Hot: Buy PIXMA-PRO 100 Ink Set, Get 680 Sheets 13×19″ Free

Posted December 18, 2016 at 11:27 am EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 34 comments.

This ridiculously hot deal is back from the Canon Direct Store. When you buy the 8 CLI-42 (for PIXMA PRO-100) ink tanks individually, you get 20 “free gifts” of photo paper, totalling 680 sheets of 13×19″ (in semi-gloss, pro-lustre, and glossy plus II), and 20 sheets each of Photo Paper Pro Semi-gloss, Photo Paper Pro Platinum, and Photo Paper Pro Premium Matte, in 8.5×11″.

The individual ink tanks cost $16.99 each for a total of $135.92, not much more expensive than buying the combo kit for $124.99. The (inflated) retail value of all the free paper is $1427.80, which makes your sales receipt look downright silly.

This is the same deal as the previous free 13×19″ paper deal which sold out very quickly. Coupon code “SLEIGHRIDE” gets you flat-rate $10 expedited shipping to arrive before Christmas.

They also have a similar deal on PIXMA PRO-10 ink.

A Surprising Tip for Getting More Money for your PIXMA PRO-100

Posted December 17, 2016 at 8:31 pm EDT by CanonPriceWatch. 23 comments.

With all the great PIXMA PRO-100 bundles lately, many readers are asking how much you can expect to get from selling their PIXMA PRO-100. The answer (no surprise) is not much, if you’re trying to sell the entire printer. That’s because the heavy weight of the printer (50+ pounds) makes it very cost-prohibitive to ship, and your local market may not be large enough to sustain a steady sale of the printer.

Luckily, there are consumable components of the printer that represent most of the value of the printer. As a plus, they’re small and easy to ship, so you can take advantage of a larger market. The print head fetches about $70 when still sealed (eBay Completed Sales, Amazon Listings), and the full ink tanks fetch about $90-$100 (eBay Completed Sales). After shipping and seller fees, you can expect to net $120-$130 for these printer parts. As long as you’re willing to deal with the mail-in rebate and the time to list, sell, and ship your parts, printer bundle deals are some of the best ways to save on Canon gear.

UPDATE: Some readers have asked if the PIXMA PRO-100 comes with full ink cartridges or “starter” ink. It comes with full ink cartridges. This has been well-studied by weighing full and empty cartridges; the “with printer” cartridges are identical in weight (before and after) to retail cartridges.

Any other tips for fellow readers? Put them in the comments below!
