Well, after using an hp C4180 for about 6 years, I know that the Canon MP990 will be a real step up and one that is good enough for my needs for now and a good time in the future. We only have so many bands of color available on this planet and once we max out our capabilities with what we have...

Yes, paper can be expensive as well as ink cartridges. But, with my new refill kits and new mp990 refillable printer cartridges, I feel like I've hit the jackpot at Vegas. Also, I've found that for my printing needs buying paper from OK paper, which is a local supplier in the Dallas area...

To date I've bought two of these machines under their selling price for one machine, and I'm very happy with my purchase. Since I write "how to draw" books and sell them online, it is my intention to use these to the max for a high quality printing of my books. The books are mostly black and...

Thanks mikling for your input on this subject. I'm ordering my second MP990 today.

This happened today so who knows if they will or not, but they called me, I didn't call them so I'm guessing that they probably will. We'll see. If they don't I do know how to complain to all the interested parties which has been effective in the past.

Thanks to all for your valued help. I'm seriously thinking about taking your advice and purchasing a second MP990. Getting the OEM cartridges filled with ink and the replacement value of those is worth it, not to mention the advantages of having a back up and a way to diagnose problems. I'll...

guyg I'm in the Dallas area and I was wondering where you are buying your inks for your MP990? Am I understanding correctly for the MP990: the large black cartridge is pigment ink, and the smaller black, gray, yellow, magenta, & cyan are die based? If I am only to refill OEM carts can these...

Being new to all this, I do have some questions about ink. I just purchased a MP990 Canon all-in-one printer and have no idea which type of ink it uses or which type of ink I should purchase to refill the carts. Does it come with pigmented inks or dye based? And, when I purchase refill ink...

Redbrickman: Do you use the sharp or blunt needles and do you buy your ink from Octoink as well? If so, which ink do you use from them or, which ink do you use from your preferred source? Those bottles look like a really easy way to refill. Yes? Thanks for your help!!!

I'm curious to which chip resetter most of you are using to reset the 220/221 carts for mp990, the battery type, or the usb type? Here's a link to the usb type: http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Resetter-CLI-221-Cartridges-Printers/dp/B003WEGE2O Is this the one to use? I realize you have to buy a...

I think I only have one last question and that is if I order the 220/221 cartridges from ebay will I need a chip resetter? If so, where do you recommend that I get the chip resetter? Thanks to all for your help. I'm very appreciative.

Thanks, Ohata0. This is the info I needed and I think I'm going to order the refurb Canon MP990 today.

Thanks for your help. I will definitely look into the MP990 refurb. Since I'm so new to this where can I get info on the German method you speak of? That sounds very interesting.

Is there an inkjet printer that you would recommend that can print higher quality photos that the cartridges can be refilled? And, which refill kit do you recommend for really good quality printing? I just successfully refilled my cartridges for my HP C4180 and used Inktec refill kits. What is...
