William Levitt Thank you William!When you have as many printers on hand, you have to prioritize between when you use OEM and 3rd Party ( Super cheap and more expensive ) otherwise you'd go broke. I am constantly testing inks from various sources and when I find something that works well, I stick to it and try to share the results with everyone. There are some brand new entries in the ink world that are very, very good. Once I am able to fully disclose these inks and where to get them, I will spill the beans! Joe AKA Jtoolman
+Jose Rodriguez Thank you for your education of us trying to make the most of Photo printing. Are you at the point where you can spill the beans on Very good 3rd party inks for Canon Pixma Pro-100?
Hi! I just bought canon Pixma pro100. What’s the best third party ink cartridges to buy? I just want to use my printer for crafts and stickers for personal use not for selling so I’m not so interested in terms of printing photos etc.. can you please recommend me a good third party brand ?
Hi Jose. I just found and subscribed to your videos this weekend and I'm binge watching your Sublimation series. Thank you for great videos and information. I am planning to purchase an Epson WF7110 (for wide print area) and install the Precision Colors inks for these printers. I'm not sure about buying the bundle as I do not trust the ink that may come with it. My question is, when I buy the printer, PC inks (as you highly recommended) and new empty cartridges can I just follow video directions to install the sub inks? Or will there be other steps after ink installation and before installing on my computer? This is for home/hobby use right now but I want the best results I can get for my projects. Thank you.
Hi--I really enjoy your Canon pro100 tutorials! I have that as well as a pro9000 that has just died after many years,, and I have oem cartridges left over. If I replace them with a pro100 chip, do I have to flush them, or can I still use the ink inside?
The inks are indeed different so you would have to flush them. But where would you get lone CLI-42 chips from??? If you not make sense to swop chips from CLI-42 which are properly labeled and put them on CLI-8s! Why would you do that?
silly me--I should have mentioned that I have oem Yellow cli-8s: the refilled oem yellow cli-42 is coming out pale, so I want to swap that chip and put it on the cli-8. Does that make sense? Can you tell I'm new to this stuff ;-D?
Hello Jose, I have an Epson XP-960 and your videos on cleaning nozzle clogs in Epson printers helped me a lot with it. In this video you show Vivid Magenta and Magenta OEM inks that can be bought in big cartidges. Do you think it is sensible to use them in my printer?
Hi Jose.. Can you buy Canon OME inks for the pro-100 ? also, wheres the best place to store your ink, are they supposed to be kept cold, like in a fridge ? Thanks Geoff
No there is no source for bulk OEM inks for the PRO-100. For storage, Cool room temp is plenty. Dye inks can be stored if unopened in the fridge but not really required.
Jose, thank you very much for all the useful information here. I have a question. Can I use ink from a T6063 Ink Cartridge (for example) for Stylus Pro 3800? Of which large cartridges of EPSON I can use ink for Stylus Pro 3800? Is the same ink inside or there are differences? I'm sorry if you have already looked at this topic but I do not find any information yet...
@@cheo1949 Ty for answering - i have the same question - i am wondering if there is a list anywhere of all the printers (or print cartridges) in this category? I don't want to buy the wrong thing, and i'm really struggling to find a complete list on google. (I have a p600 that I'd like to buy bigger/expired cartridges to refill as per your advice)
Hi Jose I lately get an Epsom xp-950 and I am looking for reliable 3rd party ink solutions. And it really confuse me about all those different type of spec of cartridge they invent. Is there any brand or manufacturers you confident to recommend whether I can find them ? Also highly appreciated if some online store you can guide me to. Cubic

This is for personal use and want to purchase ink economically. I appreciate any suggestions and help. Yes I did find Epson ink sets much cheaper then the local stores.
Hola José. For the pro-10, if I use precision colors ink, should I remove all oem ink before refilling them? Apologies if this is a nice question, but quite new to printing at this level. Other quick question, do you use precision colors red ink for the pro-10, or you stick to red one? Thanks a lot and keep up the good videos!!!
No just refill EACH carts with the Signature Edition matching colors. Let them go empty, reset and fill with the PC inks. You can use either OEM red for MAX results or the SE red which if you saw my videos works perfectly well for the vast majority of images.
