    I couldn't remove the electronics , they are attached to the ribbon cable ;-( Just don't boil them. Use the recommended procedures instead. Lesson learned for everyone here. Danford1

    Anyone use ABCINK.COM for ink?

    Thank you. That is Exactly what I wanted to know. I'll buy ink and or replacement cartridges already filled from the suppliers listed. I'll avoid ABCINK. Thanks again. Danford1

    Pictures of the inside of a print head from an i960.

    I recently had print head problems on my Canon i960 printer. It was clogged real bad and my clean out attempts with water and 409 didn't work. I ended up buying a used head from eBay. That one didn't work well either but I was able to clean it with hot tap water and it works great now. I tried...

    Is my print head dead? Canon i960

    I have a Canon i960. From reviews of this printer and for as many happy people that have it, I can't find much help info on it :-( A search only comes up with a few posts and tons of info on other printers, not the i960. Sooooooo, I decided to start my own thread. I have spent many days so far...

    LD cartriges for Canon i960 printer

    I bought some LD Brand cartidges for my i960 printer from Amazon, item BCI6PM. I'm new so I can't post a link to them :-( I noticed the portion that goes into the print head, isn't round. It is oval shaped. The other compatible carts I used had round portions that went around the nozzle screens...
