Nick Thanks for your detailed reply - just what I wanted and you've practically made my mind up for me. Can you elaborate on the fading issues when the prints are not mounted behind glass? I hate glossy paper but Canon's web site does not list mention any other media they make, (which I presume will make the best use of their own ink's longevity). Do you know if they make something similar to Epson's Heavyweight matt which I find great for mail shots. It's good to hear that the original heads have lasted around 500 prints so far because when I mentioned my Epson failing after around 1200 prints, Canon's own tech help desk advised me that as with all consumer products the S9000 heads weren't designed to handle large volume print runs either, but I suppose they would have to cover their tracks! Hey, are you the only guy using an S9000/i9100 out there! Would love to hear other people's comments, or are you trying to keep it a big secret!
