    Did Ink Ruin My printer?

    How do I purge the magenta cartridge? I saw they have a magenta purge one and I done that but that was before the yellow went back in and it was good. Like I really can't get purging ever day I done it so many times now that I am just wasting so much ink. The cartridge was probably opened for...

    Did Ink Ruin My printer?

    I am kinda confused. Like first this is the for Epson but I guess your refering to the first method where you keep printing out that image 5 times. I don't see how this will fix my problem though since maybe/probably misunderstand how the cleaning thing works. I thought this gets rid of all the...

    Did Ink Ruin My printer?

    I don't see any vent. Is it covered? Like I just see the 2 holes I made and the label. I did a nozzle check to print out the pattern and I compared it to yesterdays. Basically you can see the differences. I going to print out a nozzle check right now one with no deep clean(so that would be...

    Did Ink Ruin My printer?

    Well I just did a clean everything looks good and normal now I am going to wait about a hour to 2 hours and print out the same picture then to see if the colors are still the same. I figure by a hour to 2 hours ink will have leaked out by then if it is leaking. If it still leaks I I don't know...

    Did Ink Ruin My printer?

    The reason for him have those 2 holes is so that you can flush out the old ink in the sponge with new ink. I am not sure why they leave one air hole open but I thought that had to be done. I was just looking at my cartridges I noticed under the yellow that there was some ink on the ring...

    Did Ink Ruin My printer?

    Well I was told to make 3 holes. 2 air holes and one over the tank that you put a screw to cover up. As how I understood I was to cover one of the air holes up closest to the screw. After I took up the tape off the spout where the ink comes out no ink came out after filling so I thought it...

    Ball plug lost in Tank ok?

    Hi I was trying to refill my carts(cannon bci-6). I must have banged to hard and the ball went into the tank(when I should have banged then used another tool to remove it). Did I screw up and have to throw away the cart?

    How long can a sealed cartridge last?

    Yes I am using the BCI-6 canon carts. Is it hard to do purging? When you say unsealing the fill hole are you talking about the area where you made the hold and then flipping it around and seeing if it drips?

    Hi I have bought a refill kit but before I bought that I bought a 3 pack of genuine ink since 2 colors where running out. However yellow has finally put a message up stating that it is almost out of ink(like a month or 2). I still have not decided if I am going to try to clean my cartridges...

    Help me find a good refill ink

    Hmm I don't think it is worth it for me to buy from them first I am not sure if they ship to Canada. Second if they do it probably pretty high since that looks like a uk site. third with shipping and conversion it probably be cheaper to just buy genuine carts and get the ink with it since just...
