everything is fine. I have since made 50 8.5x11 prints that are perfect. I say again. There is no problem with proper operator...

    Canon Pro 9000 Problem

    Tin Ho, the only issue I have ever had with my Pro9000 was improperly resetting the chip. Without operator error, there are no issues. Wil

    Canon Pro 9000 Problem

    Thanks The Hat. I just checked, and it is set to turn off at 10 minutes. It is truly amazing what an improvement in trouble free printing makes by Canon's method of turning the printer off. Wil

    Canon Pro 9000 Problem

    After correcting my operator error, I final got back to printing 25 8.5 x 11 prints on the magnificent Canon Pro 9000. Ill share a few things that make it great. 1. I dont know if this is common with all Canon inkjet printers. When you turn the printer off with the printer On/Off switch, the...

    Canon Pro 9000 Problem

    Thanks to everyone. The problem seems to have been "Operator Error" with the resetter. It has been some time since I refilled and I forgot to wait for the second steady light from the resetter when resetting the chip. After doing it correctly, the problem vanished. Thanks again! Wil

    I'll give the test picture one more try! 1. I only show it to demonstrate what properties a good test file should have. If you have a complaint, I think it should be about what properties it tests. 2. It is just a very comptessed JPEG from the original TIFF file. 3. It is not from a print...

    That would certainly get the job done. In fact, my first post on this issue recommended that exact process. I changed my mind about the water thing after I thought about it for a while, and it did seem to give a problem on one CLI-8 cartridge. I had a very hard time draining the water with...
