    Pro-100 B&W Comments

    mikling, Thank you for your comment. What I normally use for BW printing are scans from BW film. Then they are processed slightly in Photoshop (dust, etc.) and brought to Lightroom and printed from there using the Canon's plugin. So they are real BW to begin with, have "the look", although it...

    Pro-100 B&W Comments

    I am also finding (during my very short experience with Pro-100 so far) that when using the Canon paper, I can get rather neutral b/w, but paper is plastiky. Good for framing but does not feel right in hands. But when I use Ilford Gold Silk Mono, for example, which I like a lot better than...

    Pro-100 B&W Comments

    I certainly would not be willing to do that. I reprinted some of my old color pictures (that were ordered from Mpix and likes) and was very impressed with colors. Would not want to give it up. Plus, even when I print b/w by hand, I never get completely neutral b/w, and I dont like it as much. I...

    Pro-100 B&W Comments

    Forgive me please, can you elaborate on these two sentences. They contradict each other (in my simple mind). So is it or is it not? I am new to printers (not new to hand-printing in dark room though) Also, you mentioned swellable papers. Are they still in existence? It was my understanding that...

    Canon pro-100 printer - "starter" or full size cartridges

    It's a quick question, please: I cannot figure out, are the cartridges that came with Canon pro-100 printer are "straters" or full size? I want to get my estimates on how much I can print with a new set based on what I already printed with original one (some of my cartriges are empty now) Thank...

    Inkjet dye print UV protective spray - is it worth it and which one?

    Hello, I wanted to ask a question (and keep in mind I am brand new to inkjet printing): did anybody do any "real life" research on UV protective spray? How much protection does the spray really give to a print? And which spray is better- Krylon, Lyson, Sureguard.... Thank you in advance! Mikhail

    Dye ink fade test; OCP vs IS vs IR vs fotorite

    Hello and thank you for the interesting and useful comparison study. I wanted to ask a question (and keep in mind I am brand new to inkjet printing): did anybody do any similar "real life" research with an additional factor of UV protective spray? How much protection does the spray really give...
