So my pro-1 has been sitting dormant for a long while now, because of nozzle clogging... I've tried oem cartridges, after market, refilling... The photo gray constantly gave streaky results... Everything else was perfect... But as a photographer, if you can't shade properly, what's the point of...
I'm wondering if it has something to do with the latest firmware... When I try to run the cleaning cycle, the message on the screen says "The ink level in the following tank(s) is too low to perform a cleaning operation. If you continue to print, they may run out." then it lists every tank that...
One other question... I thought once you turned off the ink monitoring (by holding the resume button for 5 sec...) that it was supposed to stop asking you? However, my printer keeps asking me to push the button with EVERY print?
What gives!!! GRRRR...
Ok... so the used cartridges came today... put one in, and it was still showing low ink warning on the ones I replaced (I just swapped out the chips, figuring that the printer would recognize the chip as new, and start it's countdown from there)... Are these chips different from other...

I would love to PM you, if I could find the spot to do so... (that is to say, I need one, but how do I contact you directly)
And, I was looking at it for the potential of resetting the printer to factory defaults (i.e. reset the ink counter so that it reads my cartridges as new again on my...
"With this method and the Canon service tool,"...
I've heard speak of this "Canon service tool" (aka support tool...) but I can't seem to locate it ANYWHERE!?
Is this like the yeti, or the unicorn? A mythical creature only heard about in tales told 'round the campfire? And, only findable if...
This is one of those "long time listener, first time caller" situations...
I've browsed these forums for answers for years, but I've come across a question i can't seem to find an answer to without asking it directly! :-)
I'm a pharmacist turned food photographer... You can drool over my...
