I found that the German method required a sharp needle for non-Canon carts.
The ones with foam inserts (Hobbilcolors) were compressed with the blunt needle.
The foam also ended up being pushed into the reservoir on the tip of the needle and as the ink was injected it quickly soaked into the...
The supermarkets are full of bottled ammonia where I live - and in the last forty years I've never heard of any epidemics of ammonia poisoning.

As soon as I pressed the plunger on the syringe, water (mixing with residual ink in the sponge) started leaking out of the vent.
No matter how slowly I injected, the water all went into the sponge - nothing in the...
My question was why inject at all on the sponge side and thence to the reservoir - when you can move the injection site a millimeter to the other side of the barrier and into the empty reservoir.
What's the difference between injecting the ink from the sponge side into the reservoir and injecting it straight into the reservoir?
Is it something to do with air pressure?
I live in Ontario and the local Staples is offering the ip-4500 (includes CD tray printing and five carts) for $69.
The Best Buy (US) website is offering the ip-4500 (no CD tray and one PG-5 plus only one CLI-8 cart) for $123.
Apart from the world being turned upside down inasmuch as a Canadian...
