There is already a new version 1.11 available, the software does not appear to be stable yet.

I wish everybody on this forum a Happy New Year - and perfect prints with all your profiles............

I'll let you know as soon as I'll decide between an Epson or Canon 24 inch printer; but that will take a while

I'm now running the Epson T3100X since a year, prints are very good and I didn't encounter any problems so far; I used about 2 - 3 130 ml refills varying by color. I did not encounter problems or functional issues beyond those which got discussed in this thread before. And I have an answer to...

Please print a nozzle check, scan it and post the image here

@beebill I'm glad you found that difference with the prints , that's one of several hidden traps when doing profiling - but isn't that part of the fun with profiling ?

It is the job of a profile to compensate ink variations and to get the print output closer together as much as different gamuts would allow. It was a promise by precisioncolors that the inks are as close as possible to the OEM inks so that a different profile would not be needed. If this is the...

I'm getting scared - what will happen if I do ?

I wouldn't expect some ink to be perfect, but suiting the requirements and I would not expect technical problems with the inks in discussion, the Canon GX... series printers and printers like the TC20/21 work with very similar droplet sizes, so the physics to get the ink droplet onto the paper...

The 'Canon TC20/21 - same with the Epson TC3100(X) - are not advertised as photo printers at all, so there is no reason for Canon to run such printer with inks from higher end photo pinters with more colors. There are other parameters for an ink running for office type applications - and not...

I could assume that there are some hidden parameters in a PDF file which may cause the print this way or another way - e.g. is a text with embedded images may store the complete document in an image format and would not separate images and text, and it could be that a hidden default icc profile...

It's as well with borderless printing on copy paper that the printer switches from the pigment black to the dye black ink, this prevents the build-up of pigment residue from overprint at the borders of the paper.

You have quite a range of inks you can use, but you would need to run some tests - profiles to verify all your assumptions.

all colors of the GI-56 inks for the GX.... series printers are pigment inks https://www.druckerchannel.de/device_info.php?ID=6227&t=canon_maxify_gx6550#verbrauchsmaterialien_reichweite

I don't see a reason why Canon would hide Lucia inks and not telling you the benifits of that ink: I tather would assume that the TC-21 inks PFI-050 are closer in properties to the GI-56 135ml bottled inks of the GX series office oriented printers. But it's up to you to use other inks in a...

The 8700 uses ink cartridges, and Epson does not recommend anything different to these cartridges - specifically no refill with any ink and not with the 107 inks for and Ecotankprinter. It's always your decision which ink you select and use for refill, and the 107 inks are most likely a good...

I did 1 part yellow and 2 parts magenta for a red on a P400 printer, and 2 parts yellow and 1 part magenta for an orange which got me pretty close to the original inks. More punch ? no - whatever it means - mixing cmy together will create a partial gray + some color, but you cannot improve...

No, you cannot make such general statements that a pigment ink always delivers a better black, it's always a matter of the ink and paper - the coating - combination how that performs together. The ET-7750 with the 105 black was designed as a multi-purpose printer with good performance - a...

I would not replace the 106 dye black with the 105 pigment black (matte) unless you print 100% just on matte papers, copy papers and alike; there is only one black ink channel on your XP-15000. I did not test fading of pigment inks.

You probably have air in the tubes, connect a tube to the damper and pull ink via the damper outlet with a syringe and re-insert the damper(s) into the carriage.
