    Epson XP-8700 smears troubleshooting

    Thanks for the reply. The nozzle check was perfect. the problem came from the paper. i switched from the Lidl one to an HP Premium Plus Photo Paper i had laying around and the problem is gone. too bad the hp is 20 times more expensive than the lidl !!

    Saving a canon pro 10 printer, one day at a time.

    Thanks for those valuables informations ! oddly enough i don't even enjoy printing that much. i simply enjoy watching these machines at works and understanding what's going on. I salvaged enough Canon genuine ink from a Pro-1 printer to feed 2 set of PGI-72, it'll do for a bit. Once the potty is...

    Saving a canon pro 10 printer, one day at a time.

    I just want to. It's both to keep the "waste tank" clean (canon should be hanged for handling waste ink like that !) and to monitor how the printer waste it's ink. I'll also put one on a pro-1 and try to revive it but i have to flush the printhead and having 150ml of ink down the drain makes me...

    You can strap a pro-300 or 310 printhead into a pro-10 or pro-10s ? that's would be fairly amazing

    Best inks for Canon Pixma Pro 10S

    i don't think those were concerned. it was cheaper ones. Maybe Sypders ? Anyway it's kind of a mess as ColorMunki seems to became Calibrite or X-rite. Quite expensive stuff even on second hand market (one for 180€ nearby). i'll ask my company if we could buy one. We have LED walls and huge...

    Best inks for Canon Pixma Pro 10S

    which model are you using ? i understood that cheap probes on second hand market were made with an organic piece that doesn't age well (i can't remember which brand did that) and that it was why they were cheap.

    Best inks for Canon Pixma Pro 10S

    Since i cant do profiles now i'm trying to find a supply of OEM ink. So far it seems 29's ink is the nobrainer and luckily the pro1 i got was almost full. It appears that i didn't refilled the 72's GY yet and that i have a 29 DGY full. lucky me ! Good to know ! I'll have to make an order on...

    Best inks for Canon Pixma Pro 10S

    maaaannn, i'm currently refilling 72 with 29's ink and thank you to pointing out that 72GY = 29DGY........ not sure if i already did them, (3 to go, i don't remember which ones) might have to flush my 72GY's... ! How about other PFI-1000 ? it seems strange that only red and CO are the same.

    Saving a canon pro 10 printer, one day at a time.

    ah thank's, good insight ! i'll probably put an order in the next couple of weeks. I'm trying to figure if i should go all retard with genuine canon's ink coming from pgi 29 cartridges (there is a 85€ deal on C/M/Y/PC/PM/R on amazon right now) or if i go with octoink ink. I don't have mean to...

    Saving a canon pro 10 printer, one day at a time.

    Yes i was thinking about that. I want to order a potty from them and was wondering what kind of model i should get for the pro 10. What do you think of their ink compared to canon's ? Inktek one fell quite far away from canon's and i don't have calibration tools to make my own profiles.

    Saving a canon pro 10 printer, one day at a time.

    CO is there but with inktek's CO it is even less noticeable than with canon's. I just refilled 2 set of pgi-72 using pgi-29 ink, i'll post a scan of the nozzle check once i do the swap. I have to figure what happened to a Red cartridge first. It seems it has dried from inside. Refilling it is...

    Saving a canon pro 10 printer, one day at a time.

    After the successfully save of a pro 10, i got my dirty hands over a pro 10s that was sitting idle for 2 years. Most cartridges weren't empty but some were very low. I didn't installed a potty yet so i don't know if the printer attempted anything, headcleaning related, when i fired it up. and...
