Hi everybody, I'm Frank's lover. However, I'm sort of falling for Measekite also. See, I've been dating Frank for many months. He's okay, however he's not satisfying me. (If you know what I mean.) The problem is that Frank's "thing" is not genuine, so it varies from time to time...sometimes he...

one with a parallel port. Thanks

I only use a printer occasionally; maybe once per week, for a couple/few pages. I am not in a situation where I cam simply borrow another one to print. I was using an HP printer. However I had many paper feed problems, as did at least one other person I knew. So I bought an Epson or two,...

My Epson 1280 recently began malfunctioning. If it is off for more than about 15 seconds, then powered up, it goes through a prime or clean and then at first print it says new non-OEM carts are installed. It does this every time it's been turned back on after being off for about 15 seconds or...

It is unbelievable that: Some posters think I work for Canon. Some posters think I am Crankie. Some posters think I am Stan. Some posters think I am some other poster.

Despite trying to find previous posts on this topic it was difficult to tap into anything recent. If I'm beating a dead horse please be so kind as to redirect me to the appropriate thread. We need a multi-function printer. We want to print, scan, fax and copy. I will be using a MacBook Pro, my...

I have been using MIS ink with fairly good success. I have read on nifty forum that Inktec ink may be better in terms of longevity. I don't see it mentioned on this group very often. What kind of experiences have people had with it? I see sources for the refill ink, but pre filled cartridges...

What can this error possibly be indicating? HP OfficeJet d145 No Black Supply: Insert ink cartridge NOW to prevent damaging the product. I've inserted and reinserted the HP black ink printer cartridge #14 c5011a but I still all of a sudden get this error from my HP printer saying "No Black...

I had decided to buy an HP printer for my "infrequent color printing" wife based on the print head being included in the cartrige (clogged head = new cartridge = problem solved) Then, the more I thought about the idea/cost of replacing an entire 3 color cartridge when one color runs out, I took...

A friend replaced the ink cartridges on two printers and they both are printing blank pages. She says she took the protective strips of plastic off. What else could it be? HP Digital Copier 610 Epson Stylus CX5400 Thanks, : -)

I am tired of refilling Ink carts for my inkjet printer. and having to do head cleanings due to infrequent use. I am no longer doing photo work so don't need the ultimate color print, As I may do one or two once in a while, consequently I think it's time to switch to a Color Laser printer. Have...

I am looking for a color printer to use for printing full color catalog pages. I am very concerned about the consumables cost. The pages are largely photos, so average ink coverage is about 50%. Does anyone have any feedback on actual cost per page for this type of application. I am...

I've just received my Epson 2200 printer, and I'm *very* pleased indeed! :) One little thing which I've noticed is that the results on plain paper seem to be quite a bit superior to my previous Epson 1270 - this is handy for those of us who don't have a second printer for "run of the mill"...

Yes, Lexmark is now in the Spyware business! Just the other day I purchased a new Lexmark X5250 All-in-one printer. I installed it as per the instructions and monitored the install with Norton as I do with all new software. On reviewing the install log I noticed a program called Lx_CATS had been...

Can I get some yeas or nays on this printer from owners? Most of the reviews are favorable, but I put more stock in comments from day-to-day users. TIA.

Is it possible to still print in black when color cartriges are used up on the Canon i960, if so, how?

Hi folks, has anyone out there ever managed to troubleshoot the DC power supply in one of these dinosaurs? Mine's developed a fault in the 24V supply, killing the fans and main motor 1 minute after powerup. Input from the AC module remains stable (220VAC) , as does the 5V output since the panel...

I have a problem, do I buy genuine epson cartridges or compatibles. I have been scouring the internet, and there are so many different types of compatibles. Where do I go from here.

I have been lurking and reading this group for about 3 months because my Epson C84 had become unreliable. Ok, so I knew I was going to eventually have to replace it. At first I leaned toward a different model Epson. Then I leaned toward the Canon. Then the HP had its chance (nozzles in...

Hi, I picked up an inexpensive HP LJ 4L for printing simple b/w graphics. The images i print are 300dpi or less so i thought this printer would be ideal. Whenever i print a graphics however, I get really poor quality prints. I have played around with the advanced controls under the Windows XP...
