I haven't posted much here, but I just wanted to say that newer technology definitely CAN be better!
I had an Epson R2400 which produced stunning prints (to this hobbyist's eye), but I didn't print enough to prevent it from getting clogged ALL THE TIME...I even had it on a weekly maintenance print cycle using Qimage. Still not enough. Wish I had all those $$ back on wasted ink and ink cartridges!
Anyhoo, I started watching this forum and spotted the closeout price on the Pixma Pro 10...two years ago?!
Ordered one and it sat in the box until this early summer when I finally set it up (after finally junking the R2400). Out of the box the prints were fantastic!
Then summer projects took over and I only just got back to it. I was so fearing clogged heads/jets (or whatever this thing uses), but NOPE, I turned it on, it shook for several minutes, and the first print I sent through last night looks fantastic.
I'm sure it's costing me more letting it sit off and idle for big chunks of time, but so far it has been a pleasure to use this printer. Here's hoping I didn't just jinx myself!
Thanks to everyone who posts here regularly with such valuable and useful information!
