(in article ):


My P600 died and I have a lot of new 760 ink

That seems to be premature. What happened?

If anyone wants it let me know. Will sell cheap.

My R2880 still breathes, but does not feed on P600 carts.



I found a place on-line that will buy them, waiting for a quote.


Our P600 was clogging all the time.


Though I am good with computer repair work I don't fool with printers
much so took it to a place that said they could entirely flush it out
and make it good as new.


That was two months ago and I called them frequently for the first two
weeks and they said they were " still trying."


Finally I bought a Canon Pro-10 and my wife loves it.


She had an important project and just could not dink around.

Nice thing with the Canon is if the heads ever would go, they are user
replaceable. No more Epson for us I'm afraid.

I have Canon Pro 9000 and Pro 100 printers. They both sat unused for a
very long time - well over a year. I printed some test prints the
other day, and they were both fine. I was shocked, but it says
something good about Canon printers.That's not to say anything bad
about Epson, though. I have no experience with them.

BTW, Canon says to print something at least once a month.




Glad your Canon worked.

With the Epson, it did sit once for a few months but it had clogging
problems even before that...then it got worse.

Though my wife could clear it, it took many attempts and a lot of ink.

I have had one hell of a year and hardly got to use my Epson P800. It
certainly sat for months without being used. In view of your past
experiences I ran a comprehensive test on the print nozzles and all
are still OK. I don't know what happened to your P600 to cause it to
have so many problems. It's not typical in my experience.
