Understood about the clips I use them all the time, but most of these don't seem to have them including the example.

Aren't Epson printheads more 'fussy' (fragile) overall?

You are referring to these; https://www.ebay.com/itm/123893552912?hash=item1cd8a19710:g:654AAOSwNlxda9jh I asked the seller this; How long have these been empty?? Don't the sponges dry out fast when empty...

The carts I have used were new, never filled, empty aftermarket carts, not ones that were filled with ink. Just like what you linked. Unless I missed something here, I'm confused about buying empty used Canon OEM carts. I don't know how long the sponges were empty or almost empty.

Or ARC carts that do read ink levels which I now understand most do not. Which I found out the hard way thru Ink Owl in spite of what their tech told me.. The specific carts I'm looking for are refillable PGI-5(BK) and CLI-8(C,M,Y,BK). I did find these...

As in you can't refill or reset Canon OEM carts. I never bought any. As I stated, I never had "auto" reset carts before. If I knew that I probably wouldn't of ordered them and looked elsewhere. I've dealt with Ink Owl before with no issues, but only for ink. BTW, I did on the offer.

Printer is new, the model is 15 years old. I have been treating it like gold. Understood about letting carts going dry, but that was due to the lack of indication to ink levels which wasn't my fault. I was just going to find another source for empty carts. I thought Canon OEM carts are only...

Details; Canon ip4300 printer (new purchased a few years ago, just placed in service to replace the same model with maxed out waste ink pads. Ink Owl auto resetable carts (no need for a chip resetter) PGI-5 & CLI-8) Carts are replacing older 3rd party (that needed a resetter) where the sponges...

A partially corrected order chronically (corrections needed & welcomed); 3e Compatibles: BJC-3000, BJC-6000, FAX C855, i550, i560, i850, i860, Multipass C755, Multipass F30, Multipass F50, Multipass F60, Multipass F80, Multipass MP700, Multipass MP730, iP3000, iP4000, iP4000R...

Are those AIO machines? Are you talking about the TS/TR 8320/8520?

I came across this list of printer carts and the models they use. It came from Inkjet411.com My question is; is this in chronological order of the cart series? It appears it is, but couple may be out of order (Canon 6 for example).

Knock on wood, but refilling I have been fairly successful with it Both with my old i560 and now with the 4300. It's the printheads where the problem is. I have a 2nd set of carts all reset & refilled I just swap out with the carts inside the machine as needed tiring not to run the carts dry. ;)

May be I should ask, of the recent models (current or 1 generation previous models), what models or series of models have resettable carts if any?

That's the idea, what's wrong with the item, especially when a pattern develops, not what's right which the manufacture goes out of his way to advertise. I never really considered the 4300 "premium". :idunno

That is one good reason I don't like Epson. Printheads. AFA air in the tubes, take a look over are the one & two star printer reviews at Amazon . ;)

You feel that little bit of ink flow would be enough??

My OP was my list but I could add a small size is important, depth mostly. AFA Canon, I thought about Epson, but I almost never print photos (which I understand Epson is well known for with their pigmented ink) and I'm concerned about the lack of a replaceable printhead which I understand Epson...

Obviously, but how about all the other models with mega tanks that don't have this needed feature?? I typed that before I found out about their "secret'.

Test pages from the printers Maintenance tab or something else?

Sounds as you are talking about Win 3.1 :rolleyes: I looked at canons site, they only list Server & W7, not XP, but that realy doesn't' matter.
