Digital BW, The Print

After running many cleaning cycles, while trying to get rid of the
banding with the plain paper setting (futile! :) ), I noticed that
this printer wastes ALOT of black ink. So much so that I cringe when I
have to do a  cycle now.  Don't know if its the small carts or the
printer itself, but I wouldn't doubt if 10% or more of the black ink
disapears with each run.

Happy Hollidays
