    How to remove PRO-1 printhead ?

    Thanks to Joe (jtoolman) and The Hat I indeed 100% revived my PRO-1. Your particular problem is that the ink has very likely dried up in the silicon tubes ! As your friend had removed the cartridges... These tubes run from the cartridges to the printhead. So now what to do ? Dismantle the...

    How to install an Epson printer on the network

    During the driver installation my Epson printer was not detected on the network (in Windows 10 x64). What one needs to do is: - Install EpsonNet Config (I found it in the Download section of my printer page). - Go to Configuration after selecting your printer (that is oddly detected here, but...

    American Inkjet systems AIS ultra wide gamut inks

    Hello, Did anyone try ultra wide gamut inks from American Inkjet Systems ? http://www.americaninkjetsystems2.com/ They produce inks for Epson printers, and some other wide format printers. I plan to refill the Epson 4900. I wonder if I can get very accurate colors with these inks, if I make...

    How to remove PRO-1 printhead ?

    Well I managed to unclog it 100% ! I saw that doing nozzle checks every couple days, without doing anything else, showed gradual improvement. So I soaked a paper towel with the pharmacist solution, and put it under the print head for hours (without removing the print head from the printer)...

    Pro 1 Chip Update... O’ No...

    @mikling This is the new inkset I believe, I bought it this summer from you. Here is a gamut comparison of your inks VS OEM. If I did print just photographs on glossy papers I guess that I'd use PrecisionColors inks for the price; but there is a bigger difference on plain paper (I use...

    How to remove PRO-1 printhead ?

    After leaving the print head overnight in Pharmacist's solution, there was no improvement. The mistake that I made, is that I should have had filled a SquEasyFill with Pharmacist's solution and injected it through the ink entry holes. Shaked and removed the liquids, and repeat till there's no...

    How to remove PRO-1 printhead ?

    Thank you very much to both ! You are the most prominent experts on printers :p By the way, one must close where the paper comes in and out on the printer, or the procedure is without effect. Before removing the printhead I did run a nozzle check between each deep cleaning in the driver, hope...

    Pro 1 Chip Update... O’ No...

    I bought these 3 years ago ! They are thicker than OEM ones, so it's a PITA to install them ! I gave up as I had trouble refilling the bag. If I find them I'll send them to you, but don't have much hope !

    How to remove PRO-1 printhead ?

    According to this page in French; it can only normally be made by Canon technicians, as the head/ink tubes system is under pressure: http://blog.eparts.fr/tete-impression-canon-qy6-0081/ Alright, but how to do it oneself ?

    How to remove PRO-1 printhead ?

    Hello, I didn't use my PRO-1 for 3 years, and now some colors are clogged, the worst being PBK. I tried to put some wet toilet paper soaked in the "pharmacist" solution (isopropyl alcohol 20%, ammonia 2%, distilled water), and position the printhead on top many hours, but it is still clogged...

    Please help ! Printer calibration disaster

    I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION ! I tried endless combinations but the problem actually came from i1Profiler, when you print the ColorChecker proof ! When you print the test charts you have to unactivate of course color management, and I thought that at the end of profiling, when you print the...

    Please help ! Printer calibration disaster

    @Ink stained Fingers Great idea about GamutVision thanks, that's interesting software. @The Hat Thank you very much, I won't go see a shrink then ! You are right on, yes ultimately I will use a profile made with glossy paper, and I will adjust the paper media / ink intensity settings. But I do...
