Title: Been Asked Before I Bet? But Epson Paper Canon Printer
Post by: russellsnr on September 11, 2018, 05:44:45 PM
Hi, Ok it has probably been asked before all over the net but here at least you get info from people who do print there images. So my Epson R1900 has gone to printer heaven and I have a Canon ix6850, not the best printer from Canon but what I could afford at this time. I do have the ColorMunki Photo so can make my own profiles and have a lot of Epson paper so the question will profiles work Epson on Canon please? Thankyou, Russ
Oh yes I only print for myself and fun.

tHE ANSWER IS ABSOLUTELY yes!
I too switched from an R 2000 Epson to a Canon Pro 100 and was loaded with terrific Epson Ultra Luster and Glossy.
I had two profiles made for me, and the prints are luscious.

Russ, just an opinion.......
I have Canon Luster, Semi gloss, and Prem Glossy. I have Ilford Pearl.
I have Epson Ultra Luster and Prem Glossy in A4 A3 and A3+.  (It's not cheap)
It is so beautiful that I save it for special prints.
The winner in the matte paper though, is Canon Prem Matte and even the cheaper Canon Matte Paper MP 101.
