RE: [Digital BW] 1280/UT2: heat/humidity?

2005-09-20 by Paul Roark

Ben,

If there has ever been dye in the printer, rinse the parking pads off.
Eboni doesn't like dye.  My first old 1280 had lots of clogs until I
thoroughly rinsed the parking pad.

The higher the humidity the better.  It's the drying out of the inks that
causes problems.
