my fingers are covered in black - why
Hi
I have a Canon IP4200 and I refill my carts Recently I have noticed that when handling [to cut] glossy photo paper printed for a DVD cover, that my fingers are covered in black, but no other colour I haven't changed paper and this has only started to happen I'm beginning to think that one of the black inks isn't compatible and it is only now {after many months} that compatible ink has totally taken over the cart without mixing with the remaining original canon ink (if you get my drift) Has anyone else experienced this problem and come up with a solution other than experimenting using original black carts? **measekite need not respond** -- Martin ©¿©¬ |

Try Canon ink. I haven't changed paper and this has only started to happen I'm beginning to think that one of the black inks isn't compatible There is no such thing as compatible. It is just a word made by fly by niters to get you to buy the crap ink and to make you think you are saving money when you are really spending less and getting less. and it is only now {after many months} that compatible ink has totally taken over the cart without mixing with the remaining original canon ink (if you get my drift) Has anyone else experienced this problem and come up with a solution other than experimenting using original black carts? Buy Canon ink. I like it when I hear about these issues. I told you all about the perils of the crap ink. Still many do not want to admit that it is best to use ink recommended by the mfg. You rarely read about any issues with OEM ink. It is always the cheapos that have the problems. Here is proof. Other postings detail head clogging, photo fading, poor to not being right photo quality, color not matching original and no color profiles for the paper. But you know what they say Fool me once Shame on you Fool me twice Shame on me Failing to admit it Makes an idiot **measekite need not respond** |

Thats why I changed over to aftermarket inks. Canon was fooling me into beleiving that thier inks were superiour...to only find out from a Canon rep that thier ink is only as good as generic ink. But there are still fools out there that only use OEM. Fool me once....only. |
