Optimally the carts should contain 10-20% air in any CIS/CFS, so the air in the lines is no problem. More commonly, the problem is not enough air in the carts, which can cause bleeding on the paper, or siphoning of ink away from the heads, & more... I am now a convert to the bottom-fill method, in which you can measure the amount of ink that goes in the cart precisely. -BK ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Batzer" <jbatzer2@...> To: <DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Saturday, October 18, 2003 6:36 AM Subject: [Digital BW] Re: New CFS 1160 UT question (pre-vacuumed carts?)... > Thanks Jeff, > > Is this the case even if there's no ink in the tubing?
