    Inktec Pigment Ink

    It seems that there're two kinds of Spyderprint users : 1-People who sold their device, 2-People who will sell it.

    My Next Fast CoreXY Printer : Bambu Labs X1 / P1S Creality K1 Qidi X-MAX 3 ?

    I suspect that very few Voron users would equal what you achieved with your Crealitys.

    My Next Fast CoreXY Printer : Bambu Labs X1 / P1S Creality K1 Qidi X-MAX 3 ?

    Prusa is facing strong competition, more than they can handle, I suspect. It’s no surprise that a middle sized European company can’t beat the always rising power of the Chinese industry, if only in terms of labor cost and sourcing components. If you were a regular on Prusa forums, as I’m...

    My Next Fast CoreXY Printer : Bambu Labs X1 / P1S Creality K1 Qidi X-MAX 3 ?

    If you want my biased opinion, forget about bambus, crealitys and other flashy Chinese stuff. Build a Voron to get the real thing. ( I'm sure redbrickman will agree ;) ).

    MG5300 reset counter

    Did you purchase the tool or did you got a free download ?. In the later case, AFAIK ,all the free downloaded versions are fakes and won't work,.They do what you describe : the screen appears but you won't be able to perform any operation. Don't ask me how I know it. :rolleyes: It seems that...

    Replacement heads, advice please

    Don't bother to look on Aliexpress because new and genuine QY6-0083 printheads are still currently available from reliable vendors. The best source depends on where you're located. As you own a TS-5150, I expect you're in Europe ? If so, in the continent : eparts.fr (France ) and ceins.de...

    Making printer-profile on the cheap?

    Years ago, I used the Profile Prism software to make profiles using my scanner. Quality of the profiles ?. Mediocre at best, being indulgent. Too many variables at play: the color gamut and dynamic range varies a lot between different scanners. The spectral response of the paper to the scanner...

    3D Printed Neon Signs

    Many high temp. filaments as PC, ABS or PA, use little or no cooling fan, but those filaments are usually printed inside an enclosure to deal with warping. They also tend to be very sensitive to humidity so is not a good idea to keep the spools lying around, exposed to air moisture. The filament...

    3D Printed Neon Signs

    Two hotends, Nifty ? I see only one, fed by two Bowden extruders. Do they use this setup to get more output or just to be able to mix different colors, if needed ? Your guess is as good as mine. I wonder which kind of filament is this. As you can see, there’s no print fan, so it must be a stuff...

    Canon pro 100 11 blinks on power up horrible noice .

    What kind of blinking do you have ... orange only or alternating between orange and green ?. The first case (orange only) means operator error and can be fixed by the user. On the second case it's service error and most of the times requires replacing a damaged component.

    Pixma IP4300 Print Head Alignment

    This has nothing to do with alignment issues. It’s partially clogged nozzles on the second stripes of cyan and magenta. These two channels have a smaller droplet size than the others, hence they’re more prone to clog if the machine hasn’t been used for some time, because ink may have dried...

    Another New 3D Project..

    That's a mighty and majestic statue. Your Buddha looks now a little thing, in comparison. :) I've been trying to make one of these Moais for sometime, but other things came in the way. Maybe next month...

    Refillable ink tanks on Maxify 5120

    Those autoreset chips don't last forever. At some point, they start to fail and the ink level doesn't resets to full anymore, but to a lower level. Eventually, the chip dies and you see on screen a question mark and a message saying that ink level on one or more cartridges cannot be measured (...

    Canon Inkjet printhead connectors (scans & photos)

    Unless the info of your avatar isn't correct, you have a Canon 9000 MKii. The Hat is right, there're no more new carts for this printer, not that Canon gone bankrupt but because they discontinued this model of printhead a few years ago. You'll find plenty of "refurbished" Pro-9000mkii printheads...

    Yet another Colormunki Photo for sale

    We all change with age. Unfortunately nobody manufactures a calibration device able to restore our younger days. I bet that my current 'gamut' is much narrower than thirty tears ago.. :he

    "Adapting" wide format PFI ink to small printers with 1pl nozzles

    You’re right. I forgot that PFI carts didn’t start using pigment Lucia pigment inks until the PFI-105 series. PFI102-104 are dye, except for the MBK. Thanks for the reminder.

    Ask the Service manual Canon Pixma Pro-1

    I'm afraid that you'd have to burglar Canon's vaults to get one of these.

    "Adapting" wide format PFI ink to small printers with 1pl nozzles

    PFI inks are pigmented. You shouldn't use those inks on CLI carts which use dye inks !. No wonder you have problems. I advice to remove all the pigmented inks inside the CLI carts and flush them thoroughly. Consider yourself lucky if you can restore afterwards the nozzles of your printer to...

    Canon PRO 300 5B00 error

    This seems to be an unexplored territory. AFAIK none of the regulars here owns these printers, so you'd have to be a pioneer and endure the foreseable mistakes... :rolleyes: Have you searched on Youtube ? As for a service manual, PeterBJ is the expert, but I suspect that the only place to look...
