I'm accustomed to transparent cartridge sides, but lately cartridges have opaque sides making identification difficult. Plus, some of these carts come from three different 3rd parties and identifies the contents with only a code such as TO79520 in very fine print. I only know now what that code...

Thanks for your reply, Ink Stained. I appreciated it! I want to move the carriage back and forth to facilitate head cleaning. Pulling the plug is awkward with my setup. The plug outlet is behind and below my table. Regards, Paul

I used to free up my cartridge carriage on my 1430 by using the buttons in a certain way. I didn't need to pull the power cord. Now I've forgotten how I did that. Can someone help me recall that technique?

Thanks, The Hat, that's a new adhesive for me. Paul

My Nikkor 55-105 has a very narrow metallic strip around the lens that's beginning to come unstuck ... only about an inch for now. Part of me says it's ok to intentionally pull it loose the rest of the way. After all it appears to be primarily decorative. An alternative would be to find the...

I appreciated Peter's post showing the various parameters in Danish. It finally rang a bell for me, where have I seen that before? It doesn't recall for me a feature in Windows 11 but it does ring a bell in the scanner (Epson 4490) software I have. I had thought that software came with Windows...

Thanks, Peter, that's kind of what I expected but I don't know Danish very well.... ! Would you be so kind as to give me the English translations for red arrows 1 and 2? Thank you! I know I could print out that diagram and use that as a guide but let's face it I'm just plain lazy. There, I...

Thanks, R, in fact I had a copy of VueScan some time ago. It got to be a bit too much for my brain! Maybe it's time to try it again. Paul

My scanner is an Epson 4490 and it meets my needs. Thanks for the suggestions, however! Paul

(sorry to be so late!) Thank you, but I already have a scanner, an Epson 4490. When I'm in the Auto mode I can't get at the speed to adjust it. It's in a slow mode and I want a faster mode for non-critical results. Thank you.

Aha! Make it all "e" and that makes it easy to spell. Thanks, The Hat! Now in all seriousness... can any one tell me a good place to go for help with scanners? TIA, Paul

The title here is "Everything Else"... would that include scanners? Maybe I got lucky and ended up at THE place to ask about some problems with scanners. Here I find the proper use of irreverance! At least here they could tell me the proper spelling of "irreverance". Here's hoping...

Well, it may look like the printout was interrupted intentionally. I didn't realize there was still something in the queue. I was simply trying to switch printers - turned out to not be simple! Your second paragraph contains the notion that the Printer Control Language is different for each...

I have two printers, #1 is an Epson 1430 and #2 is an HP Deskjet 932 (my old workhorse!). They take turns using a USB cable to the computer and hence to their respective printer. When a workflow starts with the Epson connected via the USB, the printer puts out and the fonts behave as they...

Looks we have a case of crossed messages - but it turns out to be timely! Does anyone have a paper/ink combination that works for them? It would be a black without the blue. Not crazy about excess red either.

Actually it turns out that I do have a spectrometer, it's the previous version of Spyder. A friend of mine gave it to me, he was on a current version. But I confess that I haven't figured out how to use it. Think this would work for me? I'm into simplicity as much as possible. I like the EZink...

I recently bought a Canon iP8720 and have made some very satisfying b/w prints. I'm using EZink cartridges because that's what the printer came with. For the present, am using Epson Premium Presentation Paper Matt and Red River Aurora Art Natural. Both papers are 2 sided. The Epson paper is very...

All is well. I went ahead with my cartridge swapping, slow blink and all. So the Magenta now has a new cart and the other five went ahead with a swapping even though they had some ink in them. The Magenta cart was totally empty and so that cart had a total refill. I'm using EZink carts, this...

Thank you. A further question: This was in the instructions: "Remove the ink tank with the lamp flashing fast." Do I need to change the procedure if the lamp is flashing slow? Paul
