      Last week, I bought a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 printer, the smallest in Canon’s latest large-format printer lineup. I had to dispose of my 44″ roll printer, the PRO-4000, when I moved to our new house this year, and I went without a printer for six months as I didn’t want to invest in the PRO-1000. I wasn’t about to invest in eight-year-old tech and hoped that Canon was working on something new. I didn’t have my antenna up, being busy with other things, but I had a job coming up that required a printer. I also don’t like not being able to print my work as I complete shoots, so I looked online and found that the PRO-1100 had been released around a month ago, so I placed my order.

      I started creating a video to show my first few prints to see how this new printer shaped up, and I recorded most of my work with my iPhone. It’s rough around the edges, but I show how easy it is now to get great prints. I have also continued to print other images, and I love this printer despite it being such a drop in size compared to my PRO-4000.

      I’ll follow up with some additional thoughts soon, but for now, please check out my initial thoughts video.

        FYI. The manual feed paper options show up on the display when you insert the paper in the read slot. They can also be found in the printer settings, however it is easier to set by just inserting the paper and checking the display for the paper type.
