[Digital BW] Re: Empty (Virgin) Carts for the 7500 ??

Andy,

Mark is correct. I am currently using a MIS CIS on the 7000. I will 
say that there has been some problems with air infiltrating the lines 
that was coming from the connections between the tubing and the 
backflow preventor. I am not sure if Bob has completely solved the 
problem although I received the newest version about 3 weeks ago and 
it has been working very well. 

The biggest problem that I had was that I initially set the ink 
bottles a bit higher than the printer base and as a result go a 
greater than normal ink flow. This resulted in blobs of ink steaking 
the prints. After a few days of agonizing, we realized what the 
problem and lowered the ink bottles to be level with the printer 
base. That was 2 weeks ago and since then I have been getting 
excellent results.

I still need to run a cleaning cycle every once in a while to clear a 
nozzle, but that is it. I am using the MIS FS inks and the Image 
Print 4 RIP. 

Mike
