This evening I printed 2 sheets of A4 with a solid area of light gray (about 2 ml's per sheet) to lower the level of the aftermarket chip for LGY and it does drop a bit like expected:
After that I used my chip resetter to try to reset the chip. I tried a few times and the light of the...
I am looking for that small square plastic chip holder. One of my cartridges did not had that chip holder, making it impossible to use that refillable cartridge. Very stupid, not sure someone is capable to make a 3D printed version of that small chip holder.
Today I received my set of aftermarket chips from a seller at aliexpress and I tried the LG cartridge and see if it works and when the level drops a bit I will try if this chip can be reset or not with the resetter.
The chip has a different design compared to the original chips:
the upper chip...
Actually I am really impressed by the latest Inktec Powerchrome K3: the gloss is even stronger on glossy papers compared to original Epson Ultrachrome Pro-10 inks, however there is a bit more bronzing on some type of paper compared to Epson Ultrachrome Pro-10: maybe I should try the option to...
The dual scan mode >ambient light: standard illuminants/CIe Illuminant: D50 > profile settings: everything at standard settings, except the neutralize gray: set to +50
.
The profile has been made with the double scan mode (M0, M1, M2 and OBC) method. I will send you the specific target I am using to you directly to your email.
What about real life prints: I did a test with a picture I previous printed using original Epson ink with a dedicated profile for this ink, but I use the same profile to print but now the printer loaded with the Inktec Powerchrome K3 to see how the Inktec ink performs with the same profile and...
Last week I finally received my Epson SC-P900 refillable cartridges from aliexpress.com. In the previous week I already received my bottles of Inktec Powerchrome from Ebay (printout24.de), but I had to wait until I received te cartridges.
I ordered extra LLK and VLM, because these colours are...
I would suggest the Epson ET-8550: it has straight paper path (8x10 and up). It is also very economical to print and does a great job with neutral black and white prints (gray ink included).
I have the EU-printer. I have already reset the original chips with the resetter for the P900 and now they are recognized as not Epson original ones; but the ink level has restored back to 100%. The waste ink chip has also been reset back to 100%: this chip is simpler and is immediately...
I am thinking to try some Epson SC-P900 aftermarket chips that can used as an alternative to original Epson chips. The only thing is that most items are specified to be one time chip.....
That is a bit confusing, because I had once bought refillable cartridges with one time chips for my Epson...
Very strange indeed: the most common problem is the internal reflecting points are tarnished giving you the error the Colormunki wheel is not in the right position. This forces you to open the device and clean those reflector points so the Colormunki wheel will pin point correctly when rotating...
Today my first resetter for the cartridge chip has arrived. Interestingly the resetter is USB-c driven. No battery included. Aliexpress seems to deliver very fast: 7-days delivery. Unfortunately the other resetter and refillables were sent back to the company due to some administrative problems...
I know that, but guess what: to harvest this ink you will need to install new cartridges that pushes that ink towards the print head, so the ink "invoice" will be delayed towards the new cartridges.
That is way better compared to my Epson SC-P900 primary initialisation process. I have read it is even worse with the P700: only 10% left in the cartridges. I don't understand: the P800 is similarly built, pressurized too, flushing also needed to prime the tubing system/print head, but I ended...
So that is about 16 ml loss per cartridge....The tubing system towards the print head should be about the same distance and some ml's needed to purge and clean the nozzles to properly prime the print head with the ink. The P800 needs to prime 9 tubes with each 16 ml, makes 9x16= 144 ml's. The...
