It's so much different when you see physical photo album rather than digital one, the feels of nostalgia is sooo strong. I think I will buy this printer someday, or maybe the better printer.

    I read your review over 2 years ago and then purchased a Canon Pixma Pro 100 which I am still very please with. I also want to thank you for the mention of Precision Color. Their replacement inks work great and while I spent about $100 getting set up with their chip reset device and inks I will likely not need addition supplies for 3 or 4 more years. Huge savings and making all printing on this printer very reasonable if not just damn cheap. Thanks!!

    HI, thanks very much for this video. I just set mine up. I wonder if you have a video on color management as I am on a Mac also and can find very little using this printer with a Mac? Also, is your mac using an RBG 1998 or sRGB color profile prior to calibration? And printing from photoshop should the color space be set to RGB or CMYK consider the inks for this printer are cmyk? I am working out of Adobe Camera Raw and exporting my images to Photoshop cc 2015.5 Also, I have a Dell P2714H 27" monitor and prints are coming out darker by about 1/2-2/3 of a stop and more magenta than what is on the screen. Using Pro Luster from Canon and their OEM inks. My only calibration so far has been with the Apple Calibrator. I am in the process of getting either the spyder or colormunkie. What brightness and contrast values is your monitor set at percentage wise as I have heard that LCD monitors are typically set too bright from the factory? I know I am asking a lot here? Would greatly appreciate any help as I am trying to zero in on what I see on the screen and have gone through quite a bit of ink and paper trying to zero in on what I see on screen. Thanks, in advance.

    Tim-- Excellent video and tutorial. I do have a question. Noticed you are using a Mac. When I got my Pro100 I used the CD (which I should not have done) and have never been able to connect via wi-fi. It says you cant used wired and wireless. How do you get rid of everything on the iMac (that the CD installed) and try again with just drivers and none of the bloatware? I've tried everything, and still can't get this to connect wireless.. The iMac connects to router/accesss point just fine. All other devices work on. I want to be able to print from both the iMac and a Macbook Pro, but I've got to find a way to get rid of everything the CD loaded and try again. VERY frustrating.

    We just purchased this printer a few months ago and are still struggling to learn how to use it properly. It prints pretty good on the photo papers, although a little darker than the monitor image. But I can't get it to print the regular paper well, like typing paper and what not. The colors just comes out so feeble. Can anybody tell me how to print on regular papers? The paper type setting only has basically matte, semi-gloss, gloss, and platinum, which refer to the photo paper grades. I want to print the images on regular paper, or stationery so I can send the image on my letters. Any advice? I'd appreciate it.
