Kim,

With hextone printers like the 1270, the dark sepia toner should be in the
magenta position.  The light toner should be in the light magenta position.

The purge pattern you posted looks like the sepia toner is in the yellow
position, with light toner in both magenta positions.

Kim,
If youre using the CFS system, check again that you have the correct
tube/s going from the cartridge to the correct bottles (C to C, K to
K etc.).
