Re: [Digital BW] Dmax Has Dropped - same paper / ink

2006-08-11 by john dean

The 9600 with UC. Epson would much rather you do four or five times as
many head cleanings and throw that perfectly good ink in the waste bin
( so they can charge you to come out and replace it, when you could do
it yourself with the mis chip resetter yourself). But regardless you
have to do some head cleanings.

Actually the channels that I find need cleaning the most are LK,MK,and
LC. The machine doesn't shake as much as the 10k.
