I have a Pixma Pro 9000 MII and I print 400 brochures borderless, two sides, so around 800 prints letter format a year, next to that some private pictures, that would make it a 1000 prints. I was wondering how long it will take for the pads to be full, and if it is easy to clean or replace these...

Don't forget the wind....each time the door opens.....:cool:

Be careful not to compare your own usage of photos with some other ( very experienced ) people here in the forum. I think there are different kind of people, with different kind of needs: If you are a professional photographer, who makes and sells family pictures at a price of $100.00 each...

Yes, I have the same experience with my Pro 9000 Mark II I bought a box full of vergins on Ebay, purged them, and sold what I did not need on Ebay. I have kept 2 spare sets, but when it comes to it, I always refill immidiately when the printer warns me. I refill with the German methode, it goes...

Probably this is what you are looking for ?

The question was not what YOU liked, or who sells what and their service.... This forum starts to be more and more an organized advertisement for specific members. You could have answered with your last sentence only: " I have not tested this ink, so cant help you there." I am not an...

I can make you a custom printer profile for free, based on the ink and paper you use now, or you want to use in the future, just email me.

I live in Canada, but I got them from Hobbicolors as well......cheap, fast and reliable.

Perhaps you should ask Hobbicolors, that is more logical to me.

any pictures to share.....? :lol:

I ordered my needles on Sept 18 at Octoinkjet, and I am still waiting......speaking about cursing.....

If you try a new coffee brand, do you clean the pot when there is old coffee in it ?

I still have CLI-8 OEM empty carts, already purged, and OEM chips on them, just email me.

You are absolutely right leo88, I had chosen Hobbicolors for the same reasons as you, and it doesn't mean that some other inks are bad as well. I went for Hobbicolors for my Canon after reading a lot of topics on the ( excellent ) forum, but I guess a favor for ink or printer is as with...

Now it is more clear to me, thought the difference was only a few 's I live in Canada, no duties on stuff from US, no Post Office handling fees. The UW-8 set ( all colors ) cost me including shipping only 32.06 ( didn't want you to feel more bad though.....) And I buy stuff on Ebay ONLY from...

THAT must have been a lot of " girls talk " that you are back so early,bet The Hat is only half way with his printer :lol:

What are we talking about now.......using third party ink, compared with OEM ink is WAAAAAAAY cheaper, wherever you buy your ink in the UK, or Hobbicolors in the USA I wonder what the price difference, for the same amount of ink, INCLUDING shipping, is......between buying in the USA or in the...

Smile, I have still a few emty OEM CLI-8 carts if you are interested, original ones with the orig chip on them, but NOT the red and green one. You coud opt for taking 2 other color carts and get the chips ( red and green ) for them. At least you have the original cart, nothing better. Email me...

The isopropyl is simply rubbing alcohol, it is on the shelf on many stores, I had it at Walmart 70% The propylene glycol I got at the pharmacy, had to ask for it at the counter. They only have it in bulk ( in Qubec/Canada ), but sold me some if I came back with an empty bottle. Lol, lucky for me...

The BIG advantage of purging the way I did is, that I clean the outlet sponge as well, instead of using it as a filter. I had some residue in some carts, and they left through the hole I drilled, and which I afterwards closed with hot glue. So I only use the kitchen towel to dry the carts, AFTER...