Joe, I just got a new Pixma 100 for well nothing after rebates. Ive been a subscriber for a while but not really printing at home much even tho I have a Epson 1400. Anyway I want to print more, and would like to refill my inks. I have watched your videos but would like to know what I need to do to reset the chip on the Pixma 100. Also what and where I can purchase the ink and supplies such as bottles I’ll need. My wife was not too keen on me printing at home so I’d love to shave some money off printing costs. Thank you, jorge
Go to www.precisioncolors.com and order a full kit For the PRO100. The carts will require modification to be able to be refilled. With the initial kit your I'll get a chip reseter. But most of all.watch ALL my CLI-42 videos on that playlist. Also watch the videos on the precisioncolors website pertaining to the PRO-100/CLI42. You are about to enter a new world and it has to be done just right as the Canon print heads are not get forgiving with carts that are not properly modified and refilled.
You can buy a set of pre modified carts here in EBAY. www.ebay.com/itm/GENUINE-MODIFIED-CANON-OEM-EMPTY-8PK-CLI-42-INK-CARTRIDGES-FOR-PRO-100-PRINTER/183313119049?epid=1541610979&hash=item2aae503749%3Ag%3ANC0AAOSww1Fa2NQi&_sacat=0&_nkw=canon+cli-42+empty&_from=R40&rt=nc&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1311.R2.TR2.TRC0.A0.H0.Xempty+cli42.TRS0.TSS0 Or if you search for Canon CLI-42 EMPTY. You will find other offers for empty carts but not pre modified ones. Do not buy refillables!!!!! They are sub standard compared to original carts.
Hi Joe, I just ordered the empty carts from the eBay link you provided. Next I looked at the canon options on precision’s website... which “kit” do you recommend? There are several on there with various price points. Many thanks- jorge
They are all the same inks and resetter. The difference is volume of ink and whether you want to use syringes or squeeze bottles with needles to load the ink into the carts. That choice is totally up to you.
Hi Jose, Love your channel... I just bought a Pixma Pro 100 from B&H with the rebate and I just bought another brand new with no ink or print head on eBay for $40 with shipping as a back up. I also bought a set of used cartridges and another set of 3rd party emptys with re-settable chips. And I bought the deluxe package of Inks with resetter and bottles with the 2" needles from Precision Colors My question is how close is PC inks? Can I fill and top off the OEM cartridges with the PC ink except for the yellow cartridge which Precision Colors will send me a replacement to use as I know the yellow can't be mixed with the OEM ink. What do you think I could or should do with the above resources? Thanks Jose.....Keep up the great work! Cliff Medina
It looks like you have everything you will need. The inks are very c!ose. Nothing is ever a perfect match to OEM. But you should be able to use OEM ICC profilprofiles and a after sever refills with PC inks end you can use PCs own custom ICC profiles which are free and available for many common papers. Also remember that you be refilling for about 60 cents a cart instead of $14 a piece.
Hey Jose! Your videos are awesome! Too bad I’m currently living in Asia and Chinese inks are the only ones that available to me. Could you please recommend one Chinese ink brand that is still performing well in the canon pro 100? Thanks so much!
You have realize that you just never know the origin of inks from EBAY or Alibaba or what comes in compatible carts. Every time you buy those...the inks are different of from different sources. So I have to retract my original comment as I have used them but pretty much immediately stopped. I only use inks from large oem carts or sources I can verify.
Just ordered my pro 100 from B&H for about $20 after rebate and paper savings. I have no idea what any of this technical stuff is involving printing. I think I want to refill cartridges. Can I refill the oem cartridges with ink from precision colors? Do I need new cartridges? What would you do? Thanks for your help.
None. The latest is the PRO 1 videos. I do not have the funds too be able to buy the latest of every printer. I only work with dedicated photo printers at this time.
I do not I do not sell anyting such as cartridges. Besides P400 oem cartridges cannot be modified for refilling. You must use refillable 3rd party cartridges which are available from most third-party sellers and EBAY.
Hi Jose !! Got a quick question on the canon pro 100 yellow ink problem. Even when you get the new replacement cart....and fill that with the Precision Color yellow ink...what happens when that mixes with the remaining old ink that is in the nozzle?? How can I avoid that gelling up when I first install the new ink? Thanks for any ideas John
+Sharon Wignot Nothing will really happen. The problems occur only when PC ink mixes with very diluted yellow OEM ink remnant that remain in the original yellow cart. Once you load the replacement cart filled with PC yellow it will pushout all remnants of OEM yellow ink out of the print head during the purge cycle when you install e cart.
