Re: [Digital BW] Comparison of PiezoTones vs. Epson 2200

Jerry,

The original method of filling a CIS was by putting an empty syringe in
through the exit port seal and pulling ink out of the bottles, through the
tube and into the cart. MIS has a little plastic adapter just for this. I
have had to do it a couple of times when I lost vacuum. You can also go
ahead and try pulling a vacuum again. You will get a whole of ink into the
vacuum pump but it can be cleaned up.
