    Need printer recommendations...I need to buy a new printer

    I have been generally satisfied with the Canon G70x0 printer. It's not perfect, but it's capable and very economical to run since we print ~700 pages/month. It's probably not the greatest photo printer if that's a big criterion, but its a solid Multi-Function with cheap ink. note: The user...

    Supertank printers with replaceable ink absorbers?

    You are correct. I was referring to the ET-77xx producing better photos than the 27xx. I was attempting to state that the quality of the 27xx was sufficient for many users such as myself.

    Supertank printers with replaceable ink absorbers?

    Just a shame the ET-77xx is so expensive. Can probably purchase two ET-27xx printers and have a brand new replacement once the first waste tank gets full. Yeah it probably produces much better photos, but that's not a priority for many users.

    Canon CarePAK Plus extended warranty

    So I finally got an answer from a Canon rep on their USA Support forum. He says that this issue would be covered under the plan. I will be purchasing this in a week or two, once their USA website comes back online. It's been offline since Aug 4 due to a ransomware attack...

    Canon CarePAK Plus extended warranty

    Anyone have any experiences or opinions? I'm thinking of buying one for my new G7020. Canon says the warranty covers normal wear and tear, but I don't know if saturated waste ink pads are considered normal. As I understand it, Canon doesn't repair printers, they simply replace them. So I'm...

    Reset G2500 ink waste error

    Hello. Sadly I cannot help you, but would you mind sharing how long you have had the printer? I just got a G7020, and I'm curious when I should expect to encounter this error.

    Pigment vs Dye inks in Canon megatank printer

    Thanks. I will check those links out. Wouldn't this be a problem with any 3rd-party cartridge/ciss, though?

    Pigment vs Dye inks in Canon megatank printer

    Thanks. I will stick with the OEM black (since I get 3 bottles with the printer anyway, lol). I found a vendor that sells the 3-color combo pack without the black, so I may try that depending on how much of a yield I get from the OEM colors. I actually do quite a bit of printing, or actually my...

    Pigment vs Dye inks in Canon megatank printer

    About to get a new G7020 printer which comes with ink, but I'll be wanting to purchase some replacement ink to keep on-hand. Since Canon's G-series are basically consumer-grade printers with built-in CISS, I figured this was the appropriate section to post this question. While the OEM ink...

    Canon G series. "megatank" CISS printers

    I'm about to receive a Canon G7020 4-in-1 printer next week. If anyone is interested, I'd be happy to post my impressions here. Won't be doing much photo printing. I'm primarily trying to lower my ink costs since my schoolteacher wife prints A LOT of stuff. Also hoping that nozzle cleaning...

    Epson WF-3640 - Error Code 0x69

    Anyone know how to fix this? Tried googling for the answer, but all I could find were scam tech-support operations. After replacing an ink cartridge, I've gotten this message a few times. The printer display prompts me to restart, but the error just occurs again. It has something to do with the...

    Glad to have found this community.

    There's so much misleading information out there, it's very confusing even for me as an engineer and tech enthusiast. I've been lurking for just a few hours, but I'm extremely impressed by the knowledge of the senior/platinum members on this site. I'm even more impressed by how friendly and...
