Trigger Excellent post indeed and you come to the same conclusion as me, the print head has died. I had tried everything for close to 3 weeks and it was time to let it go. At one point you mention that I couldn't get 7 then 8 flashes, well I did and it happened several times too. The 7 flashes...

Trigger Thanks for the kind and very informative post. I have purchased an all-in-one. I went for the Brother MFC-240C. For my needs it's perfect, I wanted first of all something that would be cheap on compatible cartridges. After several posts and emails left and right and my own judgment I...

Lilla See my post #6 (in this thread) this link for a link to a place to buy a service manual cheap. Well I first followed the instructions you gave me from that link. They were actually different at one point in the procedure. I tried with and without the head to no avail and I had removed...

Lilla That is quite amazing indeed. You are more stubborn than me even! :lol: I will definitely try it, but where is that link you mention posting? You can email me the info directly at vaindioux@NOSPAMyahoo.com and remove the obvious if you get a chance. About an eventual new purchase, I am...

G Thanks a lot, awesome post, I am on my way to check it out. Best regards Patrick

Lilla As usual thanks for the kind help. I sent an email to the company that sold me the EOM cartridges for my Canon to see what they offer for the Lexmark or if they can recommend a printer/brand that would ensure my business to them :P. That is scary what you said about the Canon not warning...

Hi My Canon S630 has died. I (and Lilla from this forum) have tried it all, I have given up after a 10 day battle. I have stuff I need to print so it's time to move on. Ok here is the deal, my PC a Dell P4 1.8 ghz will be retired at Christmas and used as a back up PC. Since I don't want to...

Lilla I am going for an affordable all in one and am starting a new thread. I am looking forward to your opinion. Thanks again Patrick

Lilla Sorry to get back so late, it took me a little while to try everything, including cleaning the head and letting it dry. It won't work, I have tried to reset so many times. I truly think the head is dead as I get often the 7 orange flashes after resetting. And if I turn the printer off...

Hi <<Can you perform via Service Mode the EEPROM Info printout? What is your D value? I do not know how to do that above can you help? <<Can you perform via Service Mode the Service/Factory test printout? If so, this would tell us the printer is working, basically anyway. I tried to do a...

Hi The printer powers up but nothing happened like no mechanical noise and right away the orange flashes 8 times. I know the Neil site that's the one I used to go through the cleaning process and reset. I did try to reset "with" and "without" the printer head in there, I did several different...

Hi I own a Canon S630. I was getting 8 orange flashing lights. I went on the Canon website and it indicated a "Waste tank error" message. I googled and found a site telling me what to do. I had to get the ink pad out, clean it, dry it and put it back, then reset the printer. I did all that with...
