Right - that's it, I have OFFICIAL had enough of this epson B1100

[AdamB]

To be honest - I haven't been around for a bit as I'm trying to chase as much business as I can (which in these days is quite hard).

So - it doesn't help with this damn b1100 clogging!

I had a problem about 2 months ago using a ciss system so I bought a NEW b1100 and used refillable cartridges - everything was fine until the start of the week and now I started with a problematic blue to then lead onto all colours blocked in some degree.

I had some cleaning solution that I bought off ebay so used this overnight and ran it through the head a few times and now it's still blocked on a nozzle check (all colours in some degree) and shows as lines on any print outs.

Now, I have ran out of black ink so more's on order together with a different cleaning solution just in case the last one had a shelf life!

GIVE ME STRENGTH I can't even chase business or take any orders now!

Sorry - it was either whinge and wine on here or give the missis both barrels and she has hairier arms than me so forgot that one!

Not a hug buddy - just workable equipment........

...........Hey, i'd hug a horse right now if a fairy would fix my problems!

Well, I wish I had a magic wand but other than saying try the 'clear' windolene to clean the heads or wait till the other cleaner arrives.


I expect to be pulling out my hair in frustration this weekend as I will probably need to clean the heads on a secondhand wide format printer and maybe the ink path before I can see if it works.

What ink you using in the 1100?

What ink you using in the 1100?

Artainium Sublimation ink - always used this to be honest right from the start.

(remember - we can't talk about 'other' sublimation ink)

I've always got ink and just 20 or 30 minutes down the road from you if your ever desperate.

Andrew - you are a true gentleman - thank you

I've got some coming tomorrow (hopefully) and to be honest I'm going home at 5pm as I've been in the shop till 2am the last 2 nights trying to sort this problem out and get other orders out - hopefully it will be sorted ............... hopefully!

But - like I said, thank you for the offer buddy, really, really appreciated

[Andrew]

Not a problem. The offer is always there for any bits and pieces or prints etc that you might need when under pressure.

Good luck with it.
