    Canon Pixma Pro 100s: printing on Matte paper at standard quality blocks print head?

    The carts are genuine OEM but refilled with good quality replacement inks (Octo Inkjet in the UK). I've used the same carts for about 2 years now and first time I've had problems. Could be the carts though....with it being the yellow one I always get suspicious that it's a "yellow-jello" issue...

    Canon Pixma Pro 100s: printing on Matte paper at standard quality blocks print head?

    I mostly use my Pixma Pro 100s for printing on glossy vinyl sticker material and so have the print settings on "Photo Paper Glossy II" and print quality set to "high". I've occasionally had issues with blocked channels on the print head but these are few and far between and can usually be...

    Also: second question - does anyone know how to contact Canon support? I've looked at their website but it's the usual FAQs etc and no obvious way to email them.

    Pixma Pro 100s - not printing in centre of page, adjustment options?

    I have had a Canon Pixma Pro 100s for about 5 years now and often use it to print banners, capes, flags etc for toys. I have a material I can print on both sides and then use a cutting machine to cut the items out. Usually I print on one side, flip the page over and then print a mirror image on...

    Adjust horizontal print position on Canon Pixma Pro 100s

    I've had a Canon Pixma Pro 100s for a few years and one of the things I use it for is to print out 2 sided flags on thin cardboard. I've set up my art package so that I have two versions of the artwork that are exactly mirrored so I print one side and re-insert the page back into the printer the...

    Canon Pixma Pro 100s - "yellow jello" issue

    I have been using a Canon Pixma Pro 100s for a couple of years now to print custom posters, stickers etc that I sell as a serious hobby. I switched from the OEM inks almost straight away to using inks from a company called OctoInk (I'm in the UK). I didn't clean out the ink cartridges first, I...

    I have a hobby that I also use to make some extra cash and that is making stickers for toys. I currently have a Pixma Pro 100s with third party replacement inks. I normally use white vinyl sticker material to print on but get the odd request for stickers on a transparent medium. So far I haven't...

    AdobeRGB option in Printer Profile (Canon Driver)

    I'm probably not being clear in what I'm asking....so this Canon website: https://ij.manual.canon/ij/webmanual/PrinterDriver/W/MG2500 series/1.0/EN/PPG/dg-c_color_correction03.html The first paragraph states: Printing with ICC Profiles When the image data has a specified input ICC profile, you...

    AdobeRGB option in Printer Profile (Canon Driver)

    Hi yes I know it's not a printer profile, what I mean is that even if I install the Adobe .icc file, it's not selectable anywhere even though it's in the right directory.

    AdobeRGB option in Printer Profile (Canon Driver)

    Can you tell me where you got the adobe.icm profile from? I've been trying to get the Adobe ones but even from their own website they don't seem to work. If you go here: https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/iccprofiles/icc_eula_win_end.html It allows you to download a .zip file with a load...

    AdobeRGB option in Printer Profile (Canon Driver)

    I've been trying to get my Canon Pixma Pro 100s to print in Adobe RGB colour gamut instead of sRGB. I spent a lot of time trying to download and install the AdobeRGB .icc file but it never seemed to work (can't select it from Printer Profile in the driver and the only .icc file I can get from...

    Downloaded AdobeRGB.icc file - how do I use it?

    I've downloaded the AdobeRGB.icc file from Adobe and have placed the file in the following folder: C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\color Which I understand is the correct place. In fact I've got a couple of custom .icc profiles installed in there and they seem to be working properly. The...

    Printing in Adobe RGB colour space on a Canon Pixma Pro 100s

    Okay this is probably going to be a fairly long post so bear with me (I'll to a tl,dr at the end :D ) So as a side hobby / business I make custom stickers for Lego sets. I design them using Inkscape, export the images as .png and then import them into a package called Sure Cuts A Lot (SCAL for...

    PrintFab Query

    So I've been looking into the PrintFab software as a way to print more saturated colours. Before I go tinkering around with it I want to go over my situation here and ask some advice (if anyone on here knows how to use PrintFab), I design custom stickers for Lego sets. I design them in a...
