If I purchase this ink and the printer and continious feed system do I still need to purchase ICC profile software?

No. I have 3 sublimation ink printers by Epson and all have been plug and play. Very simple. Highly recommend. It saves tons of money and works great. I even use them in my large format printer with no issues or additional drivers. Just remember to read the instructions when you install. Very important.

Yes, according to all the sellers on the certain huge online auction site not-to-be-named. But, you have to keep in mind that the chip and printer will forever remember each other and the printer will continue to give you a pop up stating your ink is low, when in fact you just filled it. The ink level is a guesstimate and not an actual level indicator. You can buy off-brand cartridges and put the old chip on them, but they will show as empty. You have to force the driver to accept that you wish to keep using the "empty" tanks. It works, it's just annoying.

Yes. The print heads are "built-in" and you'll need to unwrap and install the ink.

Hi joe andrew here yes all that you should need a USB printer cable that you can get any where and you also need to install the printer program that came with your printer and that should be all you need to do.

Yes, it is necessary because each cartridge is electronically set. look at tab on cartridge you will see small metal connections which read info to the printer for it to work properly

Yep, works great! Just use the software that comes with the printer, and you'll be pleased with the result...

No problem with cartridge recognition. I only use the printer now for copying purposes because of the way it wastes ink, e.g., using incremental color content on every startup, and because of the cost of replacing the ink pad which gets saturated over time. I've loved the printer but hate the design, if that makes sense.

You still have to install the device software and that should find the printer during installation. After that printing to it should be easy.

According to the amazon website it does. But you check for yourself if you want too. Just go back to the ink page and scroll down a little and it ask you to put your printer model in.

Hi yes the new machine will come with everything but the printer cable you might need in some situations in setting it up. however the first set of ink is like 1/4 the fill of standard ink cartridges I do suggest you consider getting your refills right away. That being said the main reason I personally chose Brother is that it will accept generic filled ink cartridges without all this special bar code stuff other machines do to insure you only are using their brand. So go ahead and buy generic works great for me.

To my knowledge no. But you do have to remove the cover door over your ink cartridges. Thid is a great product.I love it snd it pays for itself right away. Oneink refill cost as much as the ciss unit and you get 10 times as much ink. Best investment I've made.

The printer has a built in densitometer, so creating profiles for a new paper type is just a matter of a few mouse-clicks and waiting 20 minutes or so. You can buy non-HP inks from several sources, and they work pretty well, but I do gallery-quality prints that sell for >$1000, so for me at least, skimping on ink would be foolish. (Note that, depending on how much printing you're doing, you may elect to buy smaller, 130ml ink cartridges rather than the 300 ml cartridges that are standard.)

There is a compatible system on Amazon. You need to search by the type of printer you own. You can't just take an system and throw it it. Also, there are issues with the systems. I bought one and one of the cartridges leaked in the box. I'm looking ot get refillable cartridges without the connecting reservoir. Less issues that way. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Doffice-products&field-keywords;=deskjet+1000+continuous+ink&rh;=n%3A1064954%2Ck%3Adeskjet+1000+continuous+ink Found this. Maybe it'll help. Do lots of research before you commit to buy. Read the reviews even though a lot may be biased. At least you will get a better idea of what it is and whether or not you really want to chance it on a reservoir system. There is a compatible system on Amazon.

A pity that Canon has not yet created a custom profile for you. The Lustre finish is really fine so I would try the "Lustre" or "Glossy" profile on heavier media to see which works best. Keep in mind that any time you change and ink tank or use another kind of paper the profile changes. I see more shifts in the PC/Cyan range on my i9000 Mk II. Do adjust your dry times. 36-48 hours is really better than 12-24.

you can use it in just about any inkjet printer, but the seller doesnt provide color profiles and couldnt tell me where to get them making my purchase nearly useless

Thanks. Printer arrived and I'm all set up; had an extra USB on hand.Seems like some printers don't include the ink now. Like everything, you're charged the same, if not more, and get less in the box.

I've never used the compatible inks. I know it voids your warranty, so if you have a new printer I wouldn't use them.
