Digital BW, The Print

I use these carts from http://stores.ebay.com/Lin-Exports in the R1900 with
Eboni and Cone inks
I have 30 or so carts in use and have never had any significant issues.
You need to follow the correct filling procedure - I create a vacuum.
Very occasionally I've had to also suck some ink with the syringe (no
needle) from the ink nozzle in the cartridge to get the ink flowing through.
