IMHO, your explanation has a lot of sense, Grandad35. But thinking that my printhead will go to the trash, I can use another cleaning method that the used with my print head. Thank you.

Thank you The Hat for your advices. In fact, yesterday I have bought the refurbished print head on ebay that I linked some posts ago. It was the last unit that the seller had. I think that $99 for a refurbished printhead is expensive but I am involved as a hobby with color management and with...

Hello Trigger 37. Thank you to try to understand what happened to my printhead. I don't know if the B200 dissapear due to try to enter in "service Mode"... I have scanned a nozzle test increasing the saturations and the contrast. You will see that the PhotoCyan test is divided with 2 parts...

Hello! Finally I let soaking the ceramic plate for more than 2 days. I rinsed it with distilled water and dry it externally. I installed it and printed a nozzle test. The nozzle test was perfect except for the PhotoCyan color that printed dark the half top and light the half bottom. I...

Thank you very much for your replies. Is true what you say. Here the prices are a lot expensive than the prices on Canon USA. I buy often outside EU, usually to China and USA, and, normally, I receive it through the post office. Then, I don't pay usually customs fees. But if customs...

Thank you websnail for your link. I prefer to not spend so much money with the printhead. Think that with shippong it will costs, approximatelly, 115=130=USD176. For me, a little bit expensive. More if I read that the price on US is: http://www.nifty-stuff.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=9062...

Hello. I have a Canon PIXMA Pro9000MKII and I am having problems with Photo Cyan color. When the problem starts I had only problems with the PC color. A lighter cyan band on the middle of the PC nozzle test. I dismount the print head and soak it on distilled water for 24 hours. I do a nozzle...

Hello. I have bought the W5 Glass cleaner. It is not labeled their formulation. On the Lidl store was 2 different W5 Window Cleaners. One with blue colorant and the other transparent. The blue costs 0,99 and the other 0,75. The blue one seems to be the traditional and the transparent an...

You have reason but in my case I don't know where to buy Propylene glycol and ammonia (not a lor diluted). I have, yet, distiled water amd Isopropyl alcohol. If I can buy Propylene glycol and ammonia I do the product myself. Is a sure way that you are using a correct product because the Windows...

Thank you PeterBJ for your reply and information. Seems that Ajax sells their products, in EU, with different bottle designs. I don't see the bottle that you buy to use for the clogs of the printhead: http://www.colgate.es/app/PDP/Ajax/ES/Products/Glass-Cleaner.cwsp I see that the "AJAX...

Thank you turbguy for clarify this issue because I have not read if you use the new or the old formula.

Hello. I have go to the Lidl store but it was a lot of people in the line to pay. I had not the time to wait. Tomorrow I will go once more with a little more of time. Also I will try to find ammonia, as you show me, on Lidl store or on an specialized store. The Hat, thank you once more !

Thank you for your reply The Hat. I have a Lidl store near home. In a few hours, I will go to buy W5. Is only one glass cleaner named W5 on Lidl store? After reeading a lot of posts, seems that ammonia is important to unclog the printhead. It is important that the formula includes ammonia...

Hello. I have some clogs on a Canon Pro9000MKII and I am trying to unclog but I dont know which is the best alternative cleaner to use. In the forum a lot of people uses Windex Glass Cleaner as a good solution. I have searched for the formula and I find an old formula and a new formula at...

Actually I am evaluating to buy a second hand R2400 to a neighbor that was unused for 5-6 months. I am worryed about if I will be able to unclog it and once unclogged to avoid constant clogs. Also this printer seems to have a communication error, that Epson was unable to solve, that during a...

Really amazing results of your comparison. :o Seems that a good paper, good inks and a correct profile reduce the differences with printer models. Also, the size of the picture made very difficult to compare them meticulously but seems that any print has a color cast and both shows neutral...

Hi Larry (TXAvi8tor)! Thank you for your interesting answer. When I buy a printer and after the first refill I buy different papers to test with the refilled cartridges. Here Epson papers offers a good quality/price ratio. After select the paper I request to profile my printer with these inks...

Hi. Larry (TXavi8tor), reading your arguments, once more, I am convinced to finally buy a Pro9000. But before to buy it, I want to download the profiles of each printer to compare with SoftProof. Really it is not useful because, with it, I will have an approximate idea of the colors with OEM...

Dear Larry. Thank you for your extend reply. Reading your reply anybody will see that's write with logical and for somenone with experience. For "novices", like me, is necessary to read it 2 times, to undestand completely. Here is too late. Tomorrow I will it read one more time. Thank you...

Larry: many many thanks for your reply. I am very happy to read your answer. I don't know if I'm so happy because it is the answer that I want to read... If your experience working with "colors" is greater than 45 years I'm sure that your eyes are very trained to see and compare colors...
