Iphoto 9.6.1 deleted printer paper choices (Canon Pro 100)

Hello,
I fear the iPhoto 9.6.1 update may have other issues with printers beside freezing, and would appreciate any suggestions -- otherwise, I'm passing on some information.
Using a MBProRet 15" with OS X 10.10.2 and a Canon Pro-100 hardwired connection (not wi-fi), I have installed iPhoto 9.6.1 yesterday and, today, in addition to suffering some printer freezes, I no longer have all the Canon paper choices that were available with the Print command pre 9.6.1 -- fine art paper, platinum, luster, matte, and all the others are gone, deleted, just not there any more in iPhoto. The Canon paper choices are still available in Aperture 3.6 (and even MS Word 14.4.8!). I have not installed any printer software updates recently.
Unfortunately, I didn't realize this until I had spent some 5+ hours earlier today re-organizing my library which will be lost if I restore the library from TM. Since I can still print quality paper from Aperture it's not a total disaster, but ... an aggravation.
Hopefully this isn't a sign of what's to come with the New & Improved Photos. Is there a permanent Opt-Out available?

Your printer driver is having problems.
Resetting Photoshop's preferences sometimes clears it up (by removing previous print settings that the driver is supposed to read, but sometimes fails at).
Otherwise you'll have to work with Canon to figure out why the driver is misbehaving.

How to print from Lightroom 5 to Canon pro-100?

When I go to print from Lightroom, the colors on my screen look exactly as I want them. Then I have the color management set to Canon Pro-100 with the type of paper I am using (pro-luster), but when I get the printer setup on my screen, I get different colors (ugly colors). I then print the picture, and I get the same colors that were on my screen for the printer setup (the ugly colors).
how do I set it up that colors will be managed by Lightroom? which option do I select when under the Profile section?
Thanks

I have the same printer, and get excellent results from it. You have two choices; you can either allow Lightroom to manage the color, or you can let the printer manage the color. You don't want both the printer and Lightroom managing the color. If that happens you get bad colors.
To allow Lightroom to manage the color you need to go into the page setup, which opens your printer driver and you need to turn off color management. You also need to set the paper size and paper type based on the profile you are using. There are usually instructions packaged with paper indicating what settings you should choose. After you have set everything appropriately in the printer driver you need to select the appropriate paper profile from the list available to you in Lightroom.
To allow the printer to manage the color, you choose that option in Lightroom. Then in the page setup you need to choose the paper type as well as the exact paper profile that you will be using.

Canon Pro-100 Paper Feed

New Canon Pro-100. Prints great. The problem: the paper feed in both the manual and the rear feeds are REALLY touchy. It will just declare that there is no paper when there is. I haven't found any clear differences when it works and when it decides there's no paper. I did find the posting on the rear vs. manuel feed confusion and helped some but it's still pretty picky. Any thoughts? I'm trying to run a small business with this thing and it's making my life very difficult. Thanks in advance.

I just rock the paper side to side slightly and sense for a firm bottoming. I generally don't have trouble with the rear tray. The manual feed is more tricky since generally it is heavier paper. I can feel when paper is bottomed. Once I developed that process I rarely have a problem unless I am printing multiple prints in manual feed and don't wait for all the mechanisms to stop moving.

Canon Pro-100 13x19" Prints - Images suddently printing misaligned/slanted - Please help!

Hi, I purchased a Canon Pro-100 printer about two weeks ago and I have been printing lots of 13x19 prints on Canon brand semi-gloss paper. I have successfully printed about 60 prints, but suddenly I have an issue. The images are printing misaligned/slanted on the paper, so that there is a sliver of blank paper on the bottom right and bottom left. Here is a picture of what is happening to the prints:

I have tried cleaning the bottom plate, cleaning the roller, aligning the print head both manually and automatically, but nothing is helping. When I print on 8.5x11 or 4x6 paper I do not seem to encounter this issue. Does this mean the paper is feeding unevenly for some reason? Please help!

please can anbody help or advise?

You didn't mention any color calibration being done on your monitor. This is an essential part of any color-correct workflow. What are you using to calibrate your monitor (and your printer)?
Print profiles (for soft-proofing as well as printing) are for specific combinations of paper & printer. The nine you have are each, most likely, for a common paper (perhaps mfr'd by Canon) to be used with your printer.
I don't know what you mean when you say "I choose a high standard print option".
Have you read the User Manual chapter on printing?
Printing Your Images
There is also a good appendix on calibration:

I have a problem connecting a canon Pro-100 injet printer to my iMac oS Mavericks.

