Mike, I had the same problem with the tubing catching under the printhead on my 1280. I had the acrylic arm as far to the right as possible and it wasn't sagging and I still had the problem. I finally solved it by taped a 1\ufffd" piece of 5/8" wooden dowel horizontally to the left side of the black cart. The dowel extended above the top left corner of the cart just a little and held the tubing up just enough to prevent any further problems. I used a single piece of good quality tape, running it from the top of the cart, over the dowel and down the side of the cart. It worked just fine like this for several months. Interestingly, I haven't had this problem with my new CIS in the same printer and haven't had to install the dowel since replacing the older CIS. Tom Keesling Intelligent Design, Inc.
