I have used Grandad35 profile for my Canon I9900, inkgrabber inks and Kirkland Costco paper. Before using this profile I fought with the green cast problem with the inkgrabber inks (old formual). I was floored when I used his profile. The greys came out grey. In fact I was so impressed I've started re-printing about 50 photos that I have hung on my wall and office to get the new results. These are as good or better then anything I got with canon inks and canon paper. These profiles are absoulutely wonderful and if Grandad35 wanted to sell them he could. Give it a try and find out for youself, just make sure you follow directions and make all of the appropriate adjustment required to use the profile correctly. I owe Grandad35 big time for this profile. Incidently I used the same profile using Epson "colorlife photo paper" and got the same great results

Canon iP8500 printer with Kirkland paper and BCI-6R, G, PM, PC, Y, M, BK, C compatible carts from
www.bulkinkjetcarts.com chinese manufacturer #2 (www.inklabcartridge.com).

The above printer profile Completely corrected the green cast I was getting in brown and black colors.

All colors on test prints now are as good as with OME inks.

I would like to congratulate and thank grandad for producing this profile.
