Digital BW, The Print

Hogarth, I followed your advice and shook the carts. After that and 
after making a few "flush" prints, the prints had regained their 
former quality.
So that is it: the pigments drop to the bottom or start to float and 
are not evenly distributed through the fluid anymore. Why haven't I 
read about this before? Is it not a common problem? Or does it happen 
to Sundance inks only?

Thanks for the tip!

Igor
