I had some clogging problems, and then some "just wait a day and it's all better" problems when I setup a C86 vs. an old C84. C86 has been doing well since, but I try to make a few prints every week even if I'm not in "printing mode." But nothing quite like this. I've just ordered a few new black carts, so I'll see how they install and work. I have had my 2200 poop a bunch of (what looks like) black ink on a print, but a 2nd print and the problem just went away. Diagnosing printer problems is pretty much a black art. Someone should post a big web site called "What you *really* need to know about how your printer works and how to fix it yourself." That would be a godsend (but alot of work, I guess). Best of luck.
