PIXMA Pro-1 leaving on or off?

Today, I took the Pro-1 printer and have it operational and I'm just very happy with the out of the box - quality prints - they are simply sensational!   So here's my question - I'll print sever times weekly on this printer, but certainly not every day.    What is advised on this printer?   Leave all the time, or turn it off between uses?    Approach rather than the other cause burn you through more than faster ink?

Hi SkeeterHarris,

The decision on whether to let the printer or turn off completely.  I would recommend just turning off the printer if you decide to do and do not unplug it from the power outlet.  The reason is that the printer will still have a little power and keep running timers.  What these timers, is keep track of cleanings that must be performed to ensure that the printer prints correctly.  If you leave off or on won't matter because these timers work still and keep the printer printing in best quality.  You will use the same amount of ink regardless of keep or disable.

I hope that answers your question.

  • Printing from Lightroom 5.2 on Canon Pixma Pro-1

    Hello

    I am new to Lightroom 5 and Canon Pro-1. I'm not sure that I fully understand what is happening when I use ICC profiles for printing (in spite of paying through forum after forum). When I print the results look, nothing like the results on the screen. I tried the soft test and proof image looks like my output, but I'm not understand how I'm supposed to use the ICC profile.

    System

    Windows 7

    5.2 Lightroom

    Canon Pixma Pro-1

    8 GB RAM

    1. use of proofing it appears that I need to adjust my image for each paper type. It is not meant for me - I thought that the profile would be to adjust printing so that I wouldn't have to adjust the image.

    2. when I print, I put the following settings of the printer:

    PrintSettings1.png

    3. when using unsupported paper, what types of paper should I choose? Is there a resource anywhere that tells me?

    PrintSettings2.png

    4. should I have my correct print settings Lightroom base?

    PrintSettings3.png

    Is could someone please tell me what I understood/hard to please? I know it's a forum for beginners but still, please, excuse for the total lack of understanding.

    Help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    I use the Pro-100 for a few months.  It's a great printer that I am very satisfied.  Currently there is a very aggressive rebate program if someone wants a new printer.  FWIW, I have been unable to find anyone, anywhere not happy with Canon Pro printers.  Basically, you can get a value of $170 of paper and ink for $99 with a printer that is 'free' to the end of the year.

    Return to this topic!

    There are potentially three completely different workflows between Lightroom and Canon Pro-life 1, 10, 100 series that involve choices of papers, ICC profiles and color management.

    1. printing with Lightroom controlling color.  You must open the printer driver and disable the printer color management.  By selecting the document in the pilot seems to define the profile.

    2. print with the printer manage the colors.  In LR, he must choose color management > managed by the printer.  Then turn on color management in the printer via the driver.

    3. printing with Canon provided in Cap.  After you have installed the plug of the supplied disc, in LR, go to file > Options of the plug-in > Canon Print Studio Pro.

    Like Lightroom fan, addict and supporter of everything that said J Kost, I was using #1 and love for landscapes.  I had to work a bit to find a way to turn off the printer as well as examples of J Kost for Epson.  Then I tried to print a picture of my granddaughter and her cheeks kept getting a little purple.  When I checked the Preview button before printing in the printer driver, I could see the change in color of the preview of LR.

    I went to #2 where the printer takes the decisions.  Extracts matched and stopped the cheeks blush.

    Then, I looked at a video conference conducted by a specialist of Canon products on the Web B & H Photo site in an hour.  It's the Canon plug-in demo.  I am strongly considering using that in the future.  I hope that Kost J will not be upset with me!  It seems that the Canon plug-in really has better control of quality on the printing process.

    A particularly interesting feature of the plug-in is a test sheet that looks like a sheet of evidence.  There are a bunch of thumbnails printed on a single sheet with a different color casts and numbers of adjustment under them.  Once you choose one that is 'just', you can save the setting as a "Preset" for that paper.

    Note that in the long video, Canon representative insisted on the support of 3 papers of party in the plug-in.

    Too long video was worth the investment of time.  I understand my printer and more watching him.  The link: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/indepth/photography/tips-solutions/canon-pixma-professional-in kjet-printers-exactly-you-considered

  • PIXMA pro 100 versus pixma ip8720

    Hello:

    I'm in the market for a new photo printer.  I got some Epsons for years but these guns are really pretty.  I'm looking at Pixma Pro 100 and the Pixma ip8720.  What is your opinion?

    Thank you!

    I have the Pro-100 and I have a Pro - 9500 II, then you probably know my preference.

    Either will do a good job and I guess the only difference between the two is, AI a printer 6 colors and the other is an 8.

    The Pro-100 is a beast at nearly 45 pounds.  It's a really nice photo printer.

  • PIXMA Pro-100, ICC profiles, etc.

    I will try to make a long story short.  About 5 months ago, I bought a camera Canon T3i.  Is not only the prints that I got at department stores, bought a PIxma Pro-100.  Little did the research, visited account I need to calibrate my monitor, purchased a Datacolor Spyder Pro 4.

    My questions concern the software used to get prints.  I do not have PhotoShop, and I don't want to buy it.  I have PaintShop Pro, but realize that I can't use it.  My computer is Win7.  I do not know cameras, but I've been in it for 30 years.  I know that computers.

    I'm not happy with the impressions I'm away until now.  The colors all are low (for lack of a better word).  Everything I've read about the Pro100 said colors should be rich (saturated).  Mine are not.

