here goes, i bought a canon w6200 pg, which is a pigment ink printer. It was used and came with a load of inks all accept magenta, so i purchased some magenta pigment ink. unfortunately it decided to prinnt all colours wrong????
ive since bought a complete set of refill for this but not working still, ive since found out that the ink that came with the machine was encad GS series, which is dye based, so ive now purchased some of this ink and will flush the machine out and replace with dye ink, hopefully it will print nicely, my question is, if its a pigment printer, why doesnt it print nicely on pigment??
sorry for the long winded question.