Jose, gracias por tus videos, me gustaria saber si me recomiendas usar el dispositivo de continuous ink system para mi canon mx922, gracias y mucho exitos
Hello Jose!! first of all thanks for sharing all your very useful vlogs ; ) Do you know any realiable THIRTH PARTY Ink manufacture in UK? THANKS Javier
Hi Jose. Any good third party ink for Pixma Pro 10? Ever heard of Lovetoner? They sell refurbished/compatible cartridges. Appreciate your response, thanks!
No. You would only be to print black red or lines. You would need a second special black and grays inkjet like pornographic ink from uninstall and then a rip software to be able to print images.
is pigment ink, pigment ink across the board? What i mean by that, would you use pigment ink for canon and epson? or to be clearer, is there universal pigment ink?
No the is not such thing as Universal ink Pigment or otherwise!!!!! If you see it being sold that way, run a fast as you can. For example even with OEM inks. If you use Epson pigment ink on a canon printer, you will end up with a burned up print head. The physical characteristics of inks differ from printer to printer. So no!!! Nothing is universal!!
Jose : quick question regarding ink refilling on the Canon Pro 100. I visited a website called inkproducts.com and was considering investing in a ink refillable system that included carts (non OEM) with chips and a chip program re-setter. Do you have any experience with this ink replacement system (sku 75911)? Can you give me any pointers? Thanks, Moe (from NC) BTW - your video's are really inspiring and helpful !
+Mike Maldonado I would not recommend that you use anything but OEM carts to refill. Any and all refillables that have ever been designed for CANON printers have inferior ink feed properties. If there is a quick way to kill a CANON print head is to starve it of ink during use. So I would tell you to just modify your OEM carts as shown in the Precisioncolors.com web site and use their complete refilling set as it is 100% tested by me! The inks are made in the USA as opposed to CHINA like the company you are considering.
AS many times as you can reset its chip. How many times is that? No clue. But simply put. A cart can be refilled and reset many times. Will likely out live your PRO10. As it will eventually stop working once it's internal wast ink pads fill up. At that point you just replace the unit as its repair will be prohibitive.
Hi Jose, I have a Canon pro 100 and am concern about third party ink cartridges sold by inkjets.com. Are you familiar with this company and if so would you recommend me using them. Please advise.
Absolutely DO NOT buy Compatible Cartridges. The only approach you should even consider is to buy the resetter for the Original PGI-72 Carts Inks from Precisioncolors and watch my videos on how to refill these types of carts. The are identical to the early PGI-9 carts that I have videos on. Trust me!!!
Thanks for this, Jose. I have used a few "brands" of 3rd party inks on Canon printers. One I like is G&G (probably from China), but I have had clogging problems (which is probably due to not using the printer.) There is also a lot of discussion around 3rd party inks causing clogging out there in the forums. There are a lot of "no-name" "compatible" inks available out there where you don't really know the manufacturer of ink or even if it is consistent each time you buy it. How do you know which ones you can trust? One good quality supplier that keeps coming up is Precision Colors. They unfortunately do not have prefilled cartridges for my printer, so I am going to try their ink and empty cartridges. I had a set of their inks with my Canon iP8500, but I got cheap (leaky) empty cartridges from eBay and ended up burning up the printhead. Anyway, if you hear of anyone who wants to get some free ink to try for the cost of mailing from Vancouver Island Canada, I have used ones from this set: www.precisioncolors.com/C8A.html
Hi Jose I have a epson r2880 and I live in germany. I found a reliable ink company but they only do lfp inks. would any of their ultrachrome k3 inks work or what lfp printer is it equivalent with. also do you have any eu source u recommend if i wanna get new refillable cartridges?
