Digital BW, The Print

Well, after cleaning in behind the print head(mopping up) using several thin 
and thick papers I finally have a print without drip marks. Yea, there was 
actually enough ink in excess somewhere to drip and run down the paper. I 
suspect it was some kind of air bubble burping action. Weird! The lines 
already have ink them and adding a refilled cart behind the lines you would 
think the first couple prints would be fine, but this started immediatly 
after the refill. cleaning behind the head didn't help but a second cleanig 
cycle seems to have helped. Nozzels looked good however. Took probably 10 
prints to clear this up. A little nerve wracking when this crap starts 
happining on your 4,000 printer. Probably one of the hazzards of 3rd party 
inks and refilling. I hope it doesn't come back...
