    MX925 black out of focus on alternate directions

    This sounds like a damaged printhead. The nozzle test will show it in the text below the colors. Here in Germany I got a MX925 serviced by Canon with a new printhead for 89€ including cost for sending. That’s a fair price. So ask Canon support for repair. Cheers, Maximilian

    Service Tools for Canon Printers

    Yes you are right. I checked this with a IP2850 a while ago. You get access to some things, but you can't do much. Maybe there are some tricks for Canon service people we don't know.

    Epson Stylus 1500w - Missing details at 1440 ppi

    I can't see artifacts. At the numbers it may seem like this. What software are you using and what screen? Here is a png made on a old gaming screen with windows viewer and with 500% with Photoshop. The gray pixels are no artifacts. That is how the pattern is designed. This file is not ment to...

    Canon Pro 1000 Error code b204

    I don’t know if it works with this printer. Open the lid and press the resume button for more than 15 seconds. Maybe the printhead moves to the changing position.

    WorkForce WF-2850 won't print all of document on legal bulletin paper

    Does your preprinted page have color on the leading edge or is there some white space? I don’t know how the leading edge is detected. You can open the printer during printing and watch what happens when.

    Epson Stylus 1500w - Missing details at 1440 ppi

    I will check tomorrow. It is late now. I remember a scientific study how small the droplets can be. The end is at 1 pl because then other effects of dynamics play a role for such small things. Like the velocity of the head, the air moved between nozzle opening and substrate, not enough dye for...

    Epson Stylus 1500w - Missing details at 1440 ppi

    A digital picture can never have DPI. It only has pixels. Depending on the output you get PPI. Normally this refers only for monitors, because this is a output device which shows pixels. And depending on the pixel density the file is shown larger or smaller at 100% view. The same happens with a...

    Epson Stylus 1500w - Missing details at 1440 ppi

    This means, that for every inch of the printed file you have 1440 pixels. Your provided pictures are very small. Printing them with 2400/1200 PPI to the printer gives with a 1 to 1 relation a 1“ wide print, as you say with 1 pixel per dot. Everything else is a recalculation of the file for the...

    Epson Stylus 1500w - Missing details at 1440 ppi

    So you alter the image during the printing process. Did you ever check how the image looks after enlarging it, but not printed at 100% view. I wonder whether the problems are part of the enlargement.

    Epson Stylus 1500w - Missing details at 1440 ppi

    As I don’t know, what is an aliased image? What are the native PPI of your file? If PPI and DPI differs, a recalculation ist done. If your picture has eg 720 PPI with wanted sizes, than a printer cannot put more information in it. With printing on higher DPI, you tell the driver to use more...

    R2400 won’t communicate with Mac

    Did you check your printer queue? It should be empty. How did you install the printer? By adding it with the plus sign in printers and scanners or by installing with the driver from the Epson site? You should always use the provided driver and not manually in system preferences. Take care, that...
