I'm planning to buy one, but the funny thing I discovered is this: Digital cameras take awesome pictures, but passable video --- but the video can be hours and hours long. Video cameras (the ones with a disc) can take awesome videos, but the stills are very low quality --- but the video...

First baby? Congratulations (for the new addition to the family) and good luck (for all those sleepless nights)! Glad to see you're still well and tired :D

Will you be willing to ship to the Philippines? How much will that shipping cost? Just give me a working printhead and I'll be happy.

Um, electrical problem?

Thanks!

I do have an MP 198 (the newest member of the 190 series), and I must say that while I am NOT happy with the ink carts it is using (mostly because of the small carts and having to refill often --- I print out books and magazines and bind them so I need a heavy-duty printer and the 198 isn't it)...

Inktec is a cheaper alternative? Can you point me to the sellers of Inktec and Hobbicolors? I know I can google it, but I prefer that I land on the same page as you guys.

Since I'm planning to get me a new printer, I was wondering what are the best ink options out there. I guess it's time to step up to the plate and stop buying local, "universal" inks. Since the new printer will be coming with a 5-tank hybrid system (2 black tanks, 1 for dye, 1 for pigment)...

Like I said, speed and ppm aren't really important for me; a couple of pages-per-minute difference is fine. It's not like one can print 10ppm and the other 1ppm. So again, what does the 4680 have for it that would justify it over a 3680? Again, auto-duplex print is not a big deal for me, I've...

I'm fed up with my MP198. Yes, and it's been just a few months after I bought it. I'm glad for its awesome scanner, but the printer functions are my priority and after my 3300, I know that this just doesn't make the grade. Now my dealer has 3680s and 4680s on stock, and they don't sell any of...

Aside from the two missing bars on the top of the nozzle check, what other nozzles are clogged?

Unfortunately, I don't have spare carts on hand to try out. This tanks has been refilled, oh, about 6 times so far, so it should be far from going out. And the clog isn't my problem, it's the alignment. Oh how I miss my 3300.

I have a MP-198 printer with PG-40/CL-41 carts. I like to do printhead alignment after every-other refill, and I noticed that things are getting out-of-whack again. I'm concerned, could this be another "electrical problem" that plagued my iP3300? Here are the pics: 1. Page 1 - notice on the...

Hmmm... that bottom puller again. What happens if I suck all the ink out of the printhead? Won't that damage it in any way? I know you can suck ink back into it via the bottom puller, but I'm thinking more along the lines of ink not flowing into a few nozzles, thereby "ruining" the printhead.

No, just used it on a PG-40 cart. Is there any way to unclog the cart? Or should I just throw it away?

If so, how do I fix it?

I have 2 PG-40 carts that I tried refilling with a new set of black inks that my supplier had in stock. Both clogged up soon after refilling; I figure that as soon as the new ink made its way into the printhead, things got nasty. Now, no amount of cleaning/deep cleaning/soaking head on wet...

There was an iPTool for my old printer that resets the EEPROM or something so that every time I insert a new cart, it shows it as new, as well as get rid of the waste tank full message. Does anyone know of a program like this for the MP198 printer? I did a google search and all I can find...

I'm being given the runaround. I want to buy a Canon 3300 printhead and the only way to do this seems to be to send my printer to the service center, have some dweeb look it over, THEN tell me I need a new printhead. I can't buy it from the dealer, I can't buy it from the service center unless...

Just tried taking the sponge out, washing it, drying it, then putting it back onto the cart with a fresh set of ink... still no good. It IS printing a lot more now, but I estimate about 55% of the nozzles aren't firing just yet. Any suggestions on how to pull out the ink?
