I've accidentally deleted this video when I uploaded my latest video. Here it is again.
I've been using the Canon Pixma PRO 200 for the past 5 months for some of my portrait work and mostly for experimenting with prints for my afterwork.co website and this TH-cam channel.
Have a look!

man i love to listen to that easy voice . i am learning a lot about this printer .. Thanks
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks!
Great video I had a Pixma Pro 9000 that recently died on me Bad power supply. It was a great printer. My Mom bought me a new Pixma Pro 200 for Christmas and I am very impressed with it. Thanks for this video it's really helpful as I am still learning this printer.
Does your new Pro-200 make better looking prints in comparison to the Pro 9000 you had? Or they are indistinguishable?
Thank you for such a beautiful review, I saw this on Amazon recently as I was unhappy with the quality of some recent prints. I feel so much more comfortable purchasing this and definitely subscribed.
Thanks!
Thank you for the tip
Good video. I have the PRO-200 for light use. Love it overall, color results are outstanding, maintenance ink is minimal, and good B&W can be achieved with some trail and error. I have a calibrated screen. My favorite general purpose paper is the Canon Pro Semi-Gloss (SG-201)
I've had my printer for a few years and it's worked great for me. Just one gripe; the buffer memory seems to be too small. It takes forever to process a larger print. Not talking about the printing time but the time it takes it to process it for printing. Is there a way to increase the internal memory?
greetings from Vegas. Im no professional, but ready to start printing out my desert landscape images. Thank you so much for your video's, so glad that I subscribed. Im researching printers, and believe - because of your videos - that im zeroing in on the Pro 200 vs. the Pro 100. Like I said, Im no pro, however quality matters. Welcome back to Vegas Jon.
You will find that the 200 is a more user friendly photo printer than the 100. Otherwise, the prints are pretty good either or
Awesome Jon. Can sense your honesty in this. Would be nice if you could do one on framing...
Can you print straight from your cell phone if no internet
Is the puxma 200 still worth it to buy or should I buy later model? Which model? Thanks
Still holding up? I'm looking to buy a printer in the 450 range and this seems to be the best option at the moment.
yeah, pretty much, i am at about 3 to 4 cycles of total ink change, all is well...
@@jonlow thanks!
Hiii Jon🎉I love your content! Is this printer good for printing stickers and bookmarks plus notepads please. If so is there a particular brand of paper I should use for my products? Please😊
how many pages have you print with the cartridges at a time. After how many pages you change the cartridge?
Hey Jon, thanks for the nice video. Does this printer require any particular maintenance? Does it auto-clean the print heads too often or waste too much ink in this process? I'm asking because I really do not intend to print so often, so it is likely the printer will be sitting still for a month or two between a "print frenzy".
I'd probably try to find a pro 10 or 100 instead as the Inks can be more easily replaced as the chips can be reset easily. Otherwise you'd have to rely on 3rd party ink monitors.
TH-cam should really add "undo delete", at least for 24 hours since deletion. I have also accidentally deleted video!
Does Canon have a feature like Hp's Insta Ink? They send me ink when I need it??
Great video and thank you for sharing this. I do have a question and I was wondering what the print speed is for an A3+ as per the site its 1 minute and 30 seconds so I am curious to know how accurate is that information?
Hello I have a quick question I purchased Epson 15000 a Canon Pro200 and I am trying to decide which one is good for me. The Epson Layout and print, when I size my pic to the right size, the margin are equal and it looks nice, but the Canon Pro 200 I can't seem to have control own the margin, Although I center it , chose Image slot position size, checked Mainting Slot aspect ratio but I still need to manually resize the slot zie using fill slots with image. Any suggestions on how to have the margin automatically equal and ill the paper.? thank you
Hi Jon, I've seen many wonderful photos in your videos printed with your PRO 200. Are you complitely satisfied with your printer or sometimes you think you'd better buying the PRO 300? Have you ever had some problems with this printer or it's very reliabe? Thank you!
My only complain as a hobbyist printing is that ink are expensive. I like the printer and love the result I get from it. Albeit of cos I don’t own the pro 300 to know what I am missing
Thanks for the information. My precious ip7250 has finally died and I'm thinking of the Pro 200 as a replacement. the million dollar question - how do these prints compare with those from a printshop such as nPhoto, whitewall or DSCL? I dont print a lot so need to factor the cost of the printer, ink and paper against a lab print
Hi. Where I live. We don’t have nphoto, whitewall nor DSCL. Printing at this stage in 2023 is more like a hobby than something that make sense unless you are in this line of business. Think of it like getting a proper espresso machine at home or go to a reputable cafe for a good cuppa. I like the prints from the canon pixma pro 200 with different medium of papers
@@jonlow those were examples. If you live in a country which has no photo labs at all then that would be very rare. Even more rare if you live in a country which has no photo labs AND no other photo labs ship there.
