Really informative video Keith. Totally agree. I love Red River paper. The Red River 17x25 is the primary paper I use for larger prints of landscape photos that I’ve taken over the last couple of years. I use their 1100 ICC profile. I upgraded from the 1000 to the 1100. I didn’t see huge differences between the 1000 to the 1100 other than the areas of black - some very minor differences. I also ran into the constant crashing with the update to MacOS 15. But now that Canon introduced the newer drivers, no issues. Anyone wanting to simply upgrade from the 1000 to the 1100 won’t see any major differences between the printers. I was able to donate my 1000 to a local college’s night school program for digital photography workflow classes. If I had to do it over again, I would have kept my dependable 1000.
Glad to hear you love our paper! Biggest difference is on matte paper, for sure. If someone has a 1000 that is working for them its probably not worth upgrading. With the Pro-1000's being on sale its even worth considering the Pro-1000 if buying new right now. The Pro-1100 has better inks, but not night-and-day.
Great video, thanks! It agrees with what we (Red River Paper) are seeing testing this printer also. I used the Pro-1000 (and -2100 and -4100) quite extensively. Now I have a Pro-1100 on my desk and I'd say its better than the -1000 overall, but its not a massive leap forward or anything. The biggest improvement, for me, is that the printer's processor and network connection seem a lot faster than the -1000's so prints start faster and doing things like creating/editing am1x files is a bit faster. I don't notice any real improvement in scratch resistance. Slightly better blackpoint and dark-area-detail on matte papers. Difference on non-matte papers is less noticeable, but it does exist.
Keith you did a great and immense job in this comparison. Wow. As I generally avoid lustre paper and either print on matte or on glossy baryta, I suspect the microscopic differences between the old and new device/ink combinations might actually become visible with these papers. To the trained eye.
Thanks - yes, there are differences, just not readily apparent in many images in specific non-test prints [directly compared, under ideal lighting]. The biggest differences are likely to be with matt papers - the 'problem' if any is that the pro-1000 is already a great printer.
Thank you again Keith! Your teaching trining here is as always excellent. I use the i1 Pro a n early old model but for my purposes it’s still great. Looking forward to comparing my Canon Pro-10 to the 1100 someday soon!!
Thanks - for many images the pro-10 will do just as well. Yes, there will be differences, but, well profiled, the pro-10 is good. Of course paper handling is much improved in the 1000 and 1100
Dear Keith, great videos! I have a question regarding a canon pro 1000 that is used only with one batch of ink and after that not for at least a year… due to circumstances. Is there a way to get it clean and working again? Maybe you have some tips before I turn the power on again. Kind regards Maikel.
It may work - until you fire it up and do a nozzle check you don't know. Before powering up, take each cart out and give it a gentle shake for 15-20 seconds and put them back. If it's been moved, leave it standing for an hour or so before powering. See also my cleaning/maintenance PRO-1100 video [the two printers are almost the same]
Thank you for yet another very interesting video - much appreciated. While I recognize you are not providing AM1X profiles, I do use them when available (I do not make my own icc profiles) I mean why not, you suggest there are 'issues' with them what may they be ? My understanding is they add a bit of info on the paper base itself, why would that not be a good thing in general ?
They are a pain to make - too much extra trouble for little gain [for myself] They are also not something I can use to distribute the profiles I make due to usage limitations and lack of good media settings info from Canon. For personal use it's not so bad an idea, and I'll certainly cover their use in the review.
Hi Keith, I recently purchased the PRO-1100 and have been experimenting with different Canon paper types. Your videos have been a huge help in getting me started with this printer. I have noticed that the names of the paper types do not quite match the names of the profiles on the printer and in PPL. Is there a list that will tell me which profile to use for which paper type?
Ah, there is some info on this in the manual. I've also addressed some of it in my main [written] review www.northlight-images.co.uk/canon-pro-1100-printer-review/
thanks for the explanations between these two machines but where I agree with you is that there are so many variables, what better to say, it's just marketing And as it also changes depending on where you look at the print it's not won! to summarize, without comparison tools, it's very debatable. And still the differences really mark in our eyes ? Otherwise, a real question: For the same level of quality to the eye, which one consumes less anchors? Because after all, that's important in changing a machine Just like which one is the easiest to maintain Thank you for sharing your passion
Hi Keith, Thanks for your good videos. I have a question. I have to replace ma print head on my PRO-1000. Instead of replacing the print head, I want to move to the PRO-1100. I will have some ink cartridge left from the PRO-1000. Despite slight colors differences, do you know if PRO-1000 ink cartridges (new in their boxes, not used on the PRO-1000) can be used on the PRO-1100? Thank you for your good work,

Thanks for that - there are indeed some differences, but not at the level some might think from Canon marketing ;-)

What differences are you seeing in the blacks?

Thanks - that's useful to know. Making a comparison with a printer I reviewed 8 years ago was always likely to be rather incomplete...
Another great video by best boy Keith san 🎉

Very interesting hearing how you evaluated and what the differences are.
Thanks - there's obviously more detail, with test prints and the like, but the profiling gives me a very good steer on what to look for.

Thank you for sharing your passion
Anchors???
If you mean ink use, then both are likely very similar
Neither is easier to maintain - differences are slim...
Hi Keith,
Thanks for your good videos.
I have a question.
I have to replace ma print head on my PRO-1000.
Instead of replacing the print head, I want to move to the PRO-1100. I will have some ink cartridge left from the PRO-1000. Despite slight colors differences, do you know if PRO-1000 ink cartridges (new in their boxes, not used on the PRO-1000) can be used on the PRO-1100?
Thank you for your good work,
Glad to help, but no, the ink carts cannot be transferred to the 1100 at all.
I was expecting that, but I wanted to confirm.
Thanks again,
Have you ever tried to print on dark color papers? I was just wondering if Canon or EPSON printers printing on color printers.
Sorry, no, not ever.
The ink set is not optimised for that - you need a system with very different inks [such as white]
