    Pro-100 Print Performance Anxiety

    Viewing photos on the web at Facebook resolution, most of your work looks great. It's when you print that art where the rubber meets the road. Before I bought this Pro-100 printer I had many photos in mind I wanted to print, some 8x10, but only a handful at 13x19. Now I have doubts. The...

    Pro-100 Cleaning Page

    There are a number of function available from printer maintenance, to print check pages. What I don't know is whether those pages, or in fact other sample print pages posted in this and other forums, exercise all pins/nozzles.

My printer, a Canon iP3000, will not print in Black until it has been through a few cleaning cycles and possibly a couple of "deep cleaning" procedures as well. The machine then works fine for a few hours, but the next day, it will...
