Sorry to hear that, Paul. I supposed my 1800 still being ok is that I use it fairly often, and during lulls in my printing I do a nozzle check now and then just to keep the jets open. And I'm sure you've tried Art Entlich's tricks and perhaps a few of your own.

By the way, the test prints I submitted to Aardenburg, the ones made with my 1800 and 3MK, just passed the 70 megalux-hours test. Still doing well...

Been following your work with the WF printers... that may be just the setup for a friend who wants to get his feet wet in digital printing.
I'll stay tuned.

Cheers,

Paul
