Re: [Digital BW] Refillable carts...why remove them to refill?

2010-08-26 by Michael King

Greg, if you fill them in situ there is a danger that you'll force ink
through the head.
Also I am not convinced that they will reset without removing. I have 2 x
1900 and am yet to find carts that reset as described below - despite
suppliers claiming they do. Let us know how you get on. Mike
