Hello! Newbie.

[The Hat]

Understood, but happens if canon starts using all inks like this? Or introduces inks like this in pro-100 ? You never know what canon thinks, and they do read these forums.

I reckon Canon should spend more time trying to resolve the overheating problem in their large print heads than trying to screw the refillers.

IF you can read this then put that in your case file, Canon !

Yes I totally agree, but I doubt is more expensive for canon to make the Y ink then say Magenta. I'm afraid they did not design the Yellow to be a problematic for refillers, but if they read this then somebody at Canon will get a raise for proposing all inks to have simmilar formulations like Yellow

There are customs third pary carts, like Rusian NANO no sponges in those, so perhaps not all is lost.

Even if they created boobytrap inks just like the yellow to foil us evil refillers, all you'd have to do is use cli42 chips on cli-8 flushed carts and you'd fine.

There are much better "traps" that either EPSON or CANON could enable. They will never be ink related I am quite sure.
