Title: Recycling the plotter maintenance ink cartridge
Post by: ghisirds on June 07, 2008, 06:36:35 AM

HI all
 
I have a plotter Canon W6200 that sometimes force me to substitute the maintenance cartridge.
 
THis cartridge collect the ink that is expelled during print head cleanliness.
 
Seeing that it happens a few to often, one times every two months, i was arguing if there was a wy to recover this cartridge without changing it, perhaps emptying it or resetting its chip.
 
Has someone of you experience at regard or different purchase options?
 
Thank you
