I purchased a pixma 200 because of the videos where you have printed before and I have not regretted it. Great printer, and I love the results. Can't wait for the video on the paper choices etc.
I have a Prograf Pro-4000 and absolutely love it. Getting a massive print out of it is so satisfying. I've been using this software for a while, and it's surprisingly useful even outside of photos--floorplans and other graphics are super easy.
I have a Pixma Pro 100. I discovered Red River papers right when I started. Have tried lots of their stock. Great company. And really good customer service!
Interesting timing considering that the print head of my Canon Pixma iX6850 bit the dust last week... 😅 My own opinion about printing at home? It's a lot of fun! And being able to print your shots whenever you want without having to wait for ordered prints is awesome. It's just not very economical. If you just print something every now and then and don't sell your prints then it is a fun but very expensive way to extend your hobby. My A3+ printer cost me 180€, which was a steal in my opinion. Canon's Pro Platinum paper which I liked to used is 45€ for 20 sheets at size A3. A full set of Canon ink cartridges costs another 80 to 90 bucks and lasts for 20 prints at most (funny coincidence that...) So the price for each print is actually pretty high. Over the 5 years that I used the printer I barely reached the same price for a print ordered online. And forget about cheap third-party ink and paper. It doesn't work if you don't have the right color profiles. I tried. The cheap ink also fades very quickly while the Canon ink lasts forever, at least it feels like it.
@@Joeheadred I haven't! They seem interesting though. But I'm pretty sure I won't get a photo printer anymore. I'll order my prints online from now on.
Thanks for the review of this software and printer; I’ve watched several others and have been on the fence for a year now on whether to pull the trigger on this printer. Looking forward to the upcoming paper vids and whatever else you have in store relevant to printer at home.
I was seduced by home printing with my first digital camera in 2001, and eventually spent thousands of dollars over 10 years on 3 different photo-quality printers, plus expensive inks & papers. AHHHH!! All 3 inkjet printers eventually clogged, and got thrown away. The last one, I paid like $300 just for a new print head, which clogged a year or two later. The BIG problem is sporadic printing. I'd print a bunch in a flurry of activity... and then nothing for a month or two. Long downtimes are the kiss of death to inkjet printers. They will clog. My current Epson printer is sadly not photo quality.... some MegaTank thingy. Good utility printer, but terrible terrible colors. I shall NOT be seduced again you vixen!!!
This video is gret. Thank you so much. Delighted to have found the channel. I have a problem though- Pro Print&Layout doesn't recognise my printer (Pixma ip8750). Anyone can advise on how to fix it? I tried to find a solution on-line but no lick Thanks
Nice commercial. I love having photo printers in my home and office as I can print pix quick and easy, but it really doesn't save much money. If your printer is not used, ink clogs the heads. Anyone that has done wood working will recognize the smell of spilled ink as it is the same chemical used to make wood glue (aliphatic resin). If I don't print every week I have to clean heads, and if I'm gone for a month, deep clean a time or two. That uses ink to clean ink, filling the absorber pads which when full shuts down the printer.
Anyone have this running on the PRo100 . Looks like it is not supported. Any links to those who have the process to get it recognized on a 2019iMac and Pro100 printer setup?
@@thenexthobby the next time you print, the printer will effectively dump ink to make sure the print heads are lubricated. Nobody really knows how much ink is dumped
Quite amusing that you're not aware of A-size paper! It's the standard sizes that pretty much the entire world bar the US is using, although to be fair most of us non-US people don't know what a Letter or Legal-sized paper is either. Heck, I even have to convert US-based sizes because we don't generally use units like inches here.
People are asking if it’s possible to print photos shoot with another camera than Canon:))) are your people asking if it’s possible to print photos with cats, dogs … or must to be just people in photos? Also you can print small photos or just big one? Your videos are so long just because of those stupid stuff, you like to talk a lot when is no need. Your followers are not so stupid!🙄
I used to print large prints. Have them hanging in my home. Used a Epson 7900. But it was a case of use it or lose it meaning it clogged and you’d have to run clean function. Ink costs were absurd.

Too bad it only works with the Prograf printers. Doesn't work with the IP8720 which is a very good 13x19 printer. I've compared my prints to those from my friends PG100 and it's nearly impossible to tell the difference.
