I actually own a ix6850 with a good CIS kit and I discovered something similar. The problem is dye tends to fade badly from UV light. You can actually fix the issue with a can of Krylon UV Clear Gloss Protectant paint. When you use matching manufacturer's ink and paper however which costs a whole lot more I've read it can provide better fade protection. So there's the downside of CIS prints. I am thinking of trying out pigment inks in a different setup thou. I've heard they provide better fade protection but lack the "brightness" of dye prints.

It's not so much the dye I is but f this is a canon printer, a ciss is a bad idea. Of course dye inks will fade faster. But then even some pigment inks will also fade.

Hello Jose! Thank you for all your good advice. Is the Canon PIXMA pro 100 a good printer for original artwork? I want to print on matte acid free paper of course. I use minimal color, mostly watercolor or gauche and lots of black ink on watercolor paper. Thank you for whatever you can tell me. Keep up the good work! Ramses Carranza NYC.

No. For proper watercolor art work reproduction prints you need a pigment ink printer with at least 8-9 colors. Watercolor art needs to be also be printed on inkjet Watercolor paper which requires Pigment inks using matte black ink included in the. She inks do not do a great job on Matte Watercolor paper which is what you should be using for your art prints. Epson SP P600 would be perfect for you.

Both! It depends on what you want as far as output. If you only print on glossy then the PRO-100 if your do both glossy and matte then the PRO-10

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't other factors like humidity, types of paper being used and if they ARE NOT using OEM ink play a big roll in this? I Noticed that pictures that have been stored away, framed in glass, or even a photo album, always look better than those kept out in the air, even with minimal sunlight. I believe it has to do with oxidation as well. I noticed this when I printed 2 pictures, same printer, same ink, same paper. I put mine in a frame, and my friend put it on his fridge with a magnet. His in 1 year has faded a HUGE amount, while mine still looks like day one.

Hi Jo I am having difficulty to print with my Canon Pro 100S It's all set up and done some print test. Now it's not printing ever from the web or word documents. It will attempt to print than the orang light start flashing . I pressed it to resume printing but I am not having any luck. Can please help with some advice. Thank you.

Thank you for video , Can anyone recommend something similar to Precision Colors ? They dont post to uk ! I was using pro paper on pro 100s but third party ink ,photos are disaater after 4 months ! I had few printed from old sub printer and stuck on fridge(exposed to direct sun ) they are excellent no changed in them but from 100s they all washed out ,nearly vanished 🙈😢

Thanks for this video Jose. I am currently having the same issues with my prints. I am using the Pro 100 with PC inks. Couple of days back, I have found that some of the prints made on Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy II started fading unevenly within 2 months. The color deterioration was quite substantial. Most of the prints were left inside the study drawers. With all things being constant, the only difference between those prints that faded, and those that didn't, was the type of paper printed on. Those that were printed on Canon Pro Platinum held up pretty well since I've started printing 8 months ago. Almost half of those printed on the Canon Photo Paper Plus Glossy II (I've started experimenting with this paper 3 months ago) started fading badly. My preliminary guess would be the paper, as you have indicated in this video.

OK so you should really try to get them a cheap EPSON AIO type printer for their NON Photo printing. EPSONS can be easily be used with cheap compatible carts and that way you can devote your PRO-100 for what it is intended for, creating great photos. PC inks for the PRO-100 are very good. They also provide free profiles for many papers. These come in 5 different modes depending on the viewing illumination. InkOwl and Inkjetcarts also make good inks for the PRO-100 but you will not have the free ready to use profiles.

Yes you certainly can do that. You will of course need two cart sets Both OEM. One loaded with PC and one loaded with OEM. But the truth is you will hardly see the difference between the two. However being as you are a photographer you will want your work to last decades and so that is what OEM ink is for. Color wise the PC ink will deliver near OEM results and after profiling or using their profiles you will have a near match to oem! The weakness of ANY 3rd party dye ink set is longevity. Even OEM canon ink will not last near as long as their or even good quality third party pigment inks.

I am using Canon and Canson paper with OEM inks. I have some on display for more than 10 years.

I was abroad for a year and I left my Pixma at home and during this period I turned it on 2 times in order for the printer to clean itself. I know it's stupid but you can leave your printer for 6 months without using it and after this time it still works like wonder. I just switched some ink cartridges and printed a photo and it looks amazing, no smudges, no nothing - printer works just fine. I use OEM cartridges only of course, otherwise probably printer head would be done by now. So next time someone asks, you can give them this answer :)

I have printed a3 size prints on canon pro lustre with PC ink mounted in a frame under glass on a wall with no direct sunlight and they fade. How do I kknow, well the perimeter 1/2" edge of the photo is covered by a cardboard surround, and when I remove this the colours on this covered edge are darker than the main photo. Unless I saw this I would not have thought the photo had faded at all. It does take a year or two for it to be noticable though. A few months is not enough. If there is any fading at all, it will continue to fade.

Absolutely notmal. And this happens with every single 3rd party ink sold in the World. Even OEM will eventually fade. Only pigment is considered to BD semi archival. Next time apply a coat of a good ink jet print protectant spray let it fully dry and then frame it. If the paper is RC just a tip coat is needed. It is a non RC paper you need to spray front and back. But RC papers will react to uv and ozone much more negatively than non RC. Due to the Optical Brightening Agents used on their coatings. They make the results look bright....for a while.

The reason to be cautious is because Canon printheads for IPF printers basically wear out as you use them. Though itnisnvery easy for you to replace, they will set you back about $400 each and often these models have two heads. Not counting the paper drive component wearing out. If it is hardly used that also.means the heads and ink lines will also be clogged. So yet look for something as new as you afford with new in box or in tbis case, new in crate will be the most reliable way to go.
