...here, one is the refillable carts themselves, They need far more attention every time you refill to keep them from suffering from ink starvation. Two, using OEM’s is not that easy either, to refill OEM carts you’ll need to get the XL type carts and a resetter, this makes refilling of these...

...cartridges that the chip has not been reset. The LGY nozzle check swath with the funnel shaped missing ink looks like classic ink starvation. This is typically due to low ink in the cartridge or something impeding flow through the cartridge. Regardless, follow @The Hat 's recommendation to...

...ends up middle grey at the left side. On cyan, magenta or yellow colors the effect is less noticeable but still there. That’s clearly ink starvation. Printing in high quality setting eliminates totally the banding, as the carrier travels at a lower speed and it does several passes for each...

So if I understand correctly even a dye ink if very viscous ("thicker") can lead to ink starvation and subsequently head damage. Greater flow can lead to? Ink stains maybe but no head damage? But is it possible for a dye ink to be more viscous than a pigment ink? I would expect the opposite to...

Ok...will let you know how printing results with mixed ink turns out with refill carts. Have a separate Canon DYE-printer for this purpose. PGI is from the same sets as the Yellow in picture My concern is......if there will be any concern mixing DYE inks from different suppliers Time will...

...ink of the same color into one bottle then expect problems, at least with color management. Let us know how it works out. PGI Black is Pigment Black ink. What cartridge model is the PGI? What is your concern? Pigment particle size leading to clogs or ink starvation? Color management?

...the OEM Yellow cartridge. It is a sludge or "Jello" that forms within the sponge leading to porr or no ink flow and leading to ink starvation. This may occur after several refills. It can be avoided by either using a thoroughly flushed CLI-42 Yellow or a CLI-8 cartridge with a chip swap...

...STS refill ink for the PRO-9500 had some issues too. But I was able to separate the "good" carts from the bad then. Chances are it is ink starvation due to a reaction with OEM ink causing a deposit or by the refill ink from its own. I reconditioned a magenta cart by repetitive flushing and...

...was normal again. But after printing a few images the same streaks and nozzle check problem appeared again. I assume the problem is ink starvation. I am using original cartridges refilled with octo-inkjet ink (Dribble method). I did not flush the cartridges before refilling, but now that i...

It wasn't from China. It shipped from Illinois. https://www.bonanza.com/listings/Genuine-CANON-Printhead-QY6-0075-for-Pixma-iP5300-MP810-iP4500-MP610-MX850/900177739 Cartridges cost $100. Given that there is also the recurring 5010 error, even if there is another replacement print head...

...If one or two don't help then more probably won't and may overheat the print head. :idunno No nozzle warping appreciated. Ink starvation present in PGBK, C and BK. Potential burned out nozzles and/or clogs in PGBK - some lattice lines appear and dissapear. The larger areas of loss are...

...start again and learn the proper procedures for refilling these cart properly, because most of your problems seemed to be related to ink starvation issues, as for the missing lines in the magenta nozzle check, it may come back, IF you install a proper known working magenta cartridge and not...

I have not always been using OEM inks (sadly) or even refilling, this was my first "high end" printer and didn't realize that the inks could cause problems with the actual print head vs just print quality. I have now researched and learned more about these higher-end printers and the care...

...begin after a specific event, like after changing the cartridge? Have you tried a different Magenta cartridge? What you describe is ink starvation which typically is due to poor ink flow through the sponge of the cartridge. Once ink in the lower portion of the sponge is used up during a...

Canon PIXMA ip8750 Ink is not getting through for both Cyan and PGi Black. This occurs for both refilled OEM and compatible carts. Indeed, there is a "puddle" of ink forming around the inlet for both these colours on the print head. When I have flushed the print head, the ink does get through...

...same clogging with the OEM ink that came with the printer as I think I used those up pretty quick. Lastly, I think I am leaning on ink starvation or something because last night I got a good nozzle check, then first thing this morning I also got a good nozzle check, I ran an automatic...

...ink is #4? That is a a near complete loss of ink, either from a massive clog or an electrical malfunction. This could also happen - ink starvation - from an empty ink cartridge or no ink flow through the cartridge for whatever reason. That you inserted a NEW cartridge and the loss of ink...

...several refills and attendant exposures of the sponge to air may eventually cause poor flow of ink through the sponge with eventual ink starvation and the potential to burn our nozzles permanently from lack of the cooling effects of liquid ink. So, replace the refilled cartridge when it is...

...to this "killer fungus". It can grow inside the fine ink passages in the print head and block them. It can begin as a problem with ink starvation, and next day the nozzles can be totally missing for the affected colour. I think no cleaning can save a print head blocked from biological...

...the issue. But, if you had tried a new and never opened PGBK cartridge before soaking we might have been able to rule in or out ink starvation. Maybe that was all you needed to do to resolve the funnel-shaped missing ink. :idunno Concerning cleaning the print head... Overall it sounds...
