Just wanted to update everyone on my quest to find out "Best Practices" for my particular workflow w. the Pro-1000. I decided to write Canon Tech Support w. the questions I have (numbered below) concerning best settings for my workflow. I received a quick response with the following answers (in...

Thanks. Experience is worth a thousand opinions. Do you have the maintenance routines on your Pro-1000 set to their defaults? Do you leave your printer on and then allow it go to sleep? Do you have automatic nozzle check turned ON?

I feel your pain, Wilson. My Pro-1000 used 60% of the entire ink-set just to initialize the first time. That's about $400US to fill the feed lines, reservoirs and the head. I don't recall my Epson 3880 doing that. But to Canon's credit, full size ink carts were included w. the Pro-1000, as...
