This causes insufficient ink during printing but looks fine in a nozzle check which leads people to blame the ink when it was their own fault. Waiting until the cartridge goes fully empty causes the sponge to desaturate and then after refilling, doesn’t not resaturate again unless flushed. One thing I have to mention that rarely anyone mentions is the fact that you have to refill after it’s low and not when it’s empty. ![]() ![]() Refilling is a breeze as long as you follow PC and Jose’s videos carefully. With these tests I’ve also confirmed that I can display these prints in a regular environment, away from direct sunlight in my own house with my specific ozone levels and my prints wouldn’t even start fading for at least a few years.ĥ. So, the black and white prints on matte papers start fading the fastest and RC papers fade slower for both color and B&W.Ĥ. Also, prints on matte paper (ex: Canon Pro Premium Matte & Staples Ultra Premium Matte) fade almost twice as fast as prints on RC coated papers. With these tests I’ve so far concluded that the yellow and blacks are what start fading the fastest with some of the shades of black slowly turning brown. I live in LA so my crude appromoxation is that I get at least 100 to 200 times more light intensity over a unit of time on the prints stuck to my window than I would get if my print was hanging in that same room unprotected.ģ. I am conducting some very crude experiments with a variety of papers using my south facing window. For me, PC inks are about 95% color accurate for most prints and about 90% accurate for the rest of the prints overall, including B&W prints.Ģ. You can achieve over 95% accuracy by using the provided PC42G profiles or even better if you own calibrating hardware or use the pattern print in Print Studio Pro to schieve almost perfect results.ġ. Im an enthusiast photographer and I have been printing with PC inks on my Pro-100 for half a year and here are my initial opinions based on my experience. ![]()
