Digital BW, The Print

I had that on one of the outlets on my 1280 MIS spongless carts. It was 
leaking like crazy. basically the valve was sort of stuck open, because 
when I used the bottom fill adaptor to get the ink to output, the tip 
of the syringe got stuck in the rubber grommet and moved it a little 
bit to the side. I fixed it by wiggling the syringe/bottom-fill-adaptor 
tip inside the hole until it stopped leaking. Keep in mind that while I 
was doing that, the ink was just dripping out of the hole, all over my 
hands and the table/floor/pathway-to -the-sink. It was obvious when it 
was fixed, because the flood shut off suddenly. When I refilled the 
cart last week I was more careful about pushing the tip into the hole, 
and all was fine. I think the tip of the adaptor is too small and gets 
the rubber grommets out of whack. I think I will modifly the the tip 
and try to see if I can get a better design. Basically I plan to sand 
down the tip until it is exactly the best diameter for the hole. I will 
keep you posted. ....Doug M
