the mp830 enjoyed a wild price ride. It was down to $150 on buy.com last month, now it's bumped back up to $220. This model seems to be on the way out, but this is the older ip4300/5200 based AIO that has yet to be replaced. I believe the mx850 was the replacement. The mp610 has already...

inksupply.com offers pigment ink. I use it, it's pigmented ink. It's the same price as their dye ink. It floats at $115/gal. inkrefillstation.com offers it for $159 WJ1020. Image specalists offers WJ1020 that is compatible with a number of printers, including the old HP #45 cartridge and...

Well, I can't say I noticed the same problem on my friend's mp960. I didn't browse for the source images you used so I used my own. [source] http://www.pbase.com/igepanda/yucatan [scans] http://www.pbase.com/igepanda/mp960 Source image Costco cans of Kodak Gold 100 film. Camera is Pentax...

I'm not an expert on the 3800. In fact the last wide model of epson I owned was a 1520, and that hardly qualifies. http://people.csail.mit.edu/ericchan/dp/Epson3800/faq.html Near as I'm aware the max paper limit on the 3800 is 37.4 inches, just shy of a meter. QIMAGE does a trick and prints...

http://www.ddisoftware.com/qimage/qimagehlp/lbe.htm#6a http://www.ddisoftware.com It's not free. There is also turboprint for linux, which well isn't RIP, but it does support the 3800 to come degree. Also not free. Qimage does bring up an interesting idea. Two pages printed without a page...

I don't claim to have the answer, however these are likely possible solutions 1) Raster Image Processor software (RIP). 2) Linux (turboprint) 3) Linux gimp & gutenprint 4) Winows with cygwin and turboprint or gimp+gutenprint? http://www.cygwin.com/ or http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/...

Righto, I looked on the bottles and saw Sydney Metro 02 9972-9357 http://www.sydneymetro.com.au/canon_order.htm http://deewhy.com/ Expensive stuff AU$20/50ml (USD $13). They didn't say anything about oil based ink on their site.

Yes, companies like Xaar this is sort of their bag, solvent and oil based inks. They also require exhaust ports in order to prevent employees from geting fumigated. It should be interesting to see how these things stand the test of time. I have to admit I'd consider it if printhead life is...

Ah yes, the UK Epsons with Durabrite inks are Designated "D", vs us models designated "C". why the difference, I have no clue. It would make sense if there was a power supply issue. Canon models, at least the last few I owned sported 110~240V supplies. The Epson Stylus is their document...

http://store.apple.com/us/product/TN627LL/A?cid=AOS%2DUS%2DSHOP%2DFroogle $99 shipped for the ip4500. I've not seen a better deal on the ip4500 in a while.

[supplies are limited] Before I continue, buy.com no longer has the mx850 for $160 shipped. It's up to $200. The Canon e-store is up to $180. Amazon.com has it for $165 through buy.com plus free shipping. I'm going to wager rock bottom price on this unit at $165, as the non-network model the...

If you can provide a link to the source image I should be able to do a test print on a mp960 today on OEM ink and Canon PR-101 paper. I picked one up for a friend and I plan on visiting him. It's the the exact same model, but at least close. Unfortunately agfa is a manufacturer who makes a...

Most odd. The mp970 is a relativly new printer. Canon is pretty good about covering the printer under warranty, even if you're a month or two after after the warranty. To isolate whether or not this is a driver problem, for laughs you might want to print from either from flash memory or...

I doubt you'll get a better price. I have to admit I feel somewhat foolish buying a spare MP830 for $150 from buy.com, but I stand by my choice. It was a good deal lower in price than the MX850 at the time, and I specifically wanted a model with a head compatible with my ip5200 and other...

Ok, I'm going to presume you want networking, fax, and a sheet feeder. The MX series is their "office" series, as in they tend to have networking on board. It's a new designation, many of the MP models are going to be "office" models, as in have fax and perhaps a sheet feeder. The MP is...

Well, we are talking a $30 printer here. The main reasons to use OEM ink in a printer are 1) Hassle free usually 2) Archival 3) Less risk to the printer. Ultimately it's up to jtbassic who's presently experiencing some buyer's regrets over his purchase. I still say $30 for a floor model is a...

For the purpose of this post, I'm going to presume you want a network ready AIO printer. I think the workforce is using Durabrite pigment inks. These are quick drying and offer a benefit of being among the most archival inks on the market. There are damn good reasons to buy a Epson C...

Well, you tried and a new head is the value of a new printer. I don't know the UK, but there is craigslist in the UK. It may seem odd but I've given away free dead printers in past to others who claimed to need parts.

Well, keep in mind that the referb is a STELLAR deal. This was the $300 printer 6 months ago. You don't have to buy OEM ink, you can buy compatible cartridges, or refill with bulk ink...
