Hi, not to worry, I've open these types of cartridges before, I'd like to try to mod it (I have experience at hardware modding (carbon fiber, sealant things, Dremel rotary tool, digital calipers), I'm a kind of maker on the side (but nothing in the level of Adam Savage of Mythbusters). Is the...

Hi, thanks for the information. I guess there's a region lock, even though the cartridges and printer are physically the same, the 210 and 211 as you've mentioned are for the US version of the MP287 called MP280 (changing the region to US using the 3400 resetter didn't work). I did ask the...

Hello PrinterKnowledge friends. How do you get out of this two light blinking and number 1 on the display mode on the Canon MP287? I've been trying to figure out how to get it out of this mode if it's a mode for weeks to months now (now I have to ask for help and take a video of what's it...

Hi, thanks for the link. That some kind of code that was printed, if you scan that, will it bring the EEPROM to its factory programming, bringing the MP280 to its original state? Where's the one for JPN or japan (asia)?

Hi, thanks, the Service Tools looks like this, the version 1 has an EEPROM clear button version 3 has none. Usually this Service Tool would be clickable (meaning the buttons won't be grayed out) if you set your printer to service mode first but I guess during the CISS conversion years ago I set...

Thanks, so we're planning of buying a new one a Brother All-in-One that has built-in continuous but don't have the time budget for it at the moment (heavy, unique challenges with budgets int he household). I think when I used the Canon Service Tool for the CISS conversion of the MP280, it now...

Hi, when I use the CISS cartridges it's fine (those are both genuine too but I drilled the holes for the CISS tubes), the CISS cartridges, I actually converted them to just be refillable whereby I made 3 silicon plugs for the colored cartridge and 1 for the black cartridge, there are no more...

Hello printer friends, I want to go back the converted MP280 from CISS to the way it was before but because the Service Tool was used to CISS, my two genuine, unmodified Canon CL-210 and CL-211XL which is black and colored cartridges respectively can't be recognized (ERROR E14) inspite of havine...

Thanks. I could adjust from the usual to extreme solutions, by the way, I have a ultrasonic cleaner (just regular, small one for small parts & fountain pens, not the industrial one). Would the vibration damage the heads (and the nozzles in it)? As maybe last or second to last resort, If it's...

Thanks for the tip. How many days was your longest, also how many times did you replace the towel (maybe how many hours was the interval). I can force patience when it's needed :-D into my system. If you can recommend the solution you used to dissolve the ink, that'd be great. Thanks again.

So blessed by bestfriend Almighty God & bestfriend Mother Mary, plus, technology.

Hello, I have a Canon MP287. Both the color and black cartridges, some of it's nozzles are closed (has lines in the test print). I've tried deep cleaning about 5 to 9 times straight but it's still the same and other methods like sucking using a suction device. I did buy a cleaning solution...
