Regarding the cartridges, if you peel back the labels, you'll see a circle in the center of them. You can drill into that and refill them just fine, if the heads are still functional as you pointed out. I used the cleaning solution that came with the refill kits and they appear like new after that, but you might be doing a lot more printing than me. IRDA on Windows 10 would be fantastic if possible - it sounds like you've already researched that exhaustively. If you look at the questions and reviews here on Amazon, you'll see some users talking about using IRDA adapters with the BJC-50, which sounds pretty similar to the BJC-55: I found this post which claims IRDA is now available in the later versions of Windows 10, but maybe you've already seen and tried it? Also, the last post here claims the adapter from Polar works in Windows 10 now (?): Maybe I'll give that adapter a try.

Hopefully between the two of us we'll be able to figure it out:-) I'll update this thread when I've got some new information. Dan, Quick reply to your latest posts..

So far I have not refilled any Canon Cartridges as I have been able to find an ample supply on Amazon (cartridges and the actual printhead: I've found that the printhead tends to plug and become unusable after a time and no amount of cleaning will fix it). As regards connection to Windows 10 machines. My Canon Bubble Jet is a BJC-55 which came with a USB port and an IrDA port; thus, I had no problem using a USB cable to both print and scan. I do have a legacy Citizen PN60 which only comes with a DB25 IEEE-1284 (parallel) port. My Windows 10 machine will happily print to it using an HDE 3FT USB to DB25 adapter cable.
