Canon BubbleJet printers not printing after cleaning
(From: Handy (handy@redshift.com).)
Take out the cartridge that you want cleaned. Find that hole that ink comes out of, squeeze the cartridge until ink comes out of that

Why are red, blue, and yellow inkjet primaries?
For a subtractive printing process, the ‘optimum’ primary colors for a 3-ink system would be closer to magenta, cyan, and yellow. However, these are not generally used. Why?

The people who talk about clogging, etc. must have never seen a BJC-620, in which the printhead and ink tanks
are separate. I’ve had a 620 for about 16 months and having printed almost nothing on it (have a laser for most

The original ink jet printer of this type was the Teletype Inktronic, which introduced the concept of video-type distortions to printing. It appeared around 1970, and was so bad nobody tried again for years.
(From: Tony Hardman (AHED_CIJ@f54×19.demon.co.uk).)
