what are the materials needed to refill ink in HP printers?

I am looking for things needed to be able to refill my cartridge in my printer. Of course i already know what type of ink I will use. I was just wondering what chemical to put in the lid where ink comes out so the dried inks can be wiped out. When I was in INKTEC, I saw the sales lady put on some kind of white liquid in the lid of my cartridge and presto the black inks that are dried are now dissolved. I really need to know what chemical is that.. is it water? alcohol?

My Canon printer came without usb cable. Can I use any usb cable with it?

Kisusisu asked:


And actually, does it matter if my cable is USB 1.0 or 2.0? Is it only the speed or are there other compatibility issues. No risk to damage the device?
Many thanks in advance!

Can you suggest a color printer for home use?

JP asked:


I have a P4 PC with broadband internet connection at home. I am planning to buy a color printer, most probably an all in one, which can print, scan and copy. I hope my printing job will consist of documents, graphics and some photos and may be some good pcitures downloaded from the net. I would like to get advice on printers requiring less maintenance cost on ink catridges.I understand lots of new all in one pritners have been marketed recently. Thanks.

What’s the best way to get rid of this old broken inkjet printer?

It’s one of those HP combo units but it’s stuck/ jammed and I’ve tried everything on the website to fix it, no luck, so it won’t do anything except beep now. I already have a replacement, and it’s too cheap to be worth repairing. Just toss it? I hate to do that. Ideas?

What would cause faded/washed out photo copies using a Kodak AI0 5300 printer? (cartridges are new)?


Kodak 5300 printer is producing photo copies that are faded, not true to original colors. I replaced the ink cartridges two weeks ago, so it has plenty of ink. I also used the cleaning option to try and correct the problem.Submited by:AAGI
