Heise: Canon-Printer with "Date of Decay"
«Yesterday, in this way German ZDF-economic broadcast "WISO" reported about the case of an owner of a
BubbleJet 600. This spring the four years old device started printing out the warning tank of remaining ink would
be full soon after each printed piece of paper. After a little time the printer claimed remaining tank being full
and finished work.
The ingeneer looked after but neither tank nor absorbing felt has been soiled particularly. To be on the safe side
he cleaned everything - but in vain. Printer didn`t start working again.
According to WISO Canon-hotline confirmed the printer has been provided with a counter for the drops of ink given
off which stops the device as a precaution after 15000 pieces of paper printed out (depending on the kind of printing)
- independent of the fact if the catching tank actually was full or not. The broadcast did find out BubbleJet 600
can be persuaded starting its work again by holding the keys "Power", "Form Feed" and
"Print Mode" while putting in the main plug and switching on the printer.«
