You can try one of these suggestions:
Instead of alcohol on the rubber roller, try sanding the rubber lightly with a nail file. Making the rubber paper grabber a little coarser once worked for me on a laser printer I owned.. It was suggested here about 3 yrs ago, but I can't find the...

This is superb information. Everyone here should print your comments and keep them for reference. I recently have started to print important references and solutions like this, and am keeping copies in a File folder. Sincere appreciation for your input!!
Welcome to the Forum, Birdy 176. I also have the ip6000 and the ip3000 and they are indeed fabulous machines. It would be worthwhile to you to read the threads about unclogging printheads..you will learn a lot from these threads, as everyone who uses Canons will eventually run into this problem...
These threads are great. Everyone will have this problem eventually, and no single method seems to work for everyone. Let's just keep adding to our body of knowledge. Good stuff!! I have learned a lot from this.
Well, I do Sell G&G compatibles, and I can tell you that the black cartridge is OK for the 600 and 740 as marked on the package. I don't know about genuine Epson cartridges, though...
Please post what the problem turns out to be. Also, it is a good idea in the future to take the name of the supervisor, just in case you do not get a callback today.
Good luck.
I presume your new printer came with a 1-yr warranty and new genuine Canon cartridges. Give Canon tech support a call, explain your situation, and if needed, they will send you a new printhead.
Good to see someone else from BC here...
I plan to order again from Precision Colours - (member Mikling on this board)

However, he seems to in transition these days....Leave a phone and/or email message for him.
He also sells on eBay Canada...
There are enough pgi-5 and cli-8 empty cartridges around. Why use the smaller 220 and 221 series cartridges on the older printers when you'll just have to refill them much more frequently??
He has always been very professional, knowledgeable, and honest. There WILL be an explanation shortly, I'm sure. This must be an illness, or a move, or an extended vacation. I am surprised, however, that he didn't leave a clearer explanation.
No..he will need a resetter. Epson resetters are very cheap, so if the printer is still in excellent condition and will last a while, it is definitely worth refilling.
Judging by what I sell, it would have to be yellow for everyday printers.. For those who use photo printers, it's photo magenta, photo cyan, and yellow.
There are still some mp530s, mp520s, and MX850s available at good prices which use resettable, larger cartridges. Try to find one of these models before buyingthe mp630..In my opinion,you won't regret it.
Pharmacist, I am sure you are 100% correct. Still, it would be helpful to many here if someone who has some knowledge and experience with this ink would post their experience here....
Sad to see Atlantic die out...they were a decent supplier for a few years..
I went through tis a few years ago...eBay is your best bet for older, used printers. As an example, some lexmark models can be used to test a variety of lexmark and Dell cartridges...
No matter what the reasons are for not bringing this to market sooner, the fact is that is better to test and improve the technology so that it is problem-free when it gets to market. Tech items that are rushed to marker (remember Vista?) leave a bad taste in consumers' mouths. Imagine if these...
Yes, it has taken longer to get this technology to market than expected, and we will see if it was worth the wait.
Eight seconds goes by pretty quickly..especially for a large document. Some of my printers already take more time to spool than this one.
I think the biggest problem might be...
If this is even moderately successful, you can bet the big 4 printer manufacturers will come out with similar, fixed head technology in the next year or 2.
Who said this wasn't an exciting industry(?)....lol
I have just written to the owner of Atlantic Inkjet, who up until now has been selling ink from Image Specialists..an excellent ink.
I am finding it difficult to find info about this DURAFIRM ink, but research tells me that more and more ink and cartridge suppliers are switching to Durafirm...
