Digital BW, The Print

You might have a bad cart. I use a CFS....MIS-VM and did have similar type
of problem early in the year. You can run separate squares of each "color"
by putting in the numerical value for each color separately and printing. If
they are not the same as a swab taken from the bottle, the color cart might
be split inside. This is what happened to mine.Bought a new unfilled color
cart from MIS, filled it and it has been fine ever since. These carts will
fail sometimes. I was getting irregular nozzle checks also at that time. Did
you run a purge pattern?......bgs

P.S.: I still only use warm water on the pad and on folded Bounty if need
be. It was a promise I made to the owner of the service center. I might be
the only Windex bolter!
