    A Printer for Invitations

    I used to print quite a bit but now that I've sold my business not so much. I do still print Christmas cards so when my old Canon printer bit the dust I searched for a new Canon that had an optional rear feed. That afforded me an almost straight paper path for printing cards. I settled on a...

    Used Pro 100's nowhere to be found

    Sitting at home in quarantine, bored to tears, thought I'd look on Craigslist and see if anyone had a Pro 100 for sale. Not that I want one (already have one) but was just curious. Several years ago everyone was buying them just to get the rebate or to get the ink or head. I'm in the Tampa...

    Refilling cli281and pgi280 carts

    Thanks websnail for the info. About what I expected. I contacted Mike of Precision Colors Ink and he said that he will be offering ink for this printer soon (including Photo Blue). So until then I'll just have to use the Canon ink. Once the printer is used enough to not know any warranty...

    Refilling cli281and pgi280 carts

    I'm aware that pgi280 and cli281 can be refilled. However, the instructions I've seen say that the printers ink counter must be disabled which will void the warranty. Are there any ARC available on the market for these cartridges. Or, should I just bite the bullet and disable the ink counter?

    Canon Megatank printers

    B&H has the Maxify on sale for $149 again BUT it's a pigment printer and I like Dye ink. I looked around and decided on a TS8220 for only $69 from B&H. One of the reasons I chose it was because it has a rear feed that will be beneficial for printing Xmas cards. What do you think of my choice?

    MG7120 Head Alignment problem

    Pigment black text prints out of alignment. Pictures/graphics print excellently. I've done the auto print head alignment and then the manual head alignment to no avail. Any suggestions as to what might be the problem or is it time to look for a new printer? The problem is particularly bad...

    Abacus Inks???

    Since selling my business I hardly print anything anymore. So it was with disappointment that I discovered a couple clogged nozzles on my MG7120 yesterday. I have been using Precision Colors ink and auto reset carts with it since new. I found out that several of the ARC's would not reset...

    New Canon Pro-100 question

    Just make sure that the cleaned cartridge you use is not a Yellow one. It has been reported that no matter how well a yellow cart has been cleaned or flushed, there may still be microscopic bits of yellow ink in the cart. If this is true and new non OEM ink is introduced into the cart it may...

    Can a non-OEM cartridge void my printer's warranty?

    In the USA we are protected by the Magnason Moss Warranty Act. You can google it to see it full length. The gist of it is if a OEM part or consumable is required to keep the warranty in effect, then the manufacturer is required to provide such part of consumable "free" of charge to the...
