My new toy: canon i960 photo printer
ok the quality is friggin amazing, however that bitch autocrops if i use the canon software i presume it does that to preserve the 4x6 ratio, any idea on how to disable that, also should i shoot my digital pics at the 3:2 option?

i just bought this also. i love using it with the canon paper that came with it but have used kodak thinner paper and don't like that nearly as much.
i hate the cropping. i had that last night. left a effing white line on the side of the pics and i couldn't crop it correctly in the crop mode. dunno. i'll just make sure my pics are the correct size before i print them i guess.

This is user error  You are intuitively correct about needing to shoot in 3:2 to get the 4x6 or whatever photo printing ratio to work with the no cropping.

Damn, i know the kodak paper that i got from staples during black friday doesn't even come close to the canon paper supplied. But what are you gonna do, i mean it was like 2 bucks a pack and i bought 5 of them  and the printer only cost me $100 from staples, so it was just a must have since my epson stylus 600 crapped out on me. and this 3:2 propaganda, i do not like! Did you play around with the vivid photo option? what do you think? |
