Which inkjet for cheap refillables?
"Arthur Entlich" wrote in message news:5du4k.28951$gc5.26717@pd7urf2no... Probably the easiest to refill, if you are looking for dye inks, as opposed to pigments, is the Canon line. However, with the newer models you need to turn off the ink monitoring system and be cautious that the ink levels do not drop to empty, as the head can become damaged should you try to run it with an empty cartridge. Otherwise, you can still find a few sources for Epson style refillable cartridges from some 3rd party dealers. Art I haven't taken the plunge yet but I've been watching the feedback on a couple of Canon chip resetters that they are selling on EBAY. One comes from China and the other from Germany. The one from Germany has great feedback but I haven't seen any U.S. buyers yet and the one from China has hardly any feedback. I really don't want to void my warranty by disabling the ink monitor so I'm using the printer minimally until I decide what to do. I've been refilling the BCI-6 cartridges for years and so far I have not had clogging issues. |

I really don't want to void my warranty by disabling the ink monitor That certainly could happen. so I'm using the printer minimally until I decide what to do. If you want the best quality with the least risk of fading and the best out of the printhead then use Canon ink.

Not sure I would thank Canon for it... the German company that cracked
the reset code should probably be thanked. Of course, Canon may come up with some new methods of getting around that with the next line of printers. Epson is now making cartridges and printers that burn out the chip at a certain point. It seems they will go to no end in the lengths of skulduggery to try to befuddle ink refilling.

That is welcome news. It seems they will go to no end in the lengths of skulduggery to try to befuddle ink refilling. Why should they. They want to make money selling their overpriced ink and they have a right to do so.

Which of the currently available colour inkjets have good fast output, yet can take ink cart refills or cheap third party cartridges? Canon printers using CLI-8 chipped cartridges; since a month or so inexpensive chip resetters are available and refilling via the "German Method" is a snap. Also various 3th party cart's with or without chips are available. Results may vary, the OEM cat's are best but the cheap alternatives may be completely statisfactory. -- Veel plezier Have fun Bert |
