About this product

Product Information

The Canon PIXMA Pro-1 Digital inkjet printer allows you to print your photos and even fine art with exquisite detail. This printer is made with the working professional photographer in mind. The Canon PIXMA Pro-1 is targeted towards users of digital single-lens reflex cameras, such as the Canon EOS 60D, 7D, and 1D. The print head on the Canon PIXMA Pro-1 features 12288 nozzles compared with the 7680 nozzles on previous Canon printers. This print head offers an expanded ink color gamut and printing speeds than were previously available. The PIXMA Pro-1 boasts 12 pigment-based inks/colors from the LUCIA family – including five monochrome inks: matte black, photo black, dark gray, gray, and light gray. In addition to these darker inks, the Canon PIXMA Pro-1 includes cyan, photo cyan, magenta, photo magenta, yellow, red, and the special Chroma Optimizer. The printer incorporates both USB and Ethernet wired connections – wireless printing is also an option with an external adapter. The printer also has a USB socket at the front, for those who may want to print directly from a camera. In terms of speed, The Canon PIXMA Pro-1 improves significantly on the Pro 9500’s printing time. Where the Pro 9500 and previous printers printed in approximately 7:55, the PIXMA Pro-1 prints a 13-inch by 19-inch print in just 2:55. Front panels enable easy access to these with a single button. The Canon PIXMA Pro-1 also has the capacity to print direct to CD and DVD. ICC profiles ensure that contrast range and color saturation look the same regardless of paper type. These profiles allow for more managed workflows and help ensure your prints match the images you see on your camera’s monitor. With ICCs, there’s no need to manually adjust channels in Adobe Photoshop—the printer and its drivers do the work for you. This printer allows for printing professional lab-quality photos as well as professional quality black and white prints. With print resolution up to 4800x2800 dpi, and ink droplets as small as 4 picoliters, your photography is produced with all of the detail and results of high-end professional photo labs. For black and white photos, you have the five monochrome inks, as well as Chroma Optimizer, which provides a clear coat that enhances the uniform glossiness of the paper, and increases the black density, for truer, richer blacks. Also worth noting is that there is no manual swappinag of black ink cartridges required, which saves both time and ink. Previous models required manual switching of black ink cartridges – a time-consuming process that often results in ink loss. In terms of capacity, the Canon PIXMA PRO-1 Digital Photo Inkjet Printer accepts papers as small as 4 inches by 6 inches and as large as 13 inches by 19 inches in size. The rear paper input tray accepts up to 20 sheets of photo paper. Thicker type paper, up to 350 gsm and 14 inches by 17 inches paper for less standard prints can be manually fed into the printer. The Canon PIXMA PRO -1 is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 and Mac OS X 10.4.11 and higher.

  • Pro-quality prints for a reasonable price

    Yes, it is huge but I owned an Epson 2400 before and that was very close in size. Any 13x19 printer is going to have a big footprint. Inks are excellent and while 3rd party inks like Precision are attractive, I'll stay with Canon inks for now, even though they are expensive. Key to getting the most ink use out of the printer is to never turn it off so it doesn't go through its cleaning cycle - only mixes the inks from time to time. If you do that, consumption is normal. Setup and use of ICC profiles is easy and results are spot on, especially if you print from .jpgs I print a few 8x10s per week and an occasional 13x19. My inks should last me at least 6 months or more. Very happy with purchase.

  • Was a headache during setup, but now works perfectly

    While I was setting this printer up (strictly following the manual), it went into a stoned state (error B200). I was intending to take it to an official repair center, but next day it surprisingly woke up, and finished the setup. And I've found a couple more similar stories on the Internet, so it's not only me. But besides that setup hiccup, now it works flawlessly, and produces brilliant images. Note that the printer is quite big and heavy, so plan ahead where you want to place it.

  • Professional quality!

    Impressive construction and superb quality prints. Highly recommended but only if you plan on making money with it otherwise it will be expensive to maintain. If you're in the market for this printer follow Jose Rodriguez on YouTube...many of your questions will be answered.
