Clogged Black on i560
I tried solvents, new black cartridges,
air blasts, and even contacted Canon. Their stupid answer was make sure the cartridge has ink. It was buy a new print head or a new printer...WRONG...a pot with 1 inch of very hot water cleared the clogged print head in a couple of minutes. It was amazing how fast that water turned solid black. A couple of swishes, a little air blast, and that sucker works perfect. |

Marc - you might be interested in going onto the forum at
http://www.nifty-stuff.com/forum/ and also clicking the Neil Slade link at the top of the nifty-stuff home page. Good info about printer maintenance, ink, paper, etc. "MarcD" wrote in message news:u1Kne.13$Cr.1@fed1read07... I tried solvents, new black cartridges, air blasts, and even contacted Canon.

Good info about printer maintenance, ink, paper, etc. The information is informative but it is slanted and heavily skewed toward AfterMarket inks by hobbists who use and promote that kind of stuff; including fotofreak. The majority of printer users who happen to use OEM ink in their printer usually do not frequent those sites or this NG and have far less problems than those you read about here.

If Measekite had an open mind (or any mind at all) he would learn a lot on
the Nifty-stuff and Neil Slade sites and realize that the people who contribute most to it have great investigative abilities, engineering or scientific backgrounds, and a sincere desire to share information and help newbies and long time printer users alike. Far from being hobbiests, several of them use printers in their businesses with heavy printing loads, some have businesses doing refilling of carts and share their experience, and some are just having a hell of a good time printing tons of stuff in color because the non-OEM inks cost about a tenth of what Canon inks cost and they don't even have to think about the cost of ten or a hundred 8x10's more or less. Measekite, if you had respect for other people's experience and opinions and stopped being so effing critical you would be regarded as any other contributor on this NG instead of being known as the resident Pain in the Ass. It is only you guess that most OEM ink users don't have problems and don't come onto this NG. My guess is that the majority of computer users don't know anything about any of the NG's and suffer through hardware and software problems without the benefit of this whole community of people who generously give of their time to help others. My guess is that most people use OEM inks and when they have head clogs that won't clear with the printer driver cleaning cycles they toss the printers and buy new ones. Too bad they didn't read the Nifty-stuff and Neil Slade sites or get Arthur Entlich's instructions as they would still be using the printers they could have easily repaired. You do a great disservice to people who could be helped by reading these sites when you criticize them as you do. "measekite" wrote in message ...

Sorry to disappoint you, Measie, but you really don't **** me off. Your garbage is so outrageous and consistantly childish and crude that, to me, it is like water off a duck's back. I'm just happy to keep my responses to you going to let new participants see what a loose cannon you really are. Your continued attacks just brand you as immature and rude to all who see them. What you do is self-defeating and several of us are happy to keep you writing responses such as the one I am responding to so that every new participant has a daily lesson in why your posts can't be trusted. The only disturbing feature of your responses is the libelous nature of your changing quotes and defaming vendors and their products. I expect that this will eventually boomerang on you (no offense meant to my friends from OZ) and cause you some well deserved problems. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I'll repeat, writing in all caps is just another sign of your rude behaviour. |

Craw back into that slim hole you keep coming out of which is probably located in your mothers basement where you live. You are a good example of a real looser. You have nothing to offer this ng. Get lost and don't come back. Frank |
