I am VERY INTERESTED! Need time to compose a longer response and also thinking a PM might be the way to go. Thanks Jane

The newest of my Canon printers, the IP6000D, that takes the BCI-6 ink cartridges is giving me trouble; so thinking about what next. I am a long time refiller but have not done any with the chips. Need to be off to do some other shopping. Anyone have any suggestions even before I get into...

I notice you are in the US and I though none of the US Canon printers did cd/dvd printing! Has this 620 been modified?

With some instruction manuals it is the result of very poor translation from one language to another.

Rather than use newspaper or such I literally inherited a foil oven liner (intended to catch drips in the oven of a kitchen stove) which I use to catch ink drips, etc. when refilling. When done any that got on it easily rinses off.

Yes, I should have said I was not surprised to find a PM or M missing after the green print. This morning the bubbles in the PM were down and I found nothing that looked out of place on the bottom of the head (nozzles). I did a nozzle check that came out fine. So I took a chance and ran the...

What Next!!! I did a search for more cleaning information (which was not as fruitful as I hoped most search engines dont seem to expect thing phrased the way that is natural for me). By going through the steps described at post #4 in the thread here...

bbbbb Sorry I wasnt clear enough about nozzle check pattern. I am posting a scan that I hope comes through clear enough. The odd colors are in what I guess you would call titles at the start of each color bar. Then the only thing off in the bars is the missing bars for the cyan. In...

I did use your cleaning process and it was after that seemed to be helping that I got the new cartridge. Once again a qoute from my post just previous to this one: "Going to it seemed to finish solving my problems as I got a good nozzle check and printed a number of pages that were mainly...

After things seemed to be improving I decided to get a new black cart. on Sunday, May 18. Going to it seemed to finish solving my problems as I got a good nozzle check and printed a number of pages that were mainly text. I was ready to post my thanks but before I got to it. . . Then . . ...

Thanks for the replies. It is a relief to know I am not contending with a case of burned out nozzles. Now to double check some things before I start doing. Want to make sure you understand I am located in the US. What I have on hand in the way a cartridges for possible use in the black...

I had a feeling that it had been long enough since I have posted any images here that I woud struggle with relearning it. That was the case but as I start this post I have gotten one up and hope to do two more. This was the reason they were not in my first post as I needed to go on to...

This Canon printer uses 6 of the BCI-6 carts. I was having a great experience with this printer for just over a year until I tried to do a very large print job of black text (duplex printing on 8.5" x 11" sheets) for our church newsletter (it takes 125 sets). I made the attempt to do this at...

I went through a similar series of things with pulling the Canon ball and reinserting as Lilla did except for the rust which I didn't get from the BRASS eye-screws I was using. I did have an additional problem of it sticking up to far from the top of the cart with the latest printer I have as...

I have been looking for a long thread that I remember about sealing the refill hole on Canon OEM BCI-6 carts and can't find it even after doing a search. But, did run across this drying idea http://www.nifty-stuff.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1404 which looks like something I want to try since I...

As I posted in the other thread; is there a known sucessful way to do the drying without a wet vac? Thanks Jane

Any suggestions for drying when you don't own a wet/dry vac? Jane

What I had in mind was getting something to start "fresh" while the Canon's that came with the printer are still in use (so that I won't have to stop and fill when something runs down while I am printing something I need now). Jane

With my newest printer (S800) being darn close to 5 years old decided to get a iP6000D from a seller on e-bay. It arrived last Tuesday and I feel like I am back to what I was getting from the others when they were new. But, I am still wanting to know what members of this group prefer as a...

I said the PM & PC seemed to be problem colors because they are the ones that have usually been the ones to have ink flow, clogging, problems for me. I have also read of that being the case for others.
