Print Volume vs. Clogging

For quite a while now Measekite has been claiming that the only way to
avoid clogging with aftermarket ink is to print such a high volume that
the ink doesn't have time to dry in the heads and form a clog. About a
week ago, in another thread, I asked him exactly what print volume was
necessary to avoid clogging with aftermarket ink, and how long you could
go without printing with OEM ink before you'd see a clog. I'm still
waiting for an answer.

Measekite, I don't care which printer or ink you use for an example, and
you don't have to narrow the answers down too precisely. Just give me an
approximation. If you decide not to answer, I'll be forced to conclude
that you are (somehow) associated with an OEM ink supplier, and that you
refuse to admit the truth about inkjet clogging, that truth being that
aftermarket ink doesn't clog any more than OEM ink.

How about it, Measekite? Are you brave enough to back up your claims?

Get real TJ. You're dealing with a known liar and a brainless ****wit
moron of an idiot.
He is our resident imbecile loser.

I know. And I don't really expect a credible answer from him, because he
doesn't have one. But when he doesn't give a reasonable answer to a
perfectly reasonable question about his claims, it speaks volumes to the
newbies about his overall credibility, don't you think?

Measekite seems to have lost it


I have found no difference whether my printers went through 1 or 5 or
more cartridge changes per year. In other words: no streaks, clogging,
or even the smallest problem. They work exactly like their expensive OEM
cousins that cost 20 times more. At least I'm hoping OEM inks don't have
a clogging problem.... But when I see "clean" and "deep clean" cycles
recommended for my printer, I'm not so sure. ;-)

I do not believe you. If you do not like the Canon or its inks then
choose something else.

Sorry, if you not like my answer - especially when it's the truth,
then choose another newsgroup you can troll with your misinformation.

You can not believe people until you are blue in the face. The fact
remains that that there are users who use and are happy with
hobbicolors. I've used it my self and find it to be an acceptable
product on the ip5200. I'll buy MIS next time around just for laughs,
the cost is not that much higher.

But you are right measekite, if you don't like Canon or it's inks,
choose something else. I think Canon inks cost too dang much, so I
choose to go either hobbicolors or mis, I may also go formulabs.
That's the wonderful thing about choice.
 
and what ng do you troll. i guess if you get into college you will have
too much homework.

It may be possible for your average person to tell the difference
between aftermarket and OEM on a given printer, but one would be hard
pressed to say which one is which, not without prior experence.
Hobbicolors on the ip5200 provides a very good color match, and no
issue what so ever thus far with clogging. If it does, as measekite
pointed out in the past it's as cheap to buy a base model printer as
OEM ink, so it's simply NOT an issue.

Aftermarket ink may be good enough for a given user's needs. They
might want OEM, OEM does tend to outpeform the aftermarket ink i've met
in terms of lightfastness and gasfastness, but at 8 to 10 times the
cost.

I believe him. His experience parallels my own in this matter. I had a
Canon calculator once. Didn't care for it. I haven't purchased a Canon
product since. That's MY choice.

But Measekite, you haven't answered my question yet.

Follow the advice of wiser members of this NG: do not feed the troll,
he/she/it is already full of shit.

But it's such a weak, pitiful little troll, and it's so much fun to feed
it once in a while.
