Hi Garry , once again an absolutely brilliant tutorial , I really appreciate the time you take to do these tutorials as I know that you would rather be out shooting , getting back to exposing your Images once you are finished everything else { sharpening etc.} , just a useless piece of information but what I do is a brightness / contrast level , and move the brightness slider up to say 7 or 8 and then move the contrast slider up to 12 , something that has always worked for me , take care , Phil

Oh Gary, you taught this old dog a few new tricks in printing today! I have been using Photoshop since version 1.0 and never realized that there was a menu item for seeing my icc profile rendering my image. I also love opening a new document the size of your paper and placing it on it, it is so much easier to see what you are getting. I never used Photoshop to print from before, I normally use Qimage One for the Mac which has a few quirks! Thanks again and keep up the great work... love it!

Great advice Gary. I brought a Canon Pro10s a week or so before the the first lock down and not looked back since. I had plenty of time to play about and learn a thing or two, more so about colour gamut warnings which was completely alien to me. To avoid too much wastage, I do my test prints on 6"x4" paper, make adjustments then print on A3 once I'm happy. Obviously the two sizes of paper are of the same brand and type. I regret I didn't buy the bigger A2 model but I'm running out of wall space as it is.

Very nice tutorial for anyone who is new to printing. It pretty much covers it all. Here is some additional info on my 2 years of printing on the Canon Pro 1000. The only way to save ink, is to print as much as you can. Don't buy such a printer, if you only print once a week. I print at least one print each day. Canon provides you with an excellent tool to calculate the cost for each print. If you print a lot, the cost per print is fairly low. It is expensive, if you only print every now and then. To keep the printer as maintenace free as possible, don't print borderless. As for paper, the Pro 1000 can be used with almost any inkjet paper. There are many 3rd party paper brands, some of them much cheaper than Canon paper. I am using paper from Hahnemühle, Ilford, Epson and PPD. PPD paper is cheaper than the other brands and produce quality prints. Good every day paper. My goto printer software is Qimage Ultimate. Highly recomended. Happy printing.

Regarding the ICC Profiles: I have a Canon Pro 100-S (much older than the printer Gary is using) and the ICC profiles make a HUGE difference, they probably make less of a difference with new higher end printers. I print from Lightroom, but I don’t use the “Print” tab, instead i use Canon Print Studio Pro plugin, and it’s excellent. Regarding papers: The Canon papers are excellent, I also love the Permajet papers. Happy printing all 👍

Added 0.65 exposure and they are identical with the screen. I pretty much watch this video (not all) each time I print.

Thank you for a lot of great information. Just a comment on a detail: When you went through print size, you mentioned 300 dpi. The correct is ppi as is actually showing in Photoshop. Contrary to what some people thinks, dpi and ppi can not be used interchangeably. All editing software are using pixels. The only thing using dpi is the printer driver, and we have no control over that 😊

Very interesting tutorial, just a few thoughts, a test print is the most important print with any new paper or printer( there loads on the internet you can download) it enables you to compare print to print, as opposed to print to screen, and helps give you more predictable results, once your happy with your test print. Canon do not make their own paper, this is carried out by third party. The advantage of using canon papers on a canon printer is there is a generic ICC already programmed in, ICC,s are important they are in essence a translator between RGB, media type, and CMYK and paper used. The most important part is that you were happy with your print at the end, and that’s all that matters really. The one question is the print looks great at A3+ , so should you have bought the next size up?

Hi Gary, it was indeed a no nonsense tutorial. Something you mentioned a few times during your tutorial was the need for experimentation. You don't need me to tell you how expensive paper and ink are just now so experimenting can become expensive very quickly. I checked the price of the paper you are using and they total just over £200. As you are a professional photographer you can probably justify the layout but for Joe Bloggs I would probably need to experiment on 6x4 paper if that's a possibility. Thanks again for your tutorial.

My go to paper with my Canon Pro-1000 is the Epson Exhibition Fiber paper, my preferred size is 17x22, stacked up on it a few years ago as the price has increased significantly. I also use Canon and Epson Luster, both are pretty much identical. For the Epson exhibition paper I use the Canon ICC Pro Luster setting with excellent results. I also use Dell monitors, I also color calibrate them to get the best results possible. For printing I use Affinity photo and I always soft proof the image before printing, then uncheck soft proof when I am ready to print the image.

Morning Gary, interesting video. I have a Canon Pro 10S A3 printer which kicks out some great prints. I use Fotospeed paper both gloss and satin finish. Can I ask you this, if you're framing a print with glass on top would you know any difference in the finish of the paper or not? For example the difference in the colour or saturation of the print. Also, I use genuine Canon refill cartridges. There are lots of independent makes for replacement or refill but would you agree genuine cartridges are the way to go for any printing. Cheers mate, Richard

Hi Gary, greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada. I have a pro-200 that prints A3 plus, and does amazing prints. I also use Canon Pro-Luster paper. I'm super happy with the results except I've noticed the paper warping under the mat in certain situations. I tape at the top and let the paper hang and react accordingly to the elements. The weight of the paper is 69 pounds here in Canada. I'm wondering if you or any of your subscribers have noticed any warping of their papers in certain situations? I don't have custom frames and try to keep the costs down for anyone interested in my prints by buying from big box stores which are mostly Chinese frames. This probably contributes to a certain degree when framing for a 12x18 inch print with a mat for a 18x24 inch frame or larger. I'm just wondering if anyone may have the same issue? Thanks for the the entertaining content. I do enjoy seeing what's on the other side of the coast. :-))

Hi Gary, thanks for your video. I have one more question - if you create a new document with the size of the paper, copy the image into the document and then print the document with margins, does Photoshop "know" that the margins from your document are the margins for the printer? I think you have to print "borderless" in the driver to use the margins of the document, otherwise it would print a border (from the printer driver) around the edge of the document, or am I wrong? Hopefully this isn't too confusing...

@@johndough82Hi John, I did buy the Pro 1000 and I have to say I am very impressed, the photos print out as good if not better than the print shop I was using and it’s great to be able to do the whole process start to finish myself. As ink goes I’m still using the original ink, each cartridge showing just under half full, i have printed maybe 10-15 A2 size and maybe 30ish smaller prints of various sizes. The ink cartridges when you first put them in they have to fill the tubes to the printer heads and therefore the cartridges show just over half full, after doing so, but the ink is still there to use, you just don’t see it in the cartridge gauge. There is a lot of advice on KZfaq about ink usage, I changed the setting so the printer never turns off (every time it turns off the printer does a cleaning cycle which uses ink) and I print every other day even if it’s something small. There is a Facebook page also for this printer which has some good knowledgeable people in it. All in all I am so glad I bought this printer. Sorry a bit long winded but hope this helps. Ian.
