- Refill Canon CLI-8 Cartridges
- Posted by JimP on May 8th, 2008
Hi
I want to buy a Canon printer (Pixma Pro 9000) that uses CLI-8 cartridges. I
would like
information about bypassing the chip in the cartridge so that the I may
refill and use them.
.. I also need to know a supplier of ink to fill the cartridges
Using new cartridges instead of refilling is just too expensive and I would
not be able to afford doing my own printing.
Thank you in advance for any reply.
Jim

you use Canon OEM ink. But if you put crap ink into the machine you
will no longer have a true Canon printer designed the way Canon did it
and your results will be of lower quality. You also may void the
warranty by bypassing the chip and you could possibly ruin the print
head depending on how much you print. Your results will also be subject
to fading.
You see you do not save anything since you do not get the same thing for
your money. You spend less and get less. It is like if you do not ruin
your printer you certainly are turning it into below a Lexmark.
new CL8 ink and make anything that comes close.
thing to do is to only select your best stuff and then cut some photo
paper to about 3.25 x 4.25 and crop to that aspect ratio. Then edit
your stuff in Gimp or Photoshop or some good editor and look at a small
proof. Then you can print the enlargement.
Hope this helps.

MIS is an Image Specialist vendor as well, but they don't identify the ink
container as Image Specialist. Alotofthings sells Formulabs inks and
identifies the manufacturer. Hobbicolors does not identify the source of
the ink they sell. All three have had very good reviews from people on this
NG and on the Nifty Stuff Forum. Best results will be obtained by using a
custom profile for most accurate color response. I've used MIS ink and am
now using Precision Colors inks for my Canon i960 and my wife's Canon
ip5000. for four years I haven't used Canon OEM inks in these printers
since the first carts that came with the printers.
For lots of info on inks, refilling, and printer problems (whether you use
OEM Canon inks or aftermarket inks) go onto the Nifty Stuff Forum. Most of
the info is about Canon printers. Don't pay any attention to our resident
troll, Measekite, who will follow this post with his total BS about the
evils of aftermarket inks. I've seen his misinformation on this NG now for

You could also try getting these cartridges refilled at your local Cartridge
World. In the UK I get mine refilled by them and they can reset the chip so
I lose no functionality, the ink quality has been independantly shown to be
better than canon's and there is no loss in fading either. The saving is
about 60% against new. I know two high class professional photographers who
use this machine, they get there cartridges refilled at Cartridge world and
also use their photo papers. Do not believe measerkite, this person tells
everyone the same thing but professes never to have used third party inks,
so would not know the difference. Should any third party ink be shownto have
caused damage to the printhead then that would void canon's warranty,
however, you would be covered by Cartridge World's own warranty.

That is not true. If they use Formulabs for all of their ink and I do not know that for a fact it still cannot compare to Canon ink, especially CL8 which is new and patented where nobody has a match for it. Cart World claims to match BCI6
The saving is about 60% against new.
The only way to have savings is to find a source for Canon OEM ink that is 60% less. If you do not get exactly the same things for less it is not savings. Spending less and getting less is not the same as savings.

I have seen the results of 3rd party ink. I have also seen what it does to printers.
so would not know the difference. Should any third party ink be shownto have caused damage to the printhead then that would void canon's warranty,
That is a lie. Read Canon warranty. Basically it says that if a foreign product damages the printer they do not have to repair it under the warranty.
however, you would be covered by Cartridge World's own warranty.
That and 10 cents will not buy you a cup of coffee.

Precision Colors identifies the ink they sell as Image Specialist brand. MIS is an Image Specialist vendor as well, but they don't identify the ink container as Image Specialist.
Nothing is properly disclosed
Alotofthings sells Formulabs inks and identifies the manufacturer.
That is what they say on one section of their site and say nothing on another section. HARD to figure out what they sell. I would not buy from them. There has been a recent post about them and I found it very interesting and the poster really exposed them. It appeared on this ng. I believe what the poster said.
Hobbicolors does not identify the source of the ink they sell.
Tell me about that. I called them up and they refused to tell me what they wanted to sell me.
All three have had very good reviews from people on this NG and on the Nifty Stuff Forum.
That is meaning less since many in this ng are plants for ink vendors and the nifty site is a club for the refillers.
Best results will be obtained by

I never said that aftermarket ink is evil. It fades faster and has a high propensity to clog the printhead if you do not print frequently and most if not all of the vendors do not prominently disclose what they are selling and if they do you never know when they change their source. Additionally the quality is not as good. You never save money because you are not getting the same product as OEM. You may spend less and get less.
If a person is willing to get less and spend less and print frequent enough not to clog the head and are willing to accept the lower quality then maybe that is the route they should take. That is what I am saying. Anything else is false.

One of two things are happening here:

I suspect the latter and not the former.

(snipped Stick's informative responses to Measekite's BS - primarily to avoid including Measekite's purposeful misinformation in my post)
For those of you who haven't experienced over four years of Measekite's blather as many of us on this NG have, please re-read my post. Alotofthings absolutely identifies their Canon aftermarket ink as Formulabs, a well known, highly reputable ink manufacturer. Inkjet inks are only one of their many ink products. Precision Colors absolutely identifies their Canon aftermarket ink as Imaging Specialist inks, another highly reputable source of many types of inks. Having used MIS and Precision Colors inks in the same printers, I can attest to the fact that they give such close results that I do believe that MIS Canon aftermarket inks are, in fact, Imaging Specialist. On the IS web site they are listed as one of their vendors. I've used MIS and Precision Colors inks for several years without custom profiles. The Canon ip5000 photo prints have much more neutral blacks and grays with this ink than in my i960. I've been so pleased with the prints with this ink and these printers that I haven't felt the need to get custom profiles.
I only see MK's posts when they are included in other participants' posts. Like most of us I have them Kill-filed and never see them.

Hi again
I certainly appreciate all the information on where to get the ink for the
CLI-8 cartridges. However, what do I do about bypassing the chip?
Thanks again for any additional info.
Jim

previously shown empty and has been refilled it lets you know that if you
continue to print you will lose your warranty. My Canon printers are
pre-chipped units. I've read, however, that you press a button or two
(someone with the chipped cart printer please jump in) and you can then
continue to print. There are now chip resetters but they are more expensive
than an individual would wish to purchase. There are cart refillers that
are resetting the chip, and the printer will then see it as a new cart.
Your best savings, however, are by refilling yourself.

I translated what you said into what I understand.
You are thanking someone who misinformed you that there is some vendor who claims to have violated the Canon patent and claim to have produced CLI-8 cartridges.
You are thanking someone who may help you ruin your printer.
You are thanking someone for lower quality and increased fadability.
Oh

Hi I want to buy a Canon printer (Pixma Pro 9000) that uses CLI-8 cartridges.
I
would like information about bypassing the chip in the cartridge so that the I may refill and use them. .. I also need to know a supplier of ink to fill the cartridges Using new cartridges instead of refilling is just too expensive and I
would
not be able to afford doing my own printing. Thank you in advance for any reply. Jim

Why do people even reply to that moron? He's obviously a 14 year old with
problems looking for attention. If everyone just ignored him maybe he'd go
away.
