Re: [Digital BW] 3800 disappearing ink problem solved?

Hi David:

Inkrepublic was very good to me as a matter of fact. They sent me two  
or three bottles of ink to compensate for my troubles. Also when I  
first got the cartridges, one of the chips they provided was  
defective, so they sent extra cartridges gratis. Their support was  
pretty good.
