I'm sure this has been asked or commented on before, but I sure can't find anything with the Search function. Nada, zero, zip. This is more of a curiosity question than thinking I'm going to sell archival prints or something. Or worrying about prints in the house light. For the cost per ml...

Setting aside so many other criteria, pluses and minuses about this Canon series....AND I would presume Epson's Eco Tanks....it's wonderful to print and print and print w/o dreading the next round of refilling cartridges.

I more than appreciate all of the answers to my many questions in the last few weeks as I transition to a G2060 for hum drum daily use, including my questions about available Mega Tank CYM colors that I can use in my PRO-100. I realize that the latter has photo versions of some colors...

I'm pretty ignorant about the SW service tools. What would I be looking for for iP4500, Pro 100, and G2060? I have the service manual for the i4300. Links, sources for the other two printers? Many thanks!

So, I ordered a G2260 from Amazon. Days after setting up the printer I realized that they sent a G2060! The latter uses the same drivers, no surprise there. Am I missing out on anything not having the G2260? Since Canon no longer keeps "old" (two years?) printers up on line, I have no way of...

Since Canon no longer keeps overview information on their website........GRRRRRR......I don't know how they compare. I've owned both. I can pick up a 4300 NIB for $125. What will I miss out on not being the iP4500? I don't care about printing on CD's. What are CD's, anyway? (CD's. One of...

Despite being on this forum for years, I suddenly feel this a naive/newbie type question. But here goes...... Is there any difference between, say, magenta Chromalife inks between printers? Or, are all the CMYK colors the same, printer to printer? It's hard to believe that Canon would alter...

Having had Canon printers for almost a quarter century, I've seen several ink named ink types, the most recent one being Chromalife 100. For the dye inks, of course, not Pro-10 or CL5 PGBK pigment inks. My new G2020 Mega Tank has no such branding. Somewhere in the literature I say something...

I guess it will do. Y'all have read of my disasters with recent iP4500 experiences in a recent post. The G2060 is multi-purpose. However, at this point I'm unable to install the scan/copy driver. Grrrr...... In order to talk to someone I have to register and make an account. Grrr..... Both...

Maybe both. I've been using Canon printers for over twenty years, way back to the S series, BCI-6 carts. Possibly earlier. I've loved the iP3200?? and subsequent iP4300 and iP4500. I've had several of the former and of the latter. Still two old iP4500 for parts....or just can't bear to toss...

My Pro-100 has sat idle for three years with it unplugged. The other night I thought I'd fire it up. Dang, I got the alternating white power and orange paper feed lights. The Canon advice is to see your Canon Service Center........When I opened the lid, the print head did not move. A tug...

I've had this issue with my iP4500 and now on my PRO-100. The cartridge clicks in, it lights up. You close the top lid and after it has done its machinations, fourteen flashes of the orange light. Open the lid, the cartridge is dark. Rinse, lather, repeat....and repeat....and, etc. It is a...

I now have two surplus lower paper cassettes for the iP4500. Does anyone know what Pixma printers they may be compatible with? The part number? I know they aren't worth much, just hate sending things to the landfill. I'd rather someone might get some use from them. Thanks!

Other than a one, brief foray into Epson, I've been using Canon printers since the late 1990's. Some ancient ones, an S620? Anyway, moved on to the iPXXXX Pixma series, from way low model numbers (iP2000-ish?) to the iP4500. I also have a Canon PRO-100 when I want large or better photo prints...

I was a regular here a few years ago, now back with a major problem. I hope you can help! This could not have happened at a worse time! I have a display of 24 images going up at my library this month and my trusty PRO-100 suddenly won't print true! The narrative bottom line is that there is a...

The latest in my series of tests in the Florida sun. As before, Canon PRO-100 CLI-42 ink images taped to windows on the SW side of the house. Not as before, the windows are now open, so the angularity in relationship to the sun is more direct. Probably a nuance and not critical to the...

Maybe I reinvented the wheel here. As a step in promoting The Verizzo Family Photographic Estate www.vphotoestate.com , I wanted explanations, credit, and copyright information on the front. The actual image to be quite a bit smaller than the paper size. For instance, 6-7" on the long side...

Remember back in the day of film, the popular photo magazines would have “Shoot outs” for a film category, like high speed slide? They would magnify little portions, examine the colors, pontificate, etc. OK, so I’ve made a dozen or more identical test prints with the papers I have, including...

Adorama in NYC often has great paper deals and good shipping rates. A lot of the Canon papers are steeply discounted right now, and if the order totals $49 or more, free expedited shipping. So, I got a 50 pack of 13"x19" Pro Luster for $37.90, and a 20 count, same size Glossy II for $14.99...

A few weeks ago I posted the results of CLI-8 vs CLI-42 fading test. The latter was far superior, 2X or more, in resisting both UV and behind opaque, but gas mobile mask. Now, I've taken down a few other sheets that have been in the Florida sun for four or five weeks. All are on Canon paper...
