    HP Inkjet 8710 and 8740 rejecting Costco refills?

    >>>>>If you are concerned about unwanted, unasked for firmware updates then you either want to block Outgoing or Incoming Connection(s) via your Firewall that are used by the printer software/firmware check for new firmware and/or send you the updated firmware. Knowing what to block is the hard...

    HP Inkjet 8710 and 8740 rejecting Costco refills?

    I wish to block printer incoming and the firewall is a grand idea. I'll try the printer panel but doubt HP wants to give the user that opportunity. I was incomplete on the Epson vs. network. The printer had two USB slots that could be accessed from any of our computers that accessed the printer...

    HP Inkjet 8710 and 8740 rejecting Costco refills?

    I have no love for HP. We owned their stock long ago when it was still a decent company. But once HP started to no longer behave as HP, we dumped the stock on principle and that was at least 15 years ago. We tried getting away from HP printers several years ago. We bought a Cannon at Costco and...

    HP Inkjet 8710 and 8740 rejecting Costco refills?

    Since the current problem is recent (since I last change a cartridge), I'm wondering if the problem is an update sent to both machines. I discarded that thought not seeing any Google complaints. Now I'm wondering... is it possible to force the printer to revert back to its previous software?

    HP Inkjet 8710 and 8740 rejecting Costco refills?

    I've had the chip problem before and Costco knew of the problem when I came in and was working on the reverse engineering and did re-chip my returned cartridges several weeks later. With the virus mess I haven't been to the store--out of sight... I'll call the store today and see what they say...

    HP Inkjet 8710 and 8740 rejecting Costco refills?

    I've used Costco to refill our cartridges for years. Twice they had a problem and proactively acknowledged same and you were asked to wait for their receipt of a new cartridge chip when HP changed their OEM chip. Otherwise, no problem. Until now. ALL of our refilled cartridges (~12+) will not...

    Canon MX882 Feature questions

    There are a couple of features that install with this printer and I frankly cannot get a straight answer from Canon as to what is exactly their function. 1. Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX: I've clicked on the thing and don't see right off what it wants to do? 2. Easy photoPrint EX: this...

    Canon MX882 Ink questions

    As it stands now, it's just the Black text that we're using a lot of. For now I've ordered 2 ea OEM from Amazon. The total cost for the 2 was $29. Is there a 3rd party whose product is reliably good and significantly less than above? Is refilling the tanks as daunting as it sounds? If not...

    Canon MX882 Ink questions

    New to Canon from long HP use-- 1. Anyone have experience with the quality of Sophia Ink third party black cartridges? 2. Why 2 different Black tanks: 1 bigger than other? The printer seems to only use the bigger of the two? 3. A can't seem to find anyone that refills these tanks? Mark