Great video @Jared Polin . I also have the Pro 1000 at home and I love it. Just some things though. There has been a firmware update that takes the max length of a print to around 25.5". Also if you're not using canon paper, you need to ensure that the media type setting is set to the closest canon paper for that type I use Ilford paper and the canon media setting is in the name of the ICC profile they make for the type of paper. This info is usually supplied by the paper manufacturers when you get the ICC profiles. One other thing that is really useful is the accounting software you can get for it which can tell you the exact cost of each print. Very handy if selling the prints.
I have the Canon iX6820 and for a printer under $150 it gives me some superb prints. I print mostly a 9x12 image on an 11x14 sheet of paper. Currently I am using Moab metallic paper and it's a gorgeous paper. Printing is not complicated at all. I just make sure I take the time to get the image looking as good as possible.
I would really like to print my own, but I wouldn't print that often and my ink jets have always had the cartridges dry out well before they were empty.
Thanks for the video. I love the Canon plug-in for Lightroom. The best way to showcase your images in person is in print. People love seeing and feeling things. It is a part of the gift of photography!
For me who enjoys taking pictures as a hobby give up printing because of high costs of ink and paper and also having to renew printers, I started when ink cartridge was £7.50 now its £24 00 a cartridge multiply by 6 or 8 depending on printer.
What kind of color management are you doing? I calibrated my monitor with the spyder but still find my prints coming out much darker than what I'm seeing on screen. With the crazy price of ink I want to avoid making tons of test prints. I have the ix6820.
Your screen is probably too bright and displaying your images brighter than they actually are. That is the usual culprit. Turn your monitor brightness down and make a few small test prints until the print matches more closely what you see on your screen.
Great video Jared. I have a question. I am having trouble with the Canon Professional Print & Layout software. I bought a canon Pixma pro-300, two months ago using a MBP with MacOS Big Sur and everything was working fine. But I upgraded to MacOS Monterrey and the software stopped working. I tried to reinstall it, call tech support and the software still not working. I still can print directly with Lightroom but the colors are a little off. Do you have any suggestions ?
Canon's 'Professional' Print and Layout is a bizarre printing program. You can not import files that is Grayscale. You can not import CMYK. You can not print from a PDF. The only files you can open are RGB color. If you want to import a grayscale image you must first convert it to a RGB file and then tell the program that you want to print it in B&W. How on God's can all this possibly be true?

Nice video! I've made two photo prints in the last twenty years. If I were able to make money from prints, I might buy a printer, but I'm not on that level.
When deciding which photos that I deliver to a client I ask myself if I would want to see this printed. If the answer is yes then I ask how big I would want to print it. That's how I determine which of my photos are "the best of the best with honors, sir" as Fro would say: if I would pay to have it printed at 24x36 or larger then it's absolutely a keeper and worth spending a lot of time making sure everything is perfect.
I just want to print my own professional looking calendars. Snap fish took 8 weeks to get my order to me and shipping was outrageous. how big of a calendar can i print and what lb of paper is best? thank you
Id tell people to stay away from the wifi/bluetooth printing and stick to usb. Any little mishap on the connection no matter how small and your print is wasted.

And while people may love to have a large signed print as a gift or otherwise, when they see the price of custom framing, all bets are off! Really wish the native resolution of current cameras would line up with at least some of the “standard” frames. One trick I learned to ease the sting of custom framing, is to use a custom matte size to convert the custom frame size into a standard size. This involves having an uneven matte on the length vs height.
35mm frames were 8x12. same as a full-frame sensor. just edit to crop to a standard size like you would have years ago when ordering an 8x10 or 5x7, or as many many MANY of my images from long ago, were printed 8x12 with an 8x12 mat in an 11x14 frame. but you are so right! getting a custom signed print from someone and then having to get it matted and frame on their own, i'll bet it spends its life rolled up in the tube 95% of the time. if im going to give someone a print, its generally just and 8x10 or the above mentioned 8x12 with a mat, in an 11x14 frame. i dont buy expensive frames (local department store) and theyre usually tickled pink to get them
Thanks for producing this video. I bought the ProGraf 300. I use a Mac. Coming from windows I find MacOS very confusing when trying to print anything and to change settings. I wasn’t aware of this Canon Print module for Lightroom. I installed it tonight and followed your video as I was exploring it. Well done. Now printing to the 300 is so easy. Still a pain to have to set the print settings in the printer itself before sending the print job to it. But that I can deal with. Now to source some decent photo paper. I’m in Australia and none of the papers mentioned in the video are available here. Thanks again for your videos. I’ve learned a lot over the past 18mths when I got my first Canon DSLR, a 6D Mk2.
