'sFunny, I did about 3 years worth of printed vector work onto my i9100 and never ..well, rarely (it is a printer, after all) .. had any problems.
I take it you've experimented with the output settings?

yeah, i'm messing with the output settings. there is that switch under the hood for different paper weights (at least that's what i think it is... 8.5x11 image on one side, envelope on the other).
did you use that much when printing on heavier stock?
- Nairn0
yup, and if I remember correctly, i had to balance the lever just off the right-side lip to force it beyond its paramaters and accept heavier weighted stock.
it doesn't do ludicrously heavy stock, but i was always able to do much more than was stated in the manual (i quite often did borderless prints on bitty recycled A3 brown card - ie. not safe).
it did take me a bit to work out which output setting was best for whichever medium - the bad thing about the canon is the way it describes the settings - i found it best to ignore 'high resolution' or 'glossy' and just experiment myself.
