Hi Folks, I don't know if it's just me being very unlucky with a bad batch of MIS spongeless carts for my 1160 but don't use the SSC utility to do the cleaning. I recently changed from a CIS with the MIS FS inks to the UT1 to try my hand at printing more neutral when I foolishly clicked on the SSC's cleaning and it ended up sucking ALL of the ink out of ALL the carts. Just a warning. Does anybody have an idea why I wouldn't get a clog (ever) using the CIS but now with the spongeless carts I can't get all of the black (Eboni) jets to fire. I've managed two 5x7 prints in the past 2 weeks and used up about half of my 4 oz bottles of ink. Maybe the FS tone wasn't so bad after all. Thanks, Richard (another one)
