    CANON PRO !))

    Did you already check the Canon site for a new driver? At least here in Germany there is one for Catalina. Whether it works for you I can’t tell, because I am still on Mojave.

    Seeking advice on a suitable Canon printer for home photo printing

    So it is all on you now. If I were you at the moment, I would go for XP-900 and start with refilling with 105/106 inks. I wouldn't consider a A4 printer as a hobby photographer. You miss some possibilities without the A3+ format, but you start with a smaller investment. Take the money for...

    Seeking advice on a suitable Canon printer for home photo printing

    a) Compared to a cheap printer for office documents, I would say no. Printing on normal office paper with the Pro-100 gives prints with deep blacks and a big risk for overinking the paper. Double sided printing means to manually turn the paper with a big risk, that the opposite side shines...

    Seeking advice on a suitable Canon printer for home photo printing

    If you want to go further on with photo printing, I give you the advice not to go smaller than A3, better A3+. Personally, I can can go over A2+ (Canon Pro-1000). Only for first impressions I still print A4. It is too small, after you can have the larger format. So in your position look for an...

    Hello, I am Maximilian from Germany

    I started a few years ago with photo printing and own several printers for different purposes. The high end model is a Canon Pro-1000 only used with OEM inks followed by a Pro-100s. The second one is better to transport to others for demonstrations, but still an incredible printer. I use it with...

    New ink fading test results by Aardenburg Imaging

    I am not that much interested in 3rd party inks. So for my Pro-1000 not many papers are in the data base. Till now I know that Moab Entrada 300 g/m2 is good. That is not much for the Lucia Pro inks.

    Looking for a printer for duplex printing 4x6 color postcards

    You can do that with non RC papers. There may be cast coated papers, witch have a glossy or luster side and the back is paper. It is also possible on higher end papers. I did this several times for example with the Hahnemühle Cards. It is best if you have a printer with pigmented ink to avoid...

    Going from Canon OEM to Octoinkjet ink on pro 100s

    I did the same with precision colors 1. No problems 2. Flushed to completely white with a window cleaner containing ammonia. 3. For differences make a print and look whether you are confident. If you have not flushed all it may take some time till all old ink is out. Just print. For the best...

    Drying time for black and white prints

    Look for glassine paper. You can get it in sheets. For longterm storage all I found is not to stack more than 25 sheets in a box. The box should be made with archival material and PAT certified. Humidity always less than 60 % and cool 14 °C if possible. I have no problems with higher...

    Pro-100 compared to Pro-10 color

    @martincregg, you have no color managed workflow, as you set it to printer manages color. So the driver is expecting the use of OEM inks. For the Pro-100 you have PC inks. They may be very near in color rendition, but are not the same. If PC inks would bring exactly the same colors to the print...
