How to store a Canon Pro 1

[The Hat]

@The Hat, where do you get the information concerning each cleaning cycle (60 hour, 120 hour, etc.) and how many ml of ink they use?

@William Seaward, With the aid of the Printer Potty, I can see at a glance every time the printer does maintenance, and can then weigh the results for each occasion, elementary my dear Watson...

Fitting a Printer Potty is not as easy a task as you might think on this printer, because it can carry severe consequences if not done properly..

@oroblec, just use a normal plastic garbage bag...

It might be better in the long run to print the weekly image OR this is a prime candidate for a printer potty.

Make sure you can enter Service Mode to be able to reset the diaper counter before buying a Printer Potty. Otherwise, a Printer Potty does not help if your printer stops working because it thinks the diaper is full and you cannot reset the counter.

My first Pro-1 has entered service mode successfully... Haven't tried the second one yet.

Excellent! According to a @The Hat post in the past, Canon pushed a firmware update and/or began selling the printer with the new firmware which no one has been able to bypass and get into Service Mode.

A caution story to not update the printer's working software or firmware unless it fixes a specific problem you are having or adds some functionality you want.

Yes. I purchased semi-opaque vinyl dust covers made to my specifications for my printers.

You can find pre-made or custom made printer dust covers by searching Google for "printer dust cover".

I think it was http://www.compucover.com/ It was many years ago but I had that link saved so it probably is the place I got my covers. Mine look to be the Anti-Static Frosted Vinyl design and are still in fantastic condition, so well worth the cost. I don't know if the quality the same now as when I bought mine.
