Re: UT "Yellow" Position

2004-05-27 by george_w_barr

John:

I am currently battling the same problem except that my problem is so severe that the 
yellow never functions - currently about 10% of the yellow nozzles work and the pattern is 
consistent suggesting it isn't bubbles. I have already tried the windex on the pad trick and 
next up is windex in the input stem (after removing the yellow UT cartridge), all this on a 
2200.

Odd that the most dilute ink would be the one to clog - unfortunately I clearly don't have a 
solution for you but if either of us does, hopefully he will contact the other.

George
