[QUOTE="videobruce, post: 218337, member: 15617"] This is my 4th printer model. The 3rd I had either 1 maybe 2 replacements. The 4th (current) I had 2 replacements, this time due to fried printheads and/or PCB system boards. What I now know is a known problem due to one ot the other somehow 'shoring out' and taking out the other. At least that is what I have read about it. I don't recall if it is just Canon that has had this problem. I'd bet that is why HP makes you replace the printhead with the ink. Before you or anyone asks, I choose Canon for their user replaceable printhead (unlike Epson which is the worse) and ink tanks that are just that, 'tanks'. No printhead like HP (or at least was that way). To answer the question.[B] ip4300[/B] that replaced a i560 which I really likes, but it became a driver problem (or lack of) with newer O/S's (either XP or Win7) that was a nightmare with the i560 since M$ screwed up with one of their SP's removing a 'helper application/file that that model needed and was not available (easily). [B](And no, I'm not making any of that up!)[/B] But, what I hate about this and all their newer models is the unnecessary (AFAIC) 2nd 'photo' black color. All that does is add cost to the PH and bulk ink. :mad: lastly, this series (I believe there are around 4 or 5 other models in this series) was Canon's first with the 'chip' in each 'tank' that was quickly solved by a 'chip re-setter' designed by a German. :) That is opposed to replacing the chipo in each cart with a modified chip with the next generation models. What Canon is using today I have no idea, I have a couple of spares of this model and spare printheads. I will admit models with larger 'tanks' are a long overdue welcome. [/QUOTE]
