Well, I very much hope the problem can be fixed.  I have two 
printers and two bottles of the Eboni.  I have another set of new 
carts to try today.  I did pull the ink through in a syringe 
(followed by the usual and an overnighter) and that helped for about 
half a page, then the inks pools up and goes eveywhere.  Cleans up 
OK, perfect nozzle checks again, then halfway through a page, 
banding.
I may be unlucky, sure hope so for everyone else.  I'm well aware 
that you're the pro on this, so if you can get it to work fine, I'm 
back to the drawing board.  In the mean time, my GEN4 black just 
arrived.
Keep us posted.  Thanks

Steve.
