The brown truck delivered our Pro-1 printer last night. The printer is an A3 printer that will handle paper up to 13x19. I downloaded the Mavericks driver from canon along with the latest firmware update. After setup I printed a test 11x14 image on Luster 13x19 paper. Great quality print for out of the box with no tweaking.
The printer lists for $999. If you get a box of paper with it, you can get a $200 rebate from Canon. That brings the cost to$799. I purchased mine on EBay as a new unused unit for $575 including shipping. The rebate had already been claimed but the unit was never used. From another EBay seller I got boxes of Pro-1 ink (12 cartridges) for $100 less than B&H or Adorama.
So don't let high list prices keep you from getting a high quality printer. Do a little creative shopping instead.
