Getting Fingers Dirty
For anyone who hasn't seen my recent query, I have just purchased a Canon IP7220 printer, which uses the CLI-250/251 ink tanks. Between my IP4920 and MG6220 printers refilling inks is a mixed bag. The IP4920 works very well, but the MG6220 needs cleaning and print head flushing after nearly every job I do. Both of those use the same tanks, as well... CLI-225/226, but tanks don't seem to be the problem... the printers appear to operate very differently, so refilling works well on the IP4920, and almost not at all on the MG6220. I let the wife use the MG6220 and we buy discounted OEM inks, and I use her empties for refilling in my printer... the IP4920.
Is anyone using the CLI-250/251 tanks in one or another Canon printer? If so, how does it work with refill ink? Do you use some kind of ink additive to prevent clogging. If anyone is using the MG5420 printer, I'd be interested in knowing if that works very well with refill ink? I will probably try refilling with the IP7220, but if there are any tricks or added advice specific to that printer or the MG5420, I'd appreciate any advice.
I'm using Precision Colors ink, so all my comments above apply to Precision Colors ink products.
Thanks for any comments...
