I have noticed that when buying Canon cartridges lately from my wholesaler, the cost has gone up by 25%-40% in Canada. This has been reflected even in the big chain stores, where Canon cartridges are much more expensive than last year. NO wonder..they are losing money AND profits. Is it the...

I need some help and opinions from the experts here. My always - trustworthy i9900 might be on the way out. I had a bad paper jam last night which I cannot clear. Not only that, every print lately has long black lines on the bottom of every print, and I do not have the technical savvy or tools...

Every once in a while while using a BCI-3 or CLI-8 cartridge, I will get text printing that looks like Italics, not normal print. Not every line does this, just an occasional line here and there on the page, which makes it even more confusing. I also get the odd (sometimes very odd) customers...

:)Supposedly, this will be on the market late this year. The fastest, least expensive to operate, highest resolution/everyday inkjet printer yet.:cool: Stay tuned.... http://www.networkworld.com/video/?bcpid=1343712625&bclid=6971717001&bctid=6941327001

Quite by accident, I have found a new way of unclogging 2 stubborn Canon printheads after trying every method mentioned here without success. Too bad I discovered this AFTER buying replacement printheads from Canon, one for an i-860, the other an ip3000. I took one of the "dead" printheads from...

I've just been given 84 new, boxed Genuine Canon BCI-3 colour cartridges. While I use several printers with the bci-6 series, Neither I or any of my customers have any models using BCI-3s. I am finding conflicting information as to whether it is possible to use Genuine BCI-3 colour cartridges...

I need to lubricate my ip3000 printers, one of which have begun to make squeaking sounds while printing. Does anyone know the correct grease to use for this, where to buy it, and the right way to go about doing it? Thanks

I'm not the most technical guy here, and I need some advice. My wonderful i9900 printer still prints great photos, but on the bottom of the prints there are 8-10 black lines. Cleaning the rollers from the top did not work. I will need to disassemble the printer in order to better access the...

On eBay Canada, a reputable photo store is offering 6-brand new Canon i-960s at a great price. This is a superb photo printer with a 6-ink system which uses the BCI-6 series of cartridges, and is a great value. Auction #s are 120315697059 130262354709 and 350098270649...and I have...

http://damnprinter.com/ Found this link while browsing yesterday. While it is becoming outdated, if you will do some digging, there are many useful tidbits of information and links on this site. Those of you who are interested in Canon call errors, or who have problems enabling their cd...

Looks like Canon's is still playing cat-and-mouse with the new series of cartridges. ..probably changed the chip so that the redsetter and other resetters will not work with this new series. It would be handy to know if by any small chance, if the new cli-221s and pgi-220s can be reset. If...

Just received this e-mail. It contains information about a new lower cost Canon resetter. I don't know anything about this Canadian , Vancouver-based company, but here is the info if anyone wants to check it out...

By accident found this download today. There are many useful tools on this site. I used this download to reset ink levels immediately after refilling his ip2200. Worked well, so may be useful to others as well..and may work in other models using the PG-40 and CL-41 carts too...

Has anyone heard of this method from Germany?? Check out ebay auction #120172511355 Here is a description "From now on, you can print with inexpensive, compatible ink cartridges A chip in the cartridge is no longer necessary! The RKS-Chip-Extender system can be quickly and easily clipped...

I have an odd question. A local mining company has asked me for a colour printer that will print 17 x 11 prints, and which has inkjet inks that won't run. Miners will take this underground where there are wet conditions. He would rather not laminate for the expense. I presume Epson's inks would...

Someone posted here last week that Atlantic Inkjet will be carrying the PGI-5 and CLI-8 compatibles that have a reset chip. Well, we've been waiting a year for these, and they now are in stock. I've just put in an order and should receive it in a week or so, and will try them out. The price is...

Seeing is believing. I posted an articke here about a month ago about the new Memjet print technology from Australia, which should be available in a year or so. A printer that claims to print 60ppm in colour, and actually does??? Have a look at these videos...and the company...

Well, things may be getting better soon for us printaholics, and relief is on the way. Recharger Magazine, a technical mag for the printer industry, has just put out a press release about the Silverbrook Memjet technology. Here is an excerpt. "The new technology prints full color images at 60...

I have 2 customers - one has an ip 1600, the other has an ip 2200. The fellow with the ip 2200 just got his error after printing (he claims) around 1500 pages...mostly text. I find it hard to believe that this has happened so soon, unless Canon's planned obsolescence time is getting shorter and...
