    Pro-100 "Preview" crops right edge

    One of the things I really like is the Preview feature of the Pro-100, before giving the last "OK to print". But there is an issue that seems to be with the "Preview" feature cropping the right edge off the image. The first image below shows the full right edge of a Visa statement in an PDF...

    Steaking after usage

    Recently I have been noticing that my printer (Pro 100) will now have an issue where after it sits idle for a while it will print one or two pages well, but then after it will start to have streaking (typically in the same area). If I let it sit and run a nozzle check it will come back perfect...

    Pro 9000 vs Pro-100 ink?

    A fellow camera club member is selling his unopened Canon CLI-8 ink cartridges for $8 each because his Pro 9000 died. First, I'd like to extend an offer to any PrinterKnowledge member who is interested in purchasing these cartridges. I would have to check with the seller first, of course...

    Power Outage

    Just before I sat down to dinner, I looked at my Canon Pro-100 and powered it down. I was done printing for the day and thought about something I learned how it's not good to leave it powered on because a power outage would cause a large amount of ink loss when it comes back up. Well, we had a...

    Canon Pro-100 Preview

    A pitch for Canon. There is a feature that is spoken of very little. It's the Preview. This is not a preview that your desktop software generates. It's a preview that the "Canon print driver" generates. With this I am "really" satisfied that the printer will get what "I thought I sent"...

    Synchronise your Cartridge purges to avoid ink waste

    This thread relates specifically to the Canon Pro100S, but more than likely will apply to other Canon printers with 2 or more printhead groups. For anyone who has had a printhead clog on a Pro100S, they will know they have the option of doing a partial manual purge. ie. There are 2 groups...

    Pro-100 Cyan lines :(

    I'm getting lines on a Nozzle Check on the Cyan print head only. HELP! I've tried a Deep Cleaning and a Print Head Alignment: Page 1: Page 2: So, I'm asking what should I try next? I haven't tried a Bottom Plate Cleaning nor a Roller Cleaning. The Pro-100 is new. I've used up the setup...

    How clean is a clean flush

    Until recently I have for years been using a vendor at the local market to refill my carts. That was for the i9900. He won't do the CLI-42 for the Pro-100. He says to finicky and not enough after-market business for him. OK, so I started my own refilling, There were some bumps, which are...

    After ColorMunki Calibration

    I can't remember such a painful feeling of buyer's remorse worse than when I just received my X-Rite ColorMunki via UPS, calibrated my monitor, then viewed a sample matrix and it was too dark. Oh, that's right, this happened right after printing on my new Pro-100; everything was dark. Hence...

    Mixing OEM and Precision Color inks

    I am the happy owner of a new Canon Pro-100 printer I bought and received a week ago (5/18/2017). I watched this video by @jtoolman where the says, "...it's the OEM that reacts to ANY third-party inks...". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONucRtdAilc So, does this mean that after I remove the...

    My First Refilling Purchase

    I purchased a Canon Pro-100 printer a week ago new. After chatting with you amazing folks here at PrinterKnowledge.com about refilling I've realized PrecisionColors.com is the place to buy refilling products. I've also watched Jose Rodriguez's videos and he recommends all of the things I'm...

    Pro-100 DPI Setting

    What dpi should I use when printing? This is a crazy printer. It thinks it can print 4800 x 2400 dpi; I don't even know which dimension is which. For this specific application, I'm printing to a slightly custom frame; I want the width to be 8.25". The length will be cropped to fit so that...

    Pro-100 Print Performance Anxiety

    Viewing photos on the web at Facebook resolution, most of your work looks great. It's when you print that art where the rubber meets the road. Before I bought this Pro-100 printer I had many photos in mind I wanted to print, some 8x10, but only a handful at 13x19. Now I have doubts. The...

    Pro-100 Printhead (was a) Problem

    So I guess I don’t have a problem that needs fixing, but rather a problem I fixed. Figured success stories and techniques coming from this forum should be mentioned. About four weeks ago I noticed at the bottom of the cyan block on the test page didn’t have a crisp edge. Since TurboPrint has...

    Pro-100 Cleaning Page

    There are a number of function available from printer maintenance, to print check pages. What I don't know is whether those pages, or in fact other sample print pages posted in this and other forums, exercise all pins/nozzles. The Pro-100 has some 6400 pins/nozzles, and I would like to be able...

    Questions about refilling Pro-100 carts: fading over time?

    Having become a fan of refilling the carts on my ix6520, and soon will be refilling those on my recently acquired ip4300, I'm now turning a jaundiced eye to how much I'm spending to feed my Pro-100. I like the Chromalife 100+ ink/Canon paper combination for their ability to stand up under...

    Canon Pixma Pro-100

    Hi Guys, I run a small computer shop that also offers a photo printing service. I'm currently using an ageing i9950 which I love, but is giving me problems now and then (see my other thread) and am wondering whether to buy the Pro-100, it can be bought fairly cheaply second hand nowadays. I'd...
