Re: Canon Printers

Hi Michael;

To my knowledge no one (including the Piezography people) has been 
able to get B&W pigment inks through a Canon head-apparently the 
Canon head technology doesn't generate enough pressure to keep the 
inks moving through. As a result, non of the Canon printers are 
supported by any of the RIP/systems you'll find discussed on this 
forum. There is a Canon forum;  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Canon-
printers/ try there, I believe Canon is about to release 
some 'archival' dyes which might be worth looking into.
