media settings for Canon i9900

2006-08-27 by dffinnert

Hello,

I just got a new Canon i9900 printer and am trying to make profiles
for Ilford Classic Gloss and Pearl paper. When I try to select the
suggested "high gloss photo film" media type, I find it is not in the
list for the i9900, unlike my old Canon s9000.

Also, I am having some troubles with moderate mottling in medium-dark
blues and grays, no matter what media type I choose (I had this same
problem with the S9000 and never resolved it). I've set print quality
to 1 (fine/slow), and turned on quiet mode in the driver, which is
supposed to slow down the print speed. 

Am I just out of luck using Ilford swellable polymer paper with BCI-6
inks? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated (including
alternate swellable papers).
