cjm,
Thanks for your post.
I would also like to use Profile Prism to profile my printer, but I am just learning about scanners.

Inky,
Thanks for looking at the post and your comments.
I have prints comparing OEM and BulkInkJetCarts colors and skin colors using Test.jpg in www.photo-i.co.uk from the iP8500 review. I am getting scans and will post them as soon as I can. I will also post a scanned face print of a model...

Thanks for looking at the post. The graph was a Microsoft Excel Worksheet or Workbook and I did not know how to get it to this site, so I downloaded the graph as a photo. If you want the worksheet instead of the photo please tell me how to do it.

the PM cart. The upper ~75% of the Sponge was lighter than initially. The fill hole was
securely sealed with tape that could...
Grandad,
I weighed the new BCI-6PM carts from OEM and BulkInkJetCarts in the Post Office. The scale was checked with a 1.00 oz calibration weight. I removed the wrapping plastic and clips from both carts. Both carts weighed 1.00 oz each.
I estimated the total ink volume by measuring the tank...
Grandad,
Thanks for commenting on my post. The BulkInkjet carts are new. The clips appear to be reuseable.
I compared the tank dimensions and ink levels of a new BCI-6PM OEM cart and a BulkInkJetCarts cart:
