Re: Changing 2400 Carts With the Printer Off

2006-10-19 by Steven Karafyllakis

Hi Tom;

Have you tried pulling the plug right after you turn it on? If the head 
stops anywhere except on the parking pad, you should be able to move it 
manually. This works on the R1800, and they share a lot, it should at 
least keep the printer from doing an ink-charge cycle which eats up a 
lot more than just a cleaning cycle. I've taken to refilling all the 
carts everytime one gets low, so I avoid the domino effect caused by 
cleaning cycles to get the new cart printing right again.
