Yeah, the latter so mostly 10 pages at one time in a month. Sometimes, it could even go a few months without any printing. I'm just tired of paying for overpriced printing services when it's time for me to print. Could I get away with the ink drying up issue with ink tank printers if I print a...

I need an all-in-one printer (scanner, copier, printer). From my research, I've narrowed down my brand choices to just either Brother or Epson. For occasional use, should I be looking for a laser printer? Going back to my printing habits over the years, I've only needed to print in black but I...

Ok. This is just so frustrating. I should've not bought a used one from ebay. It just cost me a lot including the shipping from USA to the Philippines.

If I bring this to a Canon repair center, will they need installed OEM ink cartridges?

Ok. So that means that the printer destroyed those 2 print heads?

Ok. What could've caused the logic board being damaged? I don't see why it would be damaged if the timing strip was the only component that was cleaned, right?

Did that and here's what I have with the old print head: Nothing really changed.

Very unlikely too but how do I check?

I agree. The only problem with my old print head is the PGBK and the other colors were perfect. Now both of these print heads have identical pin-striping deficits. I am actually retracing everything and the only I could think of is alcohol going into the optical eye or something but that is...

Sorry about that. I did follow your advice of cleaning the timing strip first and see if it does something while using the old print head because I soaked the new print head in Windex for two days. To be clear, the last nozzle check I printed was the new print head but it had the same exact...

Oh no no, this is not because of soaking the print head. I was using the old print head when I cleaned the timing strip. I printed a nozzle check pattern before and immediately after I was done cleaning the timing strip. The before was perfect with the colors but the after presented the same...

Straman, I don't what happened here :( Immediately after cleaning the timing strip (which is very easy to do), my problem got worse: What is wrong with this? :(

Anybody has one spare part for sale?

There were no instructions that came with the print head, unfortunately. I thought it was just safe to let it dry for a couple of hours before using it as others have always recommended before to not install a wet print head. I'm actually printing a nozzle check pattern in portrait mode as it...

Here's what I have this time: I think the M bar is fixed now and the BK improved a little bit. The weird thing I have now is why do I have a dull-colored Y bar?! I also noticed that dull-colored Y bar on one of my nozzle check print test pages yesterday but I thought it was just ink settling...
