    Canon i9900

    The Canon i9900 has gone the way of the DoDo bird. It's no longer listed on the Canon USA website. They are still available from retail sites, so if there is anyone out there in Cyber land that wants one you should get one while they are still available. There has been a lot of speculation...

    Canon MP780 printing Banners

    Canon has limited the length of the paper you can select for a few years now. Their reasoning is that any longer print would burn out the print head. There has been many posts in other forums about the print length, there doesn't seem to be any work arounds.

    Scanning to omnipage using the mp750

    In Omni Page Pro 14 you have to go to tools, options, scanner and reconfigure the scanner. I'm not sure that OP14 supports that model of all in one. It should because it is supposed to use the twain driver that came with the scanner.

    Inkjet Goodies Bacterial Glop

    I didn't take any pictures, it completely slipped my mind. The stuff was stringy, about 1/4 to 3/4 inch long and about 1/32 inch wide give or take. As I said I strained it with a hobby paint funnel with a very fine mesh. Then I used a coffee filter to filter the ink. I haven't refilled any...
