    German Durchstich refill method for Canon carts with pictures

    I used this method for the first time today, and it was really easy and much cleaner and less error prone than my previous top filling episode. luckily for me I got the right length needles in my Redsetter package. There is one thing I totally don't agree with though... The refill hole being...

    Canon Chip Resetter Reports

    I think it is well worth it, since it keeps the ink level monitoring working (and in theory your warranty). It is a small price to pay for something that can save you from the expense of a clogged printhead, and it can save you time worrying about and manually checking ink levels.

    Canon Chip Resetter Reports

    I highly doubt data corruption would be an issue. EEPROM/FLASH chips only allow themselves to be re-programmed if the programming voltage is high enough.

    Canon prinhead interchangability IP4500<->MP600R

    Thanks for that websnail. I will buy one anyway, just for the cartridges (and so will get a ip4500 printer basically for free!). I guess it just goes to show how much of a rip off canon cartridges are. That is the reason I have ordered a chip "redsetter" and will be refilling my own, but I...

    Canon prinhead interchangability IP4500<->MP600R

    Hello fellow inkjet users. Please go easy on me since it is my first post here on this very useful forum. I have a Canon MP600R and I need to buy a spare set of cartridges. I was looking in my local retailer today, and noticed that for the (retail) price of the 5 cartridges, I could actually...
