I'm using the auto ink carts on this printer. It is not displaying the correct ink level. It's not showing the ! anymore but it still looks like the cart is low. Now I refilled them when they were low and not completely out. Is that the problem? Do I need to wait until it says the cart is...
I got a notification on my printer that there is a new firmware available.
1. Is it possible to manually download the firmware and install it?
2. Is there a change log somewhere for it?
3. Is it safe to install? I.e. it won't block refillable cartridges or cause other printing issues.
4. Is...
It has a new printhead and I'm using 3rd party ink. I have a somewhat unique printing situation as I am printing most of the time over the internet through GoToMyPC. I bring this up because it only seem to happen when I was printing a PDF which for some reason creates a large print file. It...
For some reason my router has decided to assign a different IP address to my printer. Is there a way to change the address on the port? Surely I don't have to reinstall the driver just to get it to detect the printer at a different address. Can I just change the 'location' on the 'general'...
Just curious as to why the color ink seems to get depleted when I'm only printing grayscale? Is there some kind of 'mini cleaning cycle' going on whenever I print something? I would think only the black ink would be used.
I think the printhead is clogged. This printer seems new even though I got it second hand. I have done a regular cleaning and a deep cleaning and both patterns look the same. I see some yellow and a little black on the paper but the patterns are not there. Also I am getting error 2500 when I...
I had gotten the dreaded 'B200' error a couple of months ago but I fixed it by closing the lid on power up when the printhead was to the left (google for more info if interested). Ok well today it did it again so I reset it once but the error came back and then the screen slowly faded to black...
I haven't used the printer for a few months. Put it back in service yesterday. Had to do a few cleaning cycles but everything was fine. Today I slightly opened the lid to manually open the paper drawer and boom B200 error. I have tried to clean the printhead but I still get the error. Any...
I have a MX870 that I want to use the remaining ink out of the cartridges and then store them and the printhead long term. What is the best way to do this?
