Canon Replaced my Printhead Free!

Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

FWIW, I bought the iP4000 on 5 January, 2005. Yesterday, the BCI-6 black
cartridge stopped printing. No, I didn't run it dry . . . there was about 3-4 ml
of ink in the ink tank of this 3-times-refilled cart.

Running the nozzle check showed everything looking very good except the BCI-6BK.
There was NOTHING (german accent) coming through.

I called Canon and they promised to send a new printhead out the same day.
Because I have a shoot tomorrow and need to proof it quickly, I chose to go to a
local authorized repair station when I waited about 25 minutes and walked out
with a perfectly-functioning printer with a new printhead installed at no cost
to me.

Since there have been a lot of shots taken at Canon for one reason or another. I
wanted to relate a "happy ending" tale.

I am, indeed a "Happy Camper."
