    How to reach ink waste tank? /Dismantle i960

    Trigger, I think I must have been confused when I posted those sequences. Based on your recommendations, here are my most recent results: -------------------------- Start with the printer OFF 1. Hold down RESUME and then hold down POWER 2. Release RESUME 3. Press RESUME twice, then release...

    How to reach ink waste tank? /Dismantle i960

    Hi Trigger. I didn't fade away. My life is periods of frantic activity (during which I set everything else aside to focus on the project in hand) separated by periods of relative calm. Not knowing exactly what "Go into Service Mode" meant, I did some research and this is the note I created for...

    How to reach ink waste tank? /Dismantle i960

    Hi Trigger 37. Just read a couple of posts of yours about these manuals you are working on. If they cover the i865 I WANT ONE --- and I'll tell you up front that, if they are as comprehensive as you describe, US$10 is WAY too cheap. My i865 is just on 3 years old and it's greatest importance...

    Canon i865 EEPROM

    UPDATE: I just figured out how to get a "Service Test Print" (see below). What I still can't find is how to get an "EEPROM information print". I'm taking those "print" terms from an "i860 Service Manual", which explains how to interpret the results, but not how to get the printouts. To get...
