Eek! I came on here to ask the same question! I have an OKI MC361 (Costco: color MFP LP) that I just noticed is running low on cyan toner. OEM looks like $117 per toner, through Google I found one of those ink company's that have them for about $25/toner. Anyone with ANY knowledge about...

Thanks!

Hello Pharm, I did see your posting about the faulty tuning chip and believe that may be what the problem is with mine. Regarding the error message, it says either no or replace maintenance cartridge. The ink cart related error doesn't state a problem, they just blink so I think they may not be...

I keep getting maintenance cartridge errors and also seeing 2-3 ink carts blinking on the lcd??? FWIW- I've tried following their resetting carts instructions w/out much luck. Thanks!

Hello all! So I finally decided to pull the trigger and order a kit for my 3800 that handles resetting the maintenance cartridge as well. I had a tough time choosing but ultimately went with the inkrepublic. I received the kit last Monday and I'm having issues getting it to work, I think it...

Anyone sell those auto reset chips for the maintenance tank separately? I was going to pull the trigger and buy a set of those new carts with the chips but until I see some better reviews I'm holding off.

Any updates?!?! :) I was looking to purchase the blue resetter myself when I just noticed they're $95 on eBay, anyone know a cheaper priced source? If not, for the additional $75 I'll just buy the all new inkfly cart set with the maintenance tank chip, I read that they're finally auto reset...

You use to screwdriver to GENTLY pry the cover off not to unscrew screws. On the opposite side of where those scratches are is a little nipple that sits in a recess in the base (silver) cover, all you need to do is GENTLY pry the cover out of that indent. Takes all of 2secs on each side.

So Pharm.......how did this extensive test go anyhow? And since you mention mixing inks, Im actually mixing IS inks with a few oem Epson carts....good or bad idea?

Thnx Hat!

For now, primary paper has been Kirkland Pro Gloss in both their letter and 4x6 sizes. I'm looking to order some paper and for the love of God I feel like a small child lost at ToysRUs without a clue of what I want, so I have a few questions if yall don't mind. - How do you go about choosing...

Thnx for the quick reply Pharm, I REALLY appreciate it. About the I-refill system, is there a program downloaded to the pc? If not, is there any sorta chip installed on the cart or no? Very interested in learning more about that set up. I'm starting to regret not just spending the extra coin on...

So I'm having problems resetting one of my colordroplets carts and I think it may be related to letting the ink level go beneath 5%.....although the level says 4% on my computer it states 5% on the printer LED....could the problem be something else? If not, how do I go about...

Why do you purge before recycling, sorry if there's an obvious answer. :D

Thnx for the replies.....I will most definitely give precisioncolors a holler when I'm ready to buy some inks. Some of my tanks are at the halfway mark so I thought I'd start looking into it immediately, then I realized unlike the printers Ive had til now, there really isn't an emergency since...

lolopr- Sorry if Im misunderstanding you but it looked as if one minute you're saying the IS inks are great and color match OEM K3 inks fine but then say you cant beat the K3 inks??? Is it possible that the lack of gloss is more about the type of paper being used? I'm asking cuz I just...

Ever find 3rd party pigment ink that compared well to OEM?

Am I the only one having serious problems with leakage while trying to refill with the squeeze bottles? I tried the German and then conventional method, both were very messy and wasteful to say the least. For starters, you need to be real careful when you tip the bottle upside down cuz the flow...

Hello, I apologize if this has been covered I did a search and couldn't find what I'm looking for. I just received my ColorMunki X-Rite, profiled my monitor and printer and I'm getting horrendous prints now. Before I go too crazy I need to be sure about the correct settings in the i9900...

Im relatively new and learning here so bare with me and my question, where are the purge pipes? I had some issues that sound different than yours but cleaning the contacts on the backside of the print head along with the needle like contacts that touch them with a lint free cloth and it seems...
