The obvious implication is that a clean cycle can be avoided if a tank is changed in under 60s. One would expect printing would rest this timer.
There is no mention of when the timer is reset. If the same ink tank is removed and installed back multiple number of times, cleaning is performed based on theĪccumulated period of time the ink tank is removed.)" (Cleaning is performed according to the period of time an ink tank is removed from the print head, regardless of whether the ink tank isĪctually replaced or not. "If an ink tank is removed for 60 seconds or longer, cleaning is performed.
PRECISION COLORS PRO 100 RED MANUAL
I will be making some suggested changes to the Purge sheet option in Qimage based on this information.Īnother useful piece of information in the above mentioned manual is the following statement: The count number is not specified as far as I can see. The above mentioned manual also mentions "dot count cleaning", which means the printer will also do a clean when a certain number of dots are printed since the last clean. I have never timed the cycle period, but since I have been using the Qimage purge sheets recently I expect both channels to flush at the same time. I would never have let it reach the 480 hours. On the Pro-100S I have observed the 120 hour cycle several times. The cycles being 115s for both or 100s for one channel. If greater than 480 hours has elapsed since the last clean then about twice as much ink is flushed prior to the first print. The quantity mentioned appears to be in grams so I will just reference the time mentioned for the cycle, which is either 85s if both channels are flushed, or 75s if only one channel is flushed.Ĭ. If between 120 hours and 480 hours has elapsed since the last clean, a small amount of ink is flushed through the head prior to the print emerging. If you send a print job to the printer and less than 120 hours has elapsed since the last cleaning cycle, no cleaning takes place before the print.ī. The Pro9000 Service Manual talks about 2 timers, ie. At least one other user has observed it to be the case for the Pro-100S. The Pro9000 Service Manual states that to be the case, so it is more than likely the case for the Pro-100 and 100S.ģ. I have observed it several times on my Pro-100S.Ģ. For the following 3 reasons I believe the cleaning cycles will happen regardless of whether a print has occurred:ġ. One of the common misunderstandings is that by using the printer, even just to print a nozzle check you can avoid an automatic cleaning cycle.
Couple the inkset with the largest list of Custom ICC profiles at no charge and there is really no other logical alternative.I have started this thread because I believe there is a general misunderstanding about the automatically generated cleaning cycles of the Canon Pixma Pro-100S and probably other Canon Pro models. The inkset is ideal for the beginner who knows little about the details of printing yet has so much color performance that even professionals will appreciate what it provides. This is simply the NEW REFILL REFERENCE for the Pro-100 and we think quite confidently nothing available from anywhere else comes close. So in May 2019 we introduce the Signature Edition inkset for the Pro-100 by Precision Colors. This inkset took about two years to come together and we evaluated as much as 1500 prints to determine what each color was doing to the total image noting that compromises had to be made. That simply means you are getting the BEST there is in the world short of the real Canon Ink. Some inks are substantially more costly to acquire and produce but we elected to specify it because we wanted to simply produce the BEST AFTERMARKET INK for the Pro-100 at pretty much any cost. We also during this time took our time to test and obtain the most durable aftermarket dyes available. This type of side to side comparisons is never done with Pro-100 refill inks for a reason. I continually did similar testing to tune the colors during development. Was I concerned that I would be placed side by side next to OEM? Not at all. We changed the inks to provide even better OEM matching than before. We elected to to improve it even further. Finally a dye ink printer that produces rich vibrant colors and amazing B&W photos! The Pro-100 the Canon dye equivalent of the Epson K3 pigment system! Vibrant colors and excellent shadow detail unseen before in an economical dye ink printer.Īll CLI-42 colors used in this printer are dye inks.Īfter having nearly 5 year run on the previous inkset which the market currently still regards as being the best aftermarket ink available for the Pro-100.
