Hi @The Hat , What if now I buy a set of OEM carts and install it into the printer which already has refilled-ink inside. Would the mix of OEM and refilled-ink clog the printhead? Do I need to flush the printhead or do many deep cleaning cycles just to push out all remaining refilled-ink inside...

I think any inkjet printers whose ink cartridges can be reset or no need to be reset, can be refilled. This includes both Integrated Printhead - IPA (printhead on ink cart) and Individual Ink Cartridges - IIC (printhead on printer) type. However, IPA seems to last shorter than IIC because the...

Wow! I good workshop on inkjet paper. Thanks so much. Hope you can provide some more info about paper based on what you know. Let this be a guru-thread about paper. ^^ Wax paper?? I have never seen anyone who can inkjet print on that. But I have seen some wax paper with some stuff "printed"...

Hi, Can someone help me distinguish between inkjet paper and photo paper? From what I know, inkjet paper are just like A4/A3 plain paper with a special coated layer on top of the surface to help cope with dye ink better, and the coated surface doesn't look shiny or fancy like photo paper...

Oh, I though Epson use pigment ink for that. It would be wonderful if Epson use pigment ink. Maybe people will just buy the printer and then refill it with OCP pigment ink. I like L series logic board more than the chinese ARC which is not stable.

Hi, Does anyone know that ink for Epson L series (all L series except L800, for ex. L3xx, L2xx, L1xx) is pigment or dye? I can't work that out in the specs of the printer on Epson website. Does anyone know what exactly "ink charging" do? Epson has that kind of things on their L series and are...

Hi, I see that L800 use a different ink code than other L series printer. Is the ink for L800 different from ink for other L? I suppose that al 4 ink for L800 is Clara dye ink and designed for photo printing because L800 is announced as photo printer.

Those streaks are, up till now, not noticeable when printing photo in Best mode or Max DPI mode. In Draft and Normal mode, it is a little bit visible but not much. Anyway, if this is the price I have to pay for using very wrong ink (and, to find appropriate ink and ink sellers in my location...

Let's imagine that: LASER -- INKJET ============== Toner -- Ink | What leaves marks on paper Drum -- Print head | What transfer ^ onto paper Fuser -- air :D | What make those 2 stuffs stick together. Refilling wrong type of ink will ruin the print...

I think to get a printer works in a non-Windows world, we have some choices: Buy Linux-compatible printers. (See here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers) Connect printer to a print server box/real server which support Linux or universal printing protocol, like IP, CUPS, SMB, etc. If...

Now I don't care about Y channel anymore, but the K channel and M channel!! With those very little faint streaks, do I need to really care?? P/S: I think it's a clog, not an electrical failure. What do you think? (Applied: one Sharpen, one Negative.)

Yellow Nozzles Recovery --- Hey, let's have a look: Yes! I managed to recover my yellow nozzles from severe clogging (see my previous posts for images of my yellow nozzles when it got clogged). You can see a little contamination on the yellow channel, but what important is there's virtually...

Use pigment ink with PaperOne A4 100gsm. It's very good. Or you can use OEM products which is quite over price. I'm using PaperOne A4 80gsm with carbon pigment black ink. Good quality, as good as HP paper everyday paper.

Can we iron them to make it flat? :rolleyes:

Oh, un-lucky me! In my country people know how to do things with old Epson series as well as ARC chip and CISS for those old ones are ubiquitous. But finding toys for those new wonderful printers are as hard as visiting Mar. :/ That's why I'm asking for refilling OEM cart and disable ink...

To sum up, for Vietnam: Laser: almost all having-brand A4 paper can be used. Recommended: IKPlus, PaperOne, Double A. Inkjet: so far I only love PaperOne (PaperOne also a collaborator with HP in term of ColorLok tech, now becoming ProDigi...). IKPlus performance is not really good on inkjet -...

Yes! Chinese products and no-brand products and urgly-quality products are ubiquitous here. Good-quality products are a little bit hard to find, since most people want cheap first and before quality, so sellers despite knowing a better product, have to sell those cheap ones first!
