Re: Low Ink

My Canon i560 will go on for a long time between indicating low ink and the ink actually running out. Last time i changed the cartridges, the ink monitor declared 'the X cartridge has run out', or whatever it says. I just happened to have finished printing, so did not replace the cartridge. Needless to say, when i did some more printing, i had forgotton the message, and interestingly, the ink monitor had forgotten too!! I printed quite a lot more befroe eventually, it did run out.

From this you will have gathered that I run them into the ground before changing them, but I do get another set either just after I change them or as soon as the warning of low ink appears. Although my printer has four cartridges, they tend to run out fairly close together, so I always get a full set then replace them as necessary.
