Re: C86?

2005-04-18 by Richard Orban

I've run into some missing ink problems on my 890s that I have learned 
are caused by not having an air-tight fit between the ink cartridge 
where it plugs into the print head.  The head was sucking air - hence 
no ink output - and the ink was able to just siphon out of the bottle - 
I run CIS.  So, pull the cartridge and make sure the missing color has 
an air-tight fit with the head unit.
