Best printer I've owned so far January 8, 2009
J. Cull (California)
I guess I've either been lucky or the people who had problems right away are the minority, but the color of my prints are fabulous. Bought it two months ago. I'm an artist and have made prints of my work to sell, 12 x 16 so far, and with the museum quality paper they look perfict. I've always wanted a printer that actually printed the color correctly. All the printers I've owned before were not accurate to various degrees and certainly the color was not as vivid. I'm very happy with the pro 9000. I would recommend this printer to anyone who needs professional quality prints. I also use it when sending pictures of my work to galleries and shows who require photo's instead of slides.

Wow! January 8, 2009
Elizabeth Ingraham (the Great Plains)
Wow! I'm thrilled with this printer. Absolutely thrilled. I can't believe I have such a great printer at such an affordable price.

I have a low-end Canon printer at home, another in my art studio and two others in my design classroom and I was searching for a Canon when I was researching large format printers. I am very impressed by the sturdiness and reliability of all my Canon printers and very satisfied with their ink cartridge system and wanted to stick with the Canon brand.

I haven't printed photos yet--but will. (Using CS3--well, soon CS4). Right now, I'm using the printer to print images from a topographical map program. I'm scaling up portions of the maps into other media and I was becoming frustrated with the limitations of a 15" laptop screen and an 8.5 x 11" print. Now, I'm using a 30" Apple Cinema Display and printing on 13 x 19 paper and experiencing printing nirvana.

I'm using 24 lb bright white bond that I got from an internet source; just search for "13 x 19" paper and you'll find a wide range of paper at good prices.

I do like that the printer completely closes (good for dust control) but nonetheless I made a custom cover for it, partly to camouflage its bulk. As others have noted, the printer is BIG, so allow for a wide stand and plenty of room for the front and back paper trays.

Three tips:
First, I did have some trouble learning how to use the front sheet loader. Silly me, I thought the paper would feed from the front and exit the back, but instead, you manually feed the paper from the front toward the back and the printed sheet then exits the front. Once I understood the paper path, I did appreciate that the printer drivers prompt you to insert the paper, press the front feed button, etc.

Second, if you want to use the auto feed for 13 x 19 paper (for proofing, or if, like me, you're printing chart-type output on bond paper) note that the auto feed only supports paper up to 12.95 x 23 inches (even though the paper feed is wide enough to handle 13" media.) To print on 13 x 19 paper, just set up a custom paper size of 12.95 x 19 and print away.

Three, although the specs say the printer will print on lighter weight paper (17 lb, if I recall correctly) I wouldn't use anything less than 24 lb if you're going to use the auto feeder. I just feel that there is a good chance of paper jams with lighter weight paper.

What I got was what I wanted January 8, 2009
CynK
The Canon Pro9000 is my 4th Canon printed. When I purchased the printer I hoped for if not expected the image results that I received. I use Adobe photoshop CS3 Extended to alter and print my photos and have worked on a photo for hours just to have my HP printer fail to print the picture exactly as I wanted it. The Pro 9000 has the ability to print in the CS3 environment giving true colors excelent sharpness as well as other desired outputs.

PRO9000 January 6, 2009
Sergio Segre (New York)
Pros: it's an excellent printer, well built and prints beautifully.
Also it is well integrated with Mac X 10.5 and Adobe CS3.

Cons: the usual one, the ink is too expensive.

Great WHEN it works, but that isn't often December 28, 2008
Travis Llado (Honolulu, HI)
I've had this printer for a year now. When it was actually printing as designed, it produced beautiful pictures. It worked perfectly for exactly one month. After that I started getting the error messages "5C00" and "5100". I've never been able to find out in any detail what they mean or how to repair the problem. I was gone from home for about 8 months and when I came back it suddenly worked again, no messages ... for about 2-3 weeks. Then I got the messages again and no matter how many times I unplugged, restarted, reinstalled drivers, etc, I couldn't get it to work. After a few weeks of this it miraculously started working again. Now it gives me the error randomly about 25% of the time I try to use it and as soon as I unplug and restart the printer the message usually goes away. However, it's also learned a new trick: the non-existent paper jam, reminiscent of Office Space. It will sometimes tell me I need to fix a paper jam when there is, without a doubt, nothing inside the machine. Other times it will say there is a jam when the paper is going through normally without any problems. This is especially annoying because it has, just in the last few days, developed the habit of pulling in a sheet of paper every time I turn it on and, sometimes, randomly while it's just sitting there. Whenever it makes this decision to suck in paper without anything in the print queue it always puts the paper halfway through the machine and then stops and "jams". I'm done with this printer. I have three Canon cameras which I love and I've never had a problem with any of them, but this is the first and last Canon printer I will buy.
