Oh gee, I wasn't aware that carts had to actually be opened before you install them. If you want to be an ass, do it elsewhere.

The problem appears to be the cart as suggested. Monday, I removed the carts, did several cleaning cycles to remove ink from the prinhead and then installed the carts in the following manner. I rotated all carts to the right. Cyan went to the magenta posistion, Magenta went to the yellow...

Ok you've totally confused me now. In your #19 post, I got the idea that you're talking about the 4 oval/round shaped seals directly below each cart inside the printhead. I re-read qwertydudes #2 post and that's not what he's talking about. He's talking about a rubber seal over in the parkpad...

The carts in the printer right now are a brand new full set of oem Cannon's. The original set of oems' that were in the printer are the ones I pulled and refilled. The yellow cart that got contaminated was a brand new yellow oem Cannon. I believe the contamination problem was caused by the...

I put the the printhead back in on the 8th, reinstalled the carts and did a nozzle check. As before, perfect test. Did some printing, turned the printer off for the night. Turned it back on yesterday, did a nozzle check and as before, no Magenta. Did a head cleaning cycle, did another nozzle...

Quote"You have already done many tests of leaving the printer off overnight after the printer was working and found it not working the next day. Why don't you try leaving it on this time?" If I put it all back together and it works fine and I leave it on all night and it still works fine, that...

Yep, bci-6 is correct. I had cli on the brain as I was looking up the details on the other two unused printers I have. I let the printhead soak all last night in windex. I'm removing it now and rinsing it in distilled water. Will let it set and dry for the next two days. I will then put...

Hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th (for those here in the US of course). Got back to business Sat. I put the print head back in and began testing the purge unit with windex. Initially the black emptied fine but the color side seemed to have a bit of a problem and only pulled about half of...

The 'put to my lips and blow through' to see if there was free air movement was almost a gimme. They work fine. I have a question about notch orientation as you mentioned. You say it goes in rear left side. Is that to the actual rear of the printer? Since the printer is backwards to me, that...

Sorry for the delay in response. I got up yesterday morning to the sound of water running in my master bath. Needless to say I spent a great deal of the day and a whole lot of money getting the broken pipe fixed. I cleaned the purge area including the park pad last night. There was a lot of...

I have an 1p3000 that I've had for some time. It sat unused for several months and when I turned it back on, the black wasn't printing properly. I did a nozzle check and the results showed missing pattern in the black. All colors looked good. I did a couple of cleanings to no avail and...
