Seems too good to be true. However, I did order and the shipment just arrived. (orders over $100 have free shipping)

Some catch?

I ended up making several separate orders of just over $100 each (to get free shipping), and all orders have shown up fine. Whew.

FWIW: Note that the Canon Pixma 9000-2 requires a relatively new print-driver (2013-April-09) to provide Media-Types for Luster, Semi-Gloss, and perhaps others.
Canon U.S.A. : Consumer & Home Office : PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II (http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/printers_multifunction/professional_photo_inkjet_printers/pixma_pro9000_mark_ii#DriversAndSoftware)

The need for an updated print-driver may also apply to other prosumer/advanced printers like the 9500-2, Pro-1, Pro-10, Pro-100, etc.  I didn't check on those.
