If i need to print on glossy paper; do i still use the normal ink cartridge or is there special one for printing pictures on glossy?

Yes and no there isn't any thing special you need. PS: This is one of the best printers I have had.

I have been using this ink with photo glossy paper, also for advertising materials. Glossy

No. The paper does not have a glossy side. You can tell the front from the back by the fold and your card program will tell you how to insert the paper for printing.

I've always use a inkjet printer, so I never had problems with ink running on the standard paper/photo paper.. It comes dry when it's done printing.

I am not 100% sure. I think you do it from the print screen on your computer (or device), not on the printer itself. There is usually a button called Properties on a print screen. That opens up a lot of detail about size and type of paper. Sorry I have never used glossy paper. Good luck.

it works fine with any paper suitable for ink jets. choose your paper based on your intended use... normal printer paper for standard print tasks, photo paper for picture printing, etc. I'd start with standard printer paper then buy specialty paper as needed.

It depends on how your printer processes the paper. On my HP 632C I load the paper glossy side down. To test your printer, take a piece of paper and mark a large "X" on one side. Put the paper in the printer and then print something on it. I can be just be a word or two. If you put the paper in your printer with the side marked with the "X" down, and the word printed on that side, then that would be the correct way to load the photo paper.

Yes you can use just the ink cartridge. I hope that tells you what you needed to know.

It is not glossy, but a full-color print will have a sheen (at least in my laser printer). I'm sorry I don't know about double-sided copies.

You can print them fine on regular paper, however printing to glossy photo paper doesn't work. I have never tried Matt photo paper.

an image drum is different from actual ink cartridges, its likely you need ink in addition to the image drum

I printed over 100 color 8X10 brochures yesterday without changing ink cartridges ...... are you printing ONLY color photos? I would go into your printing preferences menu and see how your printer is set. You can access that menu by hitting the print button and then preferences. Mine is set to text and the photos are amazing. You can always use a different setting when you need higher quality photos.

Yes. I am currently using an HP all-in-one printer/copier/scanner and in the printer properties it has an option for "other inkjet photo papers" papers as well as an "other glossy inkjet papers." Depending upon the type of photo image I am printing I select one or the other, insert the paper in the paper tray and adjust the paper guides to fit. I had the same concern when my Kodak printer fuzzed on me and was more than pleased to find out that it does work because where I am there is not a big selection on printers.

I used regular resolution, not photo of any type. It seems to work better. This is not glossy photo paper, so the ink adheres differently than it would on photo stock. You won't get that sort of ultra fine resolution. To be fair, I only printed text, but I tried higher resolutions and they actually were worse instead of better. Hope this helps!

The HP7520 needs a "special" black photo cartridge to print photos because using everyday ink will not be enough to print as many as 1 photo before drying up. Especially when printing 8.5 in x 11 or a few 4x6 on a single glossy paper before having to go out and replace the everyday ink.

If you use a clear or glossy style laminate the photo will remain glossy. Any other style will eliminate the glossy look. Satin or pearl laminate will dull the print.

The shinier side is the correct side. I also use the PRO-100 and have had excellent results with the paper. Your designation of the media type as Photo Paper Pro Luster is correct. Try printing with the quality set on "Standard" versus "High", that might help reduce the ink flow. Check the bottom of the ink carriage and look at the print head to ensure there is no buildup on it. It may help to put all your printer quality options on default versus custom to see if this solves the problem. Hope this helps. Also, as DRB stated, using Canon Inks takes the guess work out. Also, refilling the ink cartridge may be the source.
