I've never had that problem - isn't ink water based?

Pins 1 & 6 are complimentary outputs and only one is high at any time. The chip can sink 16mA but only source 0.4mA. So the buzzer to pin6 is OK, but the LED needs to be connected to 6, not 1. I cannot see a 5V supply in the 4200 manual and I think the controller may run off 3.3V. I think it...

No, you are not in the wrong forum. But you should know that this forum is worldwide and covers different countries with different time zones. You should allow at least 24hours for everyone to see your posting and have had the opportunity to reply. If it's of any help you can download the user...

Here's one for the UK for about 38. I bought one for an IP4000 from here recently - good service. http://www.markett.co.uk/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&keyword=ip3000

An input current is that taken by the printer from the mains electricity and used to power it. An output current would be generated by the machine to power something external to it - but printers cannot generate power.

If you Google for 'epson c40 driver' you will have the choice of about 45000 links. Here is just one: http://www.epson.co.in/epson/drivers/driver_download.htm?mode=2&productModel=1 Downloaded drivers are invariably self-installing.

I assume you mean input currents - not outputs. Do not be mislead by maximum currents that may be given on power supplies. The Canon specifications for the MP600 give 17W consumption when copying and only 1.5W when in standby. 1.5W is peanuts of power by any standards and is less than your TV...

At least half of the topics on this forum deal with clogged print heads. Why not use the 'search' facility to find what you want?

You don't say where you live, but in the UK you take a faulty unit back to the dealer you purchased it from - not to the manufacturer - for an exchange or full refund. That's the law.

Is that a typo? 45MHz is not ultrasonic - it's in the RF bands.

Yes, I got mine from the Ebay site. Delivery was very quick and I am well pleased with it. My previous kit was from a UK supplier about 18 months ago. That worked well until recently when I had problems with the magenta ink. It started to develop jelly-like particles in it so I ditched the lot...

Here are some suppliers. I have used the first two with excellent results. http://www.choicestationery.co.uk/index.html http://www.nd-ink.co.uk http://happyprinter.co.uk/catalog/ As you do a lot of printing, it would be cheaper still to refill your self. I just bought a Hobbicolors refill kit...

I think your comment about the ink sticking to the side of the ink chamber says a lot about the problem. I always refilled using ink from a supplier in Lancashire. After about 18 months use I had a magenta blockage that would not clear. I ended up with a replacement head but after a very short...

Canon could always argue that the optical ink monitor on the ip4200 is not used, and they left it in the design after changing from the ip4000, in case production of their chipped carts was not ready in time. In that case they would not be removing a facility. You would have to empty the ink...

I was thinking for anyone considering making a ready-made kit available, a monostable and tone generator would need discrete components in addition to an IC. But the microcontroller would do all the functions in software, so saving components and assembly time. Of course, for a one-off home...

ghwellsjr, Thinking a bit more about this concept, there is a small 8pin microcontroller the PIC 12C508A that would do this task with one hand tied behind its back. I am retired now otherwise I would be making a DIY kit for this. The PIC chip retails at about $2 for one-off quantities and...

Pharmacist. Sorry, I'm on Tiscali and they have problems with emails at the moment. So I cannot send - only receive. Contact you when everything is OK again.

The coupler is certainly there on the 4200. I have a copy of the service manual which Mikling kindly sent me and it's shown there. I don't know about the 4300 or others. I doubt if a different driver from another printer would work. I think the best way of making connections would be with an...

Hi Pharmacist, A most interesting posting and my comments are these. I think the Canon coding to their chipped cartridges is not uncrackable it is just that cracking the code would be a time consuming exercise. Canon realised that, and if they can keep it under wraps for a reasonable time...
