Getting the hang of this, my previous reply was to Stratman, I clicked Quote, but not Reply. No problem Hat if this is the case then so be it, I will trash the ix6550 as this is why I now have a Pro-100S in the first place. It's just that since getting it I decided not to abuse it if...

Wow Stratman, thanks for such an in-depth reply. I will try and comply with your dedication to helping with this matter by answering any questions which I may have glanced over. First off the double band on the Nozzle Check print is just that I use the same sheet of basic plain paper to run...

So I use the bath tub to try and unclog the printhead. I am again trying. Using ONLY Windex this time. Notice when I use the syringe not much yellow comes out, in fact it slightly pushes magenta and cyan? By comparison through the magenta channel magenta comes out "clean"…

Not refilling cartridges, 3rd-party from RefreshCartridges dot co dot uk. They have served me well for the past 10 months or so, having gone through about 5 or 6 batches (I know it sounds a lot, before I came on here and my knowledge increased I knew not of 'Deep Head Cleaning' emptying out half...

It doesn't rain, it pours they say... One minute (months in fact) everything is great, happily printing away. The next minute I am intently researching Refilling Ink for the first time on a new Printer (which in itself has two options - 'Top Fill' and 'German Method' whilst at the exact same...

Please read my other thread I just created, I seem to have inadvertently kicked in the Yellow Gello, on my CLI-525 ix6550, not by the 3rd Party Inks I have been using for almost a year, but with water alone through unclogging the Cyan channel with was blocked and was the reason I looked into...

Hi again, this will put a lot into context, and possibly expand on this infamous dreaded 'Yellow Jello' phenomenom… What prompted me to get the Pro-100S last week was my now 4 year old Pixma ix6550 started showing a reddish (sometimes greenish depending on the print) cast after some intense...

Thank you Hat… what a great idea, never thought of that, yet seems so obvious now you suggest it. Practice on a "dummy", trial run, build up muscle-memory, etc. Especially as I am so OCD (which can be a good thing when it comes to projects like this)… Would Martin happen to read this so as...

P.S. Do forgive my error, I made a mistake. Upon posting this, under Recent, a post is entitled 'Canon Pro 100 for $59', not $99 like I initially stated... Wait for it… Arrrrrrrgggggghhhhhh!!!! OK, sorry about that. I am calm now. I need to be if I am about to pursue pin-point precision of...

Thank you so much for your replies. I have been lurking, studying intently on this new found wondrously innovative hobby I plan to take up. I decided to purchase another set of OEM Carts, just to be safe and then… Went ahead and ordered OctoInk's Refill Kit. So just to make sure, you guys know I...

Hi there, this is my first post. I have just recently bought a new Canon Pro 100S. Before that I used the Pixma ix6550 (And before that Epson R1700 I think it was) For the past 4 years on the Pixma I have been using 3rd party ink from RefreshCartridges co uk. They have worked well, but now I...
