Re: FAQ - EVERYTHING

Hi Everyone, 

Here are some rules and info for the Nifty-Stuff Inkjet Forum:

1.    No self promotion and/or advertising:  We ask that forum members do not use our inkjet forum to advertise products and services.   
2.    Please maintain a friendly and courteous environment.  We’ve got a great group of people on this forum and want to maintain our wonderful atmosphere.
3.    Before you post questions like, “My nozzles are plugged.” Or “My printer won’t print.”  Please visit the FAQ section and also use the search tool.  Most of these questions have been answered many times over.
4.    If you do post a question, make your subject is as detailed as possible.  “Help!!” isn’t the best subject for a new post.  A better example is, “How do I reset the waste tank on my Canon i860?”  Oh, and always provide details on the manufacturer of your ink and cartridges.
5.    Those of us who respond to your questions are glad to do so.  Please help us help others:  When you finally solve your problem, please post the solution (even if the "solution" was to buy a new printer).  This feedback is vital to the forum and to our problem solving techniques.
6.    Please return the favor of someone helping you by helping others.  Even simple experiences with printing, refilling, photography, etc. is helpful to the group and to the forum as a whole.
