Barry,

If you fill cartridges from the bottom, through the exit hole, surely all
the grot in the ink is going to end up on the wrong side of the filter in
the cartridge, and you are then going to rely solely on the very small
filter in the print head to stop that grot from clogging your nozzles? I'm
just beginning to experiment with refilling cartridges (1290 and 2100) and
although I can see some advantages of filling from the bottom, the filter
problem puts me off.
