Re: sending my 1280 in for repair

2005-03-08 by Nick H. Nugent

Hi Allen,

Two things:

1. Storing the CFS. You should first clamp the tubings, then put the
cartridges in a zip lock bag. Set them up in the bag so that in the
event some ink spews out of the outlets they won't get contaminated.
If the tubings are properly clamped it's unlikely any ink will spew out.

2. Purging ... I don't know. If the head must be replaced then it
probably doesn't matter.
