Re: [Digital BW] Nozzle Clogs on 1280 With MIS VM Cartridges

2003-03-06 by jim hayes

Paul might know the answer to this, I thought he said they are more
dense(?).



My dream system would be UC based all grey inkset loaded into 2200
carts at a reasonable price so I don't have to mess with cart
filling/chip resetting. And minimum of clogging of course.

Meantime I'm glad Paul has something coming out in the UC vein for at
least 1160/1280.
