Digital BW, The Print

My experience has been that the more you play with them, the worse you make
it.  The ink foams easily, which you want to avoid at all costs.
My best results have come from turning off the printer; filling/priming ala
Roark, and parking them for 30 minutes or more before turning the printer
back on. (R200, 2200)

Best regards,
John Moody

Matt, your experience is very interesting as I find that LM has been
the offender for me as well (though, oddly, in the auto clean/test
cycle LM printed perfectly and LC was the problem...then it flipped
back to LM being spotty as the test progressed...glad I'm buying this
in bulk :-))

I do them one at a time so not sure about the drying out hypothesis.
I'll try Paul's suggestion of repriming the carts (tonight I'm just
going to refill and reset all of them).

A question: if the little rubber stopper for the fill hole does not
form a perfect seal, what would the effect be on printing? too much
ink flowing?

thanks

Jerry
