Don't Make This MAJOR MISTAKE When Printing Photos

Not choosing the proper profile might lead to wasted ink, paper, and inevitably money. Who's made this mistake before???

So this is a clickbait title, followed by an ad, starting with another ad.

Never knew about the plugin... I just installed and used it and it made a huge difference in color accuracy. I always love your videos on printing!

Excellent video. I recently started attempting to print some of my images. The info about media types and printer profiles was enlightening.

I recently picked up the Spyder Print from Datacolor to add to my calibration system. Made a beautiful difference being able to make my own profiles based on what medium I print on.

That’s awesome..Been a photographer for 22 years and I’m only 33 years young and just started printing based on @daniel milnor’s advice to use decent paper in even a “crummy” all-in-one printer. The results are fan-freaking-tastic!!! I now love printing! So thank you for sharing this with your broad audience! Really. Printing is the chefs kiss to having made a great photo. BTW, any chance you will be coming out to Vegas anytime soon? I’m the dude you met last year with the prints. They were just little Costco prints but man it would be good to see you again and show you my new all-in-one printer photos haha.. etc etc.

Thanks for the video and the tips, ESPECIALLY the Printer Profile tip, it's SO important.. I have an older, smaller Canon printer and use different papers depending on the mood I'm trying to create along with the image... Moab's Slick Rock Metallic Pearl 260 is a fantastic glossy metallic option, and is super sharp, contrasty and dynamic.. again, thanks!!

I've used Red River, Ilford, and Canson papers, and I keep coming back to Canon's own Pro Platinum for my Pro-10. Honestly, the quality is just as good or better than the others, but the deciding factor is that the price is better. My second favorite is Canson Baryta Photographique II. I've had issues with Red River paper curling or the ink scuffing when I cut my prints.

The plugin was the best advice ever!!! Thanks Jared!!!

This is actually helpful for me because I have been using (without knowing) Canon paper profile with non-Canon paper for my Canon printer. I just downloaded the paper profile for the paper I use.

The profiles are the reason I stick to Canon paper because it's so convenient to choose the paper from the drop down menu for my canon Pixma pro 100.

Canon Print Studio Pro plug-in for Lightroom turns the hair pulling ordeal of printing from LR into a fairly straightforward process. Glad you recommended it.

Been waiting for something like this. Cheers Jared.

Great video Jared, I have had the Canon imagePRO-1000 for a couple years now and love it, yes at first I did only use Canon media, but not any more. There are other alternatives that work just fine.

Great video! I bought the pro 300 and let me tell you printing your photos is great. Expensive yes. But nothing beats giving someone a print. I’m to new to sell maybe one day. Cannon does make it easy.

I love your passion and enthusiasm you have have really taught me so much thank you

JUST IN TIME! I just got a Canon Pro-300 and a bunch of RedRiver Paper to play with! interested to see how the Arctic Polar Luster Metallic looks. That Soft Gloss Rag is fantastic...

Appreciate the lecture. Not enough information or media on photo printing out there 💚

Finally something about the process. Very interesting. The paper choice can really alter the effect. Awesome printer.

Picked up a Canon Pro-1000 at your recommendation, using Red River Papers. Gorgeous prints! Only “problem” is the amount of ink it uses when agitating. A complete set of 12 ink cartridges and maintenance cartridge is over $600. It uses a lot of ink when turning it on or agitating. Need to wait and make a lot of prints at once to avoid as many power on cycles as possible.
