Thanks.  I bought it new and never so much as unsealed the Epson
cartridges.  Is there any chance that Epson ran dye through it for
quality control or burn-in or anything like that?

BTW, the problem is with PKN as well as Eboni.  And it's weird -- last
night I was getting great BO prints, but this morning I couldn't.

Should I try to clean the nozzles?  I have both "cleaning solution"
and "nozzle fluid" on order from MIS, but I'm not quite sure what I'm
supposed to do when they get here.  :-)  I think I also may have made
a mistake in not buying a cleaning cartridge too ...
