I have cleaned and use the yellow now, but it's not the easiest to clean, but if one takes their time and does 2-3 windex soakings, the yellow comes out cleaner than the Cyan's......pure white sponge actually. Have 4 sets now that are cleaned and ready for refill, but the Cyan and PCyan do not...

a better deal is to buy 2 cli-42 inks and get 170 sheets of 13x19 ....1 20 sht glossy, 2 50 sht semi gloss and 1 50 sht luster that is added for free when buying at least 2 carts. I am doing it 2 at a time to have the carts so i can have a spare set to refill with PC ink. selling half of the...

@Hat, well an even bigger thank you to you for mentioning Alibaba in a thread. I was able to score a New original head for this printer:bow:bow:bow............my son ain't gettin his grubby hands on it either:plbb

Hat, I wish i had read this thread that i now have bookmarked, http://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/cleaning-solution-application-methods-for-canon-print-heads.10169/#post-84679 your post was like a good sock in the eye:smackcuz it says it all. Yes the carts are OEM.............one thing i...

After draining and flushing the 2 sets of carts i started with for this printer i have concluded to my own mistake. Not checking ink flow was the stupid act of the month:he to which just adds to the learning curve. The PM cart that was in use had no flow whatsover, even flushed it showed no...

Please take a look at this nozzle check, although it's obvious what's going on, i am not sure if it is permanent damage or not. Started going bad last weekend. Did a nozzle check and only one stripe. Took the PM cartridge out and dribbled Windex on the inlet of the PM port...........let sit for...

Same here on the cyan and Photo cyan. I just finished with 2 of the 3 sets i have. 2 sets are the current inks i started with where i modified for refilling and just added PC inks to original OEM when they became low, and the 3rd set from which i bought online mainly just to have the chips, but...

Wow, I come to this site every morning and never browse thru all the other boards until lately. Very nice to see such work and gives one a feeling of who people are and what they do here seeing this. I am a Millman (real cabinet making) by trade since 1974 and truly appreciate what it means to...

Zactly.......I live here, but have to say it's sad to be part of this country that use to have an upstanding image in the world. ..............anyone here in the good ol US of A know what products we are proudly known for these days?........“Bueller?… Bueller?… Bueller?”......anyone?

Hope it's cool to bring this back out as i have received a set of CLI-42's for my Pro 100. After trying a chemical called Goof Off on 1 test cart in another trhead, and then really researching here on the site i have concluded to using 2 liquids to bring this set to...

Peter, that is so cool to see all this info.

:yuckyuck

Ummm yeah William you scored nicely..............I have 3 brand new in the box Pro-100's i'll sell you for $100.00 (for all 3), but you gotta come pick 'em up:pop.........be worth it to see you make the mad dash cross country:clap

Well that's pretty much what us Yanks :hide do except we salvage and resell the printhead.........pretty much a no money out of pocket exchange:plbb

Canon says no worries............like Mike said, recycling is stricter in Europe. I also received a few CLI-42 carts from ebay with same logo. Put one in the printer and it blinked as an empty does and showed the big red X. Did the reset and it then showed full. I did not dare run a print with...

Joe is also where i first heard of it too. Had a small bottle that was given to me that cleared a clog. Not sure where i put that one now either so i bit the bullet and bought a 220ml recently. Only $41.00 shipped. I know it's good stuff...........

Ya i was expecting to have to do that on the 1st 2 carts as well...........I was really very surprised to see the results i did with cart 1. It makes this cart a prize possession:bow

pictures speak out loud right........ I didn't know there was a 100S

something of an update, This venture included 3 CLI-42Y carts to be cleaned. 2 of these were loaded with Windex w/ammonia, and 1 with Goof Off. Checking the carts for cleansing affect is verified by shining intense LED light through them to see whether or not all the yellow is gone as all 3...

LOL Mike...............i'm sure by now they have realised they goofed by not inserting a recycling fee in hopes of people sending in their used carts to keep them out of our hands. I believe you are right about the inventory balance. I looked on ebay and found quite a few completed sales on...
