RE: [Digital BW] Eboni - so many problems.....

2003-03-30 by Doug Fisher

>>Both are using the Eboni black and it just clogs and clogs.  Halfway
through a page it
will dump black ink on the edge of the page, or band, or just give up all
together.  I can get a perfect nozzle check and then 2 inches into the print
I've lost it, clogs again... Is anyone still have issues (or successes -
that would be even better news!!!)?<<

Sorry to hear you are having problems but don't give up.  FWIW, I am using
the Ultrachrome VM + Photo Black + CFS system.  It took extra effort to get
the black cart initially charged during installation but it has worked fine
after that.  My system had been sitting unused for 7 days as of this
morning.  I just ran a quick 1/4 inch section of purge pattern to "warm it
up" and then did a nozzle check.  The nozzle check appeared perfect without
any clogs and the purge patterns didn't show any problems.
