    Which pigmented inks can be used in Canon i9950 /i9900 (BCI-6)?

    Which pigmented inks can be used in Canon i9950 /i9900 (BCI-6)?

    The Hat, You suggest that I use good quality oem inks. Yes, that is what I was used to. But the prints are fading after 6-12 months anyway. Only from the last batch one dye was quite bad and gave a color shift after 1 month. Your offer to fill carts with your pigmented inks is great and I like...

    Which pigmented inks can be used in Canon i9950 /i9900 (BCI-6)?

    I used the last month a cart from a supplier that I was not familiar with. Suddenly the prints faded much faster than I'm used to. I use a i9950 with BCI-6 carts. Now I'm fed up with dye inks due to fading. I read here an there that people used pigmented inks in these a3+ Canon printers. I'd...

    i9900 Pics showing disassembly for ink pads

    Thanks Brady, I removed the two screws from the bottom. Are those the ones you mean? If so, then the chassis sticks to the plastic frame because I tried to lift it up to no avail. Should I use some force to do this? Can you confirm you mean the two screws from the bottom? Do I need any force? Nick

    Chemical printing using Epson Artisan 50

    Granddad, So in other words, its impossible to print only from one tank? If so, can Alchemy then spot only one chemical? Are there colors that never printed simultaneously? I was thinking along just black and another color. What about making an artificial icc profile. Would that be an option...

    Chemical printing using Epson Artisan 50

    Put some primers in e.g the A tank and print a gradient of all the colors (from each tank). Then test (e.g. Southern) to see if it is attached to the paper and where it is located. Then you know something about the cross contamination. Have fun and let us know how it is going. Nick

    i9900 Pics showing disassembly for ink pads

    Ok, How do I get to that tubing? You see it is still attached to the base plate. No idea how to dissasemble it further. Do you need any detail pictures? I can make them since it is now open. Nick

    i9900 Pics showing disassembly for ink pads

    Hi Brady, Great. I'm doing the same with my i9950. Opened the top case, but now I have trouble finding the right way to lift the chassis. I removed the 2 from the bottom but that does not make the chassis loose from the plastic body. Any idea what to do? Nick
