Helene,

Give Bob a call at MIS.  I was testing it, but I'd think he would sell them.
We didn't know if the "T" junctions were re-useable, but I've now re-used a
set 10 times with no problems.

into the hole in the cart.  Another short tube from this junction goes to
the vacuum pump (like the CIS unit).  You pull a vacuum, crimp the tube to
the pump, stick the sharp needle of the syringe full ink through the soft
plug, and the ink gets pulled out of the syringe into the cart. >>
