About C86 refill

2005-05-13 by Henrik Frejborg

I'm sorry to bother you with questions that perhaps should be adressed 
to MIS but...

-One uses a syringe to draw ink from the bottles and injecting into the 
cartridges. Now, does one just use the same syringe with all inks? Or 
does one need a separate for each?

-When drilling the hole into the cartridge, one does not have to worry 
about getting stuff from the hole into the cartridge itself? The sponge 
acts as a filter? No?

-There's been recommendations to have extra carts. Which can be 
practical of course to be able to continue printing with the least 
dealy. But the carts are colour (or rather place) sensitive, are they 
not? So in order to have extra carts one would have to get a full extra 
set? Ie, the resetter does not reset the colour position just the ink 
level sensor? I don't really understand how these chips work (and the 
resetter) I must say.

-There seems to be a high capacity black cart. Would that be the 
recommended cart to get?

That's all for now. I'm still hazy about how exactly the bottom fill 
adapter/priming thing actually works. But I'll return to you on that 
one later. Perhaps when I actually have the goods in my sweaty hands 
and can see for my self things are a bit clearer. I wish!! ;-)

Thanks for your indulgence.
