Some interesting reading here... Thanks!

I find that recalibrating every 2 weeks keeps the colors on the monitor looking really good.

This is something I didn't know, that there is no "gray" area to the print head... it either works or it doesn't, assuming that I didn't burn it up in the case of the Canon's. Some of these variations I have no control over, however, right now I do have a few different kinds of paper that I...

I was more curious to know that as you accumulate more and more prints on your printer, are these original ICC profiles that you've been using from day one, whether its from the original manufacturer (ie, Canon) OR from the ink set provider (ie, Percision Colors), are they still the best to use...

As our printers start to age, how long do we need to wait before custom profiles are really necessary?

Thanks for all your work!

Where did you get the colorful icons for the carts?

Now all you have to do is make one for the Pro-1 and Pro-10 and we're all set. :)

This chart could keep some valuable information... when you change out the entire set, write down the weight of each cart before you refill it.

Nice deal. Thanks!

My experiences tell me to let it sit a couple of days to dry. If you're using a scale, it should weigh approximately 13.6 grams empty.

I need to check the for sale section more often... :)

I will recommend that he dump the print head...

Are there any signs to look for when you go to replace a printhead? For example, if you get a "Great deal" on a printer, how would you know when to purchase a brand new printhead? Possibly check to see if the original printhead was clogged?

The new print head came from Canon USA, so no chance of any tom foolery here. As to why a new printhead was installed, I wasn't told. Thanks for all the information about printheads... very informative!

I have a friend that put a new printhead into a Pro-100 and now the printer doesn't print at all. Can someone enlighten me on the procedure on how to visually check out a printhead? I'm curious if the problem is truely in the printhead (brand new sealed from Canon) or is it the printer itself.

@PeterBJ Thanks for this analysis... very informative.

I do see the TPAGE (TTL=00012)... so the previous owner did print a couple images. I have 7 of them right now...:) It will be one way to start meeting some of you guys!

I have to admit that this was HEAVY! I have a shelf unit on wheels and I placed it on the top and it was all I can do to wrestle it onto it. That's right, I'm at... 50%. Your instructions worked like a charm. The P_ON is now 8. Correct if I'm wrong, I believe that would be the nozzle check...
