Q: 6. As a very rough approximation, how many full color 8x10 pages could be printed with one ink set?

A: This printer hasn't been available yet nor is the ink. The ink tanks have 14.4 ml in each tank which is .4 of a mil more than the ink of its predecessor the Canon Pro 10 14 ml tanks. It all depends on the colors & density of each print, for example: you might use 2 magentas b4 you finish 1 cyan & some prints have lighter backgrounds. Even Canon can't give you an approximate answer & only experience will tell. The print quality of these printers are 'out of this world' so even if prints are a bit pricey it pays off by far.

Q: 7. Is there any problem shipping this in freezing outdoor winter temperatures, where it might be left outside for hours before getting home to take it indoors. I am talking about temperatures in the 10-30 degree F range?

A: I've had some left outside in both hot and cold weather. I would NEVER install while the cartridge is icy cold. Wait until it slowly warms up to room temperature (wait a day). Give it a little extra agitation (shake it so you are sure it's mixed - which you should do anyway as part of Canon's recommendation).

Q: 8. What is the shelf life of an unopened set of ink and also when in use?

A: If properly sealed, the ink should easily last for more than a year when stored appropriately. As for opened ink, the cartridges should be installed, and the Canon large format printer should be left on. That way the Canon large format printer will perform an electronic nozzle check periodically to maintain the cartridge. It uses only a small amount of ink to do that, and that process does keep the ink fresh and usable indefinitely. (Please note that this comment does not necessarily apply to non Canon or non large format printers.)

Q: 9. Are all 10 inks archival? If not, under favorable conditions, how long are they designed to last?

A: The inks in the Canon PFI-300 Ten Color Ink Tank Pack are all pigment based archival inks. The prints can last between 100 and 300 years depending on the type of paper and storage conditions.

Q: 10. Can I mix different size cartridges? Especially 700ml and smaller 110ml cartridges? I use a lot of black ink and much less of the colored inks.

A: Yes. As the smaller tanks ran out I added the larger ones. I still have one small left. There doesn't seem to be any issue with the different sizes. in
