    Sudden Death (printhead)

    Or maybe I should call it Black Death, because it's the black that suddenly stopped half way a print. The black OEM cartridge of my B40W wasn't empty at all and exchanging that cartridge didn't help. Next thing I did was flushing the black by a syringe filled with printhead cleaning fluid that...

    Which Epson Claria Compatible Dye Refill Ink Is Decently Fade Resistant ?

    Lyson has the best light fastness as far as I know, but there are some disadvantages: The ink mixes poorly with the OEM ink and I don't know if it clogs often in Claria printers. The test by Costadinos is interesting: Not only it shows the superiority of the Claria OEM ink, it also shows that...

    Looking For A New Printer

    The Epson printers of newer generations don't have these clogging problems. So I recommend Epson XP-800 or one of the other printers in the XP series. I'm also satisfied with my Canon MG6250 printer, due to the grey ink cart photos in B/W are printed perfect. But newer Canon printers are less...

    Piezo Vs Thermal

    You're right, Peter. Epson is not the only one using piezo technology. I haven't tried a Brother printer yet.

    Piezo Vs Thermal

    Ahem, shouldn't this be a reaction to an existing discussion instead of a new one? I must admit that I too think the piezo technology is superior to the thermal one. Epson makes that.

    High Volume Printer??

    Use a CIS with that high volume of printing. A CIS works best with an Epson printer, choose one of the printers Costadinos mentioned.

    Official Poll: How Do You Refill Your Inkjet Printer Cartridge?

    To me the German method is the best! Or maybe we should call it the Flemish method since Pharmacist gave a lecture about the method on this forum. After having red this lecture I bought a Canon printer! On my Epson printers I use the normal filling procedure with refillable carts.

    Hi Peter, The white printer is the Epson Photo 895. It was introduced in2001 and one year later replaced by the less popular Photo 915. The cover of the original printer was damaged and I replaced it with the cover of a 915. The Canon i865 was a nice design indeed, from 2003? Canon also had the...

    Firmware Upgrades ? ?

    Why do printer manufacturers do this? Well, on aging print heads get clogged more often so more and deeper cleaning cycles are advisible. Users who don't like that should take the next precautions: -Always use the CD-rom that came with the printer to install the driver. Don't use newer drivers...
