First of all, yes, I am aware this printhead has been superseded by QY6-0075. Not sure what the
difference is but anyway this one was found in a used mp610 that I bought about a week ago.
First date of service (from the Eeprom dump) was Aug. 2013. Total pages printed 855. So,
except what you...
Ink absorber counter value.
D=013.5
I have several Canon printers showing various ink absorber counter values but am unable to find anything in the manuals
I have about how the values relate to the actual condition of the ink absorber.
An mp610 shows a value of D=013.5 and a total page count...
I have an ip3000 that's getting a bit long in the tooth - initially installed 02/10/2005 and 9000 pages. It has a new print head and
has been taken apart to clean the absorbent pads. It prints just fine except I just got my first 5100 error on an auto duplex
page. Cleared that and went on to...
Does ink get old? Yes, I know all the cautions, etc., but here's a weird one.
Last night I copped a used ip3000 for free. Guy from Craigslist says he just got married
and now had two printers, so gave me the Canon. Wonderful. I appreciate it and will
surely find a use for this.
So, today I...
In an earlier post I mentioned that I had tried the Durchstich method and was very satisfied. I mentioned
that I thought it was "dead easy". That opinion was based on an experience sample of one or two cartridges.
More recently, I've tried a couple of Canon CLI-8 cartridges and have made a...
While working on a couple of (old) Canon printers, both of which had, by the way,
given good service for years, I went out and bought an MP620B so as to have a
backup printer available. Remorse, remorse! These are on sale right now at Best
Buy, Walmart and probably other stores for $99 (against...
The set of CLI-8 that I bought the other day turn out to be OEM Canons refilled.
I've seen that mentioned and as far as this set goes, that is confirmed. When you
take off the sloppily applied Office Depot label you see the original Canon label.
The refill is pretty hamfisted too. It looks like...
Well anyway, at least this one did!
In addition to the ip3000 that I've been working on I have an ip4200 that is about four years old.
It's been in storage most of that time with no special measures taken to preserve it. Prior to
putting it away, it just quit. All the warnings had been...
Does anyone have an opinion on these cartridges.
Especially with respect to refilling. is it easily done?
What is the original (ml) volume of the ink content.
Of course HP very cagily omits this from their "technical"
information.
Also, I don't understand the numbering. HP websites
again are...
In a separate topic I've had some suggestions on what to look for in my ip3000
However, I don't know how to open it.
There appears to be an overall shroud with some clips around the bottom but
I've not uncovered the "secret" order.
If any of you has the experience, I'd appreciate some tips so I...
I have an ip3000 that has given great service. I've been refilling cartridges for nearly five years
with little trouble. I've used inks from atlascopy.com and have bought only two cartridges in
that whole time. Some of you may have quibbles about that but it was before I discovered
this forum...
