I recently took delivery of a Canon Pro 4000. I have printed many images on mat and "glossy" media with no need to change inks – wonderful! The image quality is amazing and I am pleased with the results. I have printed with Epson printers for more than 11 years and always avoided mat papers due to the ink change over inconvenience and expense.
As currently configured, the printer puts itself to sleep after 12 hours though there is a setting to have the printer stay on 24/7. I was wondering if anyone knows what the best practice is regarding printer settings and if the printer is capable of self-maintenance while not being used for a week or two (i.e., can the printer be set up to do a low level cleaning every 3 or 4 days when not in use)?
Thank you,
