    German Durchstich refill method for Canon carts with pictures

    To further stratman's point, the Durchstich method can only be courted with a long needle, whereas the top hole method does not place any demands on size.

    MX870 print qualitty problems?

    Stratman, thanks for the laugh! Parhs, yes, normal quality may exhibit this problem. It is not really meant for photos (unless you use normal quality with the photo papers setting which is entirely different).

    MX870 print qualitty problems?

    Yes, stratman is correct. This is a US-based forum and writing in non English will prevent other members from contributing. Photos printed in normal quality may exhibit this problem, nothing to worry about. Just make sure that print heads are correctly aligned.

    MX870 print qualitty problems?

    The nozzle check runs fine and you have aligned both automatically and manually and the problem persists, right ?

    Sealing the refill hole BCI-6 BCI-3

    It's messy. I've been using these rubber plugs for 4 years but since I've tried the German method I never looked back.

    New weapon of Canon: new carts to replace CLI-221/521 and PGI-220/520

    What do you mean ? Do they increase cleaning cycles when the monitoring is disabled ? I was considering disabling it (even though I have a redsetter that works perfectly) because I found that the level warnings were too conservative and bothersome.

    CLI8 Resetter problem

    I've encountered the issue myself. Wiping the contacts with dry tissue fixes it in the 80% of the cases. For the rest, I let the cartridge sit in the drawer and when I get back to it after some days it resets fine.

    There are potential benefits if the design is correct: easier inspection of ink levels & more refills without purges. Perhaps michele could post a few photos of them in action.

    Spongeless cartridge from inkjetreset.com

    I had bad experiences too... these are recorded in some of my first posts in this forum. But the design was radically different (worse) compared to this.

    Is the Sudhaus the best resetter for Canon CLI8?

    Yes the landscape is cluttered but the solution is simple. Either get one that is definitely Sudhaus (being red is not enough) or get one which is offered with a guarantee.

    Refilling PG-830/CL-831 carts

    Do not overfill above 3 ml each color. Aligning only affects quality, so you can safely make your own tests. see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Bicu36aTXw and then this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6n7VhGZaByE

    which AIO to buy which offers best cart refill ??

    Between an HP which uses the HP10/11 or HP88 tanks and a Canon which uses separate ink tanks, Canon is easier to refill (and better in other important areas). I don't know about others. Search Youtube for refill videos on the cartridges of the AIO's you consider buying. It will be revealing.

    Opinions on the Canon iP3680??

    No, don't worry. You just won't be able to reset them with the current redsetter. Did you find any official info about the capacity of the cartridges? What happened to the IP3300 ? Did it break ?
