Outpost.com has the Canon IP6000d Photo printer for 99.99 + shipping, as of this weekend. Not sure if Fry's has them as well. It has the BCI-6 carts that are easy to refill. Maybe too good of a printer for smaller kids, but the price is not bad. http://shop4.outpost.com/product/4235794

Yes, you can still remove the ink cartridges after applying the hot glue to the end of the lever. The only trouble I remember having would be when I needed to remove and flush the printhead periodically, when switching different vendor inks. I needed to apply a little ice to cool the glue bead...

Had this same problem a while ago with a Canon i850. Superglue did not work very well for me. My solution was to use hot glue to lock the printhead in place. Just lift the plastic bar connected to the locking lever up out of the way. Then, pressing the printhead against the printhead carriage...

I believe that the five orange lights blinking represent a printhead or printhead contact error/failure. Try removing the printhead and cleaning the copper foil contacts, using isopropyl alcohol, on the back of the printhead. While you are at it, visually inspect the contact pins on the...

Endmukbud, Yes and no. The firmware is usually implemented as a result of the hardware decisions used on the printer. Flashing the pixma 1000 firmware to the i320 printer will not increase the speed and resolution of the i320, because the i320 may not have the required hardware for the pixma...

Hiya Bobglen. I can remember some of HP's early inkjets printer/plotters. HP and Canon have had a strange relationship regarding printers, as you note with the lasers. Both claim to have invented the inkjet, but surely HP was a prime mover in the early adoption of inkjet technology. Canon...

CC, Endmukbud. The light will most likely be an optical encoder, used to verify the position of the printhead location to the printer's drive control circuitry. The drive motor is usually a stepper motor, which requires a series of on-off pulses to create motor movement and the encoder counts...

That is not so hard to believe, especially the increased resolution. As I understand things, when inkjet printer manufacturers refer to resolution, in dpi, they are talking about "addressable dots per inch" or drop locations per inch. For example, if the resolution is 600x600 dpi, that means...
