I don't have that problem with my Canon MG3500 I think I've replaced the ink once in 3 years and I've a son in High school who prints stuff like dead trees don't matter mostly txt but he does do colour printing when he needs to which is atleast once a week and I have no problem using third party inks in the firmware it asked me do I really want to use a third party product and I ticked the Your Damn Right I want to box and away it went printing like it just don't care

I think the regular use is key to successful print jobs. Always been problematic here. But that box... I want to tick it too, cool stuff :D

Exactly. That's why I keep saying to at least print out a test page once a week. If you have a son who prints out images of dead trees once a week, you should be good to go. ;)