I don't know what you mean by IFP printer. The R2880 required Ultrachrome K3 with vivid magenta. You get it either from large volume carts from large Epson printers using the same inkset and you harvest the ink and use it for refilling. Or you buy equivalent third party inks and use ten! I recommend either from Marrutt or www.octoinkjet.co.uk
Thanks, I'm not familiar with photo printers, I have a D7100 and I would like to buy a printer for personal use. I don't know what to buy and in Costa Rica printers are very expensive
So I assume that is a canon DSLR? So you are going to need a photo printer if that is what you want to do. Any printer with 6 or more colors should produce great results. Canon would be my recommendation for you. What model? Whatever you can afford. So I can not give you an exact answer.
Hi José! I bought a kit of ACR cartridges from Inkuten for the Canon Pro-100. They worked perfectly until I decided to fill it up onde of this cartridges. Although filled with ink, I get the message in the settings menu "the remaining level of the following ink can not be correctly detected" or "the following ink may have run out". Would you know how I can solve this problem without having a chip reseter?
Nope i do not know what you could possibly do. A reseter MIGHTY work but the moral is you should always modify and reset and refill your own CLI-42 carts!!!! Why would have gone through that route when there is a proven and reliable method?
Do you still have the originals? It's not too late if you still do. The chips on these carts are totally unreliable and the cart bodies themselves do not fit or seal the print head ink ports optimally so they pretty much always fail.
Ink sets are custom matched and sometimes can not be combined just because a color has the same name. In the case OF EPSON K3 ink set whether non vivid or vivid, you can.
Dear Sir, I find it great but as I am not trained in institute or at other place I am having some problem about the calibrating the monitor , is there any possibility by that i can get idea to certain point say Contrast -50 Brightness at 50 so on by that i can land near to calibrating pointing Thanks Rohtash
Rohtash Singh It is very difficult to calibrate your monitor "By Eye" by using the manual adjustments and buttons on the monitor itself. To do a proper job you need to use a piece of calibrating hardware such as sold by X-Rite - Spider and others.Simply adjusting contrast and brightness does not calibrate a monitor. You must use a calibrator to also properly calibrate your monitor's color response. Out of the box they are mostly all too blue and too bright.Yes you can do it by eye but it will never be as accurate and correct as it needs to be for editing and printing images.Joe AKA Jtoolman
Dear Sir, It has been said in Indian Religious Scripture Called Vedas the person who invent and help other Called "Rishi " (Saint) Thanks for the act of Kindness ,I will go for X Rite Spider Rohtash Singh
I wish you were my neighbor.... lol I have a problem resetting my Epson photo stylus 1400 it had empty cartiges i bought new Epson inks put them in and it says there all empty. I returned them and bought a new set of six colors put them in and they also say there empty???? please help
You are is in OEM inks? Of that is the case the printer might be damaged. Try this first. Turn it off mmd unplug it from the outlet. Wait about half an hour. Re plug and power up. Of it still recognize the presence of cart, of is damaged. Of you instead are using compatibles then you might need to change your source. But more likely, there ois something wrong with it.
Sorry I am not familiar with the inks used. Also these converted printers no longer resemble the original. I think TH-cam will be your best hope for info.
Jose ,Gracias estoy un poco confundido ,creo que entendí que las printer se le deben comprar algunos ink originales y otros de 3ra compañias ,especialmente los que traen el ink con un aditamento glossy ..podrias explicarme un poco mas en español..disculpame..Bendiciones..Jhon
Creo que te refieres a ciertas tintas magenta que no tienen mucho brillo. Pero ahora las tintas PCK3HD vendidas por precisioncolors eliminated los problemas de brillo. I no tienes que mesclar diferentes tintas.
We have been using the New Compatible Canon HD Inks supplied at The Printer Toner Company, they are amazing. Not sure what the new technology is though you can see them here www.tptc.biz/canon-pgi-550xl--cli-551xl-ink-cartridge-multipack-high-capacity-2-black--3-colour--pgi-550xlcli-551bkcmy---refurbished-8738-p.asp
I don't really know. You are using them? And on what printer? From the look of the set they are for a simple AIO type printer so they would not have to be up to the level of what one would need for feeding dedicate pro photo printers and still match oem.
Hi, Jose, will it be possible for me to contact you on email, I have a question dealing with ink for a printer I got. It's a specialized printer and I am not comfortable give all the details
It depends on the inks. I am using 3rd party inks that are as good or even a bit better in color rendition and accuracy as originals. Where they fall short is longevity but that easy to mitigate.
