Congrats on the printer! I have a Pro-100 that I got as part of a promotion when I upgraded my camera recently. I've printed several 13x19 prints (deal came with 50 sheets of semi gloss paper) and am amazed at the quality. Way better than the generic prints from wally world, etc.

I found some 1/2 inch thick black foam board at Hobby Lobby and have been mounting the prints on it with some spray adhesive. I print them borderless and trim the foam board flush with the edge. makes a nice contemporary mounting. Guess I'll get into making frames at some point.

So far the only down side is the ink is EXPENSIVE. Looking into options to do refills. I do a lot of night stuff and the gray and black are almost gone.

i suppose the Pro-10 is better, but this one does a great job.
