google your problem, specifying the make and model of the printer. On my HP mono laser printer I've used a "cleaning" page that is described in the documentation when there is a repetitive artifact on the prints. The problem, however, has not been smudges. It is repeating lines or text. Much...

@turbguy - Great description of your journey through 3D photography!

Are you using a digital stereo camera? As I recall, there is also a technique for using a non-stereo camera with a tripod mount that permits the camera to move a measured amount to the side for the second shot. This simulates the two images that your eyes would see separately that are fused...

good advice, The Hat, as usual! The printer in question was not destined for storage but was to be maintained with periodic nozzle checks and cleaning cycles to keep the print head healthy until the printer was needed for regular use. I stupidly lost track of it and neglected it for over a...

Here's my experience with an IP 4300 yesterday. I bought this used printer for $40 over a year ago - primarily for the OEM ink carts in it plus another set that the seller had in reserve. When I brought it home I checked the nozzle printout and it was perfect. Testing it with plain paper text...

I was first able to view this most famous and beautiful inscrutable smile in spring, 1961. As I recall, the only barrier was a velvet rope line just feet from the painting. Again in spring, 1966, my recollection was that the view was unimpeded by a fixed rail or bullet-proof glass. Fortunately...

Absolutely necessary to investigate it in the flesh(-colored oils).

@Smudger sayeth -" I made this picture of some woman I found on the Internet. Contains 'blur', though. It shows the dark, enigmatic beauty of the plastic printer case, contrasted against the clearly moving, wonderful highlights of the printer carriage." Methinks (not to be confused with...

Precision Colors stocks IS inks. They are identified as such on the containers' labels. When inks of different manufacturers are part of a particular ink set he will let customers know they are not IS inks.

I had never heard the full version of Waltzing Matilda, nor had I heard The Green Fields of France. Very stirring anti-war songs and sung by the fantastic Liam Clancy whom I had not heard before either. In the US there are several singers who have done anti-war songs that are memorable - Pete...

Thanks to 3dogs and The Hat for bringing to our attention the commemoration of the slaughter at Gallipoli. I was not aware of this disaster until seeing the movie, Gallipoli, in 1981. 3dogs post and the Guardian article provided more information to expand my knowledge of this horrible event...

I appreciate your not taking credit for someone else's picture! Nonetheless, thanks for posting this beautiful photo.

Beautiful picture, CakeHole!!!!!!

Good clean design, CakeHole! If we are to change the header, this is better than the previous choices in my opinion.

Ah so desuka! Another voice for "simple". A fellow adherent to the philosophy that '"less is more." While my favorite photographic medium is B/W, I feel that color does suit the forum. Although I still prefer the current heading, I'd agree with Smudger that #1 is the best of those under...

I happen to like the simplicity of the present header. Call me simple!

Karen - all inkjet printers use ink to keep the printhead from clogging. Although Epsons seem to have the reputation for using more ink than some, I can't confirm this and it may just be anecdotal. Depends on what you mean by using it on occasion. If any inkjet printer sits unused for long...

"Tricky" on two accounts - first, the deceptive packaging for the setup cart. Second, 7 ml. of ink - considerably less than the bci-6 carts I started with 11 years ago that, as I recall, have 13 ml. of ink. At least the nominal prototype of the "sell the sucker the starter cheap and then hit...

I don't know if it has anything to do with the problem, but I'd also do a printhead alignment. Then run a cleaning cycle or two to be sure there is ink in the recently cleaned printhead before running another nozzle test.

To be clear, then --- is it the degree of post-processing and the deviation from what the original image presents that is of concern? I am not criticizing when I say that tweaking IS post-processing. If tweaking is a crime I stand convicted as charged.