Seeing and American not knowing what a A4, A3 or A2 is like when they use imperial instead of metric like the rest of the world, the same happens with US Letter vs ISO 216.
I invested into the canon PIXMA pro 100 and it is the little brother compared to your printer. And it can print up to a 13 x 19“ photo. And seeing the results of your final image on photo paper is so rewarding. And all of my clients love their prints. I use canon’s pro luster photo paper and the colors are just so darn vibrant. It’s made me almost half of my income coming in. I’m about to invest into the Prograf 1000 if I get more steady print orders. But it has been the best decision to start printing my work
A really excellent vid. I’m certainly encouraged to try printing my images now. From what you say it’s all evolved a lot from when I tried a couple of years back and just became very confused, annoyed & frustrated. It took a lot of time to get nowhere. So thanks very much, very useful.
I've been printing for years and I also have the prograf 1000. It is all about the print as far as I'm concerned. Photography without the print is like peanut butter without the jelly. I love having an idea for a photo, executing it, and then holding it in my hands. Prints that are only on a screen or God forbid social media have such a transient quality as to be practically worthless in my opinion. And speaking of social media, Facebook and Instagram and the like have just about killed photography.
I watched your video a few years ago on the pro1000. I bought the same printer just this year, and I can say it’s help my photography more then any other piece of equipment. Also made me a bit of money 😉
Great video to get people to print their work. I bought a Canon Pro 1000 last year and I'm super happy with the results. For foto-enthusiast this really helps to understand your own photography better and to take more care during shooting. I share the point that it is really rewarding to hold your own prints. But there are 2 points to consider: A) cost and B) amount of printing. Canon´s printer clean themselves and use ink even if you are not printing. To bring down the costs you really have to print (and not waste the ink on the cleaning) or be aware that this is an investment in your skills and in flexibility. And especially the Pro 1000 needs regular printing. If you check forums and experience reports from owners you get 2 extreme sides: One side loves the printer and the results and the other side is frustrated of the ink costs, cleaning and clogged printer heads. For me myself I'm aware that I need to print and do that every 2-3 weeks. If you follow other recommendations they says between 47 hours and once per week. But so far no issue on my side. After one year I changed 11 out of the 12 ink cartridges and got approx 60 max size print and a lot of letter sized prints. Here in Europe a whole new set is about 580 € (approx. 620 USD). So 10 bucks per print + paper. Paper choices really makes the difference. The feel and look of the print is so much more than anything you can order online. Huge fan of Hahnemühle paper. I live about 2 miles away from the factory which produces paper since 1584. Looking forward to your take and favorites on the different papers.
This may be a dumb question but I like how "easy to use" that print and layout software. Could I use it with an Epson Sure Color T2100 wide format printer?
I use a Pixma MG7750 photo-printer and scanner in my home/office. While using non-genuine ink it is reasonably economical to use and it seldom clogs because I use it at least three days a week and sometimes for maybe a hundred+ various documents at a time. It does enter a purge and cleaning cycle quite often. Even between print jobs if they are further than maybe 20 seconds apart, which wastes ink. It is a dye based ink printer and makes really superb colour and black and white [up to A4 letter size] photo prints if one knows what they are doing by bothering to learn how to get the best out of it. The Pro1000 in the video is a pigment ink type professional A3+ size printer and will use a lot of ink whether it is used or not. This is due to its purging and cleaning cycles done according to a computer map in order to avoid blockages in its nozzles. Unless used nearly daily for multiple prints it will work out to be extremely expensive in terms of capital and running costs per print made. It is meant for intensive use by professionals which will lower its cost per print to very acceptable levels for the quality achieved and the potential income from print sales.
I use Costco a few times a year to print some of my photos. I really wish I had a decent printer at home, but I don't have the space for one right now. Maybe when I reconfigure my bedroom I will make a dedicated print area.
