Epson wore out

And yet my Epson clogged on the 2nd day, the replacement clogged o
the 4th day and all with Epson inks, I only reverted to 3rd part
when the 2nd printer started going the same way

Since I don't grow icicles, I don't use in a bakery next to an ove
& it's not in direct sunlight or near a window it still clogged

I have had my Canon well over 3 months it not needed one manual hea
clean or nozzle check to date

It's the fact of clogging that creates this atmosphere in this NG, yo
only need to look at user revies on various shopping sites, you onl
need to count the number of complaints

Epson always comes up trumps for clogging, for printing defects an
not just on this NG, it's alright saying they produced this and the
invented that, what is a firm that sells cheap printers to fleec
everyone with their overpriced ink cartridges that does not last tw
minutes, just how much of your hard earned cash goes on paper, on
source revealed with a C84 that there is 20% of ink left when the re
light comes on - why will Epson not comment on this..

Various printer manufacturers could easily make all these 3rd part
ink sales go burst by making their cartridges cheap, why won'
they..? They will no doubt boost their ink sales tenfold, but the
wont

There is one simple reason for the chipped tank and it ain't to sto
you refilling them, it's to prevent the ink tank running dry and m
reckoning there's what I believe to be a very good valid reason fo
leaving a fair amount of ink in the tank

I really don't see a problem with my Epson R200 running with dry ink
tanks at all. Not only once but constantly I print with a few cartridges
bone dry. For sometime I thought I was killing my R200 which I was
about to give up. Some cartridges were empty and it was later put aside
for at least 2 months. I decided to give it a try by installing a set of
new cartridges. Man, it took no time to surprise me. Everything worked
just like new. Not a missing pixel whatsoever. It cost me a set of new
carts for me to find out that the chip must not be for the purpose of
preventing you from running with dry ink tanks.
