Waste Ink – lings

This request crops up a lot from people who want to use an adjustment utility that requires you to change the date on your computer to fool the utility into letting you use it

Tip: Remember to make a note of the current date before you start so you can return the date to today when you have finished

1. Click on the Control panel from the Start menu.
2. Go to “Clock, Language and Region.”
3. Click “Date and Time.”
4. Click the “Date and Time” tab and then “Change Date and Time.” Enter your password if prompted to do so.
5. Double-click the hour. Click the up or down arrows to set the correct hour, or type it manually.
6. Double-click the minutes. Use the up or down arrows to set the correct number of minutes after the hour, or type it manually.
7. Select the correct month from the dropdown menu on the calendar to the left of the clock.
8. Click the correct date on the calendar.
9. Set the correct year by using the up or down arrows next to the box with a year in it.
10. Click “OK” when you have finished setting the date and time.

Just a little nugget to tempt the taste buds while I spend a week offline

When I get back to the world of work and web I’ll be adding a number of new guides as well as providing info on a new kit that will also be available in the OctoInkjet product range soon

• R240 mod instructions
• R1900 mod instructions as well as few tips and tricks learned the hard way
• PX800FW images and instructions with thanks to Andrea
• The new WIBOX Double Header kit from OctoInkjet (connecting one/two printer(s) to a single waste tank)

Also worth noting that while I’m offline the OctoInkjet store will be offline to new orders but for the savvy, there’s a discount code on the home page that will work from 26th April to 2nd May 2009 as a small thank-you for waiting.
