FWIW Lou is a guy the has been in various groups for about 10 years. Lou gets tired of seeing folks who have not even tried to find an answer. Granted: "The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits." - Albert Einstein TJ The search phrase is often just the question. Of course the OP must be willing to invest a little time in reading some of the answers. Lou "For every question there is an answer that is obvious, simple, and wrong." attributed to H. L. Mencken

Oh, wait, I forgot. Canon OEM ink NEVER clogs in Canon printers. Yeah, right. Say, Measekite, I have a marketing idea for Canon, or for any printer manufacturer, for that matter. As their stalwart champion, I'll let you pass it along to them. If a printer OEM is as confident in the performance of their products as you apparently are, why don't they offer free replacements for any printhead that clogs with their OEM ink? Any company that claims to know as much about ink formulation as Canon and the others should easily be able to test the residue in the clogged head for contamination by non-OEM ink, thus weeding out the false claims. If the clog is OEM, the head is replaced. Simple. And it shouldn't cost them much, either. If, as you have implied repeatedly, OEM ink almost never clogs, they won't have to make good on the guarantee very often. But you know they won't go for it, and you know why - even though you won't admit the truth here. The truth is, OEM ink clogs as much as aftermarket ink, and good aftermarket ink is so close to OEM that even the OEM might have trouble telling the difference. TJ

We are in an inbetween period of canon models, between the ip4200 which is no longer available, and the ip4300 which has not hit stores yet. Usually a printhead will run you 2/3ths the value of a new printer, or about the same for a base model on sale. I'm not saying there are not benifits keeping yours in service, only that upgrading can cost about the same... or a tad more. Upgrading usually means higher costs in ink. QY6-049-000 look for that part, though I don't see anything on amazon.com like I once did. There is always e-bay, Try searching for i860 printhead.
From: Shooter on 11 Sep 2006 06:05 I have just purchased one for a IP6600d from the USA cost $78 plus $15 shipping a costly item but for the exchange rate total cost ?51.67 with is very acceptable.
