Richard..
I think you would be inviting a "disaster"..not that the re-filling itself
is messy, but you do need to TWIST and TURN those rubber plugs to get a
positive seal..(Not to mention the possibility of LOSING a rubber plug
inside your printer when you remove them!)..I'ts OK to be a "LITTLE"
lazy..but I wouldn't push it....

Just my 2 cents coming from 2 1280's with MIS spongeless carts, and four
(Epson) printers total with CFS/CIS set-ups....BTW..I don't think I'd EVER
go back to the CIS/CFS hassles..I think at least 3 of my printers died a
pre-mature death from EXTRA cleaning cycles/purges/ Windex on paper towels
in the "trough"..Not to mention the AMOUNT of ink consumed in these
processes..

Has any brave soul tried refilling the spongeless carts on an 1160,
1280 or 2200 without removing them from the printer?

I've got some auto-reset chips for the 1280 and 2200, and it sure
would be nice to just top off the various positions with a syringe as
needed without having to pull the carts and re-prime them. Yep, I'm
definitely being lazy ;>)

Just a thought, but I'd be interested to hear if anyone has done it...

Cheers!
Richard
