And suddenly the printer started to give B200 errors time to time (like once very 3 months). Suddenly I find that the printer is giving me 1403 meaning Printhead not found. So I...

    My first refill!

    My very first refill was with a Canon BJC 1000SP. The cartridges were very expensive and I didn't know about refilling. I was around 14. I was sick of ink running out so what I did was took out the BC-6 cart and punched three holes at the top using a heated screw driver. Used screw driver to...

People have made softwares to reset waste ink pad 4. The Print Head does not burn up and die because you run out of ink 5. There is...
