Canon Ink Level Chips

Hi All,

I have 2 new Canon printers---the MP-600 and the MP-830. If I refill the
carts before they actually get low enough to give me the "low ink or out of ink"
message, will the chips be reset to full, or is the only way to reset the ink
level, to install a new OEM Canon cart ???

True as that statement may be, it's not an answer to his question.

Atlantic Inkjet will be getting recycled CLI8 and PG5 cartridges in
stock this week. The chips are reset, and all functions of the OEM are
intact. Unfortunately there is no reset for the end user available as
of yet, and Atlantic Inkjet is the first to offer this fix. I'm sure a
chip resetter isn't far behind for the end user to puchase, to do it
themselves.

Nobody has been able to duplicate the new Canon CLI8 patented inks. So
now the find used carts, reset them and then put what ever ink they are
selling. I am sure they will not tell you they have duplicated Canon
ink. Canon would not like that.

The inks are NOT patented; only the chip is patented, thus it cannot
be reproduced. Atlanticinkjet has already been selling the CLI8 inks for
home refilling for about 2 years now, I believe.

No, Measekite would not like that. Canon doesn't give a . . .

Canon, and every other printer maker, knows that workarounds, for just
about anything, are the norm in the electronic/software business.

Good for atlanticinkjet.com! I think I'll consider donating some of my
older printers and buying an iP4300 or iP5300 since they come with
CD/DVD printing trays now - in Canada. Apparently those of you in the US
will have to suffer without or simply buy the trays online, like I did
with my iP4000 and 5000.

Thats what you think. Canon patented the formulae. Anybody can make
claims but nobody can duplicated the ink. See if anybody says that they
duplicated the CL8 ink in writing. You will not find it.

There are many who do not give a crap about CD printing. Many are
interested in photos. You are interested in term papers for your high
school.

The ink is not patented and no one has claimed to be making it to
Canon's formula.

Obviously, you're only speaking of your narrow minded needs and point of
view. Note there are also many who don't give a crap about photo printing.

Myself, I am very creative, I do it all. I need a printer that can also
do it all - including CD/DVD printing. Cost of ink is never a factor as
it costs me only about $5 to fill a set of 5 cartridges with inks from
HobbiColors and Atlanticinkjet. I have total freedom to print anything
of any size. The cost of inks should be no more than about 1/20th the
printer price. If they're not, you're paying too much for your inks. At
last check OEM inks were about 3/4 the basic printer price. Good grief!
You might as well just buy a new printer each time and get a free set of
carts!!!!

That is because they do not know how. So anything else you put in a
modern CLI8 Canon printer makes it no longer a Canon result.

I know that it takes brains to realize that Canon sold millions of
printers in the USA that do not have CD capability. Those people do not
place much emphasis on CD printing otherwise they would have bought an
Epson for that feature. Thererfore there are many who do not give a
crap about CD printing.

If you were creative you would want to make sure you get the longest
lasting highest quality photo results that can only be obtained by using
OEM ink. If you goal is quality then you do not talk about cost. What
you are doing is making a compromise but do not want to admit it. You
are will to spend less (kids cannot afford that much) and accept the
results that you get.
