The difference though small is most apparent on the trees and grass. Will try to upload the ooc jpg somewhere because it is large for here

Actually here ( http://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/which-refillable-cartridges-for-epson.4942/ ) mikling mentions the two hole design and i believe he is right because the ink hole plug does indeed seem to plug the outer and inner hole. I believe the cyan cartridge is defective...it somehow...
Just noticed that wicreset gives me a print head id error....although i suspect this is more a wicreset programming error and not an actual head id error.
"Print head id is broken. Register with index 0 is out of range"
Looks like wicreset is expecting a smaller/different format number
First of all lets get rid of some variables.....
1. Do you get ink blobs only when printing on CD/DVD or do you get them on paper as well?
2. The ink blobs are all of the same color?
3. If yes to 2 did you install this cartridge recently and is it EPSON or 3rd party?
I see that on the thread you mentioned there is a reference that the plug has to cover two holes otherwise ink is dribbling...so will have to try again tommorow and report....
Thnx for the pointer though...
I need your collective wisdom once more....
I finnaly received my brand new 1500w a couple of days ago
I immediatelly removed the side panel and rerouted the waste ink tube to an external bottle.
Filled up the refillable cartridges to about 80% taking care not to create air bubbles. Put them in...
I would appreciate it immensely if someone that has this printer and manages to create/get an icc profile for epson papers and l800 inks if they could pm me....
I used a single wet wipe. From the menu selected the nozzle check and pressed the wipe on the rollers as they turned. When the paper empty indicator came on pressed ok and kept wiping for 5minutes...
Bad news....I was hoping that the difference between the colormunki versions was in the accompanying software and that the hardware (spectrometer) was the same.
Edit: The cleaning and moistening with alcohol trick seems to have worked... :)
Unfortunately no errors at all. Since this printer still works with normal A4 I will just give it back to my dad...I just wanted to check the L800 ink performance and how refillable carts worked, before i commited to the 1500w.
Thank you for the (as usual) detailed explanation. The feeding problem is worse with more papers. The problem is not new...I have given the printer to my dad and had forgotten about it. It is less pronounced with A4 80gr papers but it is not completely eradicated. Of course A4 photo paper is...
Hi,
just wanted to post an update on my experience using the L800 inks (CMYK) to the RX520 without any custom profile. Paper used was EPSON Premium Photo Paper Glossy.
Unfortunately EPSON photo print 2.70 has dropped support for my printer and so I am unable to use the photoenhance profiles...
After your and Lukasz's recommendation to clean the timing strip, the problem is now gone...Indeed the timing strip had little specs of dirt/ink at exactly the same spot these lines were occuring. The thread can be marked as solved in order to help future readers as well....
Here is the video of...
Thank you for your responses...by priming i Mean the process (that you said is a cleaning cycle) that takes place when changing ink...
Is it allowed to suggest good refillable cartridges (in Europe preferably to keep shipping costs reasonable)?
