I used the

"10 cc Terumo Plastic Syringe"

fitted with the

"MIS Bottom Fill Adapter"

found at

http://www.inksupply.com/index.cfm?source=html/accessory.html

The adapter is inserted into the bottom exit port of the problem cart in the
CIS/CFS. There is a rubber seal in the cart which will help form a vaccuum
when pulling on the syringe plunger. If all is well ink flows freely into
the syringe through the CIS/CFS tubing & cart.

Good luck, Igor.
