imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 compatibility with Epson paper and macOS High Sierra

SuBre — Tue, 04 Nov 2025 16:22:22 GMT

My Epson 3880 seems like it might be dead. I am thinking of buying the Canon ProGraf 1100 to replace it because the Epson P900 has so many terrible reviews. I was told by a Canon support person that I WILL be able to use the 17x22" Epson Hot Press Bright paper that I still have a lot of. I was relieved to hear that, but I'm wondering if it will be difficult to use, as I'm not much of a techie and I don't even know what a "profile" is?
Also I have been printing from InDesign CS6 because I have not wanted to buy the Adobe subscription. The only way for me to use CS6 on my MacBook Pro is to suspend updating the system software. So I am successfully using High Sierra 10.13.1. ( I have a different computer for internet use) I'm wondering if I will be able to continue working in this way if I switch to the Canon 1100?
I appreciate any help anyone can give with respect to this decision.

Hi SuBre,

The imagePROGRAF PRO-1100 is not compatible with macOS v10.13 (High Sierra).

The printer is supported with macOS v11.7.10 (Big Sur) up to the latest version, macOS 26 (Tahoe).

Thanks. Can you answer the first part about the Epson Hot Press Bright paper?