Hi Mr Jose. Where I can buy the refillable cartridge for canon Pro 10. Thanks
You reset and refill your originals NOT refillables.
I'm investing in a Canon Pixima Pro 100 and I've watched your wonderful video's and researched the Precision web-site.
Questions :
What is the best (cheapest) way to get an extra set of carts ?
a.) CLI 42 on e-bay ? How can I be sure they have the chip that I can use Precision's resetter ?
b.) CLI 8 from Precision and another resetter for those ?

I do not I do not sell anyting such as cartridges. Besides P400 oem cartridges cannot be modified for refilling. You must use refillable 3rd party cartridges which are available from most third-party sellers and EBAY.
Hi Jose !!
Got a quick question on the canon pro 100 yellow ink problem. Even when you get the new replacement cart....and fill that with the Precision Color yellow ink...what happens when that mixes with the remaining old ink that is in the nozzle?? How can I avoid that gelling up when I first install the new ink? Thanks for any ideas
John
+Sharon Wignot Nothing will really happen. The problems occur only when PC ink mixes with very diluted yellow OEM ink remnant that remain in the original yellow cart. Once you load the replacement cart filled with PC yellow it will pushout all remnants of OEM yellow ink out of the print head during the purge cycle when you install e cart.
Jose, gracias por tus videos, me gustaria saber si me recomiendas usar el dispositivo de continuous ink system para mi canon mx922, gracias y mucho exitos
Los CISS no son recomendados para uso con canon. Solamente para Epson.
Jose Rodriguez mil gracias
OK dumb question whats the best easiest way to get the ink out of those v large cartridges. Idea is to use in R1800.
Stick a plain tipped syringe into the port, tilt to the side a little and aspirate.
Hello Jose!! first of all thanks for sharing all your very useful vlogs ; )
Do you know any realiable THIRTH PARTY Ink manufacture in UK?
THANKS
Javier
Marrutt and www.octoinkjet.co.uk
Hi Jose. Any good third party ink for Pixma Pro 10? Ever heard of Lovetoner? They sell refurbished/compatible cartridges.
Appreciate your response, thanks!
precisioncolors.com Read the PDF and look at my latest videos about Updates! CANADA USA and UK / Ireland only!
Ok will do! Thnx for the quick response!
Can I use black ink in all the cartridges? Making an all black print. Can the printer determine what color the ink is?
No. You would only be to print black red or lines. You would need a second special black and grays inkjet like pornographic ink from uninstall and then a rip software to be able to print images.
Jose do you sell the ink set for canon pixma pro 100
No. I am not a dealer.
is pigment ink, pigment ink across the board? What i mean by that, would you use pigment ink for canon and epson? or to be clearer, is there universal pigment ink?
No the is not such thing as Universal ink Pigment or otherwise!!!!!
If you see it being sold that way, run a fast as you can.
For example even with OEM inks. If you use Epson pigment ink on a canon printer, you will end up with a burned up print head. The physical characteristics of inks differ from printer to printer. So no!!! Nothing is universal!!
Jose : quick question regarding ink refilling on the Canon Pro 100. I visited a website called inkproducts.com and was considering investing in a ink refillable system that included carts (non OEM) with chips and a chip program re-setter. Do you have any experience with this ink replacement system (sku 75911)? Can you give me any pointers?
Thanks,
Moe (from NC)
BTW - your video's are really inspiring and helpful !
+Mike Maldonado I would not recommend that you use anything but OEM carts to refill. Any and all refillables that have ever been designed for CANON printers have inferior ink feed properties. If there is a quick way to kill a CANON print head is to starve it of ink during use. So I would tell you to just modify your OEM carts as shown in the Precisioncolors.com web site and use their complete refilling set as it is 100% tested by me! The inks are made in the USA as opposed to CHINA like the company you are considering.
+Jose Rodriguez Thanks very much Jose. That's the input i was looking for. Much appreciated. I just ordered my refill kit from Precision Colors.
+Mike Maldonado Awesome! Is you need any help, you know where to come to!
How many times do you think I can refill a canon PGI-72 cart?
AS many times as you can reset its chip. How many times is that? No clue. But simply put. A cart can be refilled and reset many times. Will likely out live your PRO10. As it will eventually stop working once it's internal wast ink pads fill up. At that point you just replace the unit as its repair will be prohibitive.
