    Please, oh please, keep the Q1 videos coming when you can! As I was getting serious with printing after buying a Canon 4100 a couple years ago, I was surprised to find how dissatisfied people were with general printing software, and that’s how I stumbled into Qimage One couple years ago. I figured that if I’m gonna learn, I wanna learn on the one I’m gonna use forever not something everyone hates. So I dove in, and despite a learning curve, I’m glad I did. I love many features and it just works for me. And yes, I agree Andrew from Binartem is always available to bail me out when I get stuck. Right now he’s helping me through a couple property setting bugs that popped up after loading the new version onto a new M4 Mac mini, but for now the workaround is pretty straightforward. But man, nothing like learning by watching somebody mouse around, so please keep it up! As for Folders I’ve always needed a better workflow: LR-to-Q1 so this helps, thanks. Will be printing for local clients, but I’m also going to be selling my own art so I need to establish some folders of repeat prints. I just haven’t decided how I want to structure that as an export folder from Adobe that I can reach into directly from Q1.

If you’re having those color issues letting Canon manage colors is a way to get your colors pretty close and get around the issue. But if everything is set up and working properly using ColorSync is the proper method to use ICC profiles and get your colors as accurate as possible. Does that make sense?

If you are shooting your own art knock yourself out. But if you are shooting for a client that is incredibly un professional and will spend days trying to get the prints to match. Camera Raw will do it just fine, it's just going to be more work.

    Great video and great advice. Agree with Canon choice 100%. I had an Epson 9800 which was horrible with the clogged heads. I found an alternative ink supplier and bought bottles and did my own refilling. I had to clean the heads everyday. I wasted a lot of the "cheap" ink too. The results were great but the constant head cleaning was just not practical because I wasted ink and more importantly lots of time. I got out of the large format printing but if I ever go back in again, Canon will be my choice hands down. I also have an Epson P800 but have not used it in years. It is probably dead by now!! BTW, I bought several Pro 100 printers when Canon was practically giving them away. I have not had major issues with them. Again, I am using after market bulk inks (refilling my cartridges) and the colors are as good as the OEM Canon inks. I have almost 85% cost saving in ink cost.

    I have recently discovered your channel and am really happy that I did as I like your style and the substance of what you convey. On the point of your video today, I used to own two Epson 17” printers, one of which being a 4900, and while it did produce beautiful prints when it worked, it gave me (to your point) so many clogging issues that it turned into a nightmare despite having two print heads replaced under warranty. I passed on the P900 for the reasons that you described and I went for the Canon Pro 1100 which is mechanically the same as the Pro 1000 but with reformulated inks. Having read nothing but praise about the paper feed system of the Pro 1000 and the quality of its prints, I was eager to give Canon a go. While the Pro 1100 produces gorgeous prints when it works the way it should, it unfortunately has banding issues that make every print a flip of a coin: will it print correctly or will there be banding? Canon replaced my unit under warranty (outstanding customer service I have to say - I had my replacement printer at my doorstep in less than 24 hours) but unfortunately the new one displays the same banding issues as my previous one. I hope that they will be able to fix this issue ASAP otherwise I will have to switch to an Epson P5370 as consistency and predictability are features that you would expect from a printer that gets marketed as a “pro level” printer. Just my 2 cents.

      @@phototocanvaspdxThank you for the suggestion - you have no idea how many things I tried. I have also been working with a technician who is with the manufacturer of my FA papers of choice (Canson) who has been nothing short of amazing at helping me out. I have custom profiles for all my Canson papers (created through their .a1mx files) and among other things I ran paper feed calibration for all of them. It did improve things a little bit, but it was only marginal unfortunately. I even sent the images that gave me most trouble to the Canson technician and he could replicate the issue on their Pro 1100. Unfortunately there is an issue with these printers. It does not affect all prints, some that I made and came out right are just beautiful, with spot on colors and deep blacks, but the problem is that you never know when the issue will present itself and that just doesn’t work. I am hoping that Canon is on top of it and fixes the problem soon because I want to like Canon printers but I am not there yet because this has been my first experience with them.

