Keith, No reviews on PhotoPXL site, or Facebook. Which is why I asked.

Post by: Kwraber on July 01, 2024, 08:06:14 am: I have run several printing workshops in the last two years. We have a huge space and five printers to work with: two Canon and three Epson printers. Two foremost experts, Jeff Schewe and John Pannazzo of Imageprint, assisted me. We start off at my home for a reception on Friday night. Here, I have three printers and show you how a home setup works. Then, on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, we printed, going through the steps to make a great print; I don't know anyone who has been disappointed. You will go home with a stack of prints from 8x10 to 40x50 inches and a new addiction to making prints.

You don't have a photograph until you can hold it in your hands. Contact me if you have questions. Thanks.

I use it with my 4000. I'm mostly just joking. I had been using IP on my Epson and upgraded to support my Canon as soon as they released support. Initial release had some critical issues that were resolved after 1 free and I think 1 paid upgrade. At this point things mostly work although narrow gamut toning never got as good as it was on Epson and there's still some little annoyances with the version I have (sheet feed switches to roll feed any time I change color profiles and if I forget to fix it I can misprint). But nothing worth paying for another upgrade to fix.
