Peter, really glad to have been of help and very happy to hear your problems have been resolved. Incidentally I'm beginning to regret selling my Pro100 but it's done now so making the best of the Pro10!!
Here's my thoughts on this. Firstly I'm fairly certain that the linearity between the same printers is far closer with modern manufacturing techniques these days so I'm not so sure your printer is at fault (although that's not impossible). Secondly I'm not so sure that the claims for the PC...
Try using the Canon Print Studio Pro app and select to print a Pattern Print on some A4 of the same paper. It's a very useful option for fine tuning colour casts and is really simple as each tile it prints shows what adjustments to make.
It's not the ICC profile that dictates the margin but the media type. The Other Fine Art 1 & 2, Premium Matte and Museum Etching media types all impose the margins.
Sorry Peter, I might be misleading you there with the sRGB tagged image. There was an issue with some drivers and OS's that meant profiles were being applied twice which would give terrible results, but I'm trying to recall things from years ago that I'd long forgotten!
The profiles I wrote for...
One thing I'm noticing is that the test image has a profile assigned to it (sRGB) which could mean you're double profiling. My test image has no profile assigned. I also use the Canon Print Studio Pro plugin to print and certainly don't use the Pro mode as this means the printer manages the...
Not wishing to stir the pot but all I can say is that I've had the Pro100 for a year now, I print for my self and for members of my camera club, and have nothing but praise for it! Admittedly I've not owned a 9000 but what I print is what I see with no casts, dark prints, warmth or any other...
I recall there was an issue with the magenta ink from Mike and he offered a new formulation of it. I had the original inkset from him and also had big colour cast problems that I didn't have with the genuine inks and canned profiles. At the time I hadn't purchased a profiling device so I stopped...
Dredmanlaw was recently asking about 3rd party profiles for the Fine Art papers using PK ink rather than the correct MK ink. The conclusion is that in order to be able to print a full sized target patch file 3rd party profiles are using matte Paper as the media type to get around the margin...
I occasionally got this message when I'd changed paper type and forgot to reselect manual feed instead of rear tray (which the driver sometimes defaults to). Many times I used to confuse the rear tray as meaning the manual feed!!
Well this is my problem! I've just sold my Pro100, which I have to say is a superb machine, and am about to get the Pro10 because I print for fellow tog's here in Hong Kong and feel I need to have the archival longevity of pigment inks if I'm selling a service that can be backed up.
With the...
