Oh ok. It's probably decaying organic matter. Are there swamps or anything around that area?
BTW I owe you a beer mate. My R2400 is now printing like it's brand new, with the CISS in it - flushed out the print nozzles again after last message, but with actual printer cleaning fluid - left it...
I just flushed a the nozzles (I call them ports, but whatever) on my Epson R2400 with warm water, because that's what some youtube "expert" said to use but I do have printer cleaning fluid, I will re-do it with that. Thanks for making me think about that - it could rust it with the water.
If I...
Hi bud, it's been a little while and some stuff changed, so I thought I'd key you in on some of them
My girlfriend said "don't buy one of those ink things!" and I could tell why, and my hunch was right.. she got me a CIS from Rihac for the R2400. It arrived today and in the instructions, rihac...
Great! I looked up Inktech.com.au and have bookmarked it. Have been busy lately, still need to check if the waste ink needs replacing.
Will get back to u about this. Thanks again.
OK this sounds like something I should get onto. Is it easy to check if the overflow is full?
I did notice the printout is showing a few vertical lines, I let it to some 'print head cleaning' (software initiated) and did a re-alignment.
(I can't work out this quote stuff, sorry. You mentioned...
Sure, here's a few sources that I can quickly find

It's not going to be documented on Epson's sites or anything because the average consumer doesn't need to know that.
Is the print head encrypted? If it is you may need to buy an unencrypted one - for myself, it would be expensive to buy an unencrypted print head - at least $1000US which is ludicrous! I hope mine lasts me many years and plan on treating it like a princess and buying a dust cover for it (this...
I voted no and I'm surprised people can't see that unless the manufacturer wants you to refill - eg: some of the Epson inkjets with tanks, its becoming very difficult to do so. ARC chips are on the way out, because even the 3rd party makers of them are getting greedy; its more profitable to sell...
Hi everyone!
I have just arranged to pick up another inkjet.. my dream printer! An Epson Stylus Photo R2400!
I've bought 2 inkjets in past 6 months.. Canon MG2965 - cheap and OK, can be refilled BUT it's very poor quality, wouldn't waste paper on it to do photos. I then bought an Epson...
Hi everyone!
I'm David, I'm a tinkerer who lives in Australia. I am pretty good with electronics but not an expert. I recently purchased an XP-900 Epson. It's a great printer, I am very happy with it's CD/DVD printing feature, and I never updated the firmware on it. I knew it would make life...