I just downloaded it and ran it, but I can't get it to find my Canon Pixma Pro-100. I have it running on my Mac via the network, but this software can't find it.
This is a very nice commercial for Canon, but at the end of the day 99% of photographers just don't print enough to justify the price and hassle. Online labs are not that expensive because they can take advantage of economy of scale.
Omg the last printer I had was a epson 17x22 printer long ago and I had to use windex on paper towels put it between print head and platinum to dissolve plugged up ink. I finally got rid of it. (Being so heavy had to slide it down the stairs to the garbage can.) This looks like a dream and just so hard to believe. But those prints are magnificent. Thanks I can’t wait for further paper info too.
I have printed some 4x6 on my ancient, consumer level Canon MP240. I was frusterated at first as there would be an blue hue on dark parts of my photos but once i switch my paper for Brother premium Plus Glossy Photo Papers. The blue hue is no more!
Any update on your video on printer paper? I'm looking at buying a great Canon printer, but paper types are just as important. I want to get a full understanding of what printer paper choices will make in real world applications. Love your stuff!!
If you were to / want to, make like 1 print per month or less, is it still worth an investment? The printer costs now must be so high with inflation, because everything can be more $ so it shall be, yaaaay
ye i have testet to print on a Big ebbson printer in sweden and the papper i did juse was "Hahnemühle Photo Rag" and i love the qualitiy off it :D but i need a video to how to frame with boders i have no clue...
Jared, here is a question for you. I have the Canon Pro 10 and I love it. Can the PPL software be used for my Pro 10?? Also, I only print from PS, I am not a LR user.
I used to use a Canon printer and am contemplating a new one. One of my concerns is the new trend of expiring the ink even while the cartridge is still full and has ink in it and refusing to print. Can anyone speak to this? I've considering looking elsewhere than Canon because of this.
Excellent video Jared. I print on the Pro100 and love the results it produces, but there are times when I'll wonder what the picture would look like printed on xyz and I'll head over to xyz's website and they'll have 20+ different papers and I sit there and scratch my chin and say....um...yeah. I read the descriptions of the paper but it just doesn't translate in my head to what it'll look like. So I am very excited to hear that you'll be doing a video on paper types. Thanks for all your video's and sharing the knowledge with us. Stay safe.
This was incredibly useful! Thank you. What a world of difference from when I last printed something at home, around a decade ago. You’re really tempting me to get back into this.
I wish this video had been out when I bought my Canon Pixma Pro-200 last year. It would've shortened the learning curve considerably. I love my printer.

And while people may love to have a large signed print as a gift or otherwise, when they see the price of custom framing, all bets are off! Really wish the native resolution of current cameras would line up with at least some of the “standard” frames. One trick I learned to ease the sting of custom framing, is to use a custom matte size to convert the custom frame size into a standard size. This involves having an uneven matte on the length vs height.
35mm frames were 8x12. same as a full-frame sensor. just edit to crop to a standard size like you would have years ago when ordering an 8x10 or 5x7, or as many many MANY of my images from long ago, were printed 8x12 with an 8x12 mat in an 11x14 frame.
but you are so right! getting a custom signed print from someone and then having to get it matted and frame on their own, i'll bet it spends its life rolled up in the tube 95% of the time.
if im going to give someone a print, its generally just and 8x10 or the above mentioned 8x12 with a mat, in an 11x14 frame. i dont buy expensive frames (local department store) and theyre usually tickled pink to get them
Thanks for producing this video. I bought the ProGraf 300. I use a Mac. Coming from windows I find MacOS very confusing when trying to print anything and to change settings.
I wasn’t aware of this Canon Print module for Lightroom. I installed it tonight and followed your video as I was exploring it.
Well done. Now printing to the 300 is so easy. Still a pain to have to set the print settings in the printer itself before sending the print job to it. But that I can deal with.
Now to source some decent photo paper. I’m in Australia and none of the papers mentioned in the video are available here.
Thanks again for your videos. I’ve learned a lot over the past 18mths when I got my first Canon DSLR, a 6D Mk2.
Sometimes I watch your videos and your intro throws my brain off course.
Seeing and American not knowing what a A4, A3 or A2 is like when they use imperial instead of metric like the rest of the world, the same happens with US Letter vs ISO 216.
