yeah, I know.
But what I'm asking - is that really matters, there's vacuum in the chamber, no? So even if you'll inject air bubble in the middle of the sponge, it'll get sucked out immediately, without any threat to anything. I'm repeating myself, but maybe now my question will be more...
If they are recognized in 1800 etc that means that they're ok (just run a test to make sure). MP210 is mean in a way that when you'll install a refill the machine stops (sometimes displays crap like E13 or sth like that), and basically waits for your confirmation that you want it to use those...
Yup, it's the same thing with Epsons. Since they introduced T0711 range we've stopped refilling them. It took us about 12 months before we've got resetter for CLI-8's, it might be the same or longer (or never) before reset option will become available on those 520etc.
And as much as I like BCI-6...
Like in the subject.
I'm using Eco Color 500 (I think it's German design manufactured in Brasil)
Right now, we're wasting about 3ml per each color of ink every time we're changing lines. I could simply reverse flow for about six seconds, then change the line and prime it back so I'll waste like...
Well, obviously, with BK there's no need for top removal, but the CL need it's top taken off (cross-contamination can occur). It's actually very simple, try removing tops from Lexmark 16/17 etc and then we'll talk (thank goodness that HP 49 is an extinct type now). Sharp stanley knife and you're...
That's a tough one.
Haven't tried the German way yet, and I'm quite reluctant to leave the filling hole open. That said, I'd probably try to refill another PG5BK by the book and see if it helps. Bottom of the printhead can be (and with Canons very often is) mucky, it shouldn't affect the...
Well, if the cartridge cannot be recognized, there is a possibility of an electrical failure, so test that, and most likely you'll have to recycle wasted cart. Colors are malfunctioning much more often than blacks in my experience. If it's one off than it's fine, if it happens too often you...
That might be true, but in my opinion it has nothing to do with what people do with their printers. I had (still have, to some extent) the same problem with literally all colour HP's. I peeked into the broken 57 I've had and magenta sponge is slightly smaller than other sponges, also there's of...
I have to admit, this is my menace (well, that and Samsung M40, but that can be solved by solutions). It always comes to be done "on the spot", so I have no time to apply any cleaning solutions and such. The thing is, with BC-02 even VERY old and dried cartridges can be usually restored, but...
Yup, in my opinion only the quality and service can win in the end. Times are changing, people are getting more and more aware of what's going on in their lives, and while say 10 years ago some wannabe-refillers could get away with amateur approach and lucky charms, now people will just go and...
Well, I guess I might as well say hello :)
It's going to be 3 years soon since I work as an inkjet refiller. Looks like I mutated enough to be interested in my work even after work (I'm not the boss, you see xP). I'm basically fed up with guessing what I'm about to do (because boss saw someone...
