[Digital BW] Re: Refilling MIS Spongeless

The 1160 has no chip, you can reset it by lifting two little levers.
So I don't have to take the carts out for that reason. Still keeps me
wondering: isit not so that by taking the carts out, you create new
air pockets in the ink outlets (I suppose this is were these air
pockets arise). Thus, is it not better to leave the carts in the
printer while filling, and monitoring the ink level by looking from above?

And do you, as with pre-filled carts, use the "out-of-ink-light" as an
indication that you have to do a refill?
