Clearing out the attic, this will need TLC as it's been sitting for some time unused. I fitted a waste ink tank and it has a CISS of unknown quality installed. Definitely worked in the past though. Have a few old espon and copy cartridges for it too. I believe I also have the roll paper feed in...

Well after 12 hours parked up on a moist pad the test page was still as dry as Gandhi's flipflop, so I've parked it back on another fresh one today. Definitely seeing waste ink getting pumped out when a nozzle clean is being run though so ink IS flowing then, just nothing when it goes through...

Thanks for the reply, indeed patience is always in short supply as I routinely leave everything to the last minute! I was trying to get some 'posters' put out before last night's AGM, should have started planning that a week or two ago! I've left the head parked over a pad of kitchen towel...

Ah, I think this was the thread I meant to post in! I've just posted on the Photo Printing forum on an old thread about dedicating a printer for B&W work when I think I had been reading this thread as well, oops, getting easily confused in my old age! I'll not repeat the whole story, but I'm...

Just realised I've been digging up an old old thread here! Rookie mistake, sorry about that.:/

Hi first post so please be gentle! I'm new to the whole refill thing having used lasers for general output for years but now I want to get into photo printing to actually see all the digital pictures I've been taking and I have jumped right in to the inkjet world with both feet. I am really...
