Hello, Just a Warning regarding anyone thinking to try to sell on Allegro. While the customer part of their website is getting better with more products listed in English every day. The seller part is fraudulent to say the least. I tried listing some of my computer stuff in 2023, and only...

I would like it to have LAN port, but it doesn't. However it works with Klipper directly. The heated chamber can be easy MOD, plenty of them for bambulab with part lists etc... and buying thermocouple with temperature control is also easy on aliexpress. Myself still waiting for any problems to...

Calibrite ccStudio does not work with i1pro spectrophotometer or any other instrument other then their i1Display clones so not usable for me. basICColor Software - bankrupt, sold etc. Germans were charging so much that the truth is everyone pirated their software that's why they got bust IMHO...

Hello, I tested some supposedly 21w thermals pads of brand name UPSIREN and they were quite good. Meaning that I used them on 65W and 125W CPU and compared to normal thermal paste like Thermal Grizly Aeronaut or Cooler Master mastergel. The temperature difference was 1 degree C Recently I...

Brother was taken over by greed for money, same as Bambulab. Should avoid them as Brother Printheads are harder to clean (has membrane that gets always damaged if fluched using syringe method) undamaged then any epson.

Color management is like 3D printing, more complicated then buying a device and clicking some buttons, unfortunately this is the truth.

I think you need to use this on the pressure roller, on top of it, the surface must not be too much damaged like falling apart etc. It would sure work on the roller that is on the opposite side where the ink goes. But it may work on the roller that contacts the toner too. Never tried it. But if...

Quality ICC profiles if key for easy printing getting what you see on your monitor, but your monitor must be profiled too, and preferably certified to know it does not lie. Else it's possible to getting into rabbit hole of "I profile it so it shows correct colors" when if fact is can't even show...

You tried to order replacement from Aliexpress?

Strange that Mexico customs can dismantle printer and allow it to be imported without ink cartridges????? As this is Ecotank printer you can use any compatible EPSON or third party ink with ICC profile to fix the colors. As an illustrator you certainly care for colors for your prints so ICC...

Good job for everyone that fixed the problem by trimming the cable, but most times the missing connections on the ribbon cable are because of short circuit, they simply disintegrate, so that is why they are missing. Fuse is burned as consequence. So you have to check / replace main board fuse...

You need to get service manual, that helps. Need to get a non china print head that would really work OK. Also consider resetting the absorber using epson adj reset or wicreset programs. Make sure you do not damage cables that connect to print head while connecting them back.

Recent new gen Brother printers with carts LC422 have single use chips, cart no refillable. Serial numbers of carts are permanently kept in memory of the Brother printer. Do not buy any printer that uses these carts. Look for previous gen Brother printer.

If the ink can be pulled to dampers with syringe then it is print head problem, otherwise ink supply problem. If you could test this on another computer this would tell if it's software problem.

3D printer allow you to design a 3D design to test it first "cheap" then order properly made part from metal from real manufacturer.