Where the video for the paper type? Is there a way to put your logo in the margin?
What the numbers mean for when u said Fro 365 & Fro 366
I invested into the canon PIXMA pro 100 and it is the little brother compared to your printer. And it can print up to a 13 x 19“ photo. And seeing the results of your final image on photo paper is so rewarding. And all of my clients love their prints. I use canon’s pro luster photo paper and the colors are just so darn vibrant. It’s made me almost half of my income coming in. I’m about to invest into the Prograf 1000 if I get more steady print orders. But it has been the best decision to start printing my work
How much does ink usually cost you?
@@seriouzfilmz9397 for every $3000 worth of prints that I sell it cost me around $120 for ink.
@@LMActionsports I may invest in this how much roughly are your 8*10s
Do you mind if I ask what you sell? It's okay if you don't want to share that.
@@seriouzfilmz9397 30-35$
A really excellent vid. I’m certainly encouraged to try printing my images now. From what you say it’s all evolved a lot from when I tried a couple of years back and just became very confused, annoyed & frustrated. It took a lot of time to get nowhere. So thanks very much, very useful.
Buy a Canon pro... print... see the ink prices... in the bin after one roll of canavas...
I've been printing for years and I also have the prograf 1000. It is all about the print as far as I'm concerned. Photography without the print is like peanut butter without the jelly. I love having an idea for a photo, executing it, and then holding it in my hands. Prints that are only on a screen or God forbid social media have such a transient quality as to be practically worthless in my opinion. And speaking of social media, Facebook and Instagram and the like have just about killed photography.
Is this printer compatible with Capture One Pro?
What about my Nikon f5? I want to shoot film and later print it out
P.S. how much/ fast Ink will this eat up?
i was hopping that pixma ip8720 can print photo paper metallic
I watched your video a few years ago on the pro1000. I bought the same printer just this year, and I can say it’s help my photography more then any other piece of equipment. Also made me a bit of money 😉
Such a nice video Jared... Thanks a lot
So don’t have to calibrate the screen anymore ??
Sir which app are you using to Edit photo
Great video to get people to print their work. I bought a Canon Pro 1000 last year and I'm super happy with the results. For foto-enthusiast this really helps to understand your own photography better and to take more care during shooting. I share the point that it is really rewarding to hold your own prints. But there are 2 points to consider: A) cost and B) amount of printing. Canon´s printer clean themselves and use ink even if you are not printing. To bring down the costs you really have to print (and not waste the ink on the cleaning) or be aware that this is an investment in your skills and in flexibility. And especially the Pro 1000 needs regular printing. If you check forums and experience reports from owners you get 2 extreme sides: One side loves the printer and the results and the other side is frustrated of the ink costs, cleaning and clogged printer heads. For me myself I'm aware that I need to print and do that every 2-3 weeks. If you follow other recommendations they says between 47 hours and once per week. But so far no issue on my side. After one year I changed 11 out of the 12 ink cartridges and got approx 60 max size print and a lot of letter sized prints. Here in Europe a whole new set is about 580 € (approx. 620 USD). So 10 bucks per print + paper.
Paper choices really makes the difference. The feel and look of the print is so much more than anything you can order online. Huge fan of Hahnemühle paper. I live about 2 miles away from the factory which produces paper since 1584. Looking forward to your take and favorites on the different papers.
Came looking for info and just got an ad.
Hey JaredThat link is broken
This may be a dumb question but I like how "easy to use" that print and layout software. Could I use it with an Epson Sure Color T2100 wide format printer?
Thanks for video.
I use a Pixma MG7750 photo-printer and scanner in my home/office. While using non-genuine ink it is reasonably economical to use and it seldom clogs because I use it at least three days a week and sometimes for maybe a hundred+ various documents at a time. It does enter a purge and cleaning cycle quite often. Even between print jobs if they are further than maybe 20 seconds apart, which wastes ink. It is a dye based ink printer and makes really superb colour and black and white [up to A4 letter size] photo prints if one knows what they are doing by bothering to learn how to get the best out of it.
