I had one of these printers. The print head failed so I replaced it only to have a fault in the motherboard appear which would have meant spending hundreds more to resolve. Having already spent hundreds of dollars on ink I cut my losses and took it to the tip after letting it sit in the garage...

I have one these printers and use a refill setup. I have had no problems with it so far, but I always do a print every few days and as previously said always check ink levels are adequate., and never allow it to run dry. I don’t have enough technical knowledge to comment on your specific issues...

I have had an inkjet Epson Artisan 730 for 7 years with a CISS system and this printer seems bulletproof to me. I know the same printerhas been used commercially for at least the same period by the CISS suppliers I use. If you can find one used it would still be a good buy and with the bonus of...

We have a 6KW system with SMA inverter limited to 5Kw due to government regulations here (Sunshine Coast {good place for a solar panel, eh}) and it’s the best thing we ever installed. No power bill for 6 years. Have been deliberating about battery system but agree they are too expensive here to...

Hello Octopus I will follow your thread with interest. I was in a similar situation but I have to say that I gave up in the end and bought an SC600 and I am enjoying the adventure of learning the craft of fine photography printing. I still have the Pro-1 but would have to spend a lot of money...

I have used this supplier for 6 years with a CISS system and Artisan 730 and now am using a new Epson SC-P600 with refillable cartridges supplied by them. I have always found them to be very helpful and supportive whenever I have called and for anyone in OZ would not hesitate to recommend them.

Interesting, but I cannot confirm if this was an issue as the printer is with the agent getting fixed. One analogy that has occurred to me regarding the Pro-1 is that of your 'grandfathers axe' , by the time I have replaced everything it will be new again.

An update. The next step is a new logic board is being installed. If this doesn’t work (another $300) I will be taking the item to the nearest cliff and waving goodbye to it.

Well, thanks for the reply. I can see my statement above was somewhat ambiguous. I didn't install the new print head personally, a Canon technician did using the Service Tool software. I cannot access the Software Tool in any case as Canon licences its use to authorised technicians here in...

Further to my post above on the B200 error. I sourced an OEM printhead and installed it but now have an ERO=5205 and ERO=5206 fault from the Service Tool which seems to indicate a logic board issue. The MBK ink cartridge was not full when all inks were replaced but still relatively new, but even...

I am wondering what the detailed instructions were for Bald Eagle as there is no active link there. I also have a Canon Pro-1 and with a new set of original cartridges have just had the B200 error come up.

I became the owner of a Canon Pro-1 recently when a neighbour gave it to me. It has only had original Canon PGI-29 inks used in it but the printer had not been used much when I got it so I was cautious about its value. I could see the inks were low even though he had bought a new set of original...