As to your question - based on what I read the Pro 1000 did not have banding issues (I did not own one, so I cannot attest to it directly), however the Canson technician told me that one of the images that I sent to him displayed banding on both the Pro 1100 and the Pro 1000. Go figure. One thing that I meant to add regarding your point that Canon print heads are user replaceable and Epson’s are not is that there is a reason behind it. Canon uses thermal print heads which heat up ink when they spray it out, so they are essentially consumables that need replacing after a certain (high) number of prints. Epson on the other hand uses piezo technology for its print heads which does not require heating up the ink to be sprayed out, so in theory their print heads should last much longer and not require replacement by the user. That is of course unless they clog all the time as my 4900 used to!

    20 yr Epson art printer here. I've never personally used the small format printers but I have heard the P900 is terrible for feeding thick paper and even worse if you add the roll paper option. I just run the small sheets through my big Epson printers. I try to use 17x22 cut sheets, but I have been known to print on cut offs. Printing on roll cutoffs is risky business as there is a good chance of head strikes. I love my 9900's, and the 11880 and we have been getting used to the P20000 over the past year but it's temperamental. Been thinking of switching to Canon just for the user replaceable printhead. The P20000 head is around $2500 plus tech fees. Love this video as I have been meaning to ask why you use Canon vs Epson.

The 9900, 11880, and now the 9570 all have straight through paper paths. My P20000 is not a straight through path but it still handles thick fine art sheets very well. No extra foot of paper needed, more like an inch on the Epson. I am always leaving some kind of margin and trim the excess so I do not really print right to the edge. Rolled Fine Art papers have caused me plenty of headaches over the years due to the curvature of the rolled paper hitting the print head. Those print head strikes can lead to a head replacement which is very expensive on an Epson compared to Canon.

    What if I'm selling photos online only, and want the prints to be the closest to what customers see on the thumbnails (which are sRGB)?

      Every monitor and room lighting is going to be different so you can never gauge that. I would always print an adobe RGB if possible SRGB if it’s not. Or p3.

    Light from the lamps in a room doesn't bounce off a matt printed artwork. That will make the artwork stick out. It can stick out like a sore thumb..OR it can stick out like a beautiful center piece. IMO, go for matt only if the art is breathtakingly good. Else, the satin will add a flow and continuity to the eye which scans the room. Now if your walls are painted in semi-glossy finish and your artwork is in matt, the artwork is not going to participate in the warmth of the room when you switch on a warm light bulb. For the artwork to participate with the room's glow, it has to be in the same satin finish as the walls. In this case the satin canvas print is going to look way more beautiful and coherent.

      @@mesebak most print on demand places use Jpeg because they want high numbers of files using up this little space on their servers as possible. It’s not recommended. I always prefer to print from tiff when possible.

    So basically, using these color spaces only makes sense in your specialized printer and paper right? most printers should still receive CMYK?

    • @phototocanvaspdx
      @phototocanvaspdx 2 місяці тому

      If you are talking about home desktop printers and what not I would use regular ol RGB. No average consumers are going to convert the files to CMYK so the printers are setup for RGB. The only people I know that use CMYK run presses.

    I just photographed some paintings for an amazing artist. She sells her paintings to an art consultancy company that does enlargements for hospitals and hotels etc. Obviously I'll have a dpi of at least 300 but what pixels/inches would you suggest I make them? Some of her paintings are small and some are 60"x60". She also requested they be exported as TIFFS. Since I don't know what size her future clients will enlarge them as what do you think the safest export setting would be?

    For my own work, i like to scale to the final size and actually cut out the gaps. For example, if i plan to space the panels 2inches apart, I'll crop out a 2inch gap between the print areas. Think of it like a series of windows where the gaps actually hide part of the scene. This avoids skewing the total aspect ratio once hung, and avoids some oddities in some images (like what appears to be a reeeaaly long car or something lol) I prefer it on my own mutli panel prints, but hard to work with others' prints this way sometimes withiut very careful coordination

    Good video but for a comparison should rwally have the same photo for all three examples. Comparing a dark sunset pic to a bright photo of a face is just too different.

      Noted. In my shop I have the same photo for comparison. My goal for the video was to focus on the reflective aspects. So yeah I agree for the contrast differences, but I was trying to show photos that I felt fit the paper.
