    Steaking after usage

    I think there is a problem with the sealing cup or piming circuit. I thought to read through the thread but it is mucho confusing. However I have picked out a few salient points. 1. It starts with a new a New Pro-100 on OEM inks displaying some form of clogging. Should not be happening...points...

    Canon ip8720 purge cycle

    The Pigment Black in the table looks approximately what I tested, However the dye ink is an order of magnitude more at approximately 2 times or 0.6ml. This was confirmed on two printers a TS8220 and TS5020...

    Epson P600 refillable carts and ink for sale

    Attached are three pictures of the described condition. The first two is the R3000 when this situation called for work. The third picture is the P600 which is about two years younger than the R3000. You will observe that the P600 is on its way towards the buildup as shown in the first two...

    Epson P600 refillable carts and ink for sale

    I would put money on him not checking carefully the left side of the P600 as he was instructed to. At this point in time with the P600 AND R3000 there is likely to have a pool of pigment ink that builds on the left side interior of the printer. As this pool sits there and dries up slowly, it...

    Does Overriding the chips on Desktop printers cause excessive ink consumption? Real results

    Type 1. Has long since disappeared. Maybe one can find them on older machines for which there are resetters and as stated, on those machines, you'd be unwise to use an ARC where a resetter exists. Type 2. Behaves line an OEM chip. It only resets when it is declared as empty by the printer. It's...

    Does Overriding the chips on Desktop printers cause excessive ink consumption? Real results

    It has been claimed for a long time that overriding the chips on Canon desktop printers will cause the printer to consume as much as 10 times the ink it normally would use. Many accepted this claim to be valid and did not pay much attention to it because prior to this time, there were resetters...

    Refill without Chip resetter

    Pro-10 has a resetter. Why a comparison? This simply does not make sense. I said, if there is a resetter USE it. End of story there. Where there is no resetter, then it is a different matter and that is when all kinds of modeling AND tests must take place to see where the sensible solution is in...

    Refill without Chip resetter

    There are a lot of wrong information being dispensed. I know math is hard but it is sometimes necessary. I have tried to lead horses to the water but some won't drink. Some printers have maintenance boxes that are available at very reasonable cost. For example a Pro-1000 maintenance box costs...

    Starting with PRO-200

    "A more detailed teardown of the cartridges will doubtless appear in due course but at first glance there's no difference between the PFI-300 and the PGI-72 beyond the prism being missing. The CLI-65 is going to be the interesting one or my money. " Hmmm.. putting a prism on a diaphragm type...

    InkjetCarts. US... ? ?

    WTF. There was concern that it was a health issue so I enquired a potential common supplier to allay the fear. So I don't understand the comment stratman. I traded in a completely different space to his.

    I had enquired into what might have happened and my sources indicate it was not health related. So everyone can have a sigh of relief.

    Refilling Canon Pro-10s

    There are two areas you should investigate carefully. First is the flow aspect of the tanks. Last week on Jose Rodriguez podcast towards the end of my session I mentioned one of the " Thou shall nots". This pertains especially to Ebay tank purchases. I have over 40 Pro-10 tanks that are junk...

    The Epson XP15000 - Maybe the one to replace the Pro-100?

    Easiest is to purchase an OEM tank with a working chip! as Canon had planned. The other way is to install aftermarket one time chips. The cost of those will add up eventually. Better to purchase more Pro-10s. All said and done. Spend the time looking for ads for used machines. Don't let...

    The Epson XP15000 - Maybe the one to replace the Pro-100?

    There is more to come next year. Yeah pigment is already on the table but that will definitely require some custom ICCS. One step at a time. I have Pro-300, Pro-200 in front of the queue

    Pro 100 print head source?

    Jose has not printed 30,000 pages on his Pro-100. What he is stating is what a commercial user of several dozen Pro-100 experienced. Typically the waste ink pad runs out at around 30,000 pages. This is based on refilling at low and replacing a complete set at each lid opening. That if you care...

    Pro 100 print head source?

    Not so quick folks we are extending an assumption that the Pro-100 printhead is the same as the coming Pro-200 based on what transpired on the Pro-10 and Pro-300. If you inspect the currently written specs closely the minimum droplet size for the Pro-100 is 3pl. It is 4 pl for the Pro-200. The...

    Canon Pixma MG5750 cleaning cycle

    Be careful because maintenance cycles are also introduced if the printer encounters cycles where one channel/color is not being used and it must rewet these nozzles. If the printer works and fans these nozzles as the printhead is going back and forth and no ink is being ejected, guess what...

    The Epson XP15000 - Maybe the one to replace the Pro-100?

    We will be reusing the OEM tanks! The setup tanks to boot. and refilling those. Epson did not beat me this time. Think those Aliexpress compatibles physically reliably work on this machine?
