- Canon i950 Profile Question?
- Posted by Dave Balcom on August 22nd, 2003
When I try and use any profiles under the Canon i950 printer
preferences, none of the actual settings change in the driver.
Specifically, if I use a profile that sets the orientation to
landscape and media type to glossy photo paper, the photo prints in
the default portrait mode and on plain paper (unless I manually change
each setting first). I confirmed it actually prints that way on a 4 x
6 sheet of paper.
It is on a Windows XP Pro system.
Any ideas why it does this?

That is what I am talking about: in printing preferences/profiles and
not a specific program.
When I use those profiles, it doesn't change anything unless I do it
manually. I can change the defaults to start-up how I like but I don't
print just photos and would like a one click means of switching from
say landscape 4x6 glossy photo paper to portrait 8x10 plain paper for
normal printing...

I am now! Thanks for the tip, I totally missed that one....

Double-clicking on the profile works, also.
