[Digital BW] Re: CIS and CFS carts

2002-11-24 by K2 Chittin

Thanks Bo and Murray. What started out as a question of curiosity
may well end up being far more beneficial!

I was doing some research on the latest on the CIS front for some
colleagues here in Europe. Now I might recommend that they just make
their own CIS. The question is, for someone who is technically and
DIY savvy, how complicated is it? I presume you

1. Clean out old Epson carts
2. Drill holes in the top of each colour chamber
3. Glue the little tube fittings and attach the tubing
4. Suck the ink into each chamber with a bottom fill adaptor

Do you even need to perform step 1?

I have enough printers and CISes so I won't be attempting this
surgical procedure anytime soon myself. :)