Hi Jose, I have a Canon pro 100 and am concern about third party ink cartridges sold by inkjets.com. Are you familiar with this company and if so would you recommend me using them. Please advise.
Absolutely DO NOT buy Compatible Cartridges. The only approach you should even consider is to buy the resetter for the Original PGI-72 Carts Inks from Precisioncolors and watch my videos on how to refill these types of carts. The are identical to the early PGI-9 carts that I have videos on. Trust me!!!
Ok, do you recommend OCP inks? I want to use them in a canon pixma IP4600
Never used them except on EPSON printers.
Hello Master , where should I buy ink for pixma 100 ? Please sir .
we.precisioncolors.com of if not in North America then eBay.
Thank You Master.
Thanks for this, Jose. I have used a few "brands" of 3rd party inks on Canon printers. One I like is G&G (probably from China), but I have had clogging problems (which is probably due to not using the printer.) There is also a lot of discussion around 3rd party inks causing clogging out there in the forums. There are a lot of "no-name" "compatible" inks available out there where you don't really know the manufacturer of ink or even if it is consistent each time you buy it. How do you know which ones you can trust?
One good quality supplier that keeps coming up is Precision Colors. They unfortunately do not have prefilled cartridges for my printer, so I am going to try their ink and empty cartridges. I had a set of their inks with my Canon iP8500, but I got cheap (leaky) empty cartridges from eBay and ended up burning up the printhead. Anyway, if you hear of anyone who wants to get some free ink to try for the cost of mailing from Vancouver Island Canada, I have used ones from this set: www.precisioncolors.com/C8A.html
Never ever use refillables. Use your own oem carts, modify them, reset and refill them.form the best reliability and performance.
Thanks for all your great advice, Jose.
Hi Jose I have a epson r2880 and I live in germany. I found a reliable ink company but they only do lfp inks. would any of their ultrachrome k3 inks work or what lfp printer is it equivalent with. also do you have any eu source u recommend if i wanna get new refillable cartridges?
I don't know what you mean by IFP printer.
The R2880 required Ultrachrome K3 with vivid magenta.
You get it either from large volume carts from large Epson printers using the same inkset and you harvest the ink and use it for refilling.
Or you buy equivalent third party inks and use ten!
I recommend either from Marrutt or www.octoinkjet.co.uk
Hello Jose, I'm looking for epson 73n to use it in Tx220, what do you recommend? I was looking in amazon and ebay buy not sure what cartridges to buy
I am not so sure I know that Epson model. I tend to concentrate on dedicated photo printer models so I have to apologize.
Thanks, I'm not familiar with photo printers, I have a D7100 and I would like to buy a printer for personal use. I don't know what to buy and in Costa Rica printers are very expensive
So I assume that is a canon DSLR? So you are going to need a photo printer if that is what you want to do. Any printer with 6 or more colors should produce great results. Canon would be my recommendation for you. What model? Whatever you can afford. So I can not give you an exact answer.
Is the Image specialist pigment ink for the Epson R1900 a substitute for R1800?
Well, yes. But it is a bit different too. The R1800 used blue and the R1900 introduces orange.
Hi José! I bought a kit of ACR cartridges from Inkuten for the Canon Pro-100. They worked perfectly until I decided to fill it up onde of this cartridges. Although filled with ink, I get the message in the settings menu "the remaining level of the following ink can not be correctly detected" or "the following ink may have run out". Would you know how I can solve this problem without having a chip reseter?
Nope i do not know what you could possibly do. A reseter MIGHTY work but the moral is you should always modify and reset and refill your own CLI-42 carts!!!! Why would have gone through that route when there is a proven and reliable method?
I should have known your youtube channel before buying the cartridge! Anyway thank you very much for the answer! Have a nice weekend!
Do you still have the originals? It's not too late if you still do. The chips on these carts are totally unreliable and the cart bodies themselves do not fit or seal the print head ink ports optimally so they pretty much always fail.
if i get those large ink cartridges off ebay can i siphon the ink and use it with t126 cartridges or is the ink a slightly different color?
Ink sets are custom matched and sometimes can not be combined just because a color has the same name. In the case OF EPSON K3 ink set whether non vivid or vivid, you can.
Thank you.
