my point at #7 was exactly not too overfill as you don't want to cause oversaturation. Otherwise why did I mentioned the need to use finger, thumb or whatever to cover up the vent/air inlet hole to stop or reduce the rate at which sponge absorb the ink.
You need to allow first a couple of ml of...
You should not place the modeling clay over the vent/air inlet hole so soon when you refill.
Remember that the printer uses ink from the sponge first until certain level, before the printer start to use ink from the ink chamber. So there is certain depletion of ink from the sponge.
The...
The 5 printheads you mentioned is used printhead and not refurbished. The fact that you have ink stained underneath and on top of the filter is that these are used printhead either from buyer who returned those printhead or they unclog printhead themselve and perform a test print and resell...
Hi I never sells anything off ebay. I am more of a buyer and user so not too sure about the seller side.
But is there a way to tell the Ebay that the buyer did not pay and have Ebay revert the commission back to you?
I recalled when I buy stuff at Ebay some listing require immediate payment...
I had never received printhead that is from Canon Direct or printhead inside brand new sealed printer where I dragged home from retail store that has clear protective liquid. They all came as slightly thicker bluish liquid. And no sign of any ink stain anywhere on the printhead.
The fact that...
Hi Smile, pls do not get refurbished printhead from China. The protective liquid that these refurbished printhead from china is a clear liquid and not the same as the brand new one from canon directly which is a thicker bluish protective liquid. You will have 90% chances of getting one that is...
Hi jimbo123, what ink where you using for the Pigment cart. It look quite clear that the absorber sponge did not absorb that particular pigment waste ink. You see the sponge thicken at the center but failed to spread through from the center of sponge as it accumulate.
I am interested in getting the black plug and caps from rjettek but they have a minimum order of US$30. Anyone here who is going to buy from something from rjettek soon? And if I could combined my order with you?
Black Plug...
what he meant is ink residue not protective lubricating solution in the printhead. That is as if it has been used.
Brand new Canon printhead has this protective lubricating solution and it's a form of blue liquid and not colorless liquid like some found from refurbished canon printhead.
Hi, there is no ink residue for brand new Epson printer.
I am not too sure where your local Office Max source the printhead from.
By this is my experience. I had ever bought Epson printhead from chinese seller who claimed to be totally new. But in fact when I received they were refurnished...
ink-solutions, while a possibility could be with the ink, but could be likely to do with your paper and the way how your printout is stored. A lot of paper made by China 3rd party manufacturer is more susceptible to fading. Why not just get a pack of original paper from the Epson to test whether...
Hi Needing some help.
Here where I am I can't purchase the spare parts (like waste ink absorber and other spare parts etc) to fix/replace some parts inside the printer.
I wonder if anyone here in US that could either help me to purchase the parts from Canon or just assist to help ship the item...
monochrome for printing in black only.
Not too sure about color laser printing. You may want to do a research or ask around to see which model suit your needs.
You tried out the method in the thread. To replace back the ink cartridge after refill, you do not need to remove the printhead. Just remove the cartridges itself, refill and put it back.
Unless have intention of cleaning the printhead externally or installing a new printhead or resitting the...
Hi I am sorry to tell you. Your printhead is faulty. You need to get a replacement printhead.
But what did you do. Did you remove the printhead to clean it externally?
Remove your cartridges and inspect to see to see if there is any cross contamination.
Yellow is the easier to see for cross contamination. Magenta and cyan is harder to see if cross contamination (slightest contamination can affect the output color). For Magenta and cyan, wick the cartridge...
