I have been getting these annoying lines when printing to plain paper, the problems goes away when I use high quality setting, the strange part is I have always used the Standard setting when printing photo paper and plain paper, and this problem is recent, I swapped the printhead to another...

I totally agree with you that CLI-8 does much better with HC, I have tested the ink with IP4500, IP4300, and the IP4200, but the green or blue cast is also present with Canon ink, it was a punch in the eye with the first print and a new IP4600. I know a profile will correct the problem, but I...

Ive been using HC inks, everything looked fine on a Canon IP4500, then I purchased the IP4600, the IP4700, and the MP620 I perceived the newer printers had a green cast even with OEM ink and with my refills using HC ink. I agree with you the prints are great, but the color shift is a fact I...

I have a similar story,maybe my carts were refilled up to 5 times a month, 2 1/2 years using HC inks and they are acceptable, just a little weeks ago had them replaced by empty virgins. I read a post that stated that the carts being punctured 100 times didnt seem to affect the sponge and the...

What I did to fix the same was filling a syringe (with its needle) with hot water and directing the jet to the nozzles of the printhead and the mesh in the ink inlet, filled the syringe twice, dried the head well taking care of electronics being dry, and it was perfect nozzle check for the PGI-5.

The problem is with the cartridge, just get a new one, or an empty virgin and use the german durstich method if you use top filling may sure the cart is perfectly sealed otherwise you will get this to happen.

There is one new on Ebay by this time at 120 and free shipping.

This is after I did deep cleaning last night, and used another cartridgle, then let the printer in idle state for 15 hours to see if the problem is repeated, printed a ligth cyan solid and it is perfect as the one I pirnted last night, I will keep you informed. I wish it was the cartridge with...

Well from last night this test is at 7:00pm, I removed the pirnthead it looked clean with no visible ink in the cyan nozzles something I noticed is the magenta and Cyan rubber pads had more ink than the other carts on them, the printer was turned off al 11:00 pm, then turned on in the morning...

Thanks for your time.

1.I always do the same, I read in a review that if its sits idle it consumes 0.8 watts thats next to nothing, plus you have it printing right away when you need to. 2.Just drilled a hole over the reservoir, let water run until the sponge was plain white, let the carts dry several days under...

I was thinking I never turn my printer off, when you turn your printer off for a while when you turn it on it makes a slight cleaning, and the purge blade cleans the head, well I also print in plain paper regularly in color so all colors are used, and these prints should clean the nozzles in...

You have some sense I have the same problem always is the same you print excellent from a deep cleaning, then the next prints hours or days later the problem is back, I have bought several printheads and is the same your theory of the leak in the cart is interesting I always use the german...