The Pro1000 in the video is a pigment ink type professional A3+ size printer and will use a lot of ink whether it is used or not. This is due to its purging and cleaning cycles done according to a computer map in order to avoid blockages in its nozzles. Unless used nearly daily for multiple prints it will work out to be extremely expensive in terms of capital and running costs per print made. It is meant for intensive use by professionals which will lower its cost per print to very acceptable levels for the quality achieved and the potential income from print sales.
I use Costco a few times a year to print some of my photos. I really wish I had a decent printer at home, but I don't have the space for one right now. Maybe when I reconfigure my bedroom I will make a dedicated print area.
So, on 17x22… you have to custom frame it? That’s what annoys me… I want to print standard gram size prints. And then there’s always having mount it.
Hey!Quick question.By chance can you make an inventory tour?All your cameras and gear?That would bd great!Piece!
According to Canon, this software is only available for the imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 and above. Is that correct?
I just downloaded it and ran it, but I can't get it to find my Canon Pixma Pro-100. I have it running on my Mac via the network, but this software can't find it.
This is a very nice commercial for Canon, but at the end of the day 99% of photographers just don't print enough to justify the price and hassle. Online labs are not that expensive because they can take advantage of economy of scale.
Omg the last printer I had was a epson 17x22 printer long ago and I had to use windex on paper towels put it between print head and platinum to dissolve plugged up ink. I finally got rid of it. (Being so heavy had to slide it down the stairs to the garbage can.) This looks like a dream and just so hard to believe. But those prints are magnificent. Thanks I can’t wait for further paper info too.
I have printed some 4x6 on my ancient, consumer level Canon MP240. I was frusterated at first as there would be an blue hue on dark parts of my photos but once i switch my paper for Brother premium Plus Glossy Photo Papers. The blue hue is no more!
Any update on your video on printer paper? I'm looking at buying a great Canon printer, but paper types are just as important. I want to get a full understanding of what printer paper choices will make in real world applications. Love your stuff!!
If you were to / want to, make like 1 print per month or less, is it still worth an investment? The printer costs now must be so high with inflation, because everything can be more $ so it shall be, yaaaay
ye i have testet to print on a Big ebbson printer in sweden and the papper i did juse was "Hahnemühle Photo Rag" and i love the qualitiy off it :D but i need a video to how to frame with boders i have no clue...
Hi Jared, can you send me the link to Canon PPL? I cannot find it on their site. Thank you, greatly appreciated.
Jared, here is a question for you. I have the Canon Pro 10 and I love it. Can the PPL software be used for my Pro 10?? Also, I only print from PS, I am not a LR user.
Unfortunately, I don't own a Canon printer. I own a Epson ET4760 and most of my photo printer are small prints of family and some vacations.
Hi Jared,
Did you already make the video about the papers! I couldn’t find it on your channel.
Cheers 👍🏻
I used to use a Canon printer and am contemplating a new one.
One of my concerns is the new trend of expiring the ink even while the cartridge is still full and has ink in it and refusing to print.
Can anyone speak to this?
I've considering looking elsewhere than Canon because of this.
Excellent video Jared. I print on the Pro100 and love the results it produces, but there are times when I'll wonder what the picture would look like printed on xyz and I'll head over to xyz's website and they'll have 20+ different papers and I sit there and scratch my chin and say....um...yeah. I read the descriptions of the paper but it just doesn't translate in my head to what it'll look like. So I am very excited to hear that you'll be doing a video on paper types. Thanks for all your video's and sharing the knowledge with us. Stay safe.
This was incredibly useful! Thank you. What a world of difference from when I last printed something at home, around a decade ago. You’re really tempting me to get back into this.
I love my canon Pixma pro 100. The prints are gorgeous. The thing never clogs even if you go months between printouts.
How do I know if my photo is ready to print and look as good on paper as it does on my screen. Thank you for your time it is always appreciated. 😊
I wish this video had been out when I bought my Canon Pixma Pro-200 last year. It would've shortened the learning curve considerably. I love my printer.
Thanks again Jared, you are the best . Have a nice day , from Stefan in Sweden 😀
Red River's 17x25 is awesome, as is their 9x13. Arctic Polar Luster is my go to.
I picked up a Pro 1000 about a year ago and it's fantastic, I've got A2 prints everywhere and even give pictures for birthday presents :)
Thank you for this. It's hard to find anyone talking about printing. I look forward to hearing about paper in an upcoming video!
