Digital BW, The Print

When changing ink types it is always good to run some cleaning cartridges first, that is before introducing the new ink to the print heads. This helps prevent any reactions between the inks. MIS carries a new cleaning solution that seems to work much better then the windex, the product is listed at the bottom of the accessory web page its called MIS-fluid. Soaking the park pad and letting the heads sit in it allows the fluid to wick up into the print heads.

Any problems in a system with a CFS requires you first substitue
original Epson carts to determine if you have a nozzle problem or cart
problem. Otherwise you'll be chasing a nozzle problem when you really
have a cart problem. Your's sounds like it could be a cart problem but
you can tell for sure if it prints fine with Epson carts. Call MIS and
you'll eventually ending up talking to Bob, the owner. He'll probably
tell you to disconnect the cart from the tube, suck out all the ink
from the bottom and bottom refill with exactly 9cc's of ink (for a
1280 cart), let sit for a few hours then try it. CFS carts need the
right amount of air in them. I love my MIS CFS but they can be a bit
quirky to set up.
