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...

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.

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...

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.

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...

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...

Following my previous post, i'll now document the refilling process I was fortunate enough to find a set of those bottle on vinted. Brand new, sealed so i used it to refill my cartridges instead of using This set of ink i had for my XP-960. The process was the same as for the Canon pro-10. I...

Hello Everyone. After a bit of research i'm now able to share what i learnt about the Epson 378/378XL - 478/478XL cartridges. The Squirells. I hope some of you will find this interesting ! disclamer : a cartridge was harmed during the making of this. Looks familiar ? This cartridge use...

https://www.printerknowledge.com/threads/canon-pixma-pro-1-partly-demystified.15319/ Indeed it wasn't you, sorry. I meant no offenses :) 100% sure i'll end up with stains but if i have to dump this printer, i won't miss the opportunity to see how things are made inside by myself ! I was...

I was more thinking of what is in the printhead. I've read somewhere (probably on this forum) that there is ~ 15ml of each colors in the printhead. I saw a post with a dismantled printhead (probably yours...) showing white bags that are supposed to be filled by ink. I thought about getting the...

Very well, that was the recommandation i was waiting for anyway. How would you proceed to salvage the ink in the tubes and printhead ? Can i simply start a headswapping procedure, get the printhead and suck the ink from the feeding holes ? Thanks ! Oh and by the way, can i use the pro-1 ink in...

So much knowledge *_* Pro the Pro-10 it was dumped for, what i understood while chatting with the previous owner's wife, is that he got bored of tweaking it for accurate colors and ended up giving it's prints to a lab. (he was probably a bit too rich to bother). Also he didn't told me but he...

Good to know. I skept this resetter now because replacements are cheap on aliexpress (like 3-4€) and i don't print that much. For the ink cartridges there are several resetter, some are sold for 17-18€ and given for 105 resets and some are unlimited, either on battery or usb-cable. For ~28-30. I...

i'm aware of this however for the pro-10 i scavanged last year the B200 error didn't came back (yet). Which led me to think that it was a room temperature/humidity related problem. Isn't it related to a temperature sensor in the printhead meant to prevent damage printhead overheating ? For this...

yes... i'm currently trusting a 13€ kit of 6 cartridge found on amazon and i'm afraid they leaks at some point. So far so good but you never know. I have 5 out of 6 guenine epson cartridges but i don't have the caps. and i like having 2 set of cartridges so i can swap a whole kit at once

Really ? I had no luck resetting ARC chips on the 24XL i used for the XP-960 i had. If it's different for the 378 that's great ! I have aeuropean XP-8700. Still looking for a XP-15000 but they're rather rare on the second hand market. Anyway that's more a matter on not trusting the sponges of...

Good to know. I have a european printer which is fitted with almost empty original epson cartridges. i'll probably buy this kit anyway so i have a spare set of cartridges for 10 euros and if something goes wrong with the epson cartridges i won't have to wait too much to get a set. Aren't 107...

Hello, i was wondering if you can reset original Epson 378 cartridges with a cheap resetter from aliexpress or if it only works on one-time-chips OEM empty cartridges that you usually find alongside thems. i'm aware cartridges shouldn't be empty and, fortunatly, only the Yellow is. I'll also try...

Got this 35kg paper weight for 50€ !! Bit of story first : I'm new here but long time lurker as i try to revive stuff for more than a year now. I Already purchased a Pro-10 with a B200 error a year ago and succesfully revived it by... Letting it warm up. Literally. So when the previous owner...

oh oh I do. Thank you for the insight. I've told a bit of my story and how i ended up here in my presentation post if you're interested ! I was using Premium Inks from a GB Supplier for a XP-960 (i always try to go as cheap as possible) but the results weren't great. I'll try the 107 to see if...
