    Printing close to edge of paper canon pixma ip4000?

    HOLY Moses! It works! I misunderstood what the printer driver was telling me when it says "you have selected borderless printing... document to be printed is slightly enlarged so that it extends off the edge of the paper" I took that to mean that it would basically blow up the entire cover to...

    Printing close to edge of paper canon pixma ip4000?

    Hello, I recently got an ip4000. I think it is a great printer for the small amount they ask for it ($99 After Rebate). However, I am trying to print full DVD case covers on regular 8 1/2 x 11" matte photo paper. I thought trhat since this printer does borderless prints up to 8 1/2 x 11" (a...

    Canon s530d

    Thanks for your replies guys. Appreciate your time. One thing I may try is to buy a set of new cartridges for it and see if it works with them. It actually printed for awhile when I got it home, but the cartridges were almost all empty. a couple had nothing in the tanks, just the sponge was wet...

    Canon s530d

    Hi, Just want an opinion from you canon enthusiasts. I picked up a Canon S530D printer at a garage sale for $5. Only reason I purchased it is because I wanted a new printer to replace my HP and it was in like new shape. I figured if there was something wrong with it, I may be able to fix it...

    Anyone have experience with 2for1imaging?

    well, I hope the ink is good, I just ordered 20 cartridges for my new pixma ip4000 (4 of each of the 5 colors). If the ink works well, that would be awesome, since it is so darn cheap :) This Pixma is one sweet machine. Leaps and bounds above my HP PSC 1210, and these ink tanks are great. It is...

    Anyone have experience with 2for1imaging?

    I guess no one has had experience with 2for1imaging? Just an update, I have been looking online for reviews and ratings of the seller, and they seem to get rave reviews for their products and services. Many people have even specifically said they purchased the canon compatible cartridges and...

    Which 'disposable' cartridges last the longest?

    Thanks again for your reply and time grandad! Very much appreciated. I am actually not using number 58 cartridge, though I can see why you may think that since I said I was printing photo quality. I am just using a black #56 and tri-color #57. I never bothered to purchase a #58 because the...

    Which 'disposable' cartridges last the longest?

    Thanks for the reply Grandad35. I tried the sling method and it did not bring back the print quality of the blue. Everything prints except blue. I would not be surprised if I did wear it out since I printed about 35-40 full page photoquality DVD case covers with the paper type set to photo, all...

    suggested replacement for my psc 1210?

    Thanks very much for the feedback fotofreek, much appreciated. Good find on the amazon price, a bit better than the circuit city price by about $10 after $20 rebate. $92.99 with amazon, and $99.99 with CC. The one reason I would go with circuit city is 1- I like that I can order it online and...

    Anyone have experience with 2for1imaging?

    Just wondering if anyone has had any experience using the replacement canon inktank compatibles from 2for1imaging?http://store.yahoo.com/2for1imaging/index.html $1.39 seems to be the cheapest price I have seen for a compatible cartridge. If they are any good, I may end up buying 4 of each of the...

    Which 'disposable' cartridges last the longest?

    Hi, Just a general question for anyone who has an opinion to throw in. Of the cartridges with the 'disposable' printhead built in, which last the most number of refills. The reason I ask is because I just purchased a new HP 57 color cartridge for my PSC 1210 5 days ago. I only refilled it 3...

    suggested replacement for my psc 1210?

    Thanks for the reply fotofreek... I think i will look into a canon pixma as I like the idea that it seems able to print direct to the edge of the page like most epson's. This comes in very handy when printing full-size dvd case covers as they will easily fit on a standard 8 1/2 x 11" sheet, but...

    suggested replacement for my psc 1210?

    Hi all, new user here. Glad I found this forum, as I have been messing around with refilling my hp psc 1210 56 and 57 carts for some time. The problem is I am tired of the hp cartridge design with the printhead built into the cartridge. In a way it is good since it basically extends the life of...
