Did some digging and it seems the L6570 manual does mention that there should be firmware available but I'd done a lot of digging around and can't, for the life of me, find any Epson site that has it. One site claims to offer it but it's actually just a bait site with a firmware version that's...

Disclaimer: I sell remanufactured OEM cartridges with pigment ink so I am by definition biased That aside, I looked up the cartridges sold by the Cartridge people and they look like the, frankly, bloody awful sponge in a box cr*p that we've seen in the past that uses the tech from non-pigment...

If it's anything like the Zebra G420d then you need to look up how to recalibrate the printer to the media it's using. For the Zebra it's a case of pressing and holding the button until you get a double flash then release but I'd expect your printer has a different process. This is one of those...

Can they? Haven't tried to physically open one of those bottles as yet so don't know if there's protective designs that make opening the bottles harder but don't see why not otherwise. The only caveat I'd add though is make sure your "old" ink isn't so old that it's developing biological growth...

As Borut has said, there's enough reports about the Grey that we're investigating whether our ink has not been filtered properly or if the bottling process has not been correctly completed (ie: bulk ink containers not properly mixed/agitated before rebottling) such that there's an over...

I'm actually going to disagree on this point but only in the sense that any air in the cartridge will be taking up space that should be taken up by the ink. So, if the cartridge is running close to what the chip thinks is empty, then there's a risk that the cartridge will run dry which is never...

Sounds like I need to do some more video content. I've found that there's a plethora of ways to use the flush clips (they don't make breakfast in bed though... Dangit! :hu ). Where they really come into their own is when you need to remove air, and when someone messed up and put the wrong ink...

Quite a lot to unpack in this thread from the last few days so I'll bullet point: 1. Get rid of the air in the cartridges. I'd strongly recommend using a flush clip (and syringe) to do so but note you will need to pull the whole lot (ink included) out of the cartridge then refill again with the...

The short answer is "I don't know" but I'd like to think that you would be fine so long as you didn't install any new drivers. The "don't know" part of it is not having any data on whether HP have been adding firmware updates to their driver updates or indeed to the Windows Update updates...

Putting out a request for anyone who might find themselves reading this and who has a Canon Megatank 6000 or 7000 series printer that is showing error code 1700 or anything that indicates the waste ink pads are full. I'm slowly working my way through different printer models with a view to...

Thanks for sharing that... Did some digging and it's possible to get the same tools using keywords "4 piece hook set".

Resurrecting this thread with a G6050 which I'm intending to document the process for fitting an external waste ink tank to and the reset process too if I can. Has anyone come any closer to figuring out how to reset these and which (if any) software version/tool is compatible? Any help...

Okay so this gets weird now... I've taken the arm back off (powered off obviously), turned everything upside down, etc... Rotated everything to their limits, etc... then put it all back together and assumed it was game over for now. Then I decided to make a video of the actual problem so I...

Ah... So, effectively the same as the timing strip and disks in inkjet printers then. Hmm... Any ideas how I get to them to clean them up. As things stand I've got no recourse for sending this back and I have all the tools I'll likely need, so I can take this thing apart to clean it if needed?

Hmm... On the advice of the ArgyllCMS mailing list I downloaded and installed iProfiler 1.8.3 as it still allows you to measure your profile charts without needing a license. So I've installed everything and it's all recognised and passing iDiagnostic tests but when I attempt to use the...

Just as a different approach using the same cleaning solution; A passive head clean approach is worth considering as the first port of call: http://www.octoink.co.uk/_video/_clean/Passive-head-clean ... and whatever you do with the active approach (as shown in the video in @Ink stained Fingers...

Can I ask how you achieved this? I'm aware the baseplate does look reasonably "abused" But I can't say it looks weak so much... That said, I've not used the thing properly yet so that assessment may change. That would be very useful... I have an i1Pro1

Yeah, that's great for reading the targets once they've been printed but not for converting the target TI2 information into something that can be read by ColorPort. Long story short it seems likely I'll need to import the patches into ColorPort, organise them in there and then generate the...

Urgh.. :\ Ah well... Looks like I'm going on one of my adventures then :pop That's the bit I think I'm going to struggle with here... but I've made some inroads... It turns out the best way to get your profile targets reordering correctly is to go a bit mad in excel with lots of data imports...

And here we hit our first hurdle... I have a profile target that I have quite a few pending target prints waiting to be read using this new i1IO but while I get that I need to use the ColorPort app to do this, I can't work out how to convert the ti2 target to the format needed by ColorPort. So...
