I've had the dreaded B200 error twice recently on my MX925. I doubt if it's the cartridge, because each time it's stopped in the middle of a page with the paper stuck half out the exit slot. The display says to try switching off and on, and to contact the service centre. I've been able to pull...

Does anyone have auto bed levelling? I'm considering adding it to my Anet A8, but I'm not sure whether it's really worth the effort. It doesn't take me long to manually level before each print. Am I correct I'll still need to manually level the bed occasionally with auto bed levelling? To do...

My new printer kit finally arrived - only £115 so I'm not expecting too much. It's a Prusa i3 design. Build size 220x200x240mm. Everything in the kit was well labelled, and assembly was reasonably straightforward, because as well as the manufacturer's instructions there was a complete video of...

I looked at 3D printers quite a few years ago when there were a few guys locally building their own. At that time outside of the maker community no one had heard of 3D printing. Of course there were no commercial models available at that time. I was interested in other things and decided not to...

I am storing an MX925 for an indeterminate period. I plan to store the print head using Pharmacist's solution. The instructions are to condition the print head using deep cleaning. I've had the printer for a while and have executed a deep cleaning cycle more than once. I'm concerned about...

Any suggestions what is causing the fine double vertical lines in the PGBK grid in the attached nozzle check for a Canon MX925? Edit: the PDF I attached bears no resemblance to the file I uploaded, which does not have broken lines. I'll have to get a better image somehow. Better PDF attached...

A few years ago this thread gave me a lot of help which allowed me to resurrect my ip4600. Now my MX925 no longer prints yellow. I've tried most of what was suggested in the above thread: run several cleaning cycles, a deep cleaning cycle, checked the yellow appears to be purging OK, an initial...

I've just had error B200 on my MG5250. From what I've read, there's not much I can do about this - overheated print head and probably replace logic board also. However, there are some confusing features. When the printer was used this morning, the printer status showed all cartridges full. Now...

I have to replace a Canon iP4600 which has died. I've been refilling it (German method) for about 18 months. In 18 months I have never printed a photo. I really just want a printer that prints text and colour at a reasonable speed and quality with hardware duplex, and that can be refilled...

I have been refilling my iP4600 successfully for 18 months now. However, the printer has just developed a fault. When I switch on, the power light and the alarm light flash alternately ten times until there is a pause with the power light on, then the sequence repeats. The iP4600 manual says 10...

I will soon be refilling my original Canon CLI221 cartridges with Image Specialists ink for the first time. Currently the iP4600 ink monitor says there is about 25% ink left. Will there be any problem if the original Canon ink gets mixed with the Image Specialists ink? Would it be better to wait...

I've been trying unsuccessfully to repair my Canon ip4600 (). I have to decide what to do next and would welcome any suggestions. When I joined this forum, I had zero interest in repairing printers or refilling cartridges. I just wanted a printer that worked. But I've had two Canon printers...

I have had an ip4600 for 9 months, and have been using Inkrite compatibles. Recently the magenta cartridge has stopped printing. I've run deep cleaning and replaced the cartridge with a new one, with no improvement. Should I try cleaning the printhead next, or what? I'm based in the UK and am...
