Buy American like Hobbicolors or Formulabs.

I wouldn't use any other cart besides Canon made ones. Then refill with good ink like Hobbicolor.

Make sure to print photos using the top feeder and not the bottom feeder. The u-turn at the bottom can cause problems.

What refill ink is available for these new carts? Looking for quality refill ink...

The recommended way to unclog print head is to run deep cleaning once or twice and then leave the printer for 24-48 hours and hope the wet ink will break down the dried ink in the nozzle. This is the slow safe method.

http://www.posteriza.com Found a freeware poster maker...not quite as slick as Pro Poster but it is Vista capable so it doesn't turn off the theme like pro poster would.

1. The Canon website has the specs for all the models. 2. Hobbicolors sold on eBay is good. Also Formulabs sold here: http://www.alotofthings.com/viartshop/products.php?category_id=2

Don't do any of those things...simply leave the printer plugged in and turned on and you shouldn't have any problems with clogging. I've gone 6 months without printing and still printed a photograph flawlessly. I assume you guys are using good ink like Canon's or Hobbicolors.

The HP D7560 is looking pretty good suddenly since Canon is getting so greedy.

The Canon scanners will recognize the Canon printer and allow you to print right to it if I recall rightly.

The old canons were so nice. Just fill it up and it would show full again.

The carts are smaller: 9ml vs 13ml and 19ml vs 26ml I don't think it has much to do with cleaning cycles.

I somewhat fixed proposter, I had to use compatibility mode to turn off the vista features. I hate the vista theme being turned off though.
