Help! Need advice on Canon i860 BCI-3e config
wrote:
I have a Canon i860 Bubblejet with the Canon Print Manager software/driver
Ver8.03
on an old Win98 machine. Each time I try to print black text, it insists on
printing from
the BCI-6 Black cartridge (small) instead of the BCI-3e Black
(plenty of ink there). I have been through the configuration settings
(gray-scale, text, etc.)
and can't seem to get it to use the BCI-3e. Any advice?
Thanks!
You didn't mention how you were able to tell which cartridge was being
used?
I can tell you that BCI-3e ink (OEM or true pigment aftermarket) is near
waterproof while BCI-6 is not. So if you wet a BCI-3e printout it will
stay sharp. If BCI-6 black was used the ink will to feather and lose
sharpness.
