I used these two printers continuously for several years until I needed a large format printer (Pro9000). I really liked these printers and they were easy to refill. I held on to them thinking I might use them again. I hate to see them trashed thinking that maybe someone could use them. I'm sure...

It certainly is and thank you so much. I do remember now reading something about that years ago, but never had to do that. I will give it a try.

can you elaborate a little bit and explain this a little more? I'm not quite sure what you mean

I guess I forgot in the beginning to say that I had just tried 2 new generic cartridges. Before that I had used a re-filled OEM cartridge. Just now I refilled a different OEM cartridge and so far I have printed 5 normal test prints. I hope the problem is solved but I'm not convinced because this...

I started to print the nozzle checks. The 1st one was perfect, the 2nd one had just partially filled the black. I have scanned and posted the first 3. Each time there was less black. I've used printers for many many years and this is a 1st for me. Generally if I have trouble it is just lines? I...

Thank you all for the replies and help. Yesterday I was trying to print a label for a doll body I had sold on eBay, so i just scanned that this morning. I hope you can tell it was pale in places and has a greenish tone. I did a nozzle check and no black was showing. So then I did a cleaning and...

I was having problems with several colors. I removed my print had and cleaned it but still continued to have problems. I installed a new printhead and all the colors are good except for black. Part of the time it works but part of the time it is pale. I have changed ink cartridges 3 times, (once...

Thanks for your reply. It is a Canon CLI-8 and I use the bottles with blunt needles. I had a cartridge in the past that I had to bend the needle to make it work so I just tried that needle and it finally worked. Yesterday I was in a hurry and not much patience:) Thanks

Hi all, I have used the German method for several years and have always been able to insert the needle into the ink chamber. I have a new OEM empty cartride that I am unable to get the needle into the chamber. It seems like t here is no passage...is this possible?

Well thanks and I want to say, I am going back to refilling the cartridges! I used German method for several years and loved it, but had trouble with a cartridge last year and bought the generics...mistake:( Thanks again

Oh my gosh, it worked! Thank you so much! I was sure I had ruined the print head.

I had a cartridge low last week and changed it. Shut printer cover and proceeded to print a page. got message cartridge not recognized. opened cover and all cartridges except 1 were flashing. i changed all 1x1 and still won't print. i had been using generic cartridges for long time. i had...

Ok now this is really amazing! Now that I redid the cartridges with the new battery in chip resetter, getting perfect prints! How in the world? I have new cartridges ordered and a new print head, so I guess I will have them on hand for later...so happy

Oh thank you thank you Peter! I got a new battery and it is working...at least for now

Well I sure hope that is the case and I didn't think about that. I will try to get a battery today.

Hi yes I have a resetter and am still refilling the original OEM cartridges. I have had the printer about 4 years and they are same cartridges.

I had wrong address...http://www.inkjetprinthead.com/canon_printhead_for_i9900_i9950_ip8500_ip8600_pro_9000_duplicate.htm. Any idea how to get my printer working until I get them?

Well it was too good to be true. I printed quite a while yesterday and this morning i printed in greyscale only for a while. Now this evening started having streaks but it was still printing. Showing black and red needed refilling and after that the red won't reset. It stops flashing until I...

I live in Southern Illinois, USA and I am afraid our water might be hard but not sure

Oh boy, guess I was lucky this time!
