    OCP K3 ink set: the secret/solution is in the ...magenta !!!

    update after a year: It took rather a lot of prints until the old OCP Magenta ink was flushed out. Later (after new profiling :-) ) I have good results and a much better even gloss on my prints. So thanks for the hint of swapping the OCP Magentas for OEM Magentas!!! Currently I'm think about...

    R3000 - strange paper jam allert

    no in my opinion it is no paper jam. If I pull out the paper it has o damage or dents. If I reuse the very same paper with the epson printing tool it works. There is also no format warning.

    R2400 / ink occasionally leaks puddles onto prints

    On my R2400 I had similar print results. The reason were not the refillable cartridges but a clogged tubing to the waste ink tank. So the ink stood on the pads instead of beeing pumped off. Then the Printhead was wetted by the small ink sea on the pad and dropped that on the paper. Just have a...

    Easy unclogging of epson printhead.

    I also use a windows cleaner, I think brand doesn't matter. If this fails I would mix pharmacist's cleaning solution with ammonia: http://www.nifty-stuff.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=5992

    OCP K3 ink set

    Just for Information: I mailed OCP when they can offer inks for the R3000. They stated that other things have higher priority at the moment and that they won't offer inks for the Epson R3000 "in near futur".

    1st installment of R3000 Refillable carts video posted by Injectcarts

    Do I have to use the original Epson cartridges to initialise the printer or could this be done with the refillable cartridges. If I could sell the sealed original epson cartridges this would probably pay me a set of ink and refillable cartridges.
