I have a Canon Pro-100S. That's a "professional" printer, is it not? It better be, that's why I bought it. Because it's called a 'Pro'. Have Canon pulled a fast one on me? Please tell me my printer is professional.

Hi guys, With the recommendations to "print often" I have been doing so regardless. The printer is only a few months old, but the past few days I have noticed that it is starting to "creek" when printing, exactly the same way my ix6550 did after years of use. I also notice the exact black...

OK, you were right. Go on, "we told you so", or rather, "yes we know we are, we've doing this for literally decades and this is your first refill doing this, this isn't a conspiracy, we're not out to get you, we are on your side and want to help you, really, trust us!" I put 5 Carts in last...

Fascinating. Truly an awesome Printer, even with OctoInk 3rd Party Ink I was expecting to see a dulling of Color compared to the OEM Ink, but with my custom ColorMunki Profile and this luscious Ilford Silk Paper the Prints still have some pop to them. Thank you for explaining as such, have...

I think I will make a video of exactly what I witness. Typical scenario: I nsert 3 full refilled Ink Cartridges - take out the 3 they are replacing - 1 or 2 are warning Ink Low, the other is on its way there so replace now. Remaining Cartridges still showing full or, at least 3/4 full. No...

So the general consensus is when it is required to swap out an empty cart we should have a whole set ready to switch over in order to minimize Ink "wastage" due to what obvious SOUNDS like excessive purging when a new cart is inserted. Makes sense, the ix6550 used to drive me nuts, sounded like...

PeterBJ: "Also, when you said you were instructed to "fill to the top", just how far did you fill the reservoir side? I always leave at least 1/8" air space at the top. I block the air maze with tape, and block the outlet port, prior to filling, then after the cart is sufficiently filled, "...

I think I am going to need some of those plugs! Something happened inside that tupperware box with Isopryl Alcohol. The PVC's tackiness was all gooey and when I pushed down the Plug into one of the Carts within a few seconds you could see the Plug slowly rise out again on its own! Without added...

Yes sir, this is exactly how my plugs look like, I made sure the hole was clean and dry (used a Q-Tip as recommended) and it was the first time since taking Ball Plug out. Nevertheless I will always use tape after this. After what I have gathered it is either Air Pressure/Squeezing or...

Hmmm, maybe so maybe I am squeezing TOO hard when I push the Plug in and moreso applying the Insulating Tape as tightly as I can (because I noticed these Plugs (at least in my set-up) really aren't snug, I mean they are, but they just slip out as opposed to having to be pulled back out when...

This makes sense. Where I am at this time of year one minute it's cold, then we put the heating in and it becomes very warm, then there is condensation on the window so we open the window to try and make sure no mold starts up. Like The Hat says, don't overthink things, excuse the pun, go with...

Theoretically speaking of course, what [could] happen if I just used these carts. Like today. Would they flood the printer or would it actually help the cart release ink and clear out the air maze?

Okee dokee, thank you for your reply. A couple of questions… You mention the sponge was not dry enough. Correct (I guess?) All the Carts were freshly used OEM's, some still with a little Ink still in them, save switching them out individually. Does the sponge really need to be dry? I have read...

Ok so I took the orange clip off the Black and it started leaking from the Outlet, I thought "Oh no!" but it was only a few drops? Something with the air? (Like when you put a straw in a glass of water and plug the top of the straw with your finger and take the straw out the glass, no water...

OK guys, this is it. You ready?… So I have followed all procedures to the tee WITH you guys! I refilled all CLI-42 (and one CLI-8) successfully. Pro-100S by the way. Some carts have already been swapped out (OEM's for 3rd Parties). They rest, well how to store? I read someone on here...

Another unheard of (personally) web pagexbut it looks interesting… and recent, 2017! I have a legitimate paid for Windows 7 license (even though my computer came with 8.1), but nevertheless I do NOT accept Windows Updates. And that's the benefit of running 7, you still have the ability to do so...

It's been 18 months since I read up on it (I remember the date as it was when my daughter got her new laptop and it came with Windows 10 installed and we both wanted her to have 7, so I had motives right there) I can't remember the exact link, but just ran a quick "googol"...
