Where was this video when I first got my Pro-1000? It would have saved me hours of frustration and sheets of paper! Thanks for making the video, Keith. You'll help many, many folks!

Hope so! I cover it in all my printer reviews, so it was in my detailed PRO-1000 review www.northlight-images.co.uk/canon-pro-1000-printer-review/ However that was written over four years before I started adding the supplementary videos, after someone from Canon convinced me that people would watch videos if I made them [they were right, I was wrong]

Thanks Keith. I've tucked that video away for when I need to install the 300 driver on my long awaited Mac Studio.

Keith, you are a lifesaver! . ..ok maybe a wee exaggeration, but you've certainly saved my sanity!! I've been going round and round in circles for ages with this... even had call with Canon a few months ago and gave up. ...but now I need to do a bunch of prints, some for family after a holiday... and now I have the right driver! Yes!! ...however... when I try and set paper size for 6x4 prints (for family before I do some large prints for myself and others) in LR Classic using Pro-300 as a printer, it won't let me choose 6x4, and forces me to create a custom size. so, when I do that then move on to setting up the paper size in the new driver, I have to do it every time I want to print. so I created a printer preset and saved that in print settings LR classic then shows the print filling the screen, the paper size correctly, and all the boxes on the RH side ticked correctly (rotate to fit), then I move onto the bottom right button 'printer' to check all is well only to find the paper size is shown here as A4 for some reason! so I reset this to 6x4 and press print.. ...and I get a glorious print on 6x4 paper but not rotated so it's tiny and I've just wasted a pile of paper trying all variations but can't get it to work - do you have any idea what I might b doing wrong, or a link you can advise me to check up on? thanks, and keep up the great videos - your a godsend in this frustrating wilderness!

Glad to help with the driver. Can't help with any LR print settings though - I never use lightroom Have you tried printing from the Canon PPL software? This is a question though where I'd suggest asking on the printing forum at dpreview.com See also, the full set of my PRO-300 info at: www.northlight-images.co.uk/canon-pro-300-printer-review/

@@KeithCooper Lightroom Classic used to print like a dream until I upgraded my MacOS. Thanks for the tips, I'll try photoshop or the Canon PPL software - that's what Canon guys said to me a wee while ago. Really appreciate your generous sharing of your significant experience on this channel. I have been following for a while and chose the Pro-300 after watching a number of your videos. best regards from sunny Dundee! Joe

Hi Keith, yes, that was my problem too when I started using the Pro-300. I noticed a strange color cast when I printed certain sub-scanned images on smaller paper. At first I thought I was doing something fundamentally wrong and tried to figure out what with the help of your written articles! It took me a few days to realize it was the stupid Airprint driver👹

Yes - it persists with each new OS, but looks just different enough to catch people out. My personal annoyance is Apple trying to make my Mac look more like a phone...

Thanks for this video. Please add hashtags to this video that it can be linked to the pro 1000. I wasted so much ink and paper without this video. Especially for beginner is not really obvious nor intuitive that the Apple AirPrint driver is the problem.

I am on an older driver, similar mac studio….. should I update to the April driver? Not having any issues mind thus far :)😊

put it in a sealed plastic bag to keep out dust and keep up the humidity. Leave it somewhere where it won't get too hot. Other than that, the 200 is fairly resistant to problems

I have a new Canon 200 and I'm running it on an iMac. Using the Canon PPL it works absolutely fine but it will not print from any other application on the computer. I've not had a chance to check the AirPrint as you say but as the results from PPL are perfect I don't think that is it. Any ideas Keith?

When testing this I first fell into the trap of 'knowing' what to do... Then I looked at what the installer said to do...

I have an epson p900 which i previously used on an older Imac running v10.7.x os. Ran perfectly. I just got an m3 imac with sonoma. First off usb connection won’t work. Have to use network. Ok fair enough. But…it only works for a few sessions and then back to the ‘filter failed’ message. Have to remove and reinstall to get it to work again. My opinion is this is pure utter crapification from Apple. I am not doing anything complicated…i am printing photos which i had been doing with no problem for 10 years. Now with all this ‘advancement’ it is a problem. Relly Apple?
