Hi All I recall some time ago copying a batch file script from this site to run a printer nozzle check so I could easily run one from a desktop shortcut - rather than going through the rigmarole of doing this via the Control Panel. However, I've managed to lose the shortcut and cannot locate...

Hi All I use a Pro-100, bought new in July 2014 and, since purchase, I have top-filled the cartridges. I re-fill all 8 cartridges as soon as I get a 'low ink' warning on any cartridge, I never allow a cartridge to run dry and, since adopting this methodology (at about the time I bought this...

This morning I ran a print head alignment and, on page 2, there are thin white horizontal lines through three of the blue tests (see attached photos). There is no annotation on the printouts but comparison with the 'ink levels' dialog box suggests it was the photo cyan. My first instinct was...

Here's something I've not noticed before: the OE cartridges that come with the PRO-100 are labelled setup cartridges. Why would that be if? As I understand it there is no difference between the original cartridges and subsequent ones. Just a thought ...

I’ve not been re-filling for a while, work and family have been taking up my time and those photos I have been printing on my PRO-100 have been for paying clients so I’ve been using OE Canon inks. The printer has proved faultless and the quality superb during the two years I’ve had it but I’ve...

Over the last 2-3 days I've been creating new profiles for my Pro9000 II printer and my photo papers. After profiling I use a test picture to check the accuracy and, yesterday evening, I noticed thin parallel white lines in a blue section of the test print. I ran a nozzle check and saw nothing...

I have a Pro 9000 MkII. I have it because I need to print A3 colour on occasions and I am delighted about this because it's a great printer for all my needs and refilling's a breeze. I have now had occasion to clean the printhead a couple of times (easily done) and I have a good supply of OEM...

Good morning Last Thursday I started to print a large document; the first 5 pages were fine then the cyan appeared to stop printing without warning - no obvious streaks in advance. I noticed at about page 10 or 12. After 2 head cleans it started to work OK again but would stop printing again...

I had some time on hand today so I cut the side out of a spare BCI-6 cartridge to see how it's made. These cartridges cost a lot to buy new so I thought it would be interesting to see what goes into them and whether it was possible to ponder on how much R & D went into their design. And to...
