    iP7250 Service Mode

    I'm confused, isoproponal not good, water not good. What's left to use? Is de-ionised water safe as you dont seem to see distilled anymore? With the last yellow print blockage i did notice some wispy looking strands in the cart reservoir and it had only ever had Octoink dye based in it and never...

    iP7250 Service Mode

    Regarding filling auto re-set carts with Octoinkjet dye based ink. Do i need to flush out the carts before re-filling and if so with what. I have used isopropanol for head cleaning before but that seems to have become very expensive since the last time I bought it. The carts have only ever had...

    iP7250 Service Mode

    Regarding the scan, i scanned the zipped file then unpacked it and scanned the resulting 2 files and finally scanned the whole pc after using the tool. Result was no threats detected. I don't know what else i could do, Kaspersky seems to have a fair detection rate and rating apart from the...

    iP7250 Service Mode

    I bought this printer last year after my mg5250 gave up, i've just replaced the printhead on this one after a very short time just under a year according to the readout. The yellow refused to print, couldn't clear it despite repeated cleaning in isopropanol. It was cheaper to replace the...

    iP7250 Service Mode

    The service tool v4720 does work, i was looking for a change in absorber value when reloading the tool. I now realise you have to print out the eprom to see the change has actually taken place. I believe tool v3200 is also ok for canon ip7250.

    I've tried every which way i can with v3400 and it doesnt work with the canon mg7550.

    Pixma mg7550 waste ink reset

    I have found that if you are not in service mode the tool buttons are greyed out and not responsive when using the mg5250. It appears to be the same with the mg7550, greyed out buttons when not in service mode. The fact that the buttons are active and respond indicates in service mode. I run the...
