Re: [Digital BW] Clogged Epson 1280

Jim,

Thanks for your message on cartridges for the 1280.  Maybe I need to consider 
filling them myself.  I've still been having some problems with the next 
batch of pre-filled from MIS.  Yesterday, I would get one great 10x14 and 
then if I didn't do a nozzle cleaning, one of the jets would be clogged and 
next print would have to be aborted.  It was very frustrating and after only 
8 decent prints it appears that I'm down to maybe 20% remaining in the carts! 
 I am trying to get my hands on a syringe today, so that I can do the head 
cleaning bit with ammonia....  Maybe that will help.  Halving the cost of the 
ink would be great, though.  I need to log to the MIS site and see what the 
vacuum kit costs.

Bob