No problem
Dear Sir, I find it great but as I am not trained in institute or at other place I am having some problem about the calibrating the monitor , is there any possibility by that i can get idea to certain point say Contrast -50 Brightness at 50 so on by that i can land near to calibrating pointing
Thanks Rohtash
Rohtash Singh It is very difficult to calibrate your monitor "By Eye" by using the manual adjustments and buttons on the monitor itself. To do a proper job you need to use a piece of calibrating hardware such as sold by X-Rite - Spider and others.Simply adjusting contrast and brightness does not calibrate a monitor. You must use a calibrator to also properly calibrate your monitor's color response. Out of the box they are mostly all too blue and too bright.Yes you can do it by eye but it will never be as accurate and correct as it needs to be for editing and printing images.Joe AKA Jtoolman
Dear Sir,
It has been said in Indian Religious Scripture Called Vedas the person who invent and help other Called "Rishi " (Saint)
Thanks for the act of Kindness ,I will go for X Rite Spider
Rohtash Singh
That should get you there.

Hey what happen when you fill this photo ink into pen......
Which ink? wouldn't It be a lot cheaper to just get regular pen ink?
I wish you were my neighbor.... lol I have a problem resetting my Epson photo stylus 1400 it had empty cartiges i bought new Epson inks put them in and it says there all empty. I returned them and bought a new set of six colors put them in and they also say there empty???? please help
You are is in OEM inks? Of that is the case the printer might be damaged. Try this first. Turn it off mmd unplug it from the outlet. Wait about half an hour. Re plug and power up. Of it still recognize the presence of cart, of is damaged. Of you instead are using compatibles then you might need to change your source. But more likely, there ois something wrong with it.
Any one have a recomendation for Epson R 280? Great videos Jose
Precisioncolors.com or Inkjetcarts. us or well just about any good American 3rd party ink company.
Thank you very much Jose. Thanks to discovering your videos I will now learn how to use my printer properly.
Peace
Greg
Glad to have you aboard!
Hi
Can you help out with DTG printers based on epson p600??
Sorry I am not familiar with the inks used. Also these converted printers no longer resemble the original. I think TH-cam will be your best hope for info.
Jose Rodriguez thank you
Very helpful information!
Thank you!
Hola tengo un canon Mx922 que tinta me recomienda que no sea original por que salen muy caras aca en puerto rico gracias
www.precisioncolors.com
Mira a ver si apollan ese modelo de CANON.
hey
how to extract ink from big 110 cart?
+B jacker You stick a syringe into the exit port and pull back. I have videos showing that.
Jose ,Gracias estoy un poco confundido ,creo que entendí que las printer se le deben comprar algunos ink originales y otros de 3ra compañias ,especialmente los que traen el ink con un aditamento glossy ..podrias explicarme un poco mas en español..disculpame..Bendiciones..Jhon
Creo que te refieres a ciertas tintas magenta que no tienen mucho brillo. Pero ahora las tintas PCK3HD vendidas por precisioncolors eliminated los problemas de brillo. I no tienes que mesclar diferentes tintas.
Really thanks a lot for this nice video
Thanks
I use canon inks because I don’t print many pics and I don’t want a mess.
Ok?
Cool
Thanks.
We have been using the New Compatible Canon HD Inks supplied at The Printer Toner Company, they are amazing. Not sure what the new technology is though you can see them here www.tptc.biz/canon-pgi-550xl--cli-551xl-ink-cartridge-multipack-high-capacity-2-black--3-colour--pgi-550xlcli-551bkcmy---refurbished-8738-p.asp
I don't really know. You are using them? And on what printer? From the look of the set they are for a simple AIO type printer so they would not have to be up to the level of what one would need for feeding dedicate pro photo printers and still match oem.
Hi, Jose, will it be possible for me to contact you on email, I have a question dealing with ink for a printer I got. It's a specialized printer and I am not comfortable give all the details
tooljoe1949@yahoo.com but I have to warn you I have very little knowledge with other than common ink sets used in Photo Printing.
New subscriber here. Thank for the replies.
No problem. Thanks for subbing.
TL;DR 3rd party inks SUCK for important photos.
It depends on the inks. I am using 3rd party inks that are as good or even a bit better in color rendition and accuracy as originals. Where they fall short is longevity but that easy to mitigate.
