If you use Canon ink the printhead should last. If you use generic ink plan on buying a bunch DK wrote: I have ip4000R which suits me in every respect and I would like to keep it for as long as I can. Apparently, printhead has a limited lifespan. No problem, I can buy one for $55 right...

Hi there I've just got a C1480 for my iMac and noticed that when I put in a photo ink cartridge that I cannot set the quality of printing (high, best, max dpi etc.) Does anyone else use this printer with their Mac - and if so - is there a way of defining the dpi quality when printing or...

Hello..I have one of these printers and am very happy with it overall but no matter what I try I can't get rid of the white border around the edges of my 4x6 photo prints...If I choose the "borderless" setting I still get a small white border of like 1/8" on 3 sides and 1/4" on the other (I...

Hi, I'm searching for a compact multifunction printer with fax capabilities and lan connection (ethernet, fast-ethernet..). I've seen the Brother MFC 7225N but I've no idea about its quality. Can you give me some advice? How about Hp, Canon, Lexmark.... ? Thank you Marco

Thanks to Stick's Post earlier re Cartridge World Ink. Anyone used it & what's the quality like..? Especially for Canon's. Davy

I'm looking for one but it seems the don't make the ones that you could put two different letter heads in? Is this correct or I'm looking at the wrong thing. I know many of the old HP Lasers had double tray options. thanks for any info on this

I read this on another thread and now it happened to me. This has to have happened to someone else! My pixma started feeding paper fine on the right and crumpling the paper on the left side. So I switched to my old S300 until I could figure out the problem, simple and reliable right? Well it lasted...

I want to make black ink my printer default, not the color. HP 890C printer. How do I change the printer to do this. Thanks,

My R300 is showing the dreaded error message "service Required". I've googled the problem and come up with various solutions - i.e. hold down the power, stop and paperjamreset buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds.(Don't have a paperjamreset button) hold down 'stop' 'maintenance' and 'power'...

We have an HP LaserJet 5000N attached to a cat5 cable on a p2p LAN. We have two PCs connected to the LAN both by cat5 cables. One is a workstation and the other is a laptop. Both are HP and 5 years old running Windows 2000. The router is part of the cable modem that came with the...

Hi .......can anyone help pls. When I switch my printer on I just keep getting this msg......."Service required. Parts inside your printer are at the end of their sevice life". Does anyone know what that means and if so is it something I can put right myself or does it mean a trip to the pc...

I am having similar brown printing problems to Howard in earlier post. Is there a Windows alternative to the Mac printer driver "Printfab" ? Barricadezone

Tray 1 loaded with paper. Most of the time printer will pull paper from Tray 2. I have to open Tray 2 to force printer to pull paper from Tray 1. It was my understanding that the printer default was to pull paper from Tray 1 if loaded. Never had this problem with my 4 Plus or 4000. Thanks for any...

There has been a lot of traffic about Epson print heads clogging when using pigmented ink. I hit this problem and got to the stage when repeated head cleaning had no effect. This was my solution. I ordered 4 cleaning cartridges from Choice Stationery, cost £11.20 (UKP). Next time I had a...

To all those in the UK who have canon printers using these cartridges, I see that Cartridge World shops now supply refilled cartridges with RESET chips on them. I have used them and so far have had no problems, just like installing a new cartridge, no loss of ink status monitor.

Oh dear..here we go again..last year it broke its PSU, then its belt..and now..well HELP is all I can say. Not to mention the demise of the Laserjet 6 last month..what IS going on?..sigh. I expect t th cat has been ****ing in it. Anyway. The symptoms: After the usual boot up sequence MOSTLY...

Anyone having or had trouble with feeding paper? I use the bog standard A4 paper and 140g A4, and lately I'm having a lot of problems getting the paper to feed. 9/10 times it just wont feed.Took the printer to an Epson dealer and they cleaned it and said it was dusty and the 140g could be the...

I've had a HP 2200DN for about 6 years and printed thousands of pages with it. I've never replaced the drum. Now, pages I print look like this: http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/815/printerprob11ab.jpg Do I need to replace the drum? Many thanks...

I just bought a new computer and at some point plan to upgrade it to about-to-arrive Windows Vista. It appeaars that my present Lexmark Z65 won't have a Vista driver written for it so I'm shopping for a printer I can get a deal on with the computer purchase. I want it for general use rather than...
