The CISS setup is out of my league, but I do have the R1900 and noticed when I used high speed printing, it left strange lines in the print. I did the alignment check and print head clean, all to no avail. It is when I used the RPM profiles to print slowly did my problems go away. So, that is...
Cool idea. Another option you can use to force water through the cart is a garden pump sprayer, if you have issues rigging up a hose. The faucet seems much easier though, but another option, just in case.

OP don't know if this helps or not, but I pulled up windows color management just to see what the settings were for windows and here is what they are (see below). Note: the checkbox "use this setting for my device" - my calibration. Maybe you will have something similar for your setup base on...
That's a lot of inks to keep up with. I currently am only refilling the Pro 100. I am going to get the refill kit for the Epson R1900 and Workforce 610 (general purpose printer). My wife and kids were putting a killing on those inks. I wish I knew about refilling. I will also get the kit...
I see, you have quite a few printers. I was thinking multiple sets for the same printer.
Also, I was referring to the line on the other side of the cartridge (tank side).
OP, I am not sure I follow all that you are doing. Are you setting color mgmt via the monitor settings.
Also, in a previous post, you stated that you used a friends colorimeter. If it were me, I'd ask the friend to use it again and if it can make printer profiles, I would use it to that...
My experience with an IPS monitor and gaming.
I have a Dell U3011 monitor, which response time is 7ms, and I game pretty heavy with it. I play Battlefield 3, 4, Crysis (all) Batman Arkham City at max settings using Nvidia 680 SLI (also used the the 560 SLI for quite awhile with the Dell...
OP, I found this post where the poster states there are HP 27" IPS monitors on sale. Just a heads up, just in case you consider going with an IPS monitor

Do you have any photos of the purged cart?
I purged mine also (top fill though) and it is whiter than the purged CLI-8 cart. I will keep it in the inventory just in case I need it in the future.
I've seen references here about setup cartridges and I've noticed that is what I have (came with printers), which peaked my interest. So, my question is what is the difference between a setup cartridge and (unknown to me) a non-setup cartridge?
Thanks...Al
One thing I did is go through all the paper type (i.e. luster, gloss, semi-gloss etc) and setup each and saved the profile, so that I don't have to always double check the settings - just click which paper I want to print on and all settings are automatically retrieved for that particular paper...
I agree with Mike. I have seen this with every Canon CLI-42 cart so far when I removed the ball. I thought "how is this sealed" and as Mike stated it's the label that's doing the sealing.
This may have been posted, but just in case it has not been. This review of the Pro 100 by Redriver Paper may be helpful to those that's new to this printer. It gives some information on the various driver tabs, with explanations of the various settings. They also provide a step by step...
Background:
Ok. I printed the “Printer Evaluation Image” to see where my printer stands. I compared the Canon Custom ICC paper profiles to the Custom paper profiles I created with the Colormunki Photo. I printed 2 images for both profiles (all settings were identical); one using perceptual...
Not that I am lazy, but I guess I've gotten used to other forums where I just click on multiple quotes and they automatically drop into my post.
Thanks for the suggestions. I will use it the next time.
Btw, Websnail. I used your cleaning kit and it made the work easy. Thanks
