Title: increase amount of ink printed on canon 8300?
Post by: msongs on July 19, 2015, 08:32:19 pm

I am printing on roll fabric to make pillows and the fabric people say increase ink saturation to get more ink on the fabric. they do not mean adjusting saturating of the image, just put more ink on the fabric. I see there is a saturation adjustment in the driver but not clear if that is for color or ink load. what's the way to do that?

Where do you get roll fabric for cushions?

In the iPF5100, at least, there are five "special" variable ink-loading media types for both BK and MBK papers: Special #1-5 for BK; 6-10 for MBK. #'s 5&10 the max. loading levels respectively. I'm sure the 8300 has the same - and maybe more levels.

Ah that explains the special 1-5 I have on the ipf5000!
