Epson aside (I did specify Canon) I have mopped up spilled ink with a paper towel and tossed it in the round file - come time to take out the trash the towel is dry ( still pretty colours though).
I thought the ink (in the typical Canon) was water - why doesn't it evaporate when sucked into the waste pad?
If it evaporates, what wet stuff is left to accumulate in the pad necessitating a replacement..
If I can be allowed a supplement to nanosec's post - why does the pad have to be replaced?
What goes into the pads is water - why isn't it simply evaporating?
What material is the pad made from?
Would a piece of felt not fill the need.
As an aside;what does the pad fill up with?Is not ink mostly water?Shouldn't it just evaporate?
Went to install IE8 and it lets me know that Easy-WebPrint won't work.
The Canon site says the same - and nothing is offered to make it work.
Anyone know about the problem and a workaround?
I can't find anything on the forum using the search feature.
I never purchased the Oasis letter size - because of the Likon experience.
I note that the colour of the packaging on the 'Oasis' is different from previously.
The logo on the back of the paper, "Professional Color Paper", is identical on both Likon and Oasis - so it's a roll of the dice what...
I agree with 'mikling' re the Dollarama paper.
The also carry 'Likon' paper, which gives dismal results in my Canon Ip6000
The 'Oasis' 4x6 is 230gm/m2;the Likon is 225/m2.
I can't address that specific printer, but on my Canon IP6000 the front USB port works when a camera (mine uses a CF card) is plugged in using a USB cable.
Inserting a usb stick containing images gives an error message.
