This was the only version I tried. It was also for the pro-100 not the pro-100S, not sure if that makes a difference

Sorry I haven't been checking this. I know this is 2 years old, but my claims were definitely not dubious. I'm actually back at this post because I was trying to figure out what the tool was called, my hard drive crashed in late 2020 and I lost it. Now another one of my printers is giving me the...

The listing says it works on the pro-10 and pro-1. Also, I think it's the constant automatic purging and cleaning cycles these printers do that really soaks them. Especially when printing a lot, since I'm refilling, I change them before they get low, but that leads to several cleaning cycles. I...

Hey PeterBJ, just wanted to say thanks for the link. A second printer started showing the message last month and the first one finally stopped working today, it refused to do anything and to contact a service center. I went ahead and purchased the software on ebay, I received the link and...

Is this confirmed? on the listing it lists the pro-1, pro-100 and pro-10 as compatible. I don't mind taking one for the team, worst case I can just request a refund, no?

Mistreatment? I suppose the garbage bin would have been a better solution? Clearly these are last ditch efforts before it goes in a landfill. At this point, after all conventional methods have been exhausted with zero change for 2 weeks, it shouldn't matter if I wanted to deep fry it, dump it in...

Update: 1 of the 2 print heads is at about 95% now, good enough to print in high quality mode with no issues. I'm going to continue to soak it after a few print jobs. The other one has shown almost no improvement. I've hit it with everything (Windex, Simple Green, Boiling Water, Ammonia...

I doubt that I've killed it. I've taken so many of these apart over the years now and they all still "worked", although still with the same clog as before. As long as you're careful and don't manhandle the thing, you should be ok. But I never thought to focus on the ports in the plastic body...

Ok, so after about a week now, I'm seeing very little improvement, which is the longest it has ever taken me. I decided to take one of the heads apart, the one that has shown 0 improvement. I see now that the clog is in the body and not the ceramic plate. Both the Cyan and Black have very poor...

Well I've finally got the warning on one of mine. It says the pads are almost full and to contact the service center. I've had it since 2014 and the nozzle check reports it at a little over 30,000 pages. The large majority being borderless 4x6 and 5x7's. I have an even older one from 2013 which...

I didn't even realize they had so many different products. I use the green one, that says all purpose cleaner. I started using it because a few years back I ordered some printhead cleaning solution and noticed that it was green and smelled exactly like Simple Green, but came in a tiny bottle...

As long as the inks currently installed are not very low, I wouldn't worry too much about it, I don't think it's worth installing a brand new set of OEM cartridges. I would take more precaution if I was refilling on my own, not because of the inks, rather there are more chances for user error in...

Yeah that's not much of a difference at all. My results on the pro-100 were on borderless 4x6 and 5x7, standard quality. It consistently takes twice as long with with detection disabled. I would send the print job to all printers and the culprit was always 50% behind. I must have uninstalled the...

Might sound crazy, but on my Pro-100's I've been using "Simple Green" diluted 50% with distilled water for years now. Nuke a small amount for 30 seconds, wait a minute, fold a small piece of paper towel and just let it sit for 10-30 minutes. It has worked for me a ton of times. I also have a...

I had the same problem a few weeks ago, go to "custom settings" and see if "detect paper width" is disabled. For me, if it's disabled, it prints at half the speed as it usually does.

I appreciate the response. I do tend to look at the print heads as a consumable product aside from the ink. Sort of like the imaging drum on a laser printer. I have a zip bag with about 10 print heads that no longer work, either clogged or the printer just doesn't read them and throws a 1405...

I just began having another problem today on two of my heads. Both the Cyan and Black are not printing out the nozzle check. What's strange is that it happened within a day of each other and the black has never given me trouble. I did my usual soak that seems to work most of the time, but they...

I cycle between 12 of them and they all look great. I have noticed that on all the LGY and PC carts, I have to flush out after about 4-6 months. The sponges begin to look dry, all the other colors look nice and saturated. I don't run them til they're empty either. Whats the recommended way to...

I run 4 of these printers and noticed one of them was lagging behind the others. Taking twice as long to finish the same job. The drivers, profiles, settings etc.. were all the same. I wracked my brain for for several days trying to figure it out and then it started happening to one of the...

I wouldn't say I'm unhappy with PC as I've been using them for many years now and probably printed around 100,000 prints with those inks, but there definitely have been some hiccups along the way. Who are some other good ink suppliers for the pro-100? Back in 2013 I think only Precision Colors...
