    Can I use Ecotank ink in WF-7015?

    HI there I have a Epson WF7015. I have some EcoTank ink (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CLGRX9LV) and some refillable cartridges for the 7015. The printer is for general purpose use - not precision photos. Is the ink likely to do the job or will it ruin the print head? Any thoughts? Many thanks

    ip3000 yellow banding

    While I'm waiting for the new head to arrive. How important is it to replace the waste ink sponge? My printer gave the warning message a while back and I simply reset it. Also should I lubricate the machine in any way - its making squeaking noises.

    I have a Canon Pixma ip3000 and recently it has started printing the yellow in bands about 4mm wide - lighter and darker. I have cleaned, and soaked the printhead but no change. Is it a print head issue or is it something else? When I run the print test the yellow stripe is half light, half...
