Digital BW, The Print

There do seem to be more problems with the 1280 than the 2200.  The pigment
printers do more automatic cleaning cycles, but I think there may be another
major factor.  A number of the 1280 cart batches appear to have been
troublesome.  And on a bad cart, the ink just will not release ink properly
in one or more ink positions.  What I've been having do not appear to be
clogs.  When I get one that shows this characteristic in a color spot, I
just give up on the cart.  

I hope to get some of the new sponge-less, easy-refill ones this next week.
We'll see how they work.
