    Brother DCP-L3551CDW Multi-function Color Laser-how to empty\fill toner and reset counter?

    Hi all. This Brother model may have a different number outside New Zealand. Is there a generic thread about refilling toner cartridges on a similar model? Thanks. BTW: I'm getting the 'WT BOX FULL SOON' message but I haven't printed more than a few thousand sheets.

    Canon MG7760 - fill carts with water?

    Sorry if this question has already been asked but here goes: My MG7760 ran out of all ink 8 or 9 months ago when I bought a color laser, but it's been functioning ok as a scanner. However, it threw a hissy fit yesterday when I accidentally hit the 'print' button and took me some time to reset...

    Canon inkjet pickup rollers - where are they?

    I ask because I occasionally re-use paper that's dogeared or has been stapled or folded, and I'd like to make sure I'm inserting the paper so the clean end is gripped by the pickup apparatus. I guess the location might vary between models? My Canons are MX726 and MG7760. Thanks. (and best wishes...

    Color laser - longevity of carts?

    After years of using a printer bank comprised of several Canon inkjet MFC's plus a single Brother mono laser, I'm considering replacing the whole lot with a single Brother MFC Color Laser. I'm thinking that the new Brother (or other brand, haven't decided yet) will only come with starter carts...

    MG7760 wacky output

    Experimental Scrabble score sheet: Thought I'd see how it looked and the printout is as you see. Is the printer EOL or is there some adjustment I can make?

    Canon cartridge compatibility conundrum

    Canon MX726 - Win7 Accidentally bought the compatible Big Black cart when I just wanted the small one (photo) Sending back to the supplier is uneconomic, so I just ordered another. My question: The supplier says the ink is the same. Any reason why I can't just drill a small hole in both carts...

    MX726 - how to clean the printhead?

    I've already done a CLEAN then a DEEP CLEAN but there's no yellow output, even though the cart is showing 80% full in the status window. I'm thinking that the printhead could do with a clean? Advice, please :-)

    Bulk ink for these printers in NZ?

    Hi all. It's time I started getting to grips with filling my own ink cartridges. My printers: Canon MG7760, Canon MX726. My question: Is there anyone here who can tell me where to buy bulk ink for these printers in New Zealand? If it makes a difference to the ink type I require, I doubt I'll...

    CD printing software

    My last printer - MP830 - happily used Canon's 'CD Label Print' software. I think the last version I had was 1.2. This app created 'dot cdl' files (.CDL), and I have 100's of these. Now, after a lapse of several years, I want to print some CD's. Unfortunately, the MP830 no longer works. I've...

    MP830 - Looking for detailed disassembly instructions

    I want to print some CDs with an MP830 that hasn't been used for two years. After reading several threads here, I've got as far as a complete clean-up of the print head, but I think I may as well go all the way and do a full job on the entire ink system. So I could do with a screw-by-screw...
