A surviver here. PRO-10 and 9500II still going strong with plenty of ink (paper and printheads) hoarded. My best inks (OEM large format) are for the PRO-10. The 9500 is for office work with leftovers from all the 3th party inks I ever tried ;). Best refillable printers ever made IMO. On the...

No, this function makes a lot of scratching noise, maybe it rubs the rollers clean.

The printer has a roller clean function RTFM:ep

Sorry, not the same error I got.

The PRO-9500 was difficult to work on (but the maintenance manual was available) the PRO-10 almost impossible, good luck with the PRO-300.

This printer has a steel rail as the Canon consumer printers, but should it wear that fast ? PS: you could try to grease it (I remember applying some on the round bars of my PRO-9500).

I do not own the PRO-300 but the PRO-10 and try to think with you. Since you suspect the printhead path, did you compare test prints in standard versus high quality settings (the latter I suppose does 2 passes) ? Happy Newyear.

Recent printers are more demanding on inks, when you put the SAE W20-50 oil from our youth in today's cars the engines won't make 250K km either.

As said, you can print very decent photos with the Maxify.

Good idea. Both the PRO-10 and Maxify printheads are very sturdy when you and print regularly (one every few weeks is enough, forget the nozzle print scheduling and other nonsense). Don't fiddle too much with inks either (Precision Colors, Octoink.co.uk and Canon large format inks - most...

Since I use the printer only for office documents I don't care about exact colours (although with the original inks I printed very nice photo's as a test). The (large format) C and Y did it good a long time without clogging (for one or another reason the Octopus office M was OK), but after the...

In my (rather long) experience I must agree the printhead is very different indeed (as been explained by @Artur5 some time ago). It is quite resistant to mistreatment (the nozzles do not burn so fast, they even seem to regenerate after some time) as long as you use appropriate inks (and print...

A Colormunki hoarder ;)

Great job! As we all found out, it isn't the cable but the (fading) position markers.

Don't worry about the CD, all software and documentation is online. Read it very carefully, it is not very straightforward, but I was able to create 2 instances of my PRO-10 (same software) one on USB and one networked (Wifi). Speed is the same, so if your printer is not more than 5m away, use...

You could try to do the cleaning with thicker material with a rough surface (cardboard cut from a box or something). Maybe it will catch the stuck piece. Or gently insert a piece of cardboard (or heavy photo paper) from the front...

My PRO 9500 Mark II too (although I had some spooling issues in the beginning, but it cleared itself after some time).

With prices of (expired) large format inks - pigments, not available for PRO-100/200 - going up I might reconsider the shipping costs...

You bet this is an Epson secret. As far as I understood one of the reasons they don't need CO ( gloss equalizer) as Canon.