    First, I tried the software that came with my camera.  Digital Photo Professional.  It works with the plugin from Canon, Print Studio Pro.  It seems that he has acknowledged, or charges, ICC profiles for Canon paper I use.  It does not recognize or give me the option to select an ICC profile for my monitor.

    I called Canon support.  The guy I spoke to Easy-PhotoPrint EX software recommended.  Said that he should have come on the CD with my Pixma.  He did not.  This software does not use the plugin from Canon.  And appears to be more limited.  He said that it works well with Canon cameras.  Honestly, it looked like it was BS'ing me all the time.  If you don't know the answer, it's ok to put it simply, it's my feeling.

    OK, it turns out be a long story.  Can someone help me?  This printer I have does not measure upward for what I've read about it.  I spent a lot of money to get good prints from my Canon camera.  I don't have this, not even close.  What should I do?

    In DPP, go to tools-> Preferences-> color management and you can select a monitor profile.

  • Canon Pixma Pro - 100 prints very dark

    I see that it is a recuring with the Canon Pixma Pro-100 problem, but nothing, I found an online help I ask and hope someone can solve this problem for me.

    Just picked up a Pixma Pro-100 today and installed on my iMac 27 "(Yosemite) 2011 with the latest drivers downloaded from Canon to be sure to have the website." I also checked the printer firmware but it's later to 1,100. Weather, I'm printing through Lightroom or Photoshop; by Canon Print Studio Pro, my garden image, or by LR / PS directly; with - or without PS as a manager of color; the prints is proving to be much to dark.

    I have to set an exposure of 2/3 in LR to be anywhere nearby to get the same result as on the screen. I am also careful to select the right ICC for correct paper profiles. My monitor is calibrated with a Spyder4pro and I also re-calibrated her during this process to see if that helped.

    Well. Long story short; the prints are dark. So I borrowed 2013 Spyder4pro MacBook Pro (Yosemite my wife) and installed the latest drivers from Canon. Once again; on this machine, the impressions are also to dark with about + 2/3 in order to correct the impression of something that looks like the monitor. The two screens can also be programmed to 30% brightness.

    I also have access to an Epson Stylus Photo R3000 and the prints of that much brighter spell.

    Unfortunately, I see that many others also have the same problem. Then; Here's the question. How can I fix it? Do I have to return the printer and get a refund? Because it's clearly not good enough.

    Thank you very much for your answers. But unfortunately, I have "been there, done that" on all of your advice.

    I go back on Monday to the printer and replace it with an equal Epson printer as I have only good experiences with this brand and the prints I get without using overtime to tinker with settings.

    It was my first (and last) Canon printer.

  • PIXMA Pro 100, printing setup error

    I am new to printing, I just got my Pixma Pro and so far have had terrible results.  1/10 times I get beautiful prints, the rest are terrible, faded, and as they have a gray film on them.  I think that its either a management or color paper management problem. I try to use 8.5 "x 11"Canon Pixma Photo"with finishing mate.  I print with Photoshop. I have the same problem if I click on Photoshop color handle or manage color printers, but prints nice 1/10 has been made manually setting the document to "glossy" under the menu print settings in Photoshop CS6 instead by selecting Matte is the obvious choice.

    When I chose Photoshop treats color management I get prints of same gray no matter what printer profile I select. Although it seems more logical to choose matte Canon Pro - 100 3 paper photo because it's what I use, once again nice 1/10 prints have been achieved selection Pro 3 Platinum photo paper.

    I don't understand how it works.  The picture I am trying to print is here, green and nice blue. http://www.Flickr.com/photos/27816471@N06/9076033417/in/set-72157634198994950 it seems gray and washed out when I print, sort of like the printer is 1/2 more ink, but he says is not.  Black and gray are good.

    What should I do?  I know its operator error, but I can not re - introduce one of the environment to get decent prints of this, so I'm considering junking or return. really disappointed.

    He is a. (at least on the matte premium.) was a packet of information about 3 x 4 in plastic sleeve, in that the paper is conditioning?

    Should be slightly whiter and not quite as calm as the side back side printing. Very subtle.

  • Paper size of the PIXMA Pro - 100 substitute

    Hello

    I love the Pixma Pro-100 on most levels compared to my previous R2400!  Ink consumption, image quality, etc. all are better.  The only exceptionis I could print a banner 44 "on the Epson.  Is it possible to configure or replace the maximum print size 13 x 19?

    Thank you!

    KP

    Like other Canon printers, the PRO-100 to set custom paper sizes.

    Paper width: 12.95 "- after a few tries, I found that a custom size the value 13" causes a printing error. With the help of 12.95 "corrected it. You will notice on the scale of width 16.54. This is an error in the software programming.

    I found that the effective maximum print length is 26 ".  Then 12.95 x 26 inches.  No. 44 inches!

  • PIXMA Pro - 100 and Windows 8.1 help please...

    Hello

    I'll try to be concise

    Spent the whole day on the phone to do this without the same answer twice * sigh *.

    I was told and I read again and again that YES, Pro-100 WILL absolutely work with Windows 8.1.

    Then... It is possible that it will NOT work unless I have 8.1 Pro Pack.

    Is this true?

    IOW... Is there anyone using the PIXMA Pro-100 with Windows 8.1 * without * Pro Pack very well?

    I ordered the printer yesterday before being told this topic and need to know if I need to cancel my order before it ships.

    I thank very you much for any help.

    I also tried printing from Elements 9 with the same problem.