My question, put more simply was how do the prints compare with a professional photo lab
@@DJColinCook simply good.
A question is it good for small and medium size greeting cards?
Hi! Does Canon Pro-200 support the Macbook M1?
The Canson is brutally good if you use the profile they give yo for canon luster or semi gloss. Slightly pricey as it seems that Canon is giving away the Luster and Semi-gloss
Dear, Jon Low
Is it possible to receive a sample print ? ... I'll purchase it
I'm working with my 3rd Canon 200 in 8 years. t gets a lot of work. I only use it with a hard wite connection as I have machines lose connection mid print with wifi. The Dye based inks and Canon semi gloss give me salable prints and my own B&w architecture images are almost as good as the pigment based prints tha I made with my Epson at a fractin of the waste/cost. I used to talk to Kodak techs about C41 prints and the claim that they were "archival" (expected to last 100 years). The Techs assured me that I would be long dead before the prints faded. It was very reassuring
That's great insights @lightbox617 . I am glad you found what works for you ;)
Just curious - which paper are you using for the B&W arch photos? Also the Semi-Gloss? Thanks
I’m thinking to buy one to run small printing business as side hustle in Saudi Arabia.
Do you think it’s wise good asset to invest my money on ?
Any concerns with archival quality? Considering it's dye based, and dye based inks tend to fade when exposed to light
I will assume this will be the same as this is a dye ink printer. Never tested it that way, Let me hang a print outside and compare it later on in months.
Would i be able to print on vinyl sheets ? Like a decal
friend, how many colorful A3 photos with enough color can she print before she runs out of cartridges?
That’s a very subjective question. Each cartridges runs out at a different timing. You may use up all the blacks while the rest of the cartridges are still available
why one of the margin are always larger than the other in oposite side? And how to solve it in printing
I've made this video quite awhile. My guess is how I mount the print in the frame. The thicker margin, I usually number the print and date them.
@@jonlow ok. but if i don't want this thicker margin, how i can solve this ? if possible. it's look like bad for the client
@@f3m467You should be able to adjust your margins in the print app. Redo the framing positions to your hearts content. Or print borderless even ;)
@@jonlow in print app ( Canon Profisiional print and layout ) all are ok. but after sending to the pro 200, the print came with a large margin than the other margin side. :) . Printer default? maybe
can you print from a usb drive?
$600 though. I bought a Canon PRO 100 last year for $50 from a guy that had several PRO 1000 and the 100 wasn't being used. I bought a refill kit from Precision Colors and have been happily been printing at a much lower cost than buying Canon cartridges.
I would do the same if I had such deal :)
For $50 for I assume a working PRO-100 is a good deal. For everyone else, used PRO-100s go for over $400 including shipping. Compared to a new PRO-200 at $600 that is not even close to worth it. I don't use non-OEM for my work. I am either giving it to customer or using it for longer term use, both situations where I won't use non-OEM ink. I know Precision Colors makes some good colors that match, but has questionable light fastness depending on the color used
Hello, is this printer good for silkscreen transparencies? canon pixma pro 200?
I know the canon pixma 6820 for this purpose. But it is no longer possible to obtain it in my country. There are some Canon printers are they good for transparencies too?
canon pixma pro 100
canon pixma ix6850
Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1000
what do you recommend me
I will be very thankful
I Love your voice..very smooth
Great video, would you recommend this to someone who mass prints (few hundred a month) I’m worried I’d spend soo much on ink alone.
I think there might be better solutions for mass production
Thanks for the video... very informative.
Glad you find it useful. :)
Thanks fore this information on this printer. I am having an event that I was ask to do prints on the spot and looking for one relyeble printer that will do HQ prints fast. If you know of any that you can recomend I will much appreciate that. Thanks, Jorge in Tampa, Florida
This is relatively fast - but I am not sure volume is the right strategy for this printer. The ink consumption may be more efficient for high volume printers out there - which i never got a chance to test it. Sorry, not much of a help there. This will cost a lot more if your print jobs are volume driven with no intention of a lifetime preservation
@@jonlow I appreciate the information.
Hi. Does this print have the duplex print function ?
Hi, from their website I’m pretty sure it does not, this is aimed at printing photos and there aren’t many double sided photo papers. If you are printing documents you might be better off with something else from Canon that has a dedicated pigment black for printing text.
Have you had issues trying to find replacement ink? Haven’t bought this yet because it seems to have an ink shortage.
I have that same question
We have them in Malaysia : shopee.com.my/Canon-Original-Ink-Cartridges-CLI-65-cli-65-cli65-(BK-C-Y-M-PM-PC-GY-LGY-)For-Canon-PIXMA-PRO-200-i.87104226.9017991476?sp_atk=2d12e33e-5894-4d1b-b045-324f2dae0774
I have had some issues getting ink, but last year I found some just on Amazon in the US. I got two sets. I have only had to replace two inks so far and had the printer for a year
very helpful! thanks!
