This reminds me of the times I refilled Canon consumer printers with dye ink (the same category I suppose as the tested HP products). Both brands have the same printhead technology too. I managed with a lot of trial and error to maintain some printers for some time, and the average layman most...

I've cut Canson cast A2 to 355x584mm (with 329x676 one of the maximum sizes on the PRO-10 and PRO-9500) to print a poster. If this could be true in 2025 !

FYI PRO-10 ink levels after a few calendars with "regular" matte high settings. No use of CO and MBK. Wonder if PRO-300 changed something.

You can see this "globbing" on some patches with the PRO-10 too in particular on the PDF (where my scanner tends to exaggerate). In high quality setting the printing is bi-directional, since the total ink consumption is not much higher I suppose less ink is applied at once. Good to hear the...

So after 15 years in store the long time survival of most of my papers should be the same independent of the original quality and price ? Nevertheless you can't hide the huge differences in appearance and color rendition. The yellowing doesn't matter a lot (for most subjects) since I make...

I reorganized my paper stock by surface yesterday, and I placed the Photo Rag Baryta on the SATIN shelf (others are GLOSSY, PEARL, and MATTE). In my opinion, the effect and purpose of these (by @thebestcpu cited) papers are quite different from the high gloss, high white RC papers discussed...

In my observation cast papers can have - probably due to the fabrication process - a smoother surface than many resin coated ones, where in particular for the cheaper ones the paper structure stays more or less visible. But RC papers always have a plastic coating on the back, making them...

I sniffed at my papers again and the KODAK Ultra Premium Photo Paper is most close to the Canon PP-201 Glossy II Photo Paper Plus now on sale at Canon for € 12,24/20 A4 https://store.canon.be/canon-pp-201-glossy-ii-photo-paper-plus-a4-20-vel/2311B019/ Both are 5 star papers. Canon PT-101 Pro...

As reported yesterday, I was very impressed with the KODAK Ultra Premium Photo Paper on sale at Amazon (€ 7.99/20 A4, € 9.99 for 25). If I didn't have enough glossy A4 in stock I would take more (also since the back feels plastic and has the Kodak logo printed, not so nice for photobooks or...

Try to use all my paper and ink before I'm not vertical anymore ;)

Indeed, @pharmacist .

While my Colormunki was doing overtime the Amazon courier delivered a pack 25 A4 KODAK Ultra Premium Photo Paper 280g (€ 9,99, 40ct/sheet). https://www.amazon.com.be/dp/B08YXLX7Y7?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This is definitely RC - it seems all plastic - the surface is smoother than the...

Qimage is indeed a weird program, but you can do things with it LR cannot. Anyway, my latest tests on cast and matte papers indicate that I won't need the margin hack soon. I made some profiles with "Other Fine Art 1" settings. Canon MBK (genuine LUCIA) does not adhere on the cast papers I...

It seems to me on the PRO-10 the black level of PK is enhanced considerably with the CO coating (the latter not been absorbed fast enough on my casts papers and puddling/smearing). And to have sufficiently high gamut on matte papers you need to use the "Fine Art" settings. These not only use...

Sadly enough Aldi doesn't sell it's famous (and cheap) RC paper anymore. For my calendars I need 100-150 A4's every year. So I searched for leftovers in my stock and found cast papers of different (or no) brands. (these papers have a cardboard back where you can write on with a pencil, while RC...

I have the PRO-9500 II and PRO-10 (not the -S model) on WIN11 without any issues. The PRO-10 prints (as does the Maxify) also via Wifi from a laptop with 2024H2 and Android phones and tablet. PRO-100 should work also. Merry Christmas !

Someone in Belgium needs a PRO-300 (incl spare ink+papers etc) ? https://www.2dehands.be/v/computers-en-software/printers/m2214642341-canon-imageprograf-pro-300-canon-selphy-cp1500

IMO it is a random problem - or two of them occurring together - that puts the printer in this mode. Unless you get it regularly I wouldn't worry too much. BTW the phone company installed a gorgeous new fiber network and Wi-Fi system here (expensive, but you have not much choice here in...

I use the Canon large format Lucia BK without problems in my Maxify.

It seams an isolated problem and not a printhead fault. I suppose you tried cleaning the contacts (where the cyan cart connects in the printhead) with some alcohol ? Did you try a new cyan cart ? Otherwise remove the printhead and clean there (although I wonder the problem should be there).
