I have now decided to paint my new p900 with a layer of gold aka: (buy an extra set of cartridges) and in 6 months we will see. End of story for now.

Thanks. That gives about 20 ml for each cartridge. Gives me time to consider which way to go. I think it will be wise to keep workable Epson cartridges, should problem arise. Printer will arrive today. Too bulky for normal delivery. I don´t have to rebuild the house but need to clear some space...

Thanks Thanks John. Helped a lot. P900 is ordered plus an extra LGY. ChatGPT says 15-20 ml ink will be used at startup. Gives me time to find out if I will go third party or not.

I gave up on my faulty p900. At least I dont want to spend more time on it. I still want to go Epson and A2 and the p900 is an option. In Denmark I can get one for 1.100 € online and I have found a p800 on a craigslist www.dba.dk for 800 €. No warranty. Brand new. Unused and cartridges not...

Thanks everybody for your responses and advice. I’ve decided to give up on this printer as a 100% working tool for color printing. Magenta ink appears in nozzle checks only when I apply a bit of pressure to the outlet chamber of the cartridge. I believe the problem lies in the cartridge itself...

3.2.3 I will look into the wiper, eventually dirty cap and forign matter adhering to the print head. I will use windex and polyalcohol and lot of patience while performing under printhead cleaning. (if possible modus Entlich) ?? I experienced that cranking the printer up the printhead doesnt...

OK. I didnt say that would be my only way to go. Just pointin out that QTR is a good tool for B&W printing and as a diagnostic tool. now I will look into @thebestcpu suggestions. And reread Arthur Entlichs manual for cleaning.

:-) In my view - QTR is not controlling the spinning of the wheels. It is the very central control of ignition and valves.

Thanks . VM not supported. M is the problem. M is supported.

Question again. Is the way to go, patience and TLC as prescibed by Arthur Entlich. and that is: No pressure flushing, that is flush cartridge, under carriage "wetting" withe lint free cotton or paper? When it comes to checking the tubes and dampers it is out of my reach, and then I have a B&W...

Is it still patience and TLC. Cleaning with a lint free cotton as described by Arthur Entlich? I have his manual. Still I am very confused with the QTR. The Magenta channel, spewing Cyan, suddenly increases at 20%. I wonder if that was the initial problem that caused Epson to replace the...

I agree (partly) with you on the 6 color test. But wonder about the difference between low and high resolution. And what happens when i go Linux and Gutenprint. I have used QTR to flush channels in the past. Its the best option. The second best is individual purge file.

Hi, I got this printer several years ago – almost for free. It originally had an issue with colored streaks when printing black and white. An Epson technician couldn’t fix it, so the former owner received a replacement, and I got this one. Since then, I’ve only used it for black and white...

I am using these. I guess that the darker one will purge more ink than the lighter one.

Hi Has any of you an violet purge file. I am going to empy all color out of my p900. I got this one very cheap as it is defective and the fault could not be resolved by Epson. The owner was allowed to keep it. It prints som strange colored streaks on left side of the paper but apparently no...

PM in here - like in messenger?

Hi Wim. Reply from seller. The carts in my printer are ALL the original ones. So go ahead. Send me your e-mail and i will send you a copy of my invoice from AliExpres express. They are able to collect danish VAT so I had no further import duties. Carsten drfihl at gmail com

Hi. I dont know as I bought the printer second hand. I bought the printer from a dedicated B&W photographer/printer and it printed colored streaks. Epson were not able to resolve the problem. She got a new printer and was allowed to keep this one. I saw prints, took a chance as I will also print...