Canon pixma pro 200 can use eco solvent ink
Hi can you please help me? I want to be able to print 3.5x3.5 photos, can I use different photo paper on the canon pro 200? How do I load a 3.5x3.5? Please help
Hi Estela, you may load the 3.5 x 3.5 usually at the top tray. I use the app that came with Canon. The Professional Print & Layout. You may select custom size at Paper size option. Once you specify your custom size, the printer will print the photo normally
Love it.. where do you order your frames ? Plz share a link. Also what paper do you recommend
They are frames available in ikea :)
What is the ink you use to replace it? And what is compatible with it?
I've got the original INK from canon for the Canon Pixma Pro 200 ;)
@@jonlow so they have replacement ink ok that’s good, I saw that it was difficult to get tho…
Thank you for sharing. I am very new to photography. How do I find out generally what charges for printing photos and all?
Nice printer and review...
Thanks 👍
I have this printer. I absolutely hate it. It’s always something with this printer. You need to have just the right amount of paper in it or it says it’s out of paper. Too much or too little and you’re gonna get the out-of-paper notice. And it burns ink like it’s going out of style. The ink boxes are $105 a pack and the printer is constantly asking for them to be replaced. Also, if the printer says it’s low on ink, you better replace it or it’s gonna mess up your print job. If you’ve got a lot of free time and like playing with your printer more than you like to print, this is the printer for you.
I have a different experience from what you are going through. I only load paper from the top feed 1 by 1. That's maybe because I am printing on these A3 photo papers, and I load them as I need them. I get really great print results from the printer. Last week, I've printed a graduation portrait, and the print was gorgous. The bulk of time was use to prepare the photo in lightroom. As I hit print, it came out flawlessly - 1st try. So, dunno. I had a different experience from where you are coming from.
Hi..Where do u buy those paper??
In the US, B&H Photo has them at a great price.
Will this printer work with Capture OnePro?
No reason why not. Haven’t test it out with capture one
Great video, Jon! Very helpful and informative. I'm thinking about getting this printer and have a question. Do you use UV filtered glass on your framed prints? Approximately, how long will a print from the Pro 200 last without showing any fading if it is under UV glass and not in direct sunlight?
Hi Angela, I am not printing for archival purposes. I don't suppose my prints will last as long as it would be in UV glasses, acid paper, and pigment ink. I would reasonably anticipate that a dye ink print on these canon paper would last me a last time when I am hanging these indoor in my house ;). Sometimes, when I think about the way I use my prints - I don't need to add those as I don't foresee these will be printed to last few life time. Maybe I would regret it - I don't know ;)
No thanks, I'll keep my Canon Pro-100 which I do custom paper profiles plus the fact I can refill the cartridges and reset the the chip using Precision Inks for pennies on the dollar. Printer companies screw the consumer on high cost of inks and Precision Inks is a nice work around and saves me hundreds of dollars if not thousand of dollars. Cheers!!!
I got some and wants to sell it
What paper would u recommend
I’ve got a video for that : th-cam.com/video/1yY17cN3D6U/w-d-xo.html
Why did you buy a Pro-200 while you had a Pro-10 printer? It looks like the latter is better, it prints with pigment inks.
For color prints the PRO-200 is probably better. The interface and paper handling are newer / superior. I haven't used the PRO-10 but the PRO-200 is excellent and for color likely better than the PRO-10's replacement, the PRO-300. Overall for a new printer on the market, its hard to beat the PRO-200. If I was going bigger (17") I would get the Epson P900
@@nafnaf0 thank you for your reply!
Can this print on canvas?
I have not tried canvas. I shall get the canvas material and test it out
The worst decision in buying a printer last december 2023 was to buy this printer, not just becasue its imposible to print in a 8x5.5" format, but because the half of the time this printer doesnt print because... i can't find inks for it.
First the bk, then the pm, then the y, this printer has been more time off than printing. And the worst part its that the cartridges are EXPENSIVE, VERY EXPENSIVE.
Finally i bought a Epson L8050 ecotank and for the price of one Canon of 12.6 ml i can buy a bottle of 70 ml!!
One Canon cartridge last no more than 7 days compared with the Epson that last ONE MONTH!!
I'm not questoning the quality, I prefer the Canon BUT when no inks available for months and the incredibly high price, THANK YOU BUT NO THANK YOU!
Sorry that it didn't work out for you. ;( . These ink are available in my country via our popular ecommerce stores, Here is the link to one: shopee.com.my/world.republic/12721107866 , It was cheaper previously, now it's about RM30 more expensive prior.
Can it print A4 ?
Yes. It does. And any custom sizes smaller than a A3+
is it good for flyer/banners print also?
