Hello, last weekend I really went through hell. I installed a set of UT in my Epson 7500. After filling the cartriges everything went fine so far. I couldn´t get a good nozzle check in the evening so I waited untill the next morning and it seemed that the problem had settled down. So I tried a first printout with Pauls curves wich were not bad. Suddenly after another sheet of paper black ink purged like drops on the paper and the black was nearly totaly blocked. So I did an "initial fill" cycle to get air bubbles out. After many attempts of cleaning and intitial fill cycles I am still not getting a good nozzle check or print out. When I print a "print pattern" from the service menu I can see od horizontal misalignments in the black. These alignments lines behave like declining curves but there are no dots missing. I don´t have any explanation for that. All other inks work fine. Please help with any ideas. Is there a way to get the ebony black working well? I really hope I haven´t damaged the printer. Another thing: I know some people sucking out ink from the tubes with an negativ fill adapter. Can someone give a good description may be with pictures how to do this? Regards, Ingo Meyer
