I bought a new printer . . . back in May . . . and I used it for the very first time . . . today. Quite frankly once I pulled it (Canon’s Pixma Pro 100) out of the box, I was rather intimidated by the thing. Silly… yeah probably.
I’m sure I probably mentioned this before, I am no techy. I knew it would take a good chunk of time (at least for me) to get my bearings and some trial and error. I probably spent most of that time just trying to find the right word(s)/phrase to Google to find the answers to my questions. With a little help from DP Review’s forum, where I finally found the right term … “Matching”… to look for in my printer dialogue and then select “None” and Red River’s very well written how-to on my printer, I am pretty dang proud of the fact that it only took 5 sheets of paper (free sample pack that came with the printer) to get a Winner! Tonight I now have a printed, matted, and framed photo of my … boys 🙂 Speaking of firsts, it is also the first-ever printed photo of Charlie (on left) … and just taken this morning. It’s only taken me three years to get a photo worthy of printing that really captures Charlie (but that’s a story for another day). Yes, most definitely a day of accomplishments!
Oh, and two thumbs-up for for Lightroom 5 and the Canon Pixma Pro-100! Hmmm, maybe a review down the road.
Til next time,
