Soaking Technique
Many of us have experience problems with our cartridges (I've only had a problem with Walgreens when they've refilled my color cartridge - they gave me a refund). But not all of us knew we can solve some of these problems with technical support. Some common cartridge problems are:
- Cartridge won't print
- Some colors are not printing
- Print is coming out streaked or faded
- Cartridge is leaking after Refilling.
The soaking technique can help you with most printing problems
Here is how it works:| 1. Fill a disposable bowl or cup (e.g. styrofoam) with 3/4-1 inch of hot water (not boiling) 2. Place the cartridge in the water, nozzle down |
3. Soak the cartridge for 12-24 hours, preferably overnight.4. After soaking, remove the cartridge from the water and dry off the nozzles using a soft tissue or paper towel. |
5. Place the cartridge back in the printer and run a printhead clean.6. Run a test page to determine success. >>> Note * This technique is for remanufactured cartridges ONLY (excluding Epson and Canon). It should not be done with a compatible cartridge. *Thanks Inksell.com (where you can get re-manufactured cartridges.) |
