Purchase, per your recommendation, back in May 2019. Don't regret it. Great printer. Have used for several applications (mainly screen printing). Thank you.

@garybegner2369 6 лет назад

Thanks for this!!! I blew the print head out on my epson during peak season and couldn't find a replacement Epson in town. Found this Canon and totally love the quality. Life saver.... Thanks

@mijavera 6 лет назад

Thanks so much! I was about to return my Fixxon order but I so happened to already have this same canon printer for my photo printing. Soooooo happy I found your video!

@PRIDECONDITIONING 5 лет назад

this guy has single handedly help me transform my life with this one video.i really appreciate u my man. I had spent about 400 on trash that were not equips for the job. also he helped me get the setting right for a dark print and the right film. To this day some 3 yrs later I return for references

@StartScreenPrintingNowTV 9 месяцев назад

Dude this is the best comment I have ever gotten. I really appreciate you and I am glad I could help!

@JohnEastmanExAttyAtLaw 4 месяца назад

send the man his cut then, LOL. 10 percent.

@SprockX2 5 лет назад

I can confirm that running the print through twice will give you very dense blacks. As long as you take your time the registration on the second print will be spot on. You will have to let it sit for about 5 minutes after the second pass to let the ink dry completely. Hope this helps.

@cloyjoseph8707 6 месяцев назад

How do you register your first print to the opportunity for it to be printed twice in the same film. If that what you meant?

@randlest-shirtcollc8523 3 года назад

Thank you soooo much for your willingness to teach people about screen printing! You're an Excellent Teacher! I appreciate how you provide reason for why the details on how to screen print! May God continue to bless you 🙏🏽❤️

@MrTumorHumor 6 лет назад

even if you wanted to produce HUGE prints. Like poster sized prints. You can simply block your design out into multiple 13x19 images in photoshop. Print them out on this printer and use clear scotch tape to bring them together for exposure. It's more work but it's actually kind of fun. It's great for producing bigger prints.

@tristanbryann8252 5 лет назад

are the gaps really that worryful? and so a slight mis-match putting the together is unacceptable right?

@ianbowie8121 3 года назад

How do you seperate your image into multiples ?

@leostewart2788 7 лет назад

Hey I went out and bought this printer and i must say its been one of the best buys for my garage printing. I need to step up my exposure unit game now.

Do you mind sharing where you purchased your ink and films from?

@marilynjernigan4673 11 месяцев назад

I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ru-vid.comUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.

@aylapena1205 5 лет назад

Hi Casey, thanks for this video! I have the same printer and am wanting to do my own film transparencies for making letterpress plates. I've tried the steps you posted for the black, but it's still not as opaque as the black on your print here. I've tried changing the CMYK and diff. paper settings, but it still looks hazy on the back side. Any other tips you may have? Thank you!

@mkahan9418 6 лет назад

This printer really works. I had a hard time getting it to print (kept feeding film right through the printer). I found out that using it wirelessly was the problem. Next I had to reinstall the drivers a couple times because of this and the fact I wasn't getting the controls (paper settings etc) featured in the video. Don't give up, this is a great match. I did run into detail issues when exposing, but I was using diffusion dither and it just wasn't the best for tiny detail - also couldn't wash out a .5 pt stroke. AMAZING for the money.

@bagboy8185 6 лет назад

what settings on your PC/PHOTOSHOP did you have to change

@kristmadsen 2 года назад

Yeah the wireless on it is pretty wonky. Just set it to plain paper high quality. We are on our 3rd one so they break but I couldn't find anything better. Any one recommend a 13x19 laser printer ?

@jlavaty 5 лет назад

this setup worked really well for me. i grabbed the iP8720 and use the Arthur inks. If you create the PDFS in illustrator/photoshop and do a lot of film printing, i print in CMYK mode instead of grayscale. You can use the CMYK value 40, 30, 30, 100 and will give you a really deep black. Printing a lot of films in grayscale will drain the gray cartridges really fast, and kind of hard to get just Gray cartridges ink bulk for cheap.

@davidasog7244 Год назад

How has the IP8720 worked out for you? I'm thinking about grabbing it over the IX6820

@estebanalcozer9773 Год назад

@@davidasog7244 Late response, but im very happy with the IP8720. no problems with film output on 13x19" films with multiple layers. Simple halftones were fine too. Havent dabbled into any cmyk or process printing with it tho.

@northernfreelance5788 4 года назад

Love the price and size it prints.would this be a good choice for transfers as well. I dont screen print. I am stuck between pigment or dye based, not familar with which would be best for my work. I design custom decals and full frame prints so it would have to be durable. Also im assuming it would print wonderful heat transfers for my shirsts? sorry about all the questions mate. cheers

@mikesebooks 4 года назад

That Arthur Imaging ink is awesome.... I use that same 250 size for my Canon MX922, which is partially why I will get the IX6820 instead of the Epson. Of course, besides the price.

@fioreartstudio 4 года назад

Hi! Thx for this video! I have a strange problem with this model when I print in mode color on matte paper (watercolor, grain fine or medium), the problem born only the blue color and derivatives of blue, (light blue, blue, dark blue, reflex blue) but also with the red and derivatives (violet, dark violet, bordeaux, purple, light brown and dark) it is grainy, with random white dots effect, as if printing at low resolution (but only those colors). Have you encountered this problem?
