Epson 24 x 30 sheets on my Canon IPF Pro 2000 Printer?

[uintaangler]

I want to make some prints on my Canon IPF Pro 2000 using large sheets of a Baryta/Fiber style paper
The only thing larger than 17 x 22 I could find is Epson Exhibition Fiber 24 x 30
Has anybody tried this combo?

• Any problems using the large sheets on the Canon 2000?
• How does the quality of the printed image on the Exhibition Fiber compare with Canson Baryta?
• What is a good online ICC profile to use for the Exhibition Fiber on the Canon 2000?

Thanks.

There isn't many of that type of paper available in larger than 17x22 besides Epson Fiber and our Simply Elegant Gold Fiber (24"x36" 50 sheets); not aware of other manufactures though with possible options.
As long as the paper isn't too thick to bend when fed in the Pro-2000, it should be ok.  There will most likely be some difference between Epson Fiber and Canson Baryta (different brands of course), but depends on the settings used since different settings will provide a different output.  Fiber and Baryta are pretty close on finish and should use the same setting.

Since there isn't a profile available from Epson (on their paper) for a Canon printer, you may want to use a luster setting.  Try a heavy weight media type for the paper thickness, but luster profile should work since it's not too glossy.

I find large sheet fed paper not greatly convenient on our Pro 4000. If you permit the obvious and predictable question, why not print from roll media?

I have a roll of Matte paper loaded and a few images I would like to print that would look better on a luster type paper, thus my interested in large cut sheets

In other words this is a rare enough event that buy a roll of this PK paper doesn't make sense?
