Thanks Wayne
I can print 10 and more prints in black and white (using the pigment black) with no problem and in good quality even though I M still missing some lines (missing lines vary with each test page) in a printer test page (all dye colors have a good test page)
Yes I think I still have...
After filling the purge blocks with ammonia based solution and did a head cleaning cycle the black purge block is still full of the solution.
Removed the tiny purge blocks and cleaned them. Did a head cleaning and there was plenty of ink on them. Does it mean that the purge unit is sucking ink...
update:
printer started printing black (pigment) ink again 2 hours after I injected ammonium into a cartridge and did 5 to 10 deep cleaning (the print test patterrn is almost complete only missing one or 2 lines)

Hi All,
after 2 years of refilling I am experiencing the first head clog (pigment black) of my MP980 printer, not even a tiny line is printed on the test page (all other colors are printing fine)
I left head some 3 weeks ago in good working order
I tried cleaning it with a piece of tissue in...
yes, I tried that and it works pretty well
the problem is that when I print from PS (using MP980 printer profiles) I get poor results compared to when I print same test image through easy photoprint pro photoshop plugin (canon) but the PS plugin is missing the 6x8 :(
I am testing many profiles...
thanks for your replies
using profiles I am very close (printing from photpshop) to the results of easy photoprint pro plugin
does anyone know what settings does this plugin uses ? .... I have profiles switched off from this plugin and using photo color as print mode. the results look perfect...
Thanks for your reply.
The problem is that I don't have the "Custom" option in the page size of the printer driver
EDIT
I am trying to print borderless on 6 x 8 photo paper
Hi all,
Is it possible to add custom paper sizes to MP980 (Canon) printer ?
I purchased some 6 x 8 photo paper but the size is not in the list when printing from Photo Shop or Canon Easy photoprint pro
Thanks !!
I have filled and resetted (blue resetter) OEM 520/1 Carts
after some time I inspected the carts and were half full but the Ink monitor still shows them as full
Q: is this normal please ?
I am also looking for a manual/instructions on how to replace waste ink pads of the MP980 . . These instructions are not mentioned in the service manual
did you try reinstalling the drivers ? or maybe try the latest driver for win 7
I cannot think of any thing else but it's definitly a driver problem and not a windows 7 issue
