Thanks for that input... Interested as to why you're using a cleaning solution rather than a non-active ink base though. I'd have thought that a cleaning agent would have had unwelcome effects on the ink longevity, particularly with the pigment ink where it might cause flocculation but...

:fl *mutters incantations and sprinkles small amounts of OEM ink around to resurrect the long moribund thread to share its secrets in this earthly realm of 2022* :old Okay, so I've been looking at the whole Epson OEM inks 106 and 114's with a view to creating a Light Magenta and Light Cyan...

I had a thought... It might actually be that in the US, the laws regarding use of an OEM ink as part of a remanufactured product may be more problematic for remanufacturers than in say the EU. OEM's like to throw out the issue of "counterfeits" and may be able to block any such efforts better in...

Thanks for your summary @Ink stained Fingers ... It's interesting that there has been this disconnect by sales zone and I do wonder if the issue is that of differing chemical safety requirements in the EU (for example) compared to North America (as suggested by @ClarenceL). Does make a bit of a...

Took me a couple of seconds to get what you meant... Yeah, putting video content in the actual product pages is definitely a good idea but a technical hurdle I need to address as the store I use is out of date for embedding videos at the moment. Thanks... Appreciate the vote of confidence.

It's the old age... happens to us all... :hide Ah... Noted.. Classic example of assumption on my part. The actual kit we sell includes one syringe per colour but I took that for granted and didn't highlight it as a result. Those carts only have a max capacity of 20ml which I find to be a...

Thanks for the nudge... I'm keenly aware that it's an area that I've lacked the motivation to dig into when there's so ruddy much else to do, but yeah... I need to do the work across the board. First I need to learn P Good ole curiosity ;) I'll take that on board... I use a lapel mic to get a...

Put a couple more videos on the channel in the last 24 hours so if anyone is of a mind to comment on the newer format that'd be appreciated. I don't want to plug anything so feel free to send by PM if that's preferred.

I'd recommend trying a cheap set of compatible cartridges and try installing those to see if the printer recognises those first. If it does then the problem is your CIS chip setup... If the cartridges are all recognised right up until you install the last cartridge, then it's likely that some...

I've searched here in the UK and there's loads of the 20 sheets variant. From what I can see the 50 sheet pack has been discontinued which would explain problems finding it.

I was just going to say that it's well worth getting sample paper packs from suppliers and trying out the results with a test image that covers a lot of the colours and gradients you want to see in your images. I use online paper company myself (believe they're now owned by Permajet?) but I...

Actually you need to be a little careful with that as disposable diapers now often have a sort of granular material that forms a jell when mixed with fluid and it makes an unholy mess if you rip open a nappy/diaper (I speak from a parenting 'oh-dear-$deity-not-again!' POV here) so be careful...

I've been keeping an eye out for i1Pro related stuff and they are selling on eBay.co.uk for between £150 and £400 depending on condition and who's bidding.

I'm guessing the context to this post is that you've been looking at waste ink replacement pads for some Canon printers, correct? If so, I have a supplier for suitable material that we work with... I can't give away the supplier information but I can source it if you need some that is already...

Not as embarrassed as I feel... I've been putting off delving into a dead Pro-100 because I thought it was going to be a ruddy hellscape of confusion and plastic tabs... and waste ink stuff is kind of my area of expertise.. #fail. Thanks for sharing though...

Welcome to the throng... I'm a bit lax of late but this motley crew are pretty good company so enjoy... *wanders off humming Hotel California quietly*

Personally I think the main reason why such blanket statements need revisiting and reviewing is because what constituted a "dye" versus a "pigment" has changed enormously in the last 10+ years, particularly in the last 6 or so. Dye inks are no longer the sole domain of plant/bio' based...

*Psst...* try not to confuse the old folk with multiple printer models... They get themselves all worked up and we have to call the nurse for the sedatives... ;)

Given the sheer detail and level of research that must go into developing that level of understanding I'd guess he has limited time to spend schmoozing on third party sites. Of course I can't speak to his own priorities but time sure is at a premium.

I gave up with the X-rite software pretty much immediately as it crashed my PC (first time in forever) and the newest version won't even install due to corrupted files. If you're happy to play with ArgyllCMS though the tools work great.