I have purchased a Canon Pro-100 inkjet printer which I am trying to connect to my printer. The software on the disc was not compatible with OS Mavericks so Canon sent me the updated software. Still won't work. I get an air message which I have sent to Canon. They say it is an Apple problem which has occurred a lot recently. Aplle online chat support could not help. Has anyone else had this problem. I've got an expensive printer I can't use.

I know I have to give up on the printer and scanner- but I am going to try to find something to keep my tablet going for awhile.
Are you actually reading the responses that people are giving you?
1. Your printer will work with Gutenprint support, possibly will work with 10.9 drivers.
2. Epson has a scanner Yosemite driver for your scanner.
3. And Wacom has a driver for your tablet.
You have no reason to be that miserable, all things considered.

Printing to a Canon pro 9000 mark ii from creative cloud products

I am using Windows 8 and trying to print to a Canon pro 9000 Mk ii printer from Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. I am a register creative cloud user and have the latest drivers for the printer. I am using official inks and Canon papers. I just cannot get colours to print properly, the colours are too dark with a blue cast I recently changed to this printer from an old Epson 1290 that had good colour reproduction (for its age and that it was just a two cartridge system). At first I thought it was a problem with the printer, but after printing with several other programs I soon realised that this is an adobe problem exclusively!
Has anyone got a clue to what I am doing wrong or if there is a way of getting the adobe products to play nicely with the printer?
Thank you in advance,
Jeremy

Wildpaintings for color management issues you may want to consider posting your inquiry in the forum specific to the software you are facing difficulties with. Most likely you will either need to disable printer color management in the Adobe applications, if you wish to use the Canon Pro's color management, or disable the Canon Pro's color management.
The specifics on how to do this though is going to vary by application. I would recommend posting your inquiries to the following forums:

Wrong Color print in Canon Pro 100?

Hi, I just bought a Canon PRO-100 and pair it up with my PC win7 and CC14
I Calibrate my Monitor Samsung TA950 with
Datacolor Spyder4PRO
All my prints turn out orange and red .
And I did use the icc Profile .
Pls help

"my monitor has been calibrated"
I hear this all the time. It is the main reason I don't like all the calibration gadgets out there. You need to "calibrate" your monitor to what your printer is printing. Not some spec some gadget thinks it should be.
You need to know what the bias of the printer is. In this case Canon has put a reddish bias in it's printers to simulate a warm look. This condition will not be accounted for in calibration software or monkeys.
Get your brightness, contrast and grey-scale right and the rest will take care of itself. You can do the necessary corrections in LR to make up for, or leave as is, the warm tone from the printer.
BTW, you should be working in AdobeRGB or higher. Factoid, you can not get every color to match. This is not possibile. You are dealing with two completely different mediums. Light and dyes. Adjusting any color effects other colors as well.

Unable to center a print on 8/5 x 11 inch paper with Pixma Pro 100

I've been using a Pixma Pro 100 for just 3 weeks. No matter what I do or try, prints on 8.5 by 11 inch paper using the manual feed tray are not centered. In portrait orientation, the margin on the leading edge short edge is slightly less no matter what size the image. For example, if the leading edge margin is 1/4 inch, the opposite margin is 3/8 inch. If the leading edge is 7/8 inch, the opposite margin is 1 inch dead. The long side margins are equal. I'm using Photoshop Elements 9.0. I've tried printing out of the edit space, where "center print" is an option, but I realize now that this just centers the image in the window representing the print, that it does not center the image on the page. I have not notice this problem with smaller size paper, such as 4 x 6. Any suggestions? I have not tried loading the paper in the internal or "rear" tray because I thought the paper path with the manual feed would be straighter. Besides, I'd like to be able to use the manual feed with even larger paper and get centered prints.
P.S. I just tried selecting "borderless" print in PSE 9 with a custom image size smaller than the paper, e.g. 7 x 9.8 inches, and crop to fit. Just looking at the preview, this seems to have resulted in equal margins left and right, top and bottom (the L-R margins are different than the T-B margins of course). I was unable to make any of the necessary adjustments in Canon Print Studio Pro - I could not figure out how to unlink the height and width of the image.

"... that is a remarkably unhelpful and condescending response."
Condescending or not, however, it is still most likely PSE that accomplishs this task. I don't use PSE anymore since I switched to Lightroom. Hence the suggestion to find a PSE forum.
But it is the software that let's you move or put the photos where you want them to print.
A PSE forum may be able to show you how to do this. Example below, if I want two 5x7s in oppoiste corners, it is done easily in LR.
If I wanted one photo centered it is a simple click to get the adjustment "squares" and move the photo. (Bottom picture)
BTW, I am not worried.

