A chipless printer is effectively a tank system printer - Mega - or Eco- - with the firmware just bypassing the subroutines handling the chips in a 'normal' printer - and not having the Ecotank tubing installed. So it could very well be that this company in Peru - a programmer there - is just...

As long as you let the printer administer the colors you should use the printer driver to make the settings there - specifically 'No color adjustments' via the extended color adjustment settings. And you need to use the same driver settings when you use that profile which you have created and...

I'm using Qimage for most print jobs and didn't even know that this Print Layout software is installed on my computer.

There is no resetter available at this time so a reuse of the chips is not possible, but yes - the reuse - accidentally - of a serial number is principally possible - the interface is just active between the chip on the cartridge and the printer - the computer can be offline all the time. It is...

I'm doing refill on my T2100 and use original Epson cartridges for it, I had leakage problems at the ink outlet with a 3rd party cart. But it is not easy to identify the right place where to drill a hole into the cart, I removed a pretty strong foil from one side of the cart and got this...

It's nice to hear from you that the printer arrived and you got it installed and working. The printer just comes with the T40Cx cartridges - the small ones with 25 ml - or even less as start up cartridges. I don't know if I mentioned it before - there is an optional simple paper tray available...

That's indeed a pretty strange effect you are showing here, please provide some more details - operating system, image size, type of connection - WLAN or USB or ? What type of paper are you using ? Does the effect show up on another paper as well ? Did you change driver settings ? Since when do...

I would take some more drastic measure to the problem , disconnect the printheads and block the connections and put some pressure on the ink supply system from whereever the inks are coming - tanks ? - and see if and where a leak becomes apparent. And test the printhead assembly separately that way.

I'm not familiar with the type of printing you are doing, but there are a few questions nevertheless. Isn't there any service from the manufacturer of this type of printer ? How long does the problem exist - since the time of installation or later ? Air bubbles are a problem for any type of...

Some of these Chinese maint. boxes didn't give contact originally - there are apparently some mech. tolerances; I tested them when they arrived and wiggled them around a bit, some need a piece of folded paper pushed into a small gap between the cart and the printer case. It's easy to claim...

Coinkdistributions states about the cleaning agent they use for printhead cleaning We use a tech grade Epson specific 2-pyrrolidone printhead cleaning solution that we custom manufacture to meet our specific needs. This may be an additive to other cleaning solutions...

,Apparently about all of the listed companies above claim to deliver the most UV density - that's quite interesting but does any test exist to support these claims ? I just remember claims by InkjetMall about their blackest black ever - it was just not much superior as claimed - some better...

It's all about colloid chemistry how pigments are formed from color molecules and how these colloid particles are kept afloat in the ink cartridges and bottles

I'm wondering why glycoles suddenly get that much attention, they have been part of the ink carrier base from the beginning, you can look up the ink ingredients in the safety data sheets https://www.epson.eu/en_EU/safety-data-sheets You may not find the colorant listed which is typically a...

Let me just add a tip to buy a waste ink box or two ahead of the time when the waste ink box reports full - no capacity left - , they are easily available via Aliexpress at affordable prices.

You can look up the product safety data sheets which are published by Canon and Epson , they will tell you the chemical composition to the level as it is required by law. The ink spread is less with pigment inks - the pigments spread less on paper than dye inks - the pigments are larger...

Let me respond to your questions as I can answer them based on my experience with the T2100. I'm using the sheet feeder just for A4 paper to print some internet stuff as a partial replacement of a desktop printer. But the driver does not limit you just to use copy paper - The driver gives you...

Look to the yellow ink in the reservoir tank for the 835 - dye inks are translucent - pigment inks are opaque - like milk - yellow milk in this case

The track definition is getting much better now - what type and brand of inks are you using - a dye ink for the Artisan 835 and pigment inks for the P600 ? I would expect that you get would get a similar improvement if you would use a pigment black on the Artisan printer for a test . I don't...

Your last print shows the effect of the ink spread similar to what I got as well, the edge definition is not very good and you cannot really control the track width this way. I'm pretty sure you are better off with pigment inks. But printing such graphics is not the prime job of CMYK printers...
