My Epson won't print anymore. I think the print head is gone. I tried cleaning it, but to no avail; it won't print anything. I'm going to cut my losses and not put anymore time into trying to fix it. This was a workhorse for many years in our home. Which Epson printer is equivalent to the...

Yeah, but you can only get one printer via rebate. So, I am confused. Aren't you looking to source a 2nd set of cartridges? I just showed you how and how to get even more than just the cartridges on the cheap. Oh well, I tried to help. Have fun and good luck. Peace.

You can purchase a set from Canon, but you'd be better off searching Craiglist where folks are selling them new as low as $125, which includes the cartridges, print head, printer and some even include the 13x19 paper - much better deal than spending $125 just for the cartridges from Canon. I've...

Hopefully the OP will chime in and let us know the outcome since he posted this back in the summer. While we are on the subject. I have a cart that's been sitting for months and I am sure the sponge is dry as a bone. How do you prep it for ink? I was thinking of adding distilled water until...

That's not my photo, it's the OP's photo^^^^. Mine look like what The Hat posted.

Got it Thanks. I am definitely aware of the yellow cartridge as I've already cleaned and reused 1 of them. I just caught the 2nd cartridge when I went to refill the other day and have cleaned it, too, for reuse. Also, I have a couple of the CLI-8 cartridges as backup, however, the one chip...

I've search with no luck so far. I will keep trying. Update: I found post from '09 where someone mention milking a cartridge by squeezing the sides, but that's about it so far. I am still looking.

Do you have a link to the milking process? I'd like to have it for future use, if needed. Thanks

Hello. I am late to the game on Precision's newer inks (PC42-M2, PC42-PM2 and PC42-BK2) for the Pro-100 (well haven't need to buy ink until now) and have a question. I need to reorder ink for the printer. 1. Do I need to flush these cartridges before filling them with the newer inks? 2. Is it...

Yep. I was able to get 2 of them cleaned with some patience and the right tool for the job.

You old guys going to get banned, haha. :plbb The price I paid for the printer was $125.

Not sure where you are located, but check Craiglists for folks selling the Pro 100 printer they received via Canon rebates. I just purchased my 2nd one for cheap (not sure if I can post prices) off Craiglist for backup. So now, I have another set of oem catridges, print head and 13x19 Luster...

Thanks Hat. It's definitely my fault. I let the printer sit too long without a print. I am soaking in Windex now.

Hello and thanks. I've tried alot of deep cleans and it won't budge. I need to do an out of printer clean. Do I soak the printhead in the windex? If not, how do I got about the cleaning process. For the time being, I've replaced the printhead with a new one - I purchased a printer from...

Here's a photo. I enhanced it a bit so that the PM nozzle print will show better, so the other colors may look off. Thanks

I will continue to refill as long as supplies are there.

Hello everyone. The PM cartridge is clogged. I ran several cleaning stages with no luck. I replaced the cartridge and ran a couple more cleaning with no luck. Any advice on unclogging the print head? I found some information about placing the head some water and flushing by adding water to...

Ok^^^

Not a 3880 owner, so at this point all I can add is just fire it up and see what happens, especially since you can revert it and one other poster has the same version with no issue. You will know then for sure the affects and can educate other 3880 owners.

Did you get a chance to compare the inks? From the looks of the cartridges, they look like they are ready to use out the box - just fill a print.