Canon Pro-100 Problem end of paper

Can someone please help, This printer is Brand New only printed about 8-10 photo's . All of the sudden no matter what type of paper I use, luster, glossy, matt, I even tried cleaning the bottom plate and rollers using the Canon maintence program. It prints fine but once it gets to the bottom of any paper this happens , On this photo luckly there is white border but this happens on the prints itself if printing full image or if there is very little border. You can see black marks on the bottom of the print (white border) in this case. Also printer sounds fine except when it gets to the end of the paper starts making a funny sound and this happens. The print just get's ruined , anyone?

Yeah, my suspicion was, dark ink was getting where it shouldn't. The Canon cleaning system will only do so much. And if too much fouling gets where it's not supposed to be, it can be a nightmare to get out.
Perhaps the paper is not able to absorb that much ink?
I should have asked if you were using Canon paper? The best way to get going is to make sure you use Canon brand paper and Canon brand ink. Get it right and than experiment with other papers. Never, never use anything but Canon brand ink.

Won't print 8 1/2 x 11 prints to my Canon Pro

E. 11 It wont let me print an 8 1/2x11 to my Canon pro printer. 4x6s it will print fine. The response is " phtotshop cannot print this document". Please help

Can your printer print on A3 paper size? If not then 8.5 inches (width) may be a bit big for your printer.

I just purchased a Canon Pro 100 printer.

Installation went well. I have PC with Win 7, using CS6. I calibrate my monitor with Spyder Monkey 3. I can take my files to a custom printer in the Seattle area and my print matches my file 99% of the time (night sky images need a little further adjusting). I'm using Canon Paper. My prints are coming out a little dark, or not quite as bright as what's on the monitor. I understand that there may not be an exact match, but I was hoping for better. I'm not a real technical type, but with good instructions I can get the job done. Is there something more I need to do, or can do, to get a closer match to my monitor? I really don't want to go through a lot of custom calibrations with custom profiles if I can avoid it.
I'm printing staight from CS6 (I have LR4, but don't use it a lot). Selected the right paper; using CS6 for color management (using monitor profile in CS6).
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi. D50 is the color temperature and the other number is monitor brightness. Do you have a camera club in your town? Maybe you could contact them. Meanwhile, try setting your monitor brightness and contrast to 50 percent and see if that gives more pleasing results.

Problem elements 8 red river paper and Canon Pro 9000MKII

I am using a Canon Pro 9000 MKII, Red River arctic polar gloss and Elements 8. I believe I have followed all instructions correctly: I have installed the profile for the paper and disabled color management where it is indicated but all my prints are coming out decidedly too red with the result that browns look purple and greens look almost brown. Can anyone make any suggestions?
TIA
DG

Okay, here is where things stand: First I have calibrated my monitor with a Spyder Elite calibrator. I have downloaded and installed the latest driver for the printer. I have tried both "no color management" and "always optimize colors for computer screens". Selected "printer manages colors". Still getting a reddish tint, but marginally better. Have tried to manually adjust color by reducing the magenta which theoretically allows more green and yellow and less red. Interestingly the printer status shows of the eight cartridges, the red, green, black, light magenta and dark cyan are showing virtually no useage even after thirty five to for prints, a good number of which were 8.5 x 11. I have printed a test page and done the check nozzle for clogging tests and everything appears to be working fine.
I have seen some discussions of this issue on other boards with no resolution. I am going to try printing with another software package- probably some shareware rather than spend a bunch of money on software when the problem could be the printer. I really appreciate your taking the time to help. Any other suggestions would definitely have my attention.

Where do I find the ICC profile for my new Canon Pro-100 printer?

I downloaded ICC profiles for several different papers, but for optimum color management, do I not also need a ICC profile for the printer itself? Very new to this......I have my ColorMunki and I use Photoshop and Lightroom. Trying to get everything coordinated properly...........
Thanks for the help,
Laura Mowrey

If you downloaded ICC profiles for papers they should be for the Pro-100. The paper vendor prints a known pattern of colors using a Pro-100 and then uses a device to analyze the print. The ICC profile contains the correction info that adjusts the printer to make the prints look like the known color pattern.
The Color Munki will calibrate your monitor to make sure that the colors you see are correct.
I suggest you calibrate the monitor to,D50 at 80-90 lumens/m^2.
