Sorry if this has been covered before, I'm sure it has but I couldn't find it.
-Do I need to remove the air filters and replace the rubber caps while not in use?
-My CISS came with instructions for remove the air when first installed, the detailed transferring the air to the small chambers at...
What happens if a cartridge (CISS) reports empty or low during a very large print? Can I reset the cartridge and keep printing or will it wreck the print?
Sorry no pictures at the moment, my hands are covered in ink in typical fashion.
I now believe that the "clogs" people are seeing in these printers are not due to the printhead at all. Let me tell you how I got here.
After some time soaking the printhead and fiddling running nozzle checks, I...
Signs of life?
After soaking the printhead on a wet paper towel alternating between simplegreen and Windex, I have seen little improvement. Cyan has flowed well from the start but everything else is dead. Today the nozzels are starting to show up for the party maybe this is a sign of life...
I have had an Epson Stylus Pro 4900 with a clogged printhead come into my life. We weren't trying, it just sort of happened and even though we weren't prepared for this, we are excited about the future that lies ahead.

I dont! :idunno
Going to start firing off Canvas Giclee's on the DJ500 using photos from the mars rovers here soon... Huge gallery wrapped prints over wood stretchers. Links to the store pages coming soon! :frow
as for the SP4000, posters? dunno yet. It was free. :lol:
Hey my picture is gone? :hu
Anyways, speaking of inks. This thing needs a fill before I can play with it too much more. cleared a blockage in the yellow line and am taking the dampers out now to have a looksee. :caf
I'm intending to run 220ml refillable carts and buy 1l bottles of InkTec K3...
It's flat out of ltK ink. So in I went on the Stylus Pro 4000.
Oh Joyous broken(?) yellow line?
In I go. Im gunning at taking the left ink bay out, but ill probably keep going, purge all of the Ink lines with cleaner (simple green?). clean up whatever else I can find.
Left cover off...
