Canon announced the new imagePROGRAF iPF6300, iPF6350 and iPF8300 printers on Monday, and we already have profiles created for these exciting new printers. These new printers have new functionality that enables users to have our paper names show up in the printer driver as well as the front panel on the printer. This is excellent functionality, as there is no more guessing as to which media type to use when using our papers.

How to feed cut sheets of canvas through your printer
Here is a quick rundown of some ideas if you are wanting to print on cut sheets of canvas, such as our Moab Ansazi Canvas:
1) With the adjustable paper guide in place, slightly back off the guide about 1/4 of an inch away from the canvas. This allows the printer to wiggle the media into place.
2) Be sure to use the recommended paper path for canvas on your printer. Most printers do not allow you to use bulk, or cassette paper paths. Most printers require you to use a manual one-at-a-time feeding process.
3) Be sure to use the correct media type in your printer driver, in addition to icc profile. The media type instructs the printer to accept the proper thickness for the media, as well as it instructs the printer on how much ink to place on the media.
