Comments on: Reset Me then Forget Me? http://www.wasteink.co.uk/reset-printer-then-forget/ Stopping waste ink creating a waste printer Wed, 25 Jan 2012 13:29:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: admin http://www.wasteink.co.uk/reset-printer-then-forget/comment-page-1/#comment-264 admin Fri, 04 Nov 2011 20:52:13 +0000 http://www.wasteink.co.uk/?p=696#comment-264 Hi, Sorry I missed this before now... You should be able to revive the printer again provided you install an external waste kit sooner rather than later. You may have to purge the tubes running from the cleaning/resting pad using a syringe to suck things through.. Failing that some suitable cleaning solution capable of breaking down your printers ink. The other thing worth noting is that I'd put that printer on a lipped tray as it could be overfull and likely to leak too... Hope that helps, albeit late...

I have an R1900 with CIS and, yes, the inkpads have been silently and sneakily filling up to the point that, without any warnings being shown, I got the brown gooey stripe on the back when I printed some A3+ images. It wasn't until I searched t'interweb for solutions that I learned of your external waste ink system. Too late! Or is it? Is there a successful way to replace sodding - whoops! sorry, I mean sodden - inkpads? If so how??? Yours in hope Hi there.

I already have a CIS installed. My waste pad is under the tube in full visibility, you can even touch it. I have had this printer for 2 months and already it has used 10% on the one pad (according to reset utility). I have printed about 200 images. Therefore i'll need to reset it in 18 months.

Yep, that's another "great" way to find your printer has filled its pads and then some Sadly this is one of the things with CIS equipped printers..

I had that printer 5 years and never once did I get or have a problem with the waste ink messages, it just printed on and beautifully on. The waste ink was just bursting to get out but was all right until some courier turned the box upside down. I think the waste build up is slower on CISS equipped printers and mine was at the point of warning when this accident happened. I am still pinning at the loss sob sob.. P.S. I never reset the waste counter. (The hat) Yo Martin yes I know about the waste ink I am sure you read about my undoing when I gave my flagship printer to my Son and he sent it to canon for repair.
