The Canon PFI-1000CO Chroma Optimizer ink cartridge is designed for professional photographers and advanced amateurs using the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printer. It enhances print quality by ensuring uniform glossiness, expanding the color gamut, and deepening black tones by applying a clear protective layer over the color inks. A key caveat is that its page yield is measured in smaller photo prints, not A4 pages.

The Chroma Optimizer (clear ink) is applied over the color inks to provide a uniform gloss finish, reduce bronzing, expand the color gamut, and make black tones appear deeper and richer.
This cartridge, the PFI-1000CO, is exclusively compatible with the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printer.
The estimated page yield is up to 680 photos in 10x15cm size or 97 A2 prints, based on ISO/IEC 29103† standard. Note that this is not an A4 page yield.
Yes, this is an original Canon PFI-1000CO Chroma Optimizer ink cartridge, part of the LUCIA PRO ink range.
The Chroma Optimizer ink is a pigment-based ink.
No, the Chroma Optimizer is a specialized clear ink designed to be used in conjunction with the other color ink cartridges (like Photo Cyan, Photo Grey, Black, etc.) in the imagePROGRAF PRO-1000 printer.
It enhances black and white prints by ensuring a consistent gloss finish across the entire image, reducing the likelihood of bronzing (an unwanted color shift in dark areas) and deepening the tonal range for richer blacks.
Ensure the cartridge is correctly seated. Remove and re-insert it firmly. Check for any protective tape that may have been missed during installation. Clean the electrical contacts on both the cartridge and the printer with a dry, lint-free cloth.
Run a head cleaning cycle through the printer's maintenance menu. If the issue persists after several cleaning cycles, perform a nozzle check to identify any clogged nozzles. Ensure the Chroma Optimizer is not the only ink installed; it requires color inks to function.
Verify that the Chroma Optimizer cartridge is correctly installed and has sufficient ink. Ensure the correct paper type and profile are selected in the print driver. Perform a print head alignment.
